I'm assuming most of us have seen this photo Magnus posted? I know many don't care for him, especially after what happened in MN but still, it's 914 related!

I think it is frustrating to people to see someone getting credit for ideas that are not their own or even that original because they are better at self-promotion. Despite his "demeanor" or how he interviews, we all see how hard he works at self-promotion and some of us were raised to think that modesty is preferable. Not that self-promotion is wrong, this is just my theory of why some may have such a negative response to this guy.

Some of this could be the fault of the writers that just don't know or care that many of the small mods/features have been done before yet they wax poetic for their story that makes it sound like he is the 1st to do something like that. |
