The first paragraph was definitely a bit of sunshine on an otherwise cold, gray and rainy day.  I realize that most small developers probably work on a shoestring budget, so I try to support them whenever I can.  Tone Empire comes immediately to mind.  I had to deal with him a year or so ago and he was just a super guy.  Very patient and determined to solve my problem.

On the other hand, the information in paragraph two was something I had suspected for a long time.  I remember a post of yours on the old CW forum where you revealed that a massive number of “reviewers” on Youtube are actually being compensated in some way for a positive review.  I know this is naive on my part, but I was honestly surprised and the news that forums like VI-Control were manipulating posts was a true shock as well!  You need to write an expose so clods like me can be more cautious when relying on forums/social media for actual reviews.

I truly appreciate what you do!
