(Note: I am not the person you replied to; I was also around the Steve Pavlina forums/website at the time, and know several of the "insiders" personally, though I wasn't a frequent poster there.)
- jdbernard 13y agoHm. stevepavlinalies.com? I have no history with this issue, but this whole site seems to sit around DH0 and DH1 (see http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html). I have a hard time accepting this as unbiased and factual. If anything, this site seems to be an example of the type of user Steve claims derailed the forums to the point he needed to shut them down.
- ericabiz 13y agoThe GP asked for citations; I picked the first one that came up in a Google search. I'm also privy to the issue, having been involved in the community at the time (as, I'm guessing, was the OP "Dewie", though I don't know who he is IRL or if I know him as well.) You now have three different people explaining this side of the story--and I'm sure there are plenty more Google-able references out there.
