Being one of the members of the 2+2 forums who replied to “Ripptyde” thread I would like to add a few words.
Some of the greatest poker minds post on 2+2. Yet, many of your theories Ripptyde revolve around short term statistics and many of your comments are generalizations (thread has numerous examples). I am sure the unique style you've adopted allows you to be a winning player, (you're statistics seem to prove that). Yet, the statistics will not impress many of those players who bring in 100k+ a year.
Many people on 2p2 are harsh critics who will tear things apart word for word.
Yet, on 2p2 no one is perfect. Many of those people that responded to your guide negatively not only give criticisms but take their share as well. Strassa and Ansky are constantly getting torn apart for statements and hands that they post. Just realize everything written on 2p2 forums is tough love.
As for the drama that unfolded here. meh.... 2p2 has the same thing going on with Gigabet. Defending you’re ego on an internet forum is completely pointless; what do you have to prove to anyone?
My parting words will be good luck Ripptyde, I am sure you will do fine. Honestly, you might want to re-read the 2p2 thread and fix some statements in your guide, people only pointed out the bad. Definitely had some good points in there, and with some work I think the guide has potential.
…and I hope that no one here thinks any less of 2p2 after this whole ordeal.
