I've been keeping calm for long enough about this matter, but I'm absolutely sick and tired of the constant repetition of these hypocritical accusations. If you want to understand what happened, why don't you just take it straight from the horse's mouth?

I'm not familiar with the details of that <span style="font-style: italic">“streamlining effort”</span>, but I'm sure that <span style="font-style: italic">"plugging"</span> those <span style="font-style: italic">“leaks”</span> also led to some dealers losing their dealership which no doubt would have hurt their feelings. But to the best of my knowledge, they dealt with it and moved on, and none of them rushed to the internet and put up a pamphlet to piss on the company that cut them off. In short, they exhibited professional behaviour after a business relationship was severed.
Apparently, this kind of thing seemed perfectly understandable to Scott, exactly until it happened to himself. And please spare me the <span style="font-style: italic">“he didn't violate his agreement”</span>-BS. He knew ecacly what he was in for, and I can prove it, I just need Scott's consent to publish one of our PM exchanges.
I was hoping this bullshit would just fade away at some point, but it seems like it will get reiterated forever unless someone speaks up and expose it for what it is.
