Well now, hang on just a minute. The two most recent instances are one thread where someone was giving praises to Steve Becker, and several followed only to have Ian rudely hijack taking the praise away from Steve and placing it towards another vendor. Another FB regular called him out on it. I know I kinda felt uncomfortable when I read what Ian posted, however I did not say anything. I suspect others shared the same sentiment.
Another situation came up today when someone spoke of rebuilding a cross shaft and wanted to know the measurement the shaft needed to built up to. Immediately someone posted to use split bushing to which I and several others explaned why these were inferior to the original design. This countered what Ian's opinion was, so apparently he had to come forth and defend his opinion. Because folks have stated their opinions that apparently he does not agree with, we are now called Morons, and he feels the need to go participate elsewhere.
I too hate it for Ian, but surely he knows what is best for him, and if he feels he needs to go somewhere else to participate, who are we to argue with him?
