The best was when Pan tried to claim he came up with the Merlin mix of Eco and reload. I think he went as far as saying carpro was a ware it was his idea when they released exiler.

Call to Ban YouTubers
There is one hidden element that is most disappointing about YouTube “detailers”: They use forums like autogeek to harvest content.
Certain product combinations, techniques and ideas are dead giveaways.

LOL. I've been mixing those as my "Blue Juice" since the first bottles of ECH20 were shipped.
Pan puts together decent videos and clearly has a following but he has zero connection to the public IMO.
Uses forums to drop his links is pretty much all he does. I'm on 3-4 major forums and he is a mirror on all of them.

When you watch our LIVE detailing class videos - anytime I share something I learned from someone else - I give them due credit.
I never borrow, use or steal other guys stuff and present it as my own.
That's m personal practice.

Mike, you are the nowhere in the same galaxy as the guys who drop videos and disappear. If anything, you’re probably the reason that members of this forum expect honest, informative opinions and feedback within the forum.

Let's just hope this one stands as a consensus of how the majority of us 'Geeks feel.
I was in the eye of the hurricane of those threads with Pan that got removed, and I have zero regrets. Even though those threads got a bit out of hand, I think it was a little overdue.
As a guy who tries my hardest to help out others any way I can, I really felt compelled to voice my feelings.
I am just a hobbyist, and I do not have even half the answers to most questions on here.
But, I always try and help when I can if I have any experience and/or a valid opinion. I also read just about 99% of all threads/responses even if I cannot comment intelligently. Just so I may learn from others, and maybe recommend to a new guy that (MEMBER X) might be the best guy to talk to..... (Shut up, Bob...... )
That said, I had very strong opinions about the YT "Bomb for $$ then bolt" threads/vids. Most of these members do NONE of the things I mentioned above, and this is in no way the atmosphere or spirit of AGO.
JMO.........
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
