  • I don’t think you deserved to be downvoted.

    I think you just might have misunderstood what I was saying, which is fair because I have little context.

    I just meant that the criticism isn’t levied at the individuals, but at a company that’s pushing content out to sell you things.

    So, while I’m sure in many of these contexts an individual shared partial responsibility, the criticism is leveraged against the company as a whole in this circumstance since I’m not going to pretend to understand what’s going on internally.

    Appreciate the comment!



  • I find some of the stuff they do entertaining, but have always found the technical information pretty… lacking and sometimes outright wrong. Seldom do they focus on what an item is engineered to do and instead just slap something together for content.

    The billet labs stuff doesn’t surprise me for those reasons, but i feel like the GN focus on it just brings their incompetence to the forefront and made what I already suspected that much more visible.

    I’m sure there are plenty of great people that work at LMG, but this ain’t about people at an individual level. It’s about a company that is literally built to sell you stuff. Whether it’s through sponsor spots, float plane(services), or through their own store. I’ve always felt their message was high and mighty and rang a bit hollow.

    For their sake, hopefully they actually improve on the technical aspects and are able to endure not because I care about them, but because I don’t think this will actually mean anything once the drama is gone.

    I’m sad about the Madison stuff, not because I care about LTT, but because working in that type of environment and watching your “heroes” not only implode but actively harm you has to be one of the worst experiences I can imagine.

    My heart goes out to her.
