It was heading in that direction. Just BS after BS from a certain few. I think they're following Max around He is doing a great job btw.

Judging by the pro-HD-DVD bias on AVS & HDD it actually worked rather well, he just failed to reach a large enough audience.

I'm not even sure about that. He may have riled up the gamer and anti-Sony community to post aggressively in the HDM forums, but I don't think he reached that many people really interested in HDM.

John Galt stated it correctly.

He (Amir) failed to reach enough people to make his lies overcome the masses who used their wallets to set the market for HDM.

Possibly Microsoft viewed him as an embarrassment.

Good riddens Amirm you Lying dud-fudder

He's the liar who got me suspended over there for 7 days. Then those losers over there at AVS removed a bunch of my posts from the thread, when I called him on his lies, and PROVED it with his own words and quotes.

When I called out Amirm, they banned me for 7 days, then had the audacity to leave his lies in place. Hypocrites, big time. That place is a waste of space for all who go there.

Finally they also removed Amirm's lies as well. But Guess what, I still saved all 7 pages of that thread before they removed anything. Gotcha AVS Losers.

I told them to either restore my access or refund my $35 I paid last year for my membership for which they had restricted my access.

After more than a few back and forths, they caved like the weak ass shills I suspected they were at that cesspool, and refunded my $35 back to my account.

So let's see the Scoreboard....

Me, I have my integrity 100% in tact, and got my $35.00 Back.

AVS Lost my advice to others, and I will tell everyone I know to stay away from that cesspool.

And Amirm no longer has a Job, or ANY INTEGRITY AT ALL... Bingo.....

And as for Micro$haft, you reap what you sew, you bought him, you got what you deserved, a dead ass format. I hope they rot in those overpriced add-ons for that piece of crap 360 they sell.

And Amirm, if you ever read this, you were nothing but a lying shill that went around deceiving others and lying about what others wrote to advance your warped agenda, and I have the proof as well. Then you or someone else whined about your little posts so you could get others removed. You are a Pathetic piece of human flesh. Bask in your unemployment, I hope you are miserable while we all enjoy our blu-ray players and PS3 Gaming Consoles. Guess what... YOU, like hd-dvd LOSE. Good Company


What a loser......

Thanks for the good news guys. made my day.

I agree.
The DUD-bias at AV$ and HDD is proof of the "success" that FUD can bring.

I go way back with Amir, to when he first started posting at AV$.
Myself and a few others screamed "FOUL!!"
And, naturally, our posts were deleted and we were threatened with expulsion.

However, we did score the 1st victory over the SOB at AV$.
Initially, he was allowed to post in the BD Forums.
We complained vigorously.
Finally, the mods restricted him to the DUD Forums (of course, he still FUDDED endlessly ).

I agree with this too. The whole situation is rather sad. Microsoft has managed to turn some good sites into marketing machines.

[kx11]

it's funny that no one cared about him leaving lol , they got on with the desscusion instead of saying their goodbyes

[badboi]

I heard he applied for the Chief Cheeseball Maker position at Hickory Farms.

I heard they turned him down!

[blujacket]

He doesn't look to be retired at AV$.

[JTK]

Watch him end up at Toshiba. What a perfect fit that would be, in more ways than one.

the only thing he accomplished was destroying those sites. I think most people that cared/care about A/V just left and the trolls and xbox fanboys took over which is why they show up as red

Retirement should give you lots of time to watch movies on your new BD50. Enjoy!

AVS is still the best forum IMHO for all things A/V, you just need to stay out of that thread, the moderation is poor. I would even stay out of the entire sub-forum.

As far as Amir leaving, I think he should step up and voluntarily stop posting to the insiders thread, otherwise folks should protest and see what comes of it. After all what kind of insider information can he provide? He has historical knowledge and contacts, but that's not the point of that thread.

It's great to have Max and Talk there, the folks that attack them are the same that fed softballs to queue up Amir's campaign. They are bitter losers, what else can do you expect, the crap they question is so childish it ads no value at all, it just makes people dumber for reading it.
