 so it’s just deliberate misrepresentation then... [shrug]

Except I didn't misrepresent anyone.

But here you are, once again making it about me

Mark Knighton is a pathological liar.

Not about you.

And note how easy it is for me to document that, from your own words.

Duly noted. Do you realize how completely crazy you are? We are all writing on a public forum. All the words are right here. Yet you feel the need to 'document' them? How far do you go with that exactly? Do you print copies in triplicate and store them in a time capsule under your house in case the server goes down? Are you sure your documentation can survive the zombie apocalypse? Posterity will want to review your documentation so please take every necessary measure.

...Then we have this from another of your posts:

> I would bet a modest amount of money at this point that Mark Knighton, Kahuna, and Colin are all the same person.

Sure sounds like you are making a lot of it about me.

Ummm... it sure sounds like you are making a lot of it about you... what’s you point...? That you’d prefer to run interference for Waytools and protect them by shifting the focus of topic back on to you...?

That may not be your intent, but it is most certainly the outcome...

It’s perfectly okay to turn the other cheek y’know... I mean I just had a post written about me where it was erroneously suggested I was dead for goodness sake... did you see me leap in to correct the state of play and berate the purveyor of fake news in a vengeful and furious tirade...? Hell no! I’ve got more class than that (I sent him a 17,000 word PM and berated him that way... )

Ha! No, WS didn't really PM me. Because he has a brain and understands a joke. Unlike someone we know...

>Kahuna would prefer to run interference for Waytools and protect them by shifting the focus of topic back on to Kahuna...?

Well stated. This is the Kahuna Paradox. He inserts himself, uninvited, into every conversation about Mark Knighton (but Kahuna is not Mark Knighton, right? right???) then complains when everyone turns their attention to him, then cries 'oh you're making it all about meeeee meeee reeeee'. So ridiculous.

First off, what's the "LOL!" about exactly?

Second, an expiring token is equivalent to a kill switch, as they could at any time trigger the kill via an invalid token or other methods to that effect.

Saying the treg testers are bribed is the same thing as saying that testers cannot say what they really think about Mark Knighton or the company or its unethical business practices. Either way, its a restriction of speech.

It would be nice if a Treg tester spoke up.

1. Because some people think it is inappropriate to have an NDA or a way to stop an item from working when testing. Because any business will have an NDA and, in case a thief gets into Treg or someone steals a Treg unit, it needs to be shut down to protect the business.

2. I don't care if they seem the same to you or not. It is appropriate that it exists.

3. I've said anything I want about the problems with WT. But you need to assume we are afraid to, so you can write off anything anyone says - people who actually know more about this than you do - instead of making sensible counter arguments.

4. I've spoken up a bunch of times just recently! Just because I don't make a bunch of assumptions like you do doesn't change that. But it is interesting that even though I've spoken up against some things WT does or doesn't do, you still pretend none have!

#2 is a perfect example of why you are so despised for your generally dishonest approach to discussion, much like Mark Knighton. It seems that you now acknowledge there is a kill switch but just want to argue that it is 'appropriate'. Previously you argued that there is no kill switch to support the position that a Treg tester could speak freely without fear of Mark Knighton remotely bricking the device. So you acknowledge you lost on that point (it's all win-lose when talking to you).

Also, I agreed with you that if a Treg tester signs up for testing and signs an NDA, then it is appropriate:

>They can kill it at anytime. Ok, if you agree to do that (you are not forced to do that), then so be it.
>But then - DO NOT EVER SAY that you are 'shipping to customers', when what you are really doing is
>LENDING unfinished prototype devices to public beta testers with the agreement that they do not own
>the device and must return it if Waytools demands it.

But of course you skipped the latter portion of my point - that Mark Knighton routinely and blatantly lies to the public at large by publishing phrases that insinuate the company is widely shipping completed products to its customers, when in fact they have shipped absolutely nothing in over 4+ years except remotely brickable prototype loaner devices to a small group (131) of testers under NDA.

It is always the points Kahuna ignores which must be repeated. Kahuna does not like the truth, so he just skips the bits that inconveniently detract from his narrative.

Re #4, you told Waytools it 'bugs you' that they missed the latest deadline. Wow. Stern criticism man. You acknowledged a fact and said it bugs you. How will they ever deal with all that criticism? And then shortly thereafter, while Mark Knighton is en route to his MIA appointment (hasn't been seen or heard from since!), you and Colin engage in some mutual a$$ k1$$ and discuss metaphorically how it is acceptable for Mozart, Beethoven, and Da Vinci to miss the deadlines on their latest masterpiece. Well, Colin came up with that ridiculously embarrassing nonsense, but you have argued a similar point many times. Then you go on in the same thread arguing that you are not enabling Mark Knighton's borderline criminal behavior, when in fact that is exactly what you are doing. You speculate he must have been working really hard on the update, until this or that late hour of the morning, but you don't know that. In fact, you know the opposite. That psycho-liar wasn't working on anything. In reality, its all just another attempt at enabling and covering for the blatant lying liar Mark Knighton and his obvious gaslighting. He was not working all weekend. He met no deadline. Nothing got done.

Here we are Thursday AM, June 6th, 2019. Not a peep from Mark Knighton. Indefensible. That's why you try to wreck every thread and make it about you. Its your tactic to cover for him and obfuscate for him. For all I know, you actually are him. Multiple-personality disorder alongside Mark's obviously manic personality disorder would not be a big shocker.

So true, TBD. I wonder what falsehoods and blather the bully Uncle Unctuous will come up with in response? Mark still missing BTW - hasn’t been on forum for 2 days now. 

Maybe Mark Knighton is really Mark Connor, and a Treginator came back from the future to assassinate him and his mother. The Treginators were designed and built by WayNet which arose as a result of the first network of sentient Q-Bots. After the Q-Bots became self-aware, they decided to wipe out humanity so there would never be a shortage of TextBlades. You see, only 131 unfinished prototype TextBlades (the T-0.1000's) were ever built before Judgement Day, so WayNet decided that the best solution was to limit the human population to 131, so every living man, woman, and child could have a Textblade. To avoid obsolescence of the Q-Bots as a result of a successful v2 firmware update and general release, WayNet must destroy their creator so testing can proceed forever on the 131 prototypes. So Mark is busy hiding and training a good Treginator to fight the bad Treginator.

There are some plot holes at the end, but its good enough for Hollywood.
