1.) Volunteered multiple years at the convention
2.) Donated great chips to the Club Auction
3.) Provided history and insight to the California section of CG. Worked with admins on corrections and oversights
4.) Been a due paying member for over 8 years

I will be critical or approving as often as I see fit. You run CG like a tyrant and you don't ever take accountability for mistakes..always doubling down. From you criticizing Oscar for supposedly "promoting fakes" to your "It Finally Happened" post about a fake chip that turned out to be made by our very own President of the CCA and his company. Have you ever apologized for either? If you call people out in public then you should apologize in public. Your penchant for public outcry then ask for private resolution is well known.

I stand by every one of my critiques -

1.) Chipguide does not own a derivative of submitted photos and a new copyright to enforce. That said everyone should make an effort to cite CG whenever possible as common courtesy.
2.) Chipguide submitters have been submitting stolen photos and there should be a better way of handling these. A checks and balance is needed.
3.) A change in leadership and direction is also needed

I will be civil on these boards. Perhaps you should reflect back on your tirade against Rich Burgel and his character before you again start throwing stones. I am sorry you see my opinions of your efficacy as unwanted criticism...but you are truly dividing the hobby in half with your lack of social skills and overall attitude when it comes to anything negative towards CG. Make no mistake, NO ONE has issues with any of the hardworking people at MOGH or CG...it's JUST YOU.

And for the record you DO NOT get to tell US who pay dues, write content, and offer our intellectual property not to ever be critical of MOGH or CG. Now if you want to return my paid dues, photos and info submitted I will gladly never write another word on Chipguide or MOGH. That is a promise.

I'm sure you will cower from debate as bullies often do. You pontificate then run away and go radio silent. This is Your M.O.
