      This was painful to read

      TRUE! Wow... some serious lack of BASIC I.T. Knowledge...

        Eh, I don't really care about that. We are all in a constant state of learning. I'm not in a position to judge anyone and wouldn't if I were

          Right, but claiming to be an expert and putting this as a basis of being an expert is laughable.

            Lacking basic knowledge is not bad. Lacking the most basic knowledge while repeatedly berating other people and claiming to be a domain expert so cover up a long series of lies is the issue.

              Yeah that is the part that is a problem.

                Did you actually read the entire thing? Anytime Scott goes on those 8 post rants where he's writing a paragraph to every 4 words, I have to just skip those. Kudos to anyone who survived the whole thing.

                  It's tough, because the "four words" is making a false claim, and then I have to provide real IT and documentation to refute it. So not a good way to make it less wordy, because I have to explain concepts behind things in each response.

                    It's taken some time to get used to, but I feel like it's easier to read because he's addressing each point separately. Wall of text is for sure harder to keep on point when really breaking something down. How he strings 6 replies in a minute is still a mystery to me though.

                        I read the entire thing. If I Cherry pick I may miss a detail that would be helpful for me to learn.

                          @xrobau I'm an intern and nothing you have listed is a special feature. I honestly thought you were a salesman or vendor on this thread.

                          Wow! Brutal honesty

                            There is, in fact, not a single factual thing in this description, not even buried in the subtext.

                            If you look really really closely at the subtext there is a 🖕 buried in there. lol

                              He very well could be, thus the fervent shouting about the myths of FreeNAS and ZFS. You have to question someone when they are so impassioned about a topic, but can provide no proof.

                                    wow, what a read.. like to see Scott has also posted evidence referring to what he's posted, which I like to see as well, this really helps in the discussion. Always got to back up your claims.

                                      Does this somehow resemble the early days of that other tech community when "experts" would show up and get SAM'd?

                                          So how many down votes does it take to get a pseudo-expert removed from a forum? Asking for a friend.

                                            @XROBAU So I don't know if you are still reading this, have abandoned the thread, or left the community, but if you are still here, I just want to tell you something....

                                            Scott Alan Miller is probably in the top 20 storage experts IN THE WORLD. He may come off as a bit arrogant and maybe a little condescending, but at the end of the day, he really is an expert.

                                            If you do even a modicum of research on Scott, you will find he is referenced, quoted, copied, and cloned throughout tech communities and forums around the world, and his advice and recommendations are used daily in businesses ranging from mom and pops, to Fortune 100 companies.

                                            Companies like Change.org, Citi, Barclays, as well as hedge funds, and Wall Street firms have sought out Scott for his expertise. These companies do not take data and storage lightly, so when THEY seek out someone like Scott, you can be assured his skills and knowledge are rock solid.

                                            Just sayin' dude
