Given that you're casting aspersions in a for pay thread, it's interesting that you're calling anyone else a fanboy. Really.

Justin was making a factual comparison between the Pico Slim and another amp. I have no idea where you interpreted "sour grapes" from.

Also, having met Justin in person several times now, I would say he's one of the last people I'd expect to have an ego.

Hey All,

Let it go! It was two pretty harmless posts taken out of proportion.

We all know where everyone stands. Lets just leave it now.

It's weird to be so defensive about a simple question.

In the end, it's all about the beautiful, beautiful music. Listen and be well.

So in other words the one who pays for a thread can do anything he want's in that thread, at least if he happens to have the right friends. Interesting.
I feel a ban comming my way ...

I think you misunderstood my post. I was not saying anything bad about a competitor. I was pointing out that you are talking about comparing two very different designs with two very different problems they try to solve.

The person who pays for the thread can do what he likes within reason, no matter who his friends are. And given that he was posting a legitimate question and you've gone off the deep end...

Fair enough. Apologies all round. I will not say any more.

Well, to be fair, it probably was unnecessary for you to a) publicly announce your cancellation (although it can be hard to confirm that Justin received a PM or email) and, more particularly, b) write a rave about a competitor's amp in a paid MOT thread. I don't know why you would be banned for that, though, as similar things happen in other MOT threads. But I think it's reasonable to anticipate some negative reaction when you do that.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't mean to re-fan any flames, I had my window open while nc posted it seems. I'll leave my post though.
