The reasons why are of no concern to me
i don't really care "why" MH acts abusively sometimes. its doesn't matter to me. i could come up with all kinds of theories, doesn't matter. it happens, and in my opinion, it shouldn't. plain and simple, end of story, it should not happen.
as far as "groupies" goes. yes i can see that might be insulting. but when some people defend ALL of MH's behaviour regardless, then they are acting like groupies and so i call them that. not to say all the regulars there are groupies, certainly not. but it seems that for some poeple MH could not possibly do any wrong, thats not a healthy attitude to have.
i have NO problem with MH selling products, or anyone else for that matter. he may do a hard sell, and do it in an emotionally manipulative manner, but oh well, he believes in the products, so he pushes them. don't have a problem with that, never did.
i don't visit the MH forum, and don't start any trouble there, but when the subject comes up i will add my two cents, which is that he should be more respectful of posters, thats it.
