Sean has no interest in making the DI community a vibrant and positive one. He wants everybody to be just like him, miserable, angry and insecure.
Instead he made the forum His Kampf, where there's only one opinion, his own. The rest - can go fuck themselves. Hence the intimidation, oppression and banning on a large scale.
It had so much potential, and things could have been handled differently. He does it all on purpose, stirs shit, manufactures the drama, he thrives on conflict, gives his life some meaning I guess. It was confusing and sad to see many of the good posters just disappear, people that made valid points, good people (thank fuck that most of them are here now)
I have no respect for Sean. He is a proven LIAR, and a cunt. I do think he is manipulating DI.
David is a bit on the sycho side, he's got blinkers on, he doesn't see what's in from of his eyes. I think both Sean and Gareth are taking advantage of him. I dunno. Just playing the devil's advocate again. However David's reaction and his skype rant makes me think that maybe he's not that innocent.
I was neutral for years, but I did respect him as a researcher. He's brilliant as a researcher (though not original) but he lacks personal communications skills. I think he should stick to what he does best, talk on the stage, write books for whomever is willing to buy them, keep his life PRIVATE. All this TPV publicity has done him no good. He should really get rid of his dodgy mates. The nepotism is really a turn off. It started a few years back when he started featuring Gareth on the front page (well, Sean did).
Those 2 are the moles, they are the sabotagers. Sean is not to be trusted. It was a mistake to put him in charge of EVERYTHING.
TPV doesn't stand a chance as long as he's in charge. I feel sorry for the people that still hold some hope and keep giving them money. They are the ones deceived.
I thought it was a bit odd when they said that the TPV youtube had been hacked. All the content dissapeared except for the appeal video.
And when Fear&Clothing got done over I thought - "Hang on - that's not ethical'. Just one thing after another, drip drip drip.
Some poor sod on DIF has just said he's scraped the bottom of his savings account and it makes me feel so sad. But I think this latest stunt will backfire. After Davids ' I had to go home 'cause Im ill & I need yr money rant loads of ppl felt sorry for him and coughed up more dosh, but I don't feel like that's happening this time. I agree with you on who are the sabatours. Hopefully TPV will implode soon.
But not before I get my online Q&A with David Perk I hope - I want to ask a pertinant hard hitting question
