I wouldn't associate with anyone that actively tried to manipulate information solely to benefit themselves. So if you're in the mood to question someone's motivation, why don't you question mine.
Everything I do is based on research, factual information, and statistical analysis. I don't post anything here or elsewhere that isn't based on some kind of quantifiable data. Yes, Merge has made a lot of questionable decisions - call them out, call them to the carpet, and I applaud it.
Outside accountability is my thing, sir. But a little respect and use of something other than "oh, he must be shilling" isn't uncalled for here - because when you say that, you're basically saying the same thing about me. And while Kahn might simply utilize ignore features, I'm a little more hard headed at times with the need to defend things I feel need to be defended.
There's plenty of people in the industry out for nothing but themselves - but I give you my word (if it means anything to anyone...I like to think I've built a decent rep here) that Kahn isn't one of them.
