Ok so now you have to state exactly who it is you talk to at Warner. If you don't want people to know then you don't post about it. You also need to post how you know that person.
Dude, get your own Damn forum if you want to start telling everyone what to do!!
No one here has to answer to you!
He doesn't have to post who he talks to, he needs to prove himself to a mod which I think I saw a post that he did just that.

Your arrogance & attitude are really starting to mess up a good forum.

No the rules state you have to post who/where/what/why for a post about information that normal people can't get.

It's actually rather genius of Andrew and Co. It stops people from posting who can't reveal sources. For those who do it provides all users with exact information and knowledge and the accuracy of that knowledge. For instance he could be getting his information from a PR person at Warner or he could be getting it from a VP. It does matter what the difference is.

This new rule allows all users to see for themselves exactly where the information is coming from.

It's a good rule.

All you see is what you want to see & it is not your place to reprimand someone you have been arguing with, the mods will take care of that so maybe you should take care of yourself instead of worrying about someone else.
Sorry I didn't scroll down.

It still doesn't mean he can call the guy a troll. He can very politely say it wasn't him without assuming the guy is a troll.

I guess that's why you quit posting your info then?
Since that rule went into effect I haven noticed you telling us what "an engineer" or "an academy award nominated director" told you.
Why is that??

But once again, leave it to the mods to call him out, you have no authority to do so.

Yea it helps to have the facts before calling someone out.

But once again it's not your place to be trying to enforce the rules, especially with someone you've been arguing with, it just makes you look petty & vindictive.

Besides that, what would you call someone who's first & only post is bashing someone??
That sounds to me like someone making up a new forum name to "troll & bash" someone without getting themselves in trouble since they had been warned against doing that.

You like to make a lot of stuff up. Please quote the post where I've said that Amazon's sales are insignificant.

I think you'll find what I've said was that Amazon sales rankings are largely irrelevant because they do not point out unit sales. For instance, the #2 disc could have sold 5,000 more copies than the #3 disc in the last hour, or it could have sold 1 more copy.

Please don't insinute or put words in my posts that are not there - you do this too much.

As for the Warner post, Andrew has access to check my sources as I have offered to forward him any e-mails as long as they are kept confidential, but they are not from a press agent or PR person, they are from someone very high up the chain.

Moose is telling it like it is and he's right. Sorry if you feel that your parade is being rained on.

I'm about to post as well where a lot of the misinformation about Disney releasing on HD DVD and doing TL51 encodes has come from, because it is total misinformation and has shown one of the biggest members of the HD DVD Propaganda Group to be exactly that - a total shill. Can you guess who it is? Of course, rdjam; also known as HD NOW, also known as Campaign HD HQ.

I'll be right back.
