Criticism of what? I didn't say anything at all, none!!! I merely clicked "bullseye" on a post. What did I say to deserve criticism? Did you bother to read or investigate anything before you jump into the issue without understanding what's going on?
Our friend said: "instructors who should do us all a favor and stop teaching like the people who liked/bullseyed your comment."
What did I say to deserve him to command me to stop teaching? What does he know about me from me clicking "Bullseye" on a post? I live and work 10,000Km away from him and he doesn't know me or been anywhere near me. This isn't criticism, this is character assassination and libel. I NEVER engaged him or talked to him or made wrote ANY words or said anything, again, merely clicked "Bullseye." Does he have a crystal ball to read my mind and to remotely know what I am doing 10,000 km away from him?
I do NOT accept any accusations or criticism that are unfair, undeserved, false, hostile, hateful or are just meant as part of a smear campaign. How on God's earth can any reasonable person criticize anyone or anything he hasn't seen or received information about? I didn't post anything for him to justify his attack.
You are here suger coating personal attacks and insults, again he said: "instructors who should do us all a favor and stop teaching like the people who liked/bullseyed your comment."
What did I do, say, write that deserves me being insulted and accused of something to the point of demanding me "to stop teaching"? For somebody to say this to an instructor, it means that the instructor has committed a very serious error or violated some standards to the point he should stop teaching.
What did I do to deserve such public lynching? Can you please let me know what I did, say or write to deserve this?
If you feel that YOU deserve insults and criticism, you are the one who knows what you have done or what errors you have committed. I haven't done anything and I don't appreciate being attacked in such humiliating way in public by somebody who isn't even remotely qualified.
A professional and a true educator doesn't stand on a corner and condemns everyone that passes by him and attacks them accusing them of things they never said, done or wrote. This isn't criticism nor a valid way to change anything wrong in the dive business or the world. This is just showmanship and trying to appear a hero before an audience. To educate and to enlighten people to encourage them to change for the better is better served by more professional and diplomatic means, best by leadership and example not by bullying and defamation of character based solely on me clicking "bullseye" on a post. Somebody constantly and insistently pounding their chest about how great they are and continuously attacking and ridiculing others doesn't make him right nor does it help his cause at all. It certainly doesn't make him a leader or give him more credibility.
The only thing I see and read here is somebody with serious inferiority complexes trying to compensate for his inadequacies by making accusations and viciously attacking others while uttering the politically correct phrases to make himself appear as a hero who is superior to others. Criticism should be to behavior and to methods not personal against people.
BUT, as we say in Arabic, the mountain won't shake or sway to the laugh of the hyena.
