thank you bently for the courage to say what is so obvious and just willing to get people to look at the evidence. this guy makes this forum look like were all stupid and ignorant, are we, are you !!!! if you are willing to except a phony, fake, fraud and keep commenting on his fake posts shame on all of you. i dont except people that pretend to be something their not, nor should any of us. when someone creates a phony persona that complements them selves, well thats fricken sad and sick ! it was sad when i knew james had the quack, but when i found out the wood guy was also him that was enough for me. so if you guys or gals think those three, or sorry james is worth commenting on go for it ! just remember it's always james ! bently cares about the integrity of this forum as much as i do and hates anyone that degrades that. for those that dont care maybe go back to lj's ? i dont know about bent but i will solicite martin to remove this fraud from our great forum. feel free to attack and piss on me >😏😁

so far we have 3 james persona's, how many more might there be lurking here ? A persona is the image or personality that a person presents in public or in a specific setting—as opposed to their true self.

ChuckV....nicely done on the P/S work for that photo!! Impressive...
ChatGPT gets all the credit for this one. I even mistyped and asked for a "bug of beer" but it knew what I really meant!
My son is a mechanical engineer and just got access to the paid version of ChatGPT at work. His initial reaction is that "it's a bit scary how good it is."

It would appear he is living rent free in your heads. Personally I am not seeing his crime, but it is fun to watch.
I come here to check out the woodworking, share ideas, and shoot the shit. This evidently much despised person certainly shows he is a good woodworker, and I like his sense of humor, and his cooking style. I've learned a LOT of what is said here seems to have agenda's that don't interest me, and some of the stated here lie cheat and steal, to be the head honcho, and my thought was that job belonged to Martin.
The absolutely worst member here or at the prior place was/is Rich, and I have never seen this type of witch hunt carried out on him, which is shameful.

At least I’m not a poseur.

George, I was taught something about integrity at an early age. My father instilled in me that your word is all you have, and without your word you have nothing.
Nothing wrong with the recipes, but why can't they just come from James?
The problem with the aliases is that they are used to belittle and oppose others at will and with no recourse back to the original poster. And with multiple aliases, he uses them to back up and affirm himself to look like he's not alone in his venture. If you approve of that it's OK, just shows the level of integrity you were raised with.
Anybody believe in coincidences?

Thanks again George I’m sure there are more good people like you out there. They look at this Herd Behavior and don’t want to be attacked by the wrath of this cabal.
I am living rent free in their heads I just didn’t know how many heads there were and they make for terrible landlords it’s a pretty scary place in there. I can see why they want out too.
Pottz should change the name pottz’s patio to let’s bash James and any allies of his.
I have the upmost respect for you, your craft, and all of the work you have entertained us with over the years. Your Dad, and mine are of the same cut, and I too feel strongly about my word.
James, Quack, Woodguy just has a bunch of faces he shows, and plays with. To me I am not seeing the crime in that. Within his people he does a lot of deflection, but again I'm not seeing a foul. PUTZ does much worse, while calling you a friend, and he is the lie cheat steal I referred to, and why I refuse to have anything more to do with his nasty ass.
Now Rick has huge balls calling me a poseur, he has absolutely ZERO woodworking knowledge, evidently he also has no shop, except what he can use at his job (WoodCraft) Everything he has "invented, shared, or thought up", is well written about by others off the web. He has personally run off more people from several forums, than anyone else I can think of with rude, and demeaning comments. His BS rankles me seriously, and I am shocked by the number here, and at past forums that support, and defend his BS.
Same kind of coin, looked at by 2 people, and seen in different ways I suppose.
Back to James, Maybe you haven't seen the harm because none of it has been directed at your. I have had several encounters with the nasty ass quack alias to make my claim what it is. You may remember it started with his insults to our good Iranian member, Siavash, which no longer posts her. The insults weren't that bad, but the fact that James didn't do it face to face and used his accompliss is what has bothered me from the start, and I have witnessed the same many other times since. As far as Potzz and Rich go, at least what they do, they do up front and have taken the full recourse from it by everybody, over the years. No deception, just straight up about it, Like them or not.
Everybody decides what they are willing to put up with. If you like the Quack, no problem with me. Just as long as everybody knows he's someone else, even though he hasn't had the balls to admit it.
