I like your post, and your position, and your values towards this type of situation. I was unaware of the situation because I only post on this forum. And this one is very well taken care of and the members are nice and helpful and actually read and think and make progress.
I started researching Hydrogen back in April, and after a week or two I caught onto Stan's work and realized he had something special going on. I came across pretty much all those forums a couple times in my searching for information. I eventually signed up for this forum when I saw a few of yours and Stevie's videos and then noticed the forum was privatized, well I signed up right away!
From this perspective It appeared to me the other forums seem to be lacking in valuable content, activity, and progress. And reading idiots posting and ranting about theories and information that doesn't add up only discourages the people seeking real info. I can say I made the most progress since Christmas when I stopped trying to read what other people thought and started looking at what Stan was doing, reading his patents, and trying to collect anything and everything that was officially Stan's work. Then I realized from a more informed position who was for real and who was just fooling themselves.
The fact that you put the effort in to clean up the garbage in these forums is impressive, and the mark of a true man, standing up for what is right. The internet is really the only place left on earth where information can be shared and people can gather and share ideas. Sure we still have to fight massive disinformation, just read youtube comments and you can see the governments doesn't even have to step in all the time, there are enough sincere ignorant mislead individuals to jump down everyones throat as it is. Not to deny the fact that the CIA and other similar organizations have whole floors of huge government office buildings dedicated to disinformation on the internet. Just look at the wikipedia entry on the Water Fuel Cell, complete bullshit, and almost any one of us here could write 50,000 words on the true story and back it up with all the sources. But unless someone stands up to that, the lies will just get worse and information lost.
You are absolutely right about these forums, the 'community' needs to put up zero tolerance for those that would deliberately interfere and hinder the efforts. The internet is still free, and too large to gain absolute control over. I have done nothing, but you are setting the right example, and making these forums a better place for everyone with a hand or a dream in this technology.
If I can do anything now, the least is to offer a sincere thank you for your hard work, your research, your forum, and your stand against the idiots. I know you are discouraged sometimes when you are met with such opposition and disrespect, and I personally hope that you can harden your shell to those that want to discourage or hinder you and this technology and help those that are eager and hungry to learn.
