Hi John, I am the guy, and I'll answer your remarks point by point:

Recently visited this site and I would not recommend it. It appears to be set up and run by a guy who not only poses the questions but answers them himself. |
The site has been setup less than a week ago. At the begining, a site is by definition empty of data. As a webmaster and creator of numerous sites, forums and social communities, my role is to give the boost needed for takeoff. So nothing surprising I guess the first posts are mine. When you'll create a site, you'll realize that to put an empty site online is not a good idea.
And he awards points for doing so. Guess who has the most points? |
The platform I am using is based on user engagement and points are awarded to users who participate the most. Again, that in the first days, I have more points than other members is reassuring, that's a sure sign I have no been spammed by ficticious users. You'll notice that since your remarks here, some users are starting to contribute in a positive way to the site and one at least has already gained half of the points I have, unfortunately, it's not you.
Although he claims to have a lot of experience with AutoCAD he doesn't seem very knowledgeable. |
As I said to you, I have 30 years of experience with AutoCAD, as drafter, trainer, book writer, LISP and .NET programmer. I am also AUGI France webmaster. And yes I know the difference between BLOCK and WBLOCK if you see what I mean.
He misuses terminology and misspells it too. |
I am not an english native speaker. I apologize for any mistakes. If you encounter any, I'll appreciate you report them to me directly instead of doing that on other sites, that would be more honest and polite.
Example: in talking about the X, Y and Z directions he calls them "plans" not "planes". |
Thanks for pointing that, I'll correct it. This mistakes comes from the fact that in french the word is "plan".
When he can't answer a question posed by one of the other 40 or so registered members he either leaves them blank or gives a half-assed answer like "This is explained in AutoCAD help" or "see Wikipedia" or "This goes beyond the purpose of this site. You are asking for a small development." What good is an AutoCAD question and answer website if it blows off your question, gives a lame response, or won't provide examples? |
I already told you yesterday why, when you repeatedly spammed my site. General questions everyone can find an answer to by hitting the F1 key in AutoCAD are not the purpose of the site. The site is not a copy of AutoCAD help, this is clearly indicated in the FAQ.
I give acadclass two thumbs down and a Bronx cheer. AutoCAD users have better resources available to them than this bogus site.
