Why can't you speak to your popularity or talent? We all have egos to some degree.
You don't know if you lost any clout? Well, I think my point was that 'Roger T Pipe' had certain marketability that was lost. Now, you're just like everyone else...a reviewer with no noticeable personality - a contrast to what you once were. But hey, that's my opinion.
More traffic? Means nothing amigo. The real question: is it making you more money?
I never said you were the king...just had potential. Who the fuck is Den? Does anyone outside of the grey, dull ADT walls know?
What did you give away? Read above.
Misconceptions? Sure, I'd be the first to admit if I were wrong. I'll also tell you here and now that a bit of my opinion comes from my assumption that you're doing this for profit. If I'm right, I just don't see how working with them will make you more money. If you do it for free, well then none of this matters.
Feud? No Roger, not with you. Not at all. In fact, I'll say that at least your worth a squirt of piss for having the nuts to come to this bored and post under your regular handle. Most of them are stupid sheep and afraid to do as you do.
Again, I just find it odd that you more or less sold your brand name away.
