I believe that what you are trying to do requires voluntary help of senior members,and that it should be organized and public,so,for example,instead of having to reject that specific proposal I could suggest an alternative evaluator from the public list,and this will help everybody in reaching a conclusion about the specific product.
I believe that most commercial products are not worth the price ,BUT that you can find some gold in the rubbish,and that the people/companies selling a product in which they believe,should be glad to have a public evaluation from a forum member since this will lead for better commercial results,and,probably will result in some product improvements too.
Now,the particular case of this thread..You have said and written more than once that you wanted the respected members of this Forum to have some sort of commercial potential if they wished to,in a clean environment,so,you are cleaning the environment,and that`s ok ...I believe that,besides your particular opinion of the personal style of Igor(mine is slightly positive with lots of understanding of what does it mean to be subject to constant attacks),he is a Senior Member with 639 posts,several threads open where he has invested lots of time helping others for free,his public systems might or might not be liked but even people criticising him(most of them) agree that he is not a scammer and that the main critic(besides the personal issues) lays in the systems not being profitable enough versus being very profitable...SO,in my book ,he is a respected member of our community,just the kind you wouldn`t want to lose..and,if he posts his excel sheets,daily or weekly,with his results..and there is no disagreement by any of the members of his group ..he should be allowed to do so in the commercial thread.
I believe that it is not the same case when you evaluate a total stranger of this Forum,than when you evaluate somebody that has shown a previous committment and whose defects and virtues have been exposed for everybody to see..In my opinion,as long as none of his members disagrees with his excel results..they are valid
BTW,I have no vinculation whatsoever with Igor,besides sending him a pm once giving him my moral support which he politely thanked
Regards
Simba
