2. Second, a popular reviewer did a scalding video of it after only having it about two days. In contrast, I read some posts between this reviewer and another mod makers product he had and he used their product for a month before reviewing it and had had a couple dozen emails back and forth with the maker trying to figure it out during that month of having their product. In contrast, he did up a video of mine only a couple days after receiving it. I never received one single email from him which is customary with reviewers anyway, they take their concerns to private email first to try to find out a resolution before going public.
He did start a thread asking for help, which I immediately replied that I'd help him with it, but within only a couple of posts of that thread, he posted up some photo shopped pictures pointing out that I had manufactured it "wrong"! Clearly his mind was already made up, because on the one hand he was asking for help, but was already behind the scenes photoshopping up pictures showing it was built "wrong" and gathering up testing apparatus as within about one more day he already had a video up using incorrect testing methods using forced air through the Strata to show it was "defective" (when I had pointed out to him in his thread the day before that RBA/RDA's don't work via forced induction as he sated, they work via vacuum induction, yet he went ahead and did the video anyway using knowingly flawed testing methods).
As an aside, since I think it serves as a reminder that no matter how you may trust someone, no one is infallible. This reviewer went on to heavily criticize me for deleting comments (for the record, not one of his posts was edited or deleted by me and his comments are still all there for anyone to view in that thread, only some trolls were deleted who were making false claims and were there only to hate monger). After strongly criticizing me for deleting, an ecf member posted over on his you tube video calling out his testing methods. The reviewer then replied with a strongly worded reply and then he himself later deleted both his comments and their comments! The sad hypocrisy in calling me out for deleting is he deletes himself when he sees fit.
I am of the opinion that when you are a reviewer, you have a higher standard of professional responsibility. He tried to cover, saying his video wasn't a "review", giving him carte blanche to say and do anything in it and release it to all of his 30,000 plus followers at once. It was a big injustice to Super-T and its viewers and it still sits there to this day, with its hundreds of vitriol and hatred filled posts, him knowing full well that the testing is incorrect for RBA's, yet the viewers trust him and take it at face value what he says is true.
It's actually one of the reasons I'm leaving this industry. It isn't all profits. It's the hatred I see day in and day out. It was those hate filled comments about me that were untrue. I don't have the stomach for it. I started in this industry to help people and I regrettably know I've been an ahole myself at times but nothing warranted that. I serve other industries and don't see this hatred I see in the ecig industry. I don't know why it is. There are many, many good people on here and many friends I've met so I try to keep that in mind
