No, that's factually incorrect. He recently posted a long post detailing why he thinks everyone managing the coin sucks. This is both unprofessional and very juvenile. Furthermore he's accused everyone involved to be part of a massive conspiracy to manipulate the price and using fake accounts to attack him. He's also threatened numerous people, myself included, to an extent that legal action could be taken. This is quite delusional and shows that he might not be at a good enough place emotionally where he can manage a project of this size. He has attacked members of the core team for a long time now, and they have either ignored him or responded very professionally. Actually seeing their response, or lack thereof, has made me quite confident in their ability to manage the coin. Staying professional and level-headed when attacked is something very important in the business world.

Again; I do think IE could contribute a lot on the PR side because he obviously knows a lot about that. But every contribution there is irrelevant when mixed with all the hate and conspiracy. Just look at this thread; 1/3 of the posts are his own, 1/3 are people who are barely literate, 1/3 are people who argue with him. It's just not a good base to build upon. I mean, this thread is supposed to be about PR, but almost all of his posts here are him insulting people.

He wants to take a business approach to everything, so imagine if Bill Gates spent 12+ hours a day on the Microsoft forums getting into petty fights, threatening people and calling members of his board incompetent. It's just not feasible, no successful businessperson would ever do that. I hope he realized this, puts the ego aside and starts to do as he preaches.

To IE: Sorry if I've insulted you in the past. You're obviously under a massive amount of stress and I hope you consider taking a few days off to cool down and then come back with a more positive outlook.
