Um, yeah, and I think your bikes are always the same...Nyehh.

But seriously... Adrian, my jaw dropped when I read this (above). Sorry to jump in here out of the blue, but your post sounds really mean regardless of whether it’s true, which I doubt it is. Maybe I’m biased, being a huge fan of Eric’s work (and yours as well, for that matter) and so I love seeing new iterations of older ideas. As MarkN pointed out, Eric has made numerous improvements.

Why the negativism? It seems to me that it only hurts other people when you post purely negative commentary. I’ve always hated the phrase “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all,” but maybe there’s an ounce of truth in it?

If you’d said something like that about one of my MOCs, I’d feel pretty hurt.

Seeing this here, I’d also feel less welcome in posting new MOCs in this group. I think you should think about that a little bit.

Peace out, --Todd

I mean, you're not even a frequent build.mecha poster, so I don't understand why you felt compelled to reply to his particular post. It just came out of the blue. Same for (...)
