So, it seems Rijk and his dad are preparing a court case and I'm asked
to distance myself from RichPissman. I could put a pointless, single line
claim here, but I don't do that, as it isn't my style. I thought I've
always been very clear towards my stance regarding Gulden en Rijk, which
partially overlaps with RichPissman's opinion. This is due to my history
with Rijk and Gulden in general.
I have no issues with Gulden and and have said it before multiple times that
Gulden in essence is a good idea and I would love to see it succeed. Yet, I
don't agree that the path chosen in the past few years is the right one.
In this part I disagree with Rijk and the dev team. We had and probably still
have different opinions about that. Also, how I saw how he managed things
it became clear to me that he and I have quite different personalities and
those would collide. Currently, I don't see myself cooperating with him or have
the need to have Rijk as a friend.
So far the things that I and RichPissman most likely have in common. My sayings
and actions come from the background described above, not because of RichPissman
or anyone else on the forum.
As for the way RichPissman expresses himself, I personally would never do it in
such strong words. Again, not my style. I always try to have discussions on the
subject that is being discussed and matters, not on a person himself. If
however a person does something that I don't agree with, I have the freedom of
speech to say something about that. This person is free to respond and explain
his actions. In this I always try to respect the person himself, whether this is
Rijk, RichPissman or anyone else.
In the last thread i posted my final post i would post on this forum about Gulden, but this post of BioMike needs me to respond one more time.
I am only a Gulden hodler for little over a year, and even shorter active on this forum. I never really agreed with BioMike and let him know that in some responses. In several of my posts i also stated that i respect his opionion and the way he outs it on this forum. It is sad that he is threathened with legal action. That being said it looks like legal action is more about RichPissman , who might share certain views similar to Mike, but is outing that in a total different way. Potentially breaking the law (slander). If i would be a business owner and both my company name and my personal name would have been abused the way Rich Pissman abused Rijk/Gulden, i would 100% press legal charges to the person (if i would find out their real name). Because you have freedom of speech, that doesn't mean you can say everything.
