Which would mean you support him even if this whole Alpha Blade thing is a scam, etc. Even if he came out and admitted the setbacks were false... By your own admission, you would still support him.
Wow.
People are making way more out of all this than needs to be. This has been blown way out of proportion.
First, I do believe that DLD was hurt, especially since SWM vouched for the story and I have a lot of respect for him. Second, to be totally honest, I not not what you would call super-hyped about Alpha Blade. Sure, I'll check the stuff out and may purchase some of the products, because I keep an open mind about being able to further my knowledge from many different places. However, I as an individual am an extreme rationalist in many ways and I'm not a postive thinking/mind over matter kind of person and it seems as though that is a key component of AB from what I'm speculating. And I'm not knocking the positive thinking either, as I know many people have completely changed their lives from a change of thinking. I'm just pointing that out to say I'm not here with the mentality of defend AB at all costs. It is whatever it is, and I don't know exactly what that is.
Hypothetically, so what if DLD
actually did completely fabricate this injury? What if for some reason he ultimate would decide to scrap AB altogether? Well, the first scenario would be a poor error in judgment and the second scenario would be a major disappointment. What does that mean? The man is a total scammer, crook, thoroughly discredited, etc.? No, to me it means he made a mistake or a serious misjudgment of what he could get done, realistically. I wouldn't sugarcoat it, but I wouldn't throw the guy to the wolves either. Does that invalidate everything else the guy has done, including helping me put about another inch on my cock? No, this forum has been awesome for me. Does that mean he really owes anything to anyone? No, he's human and mistakes can be expected out of him, like all of us. I'd be willing to bet that most of DLD's strongest critics (not necessarily on this thread, but in general) never joined his paysite, purchased any
MOS product, or donated anything, and some people here act as if the guy has an obligation to fall on his sword at your every demand.
I know DLD is not a divine entity that can meet the expectations of everyone. Yes, sometimes he gets backed up and is slow to answer his PMs. Sometimes things like Power Assists get behind on their production runs and haven't been available when anticipated in the past. I think it stems from a natural optimism that is a strong part of Mike's personality. Maybe he does sometimes think he can get more done than he is able to do. Mike treats this is more of a passion than a business, it seems to me. Surely, most of DLD's critics have no idea what it is like for one guy to try and maintain all this while trying to develop new stuff.
Whether Alpha Blade was intended to come out on 1-1-06, 1-16-06, or gets pushed back to 8-1-06 for whatever reason has nothing to do with what Mike has done to this point and his core expertise to this point, which has always been Penis Enlargement.
This either/or mentality that some seem to be showing that a person is either a "DLD cultie" or must acknowledge DLD to be a scam is stupid. How bout just being sensible and looking at things for what they are. Shit happens, no matter how big or small and where it came from.
