He can still be communicating. He can feed us all the sweet lies that you'd like to hear. But in the world that existed before crowdsourcing platforms, it wasn't possible to get by just from blowing smoke every now and then. Even with elaborate smoke and mirrors, sometimes you still need to actually produce results.
I'm not exactly jaded enough to think that he's done absolutely nothing since the last update, but results speak for themselves and do so far better than any social media can. At the end of the day, what's this current message boil down to?
He's just given a sugar coated excuse for:
- Not having anything tangible to present
- Not having been in communication for awhile (EG: "Just checking in!")
- Taking his current services offline
and you're eating it up. Mind you, I'd find his post a lot more acceptable
if he had brought something to the table within the past 18 months, but at this point it's just all talk.
I try to temper my frustration at this nonsense by reminding myself that he did actually come up with the idea and execute it at one point. There's no fucking integrity in stringing people along indefinitely, though.
