alsutton has spent huge amounts of time over the past couple months posting disparaging posts against Archos on the http://forum.archosfans.com , posting every type of "unfounded and slanderous allegation" against Archos that one can nearly think of, that were not "sensible degree of scepticism", that are part of him having a premeditated agenda in trying to publicly attack Archos reputation, stir controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant, or off-topic discussions on the unofficial Archosfans forum, that is in fact about participating in spreading FUD about a competitor (appslib vs andappstore) on public internet forums without a full disclosure.
When you are contemplating to prepare a court case against a company, you don't go spend 2 months disparaging that competing company on the internet forums for that company (maybe even blogs). That'd be like Microsoft employees spreading lies about apple on apple fansites and forums a couple months before they announce to sue each other. alsutton's favorite Archos bashing theme was to basically recommend that nobody should buy the Archos 5 Internet Tablet with Android because it would in his knowledgeable and expert mind and with all his exclusive contacts in the Android development community (even with him having all kinds of contacts with Google engineers), that he could always with all kinds of certainty say that Archos would never be able to use the Google Apps and the Google Marketplace. He posted this speculation of his as fact on the forum for dozens and dozens of times and he would bring it up in dozens of different threads even bringing things like this up in totally unrelated threads. If, as a moderator of that site, I hadn't actually deleted several of the worst of such unrelated allegations posted by alsutton on the forum (and which I somewhat regret now since it would have been better to have the complete archive of his worst offending posts), you would be able to find many more such attacks on Archos reputation in the posts throughout all his posts at http://forum.archosfans.com/search.php?author_id=44763&sr=posts -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
