I received two hateful emails from "[email protected]" today and wanted to post them online so he is accountable for them, and so that he can comment on the forums here from now on if he wishes to harass me any further.

Email 1:

Must suck huh?

to have to be hustling kids on eslcafe.com for your scam?

I don't normally encourage suicide, but for you and the Orient, I think it's a big improvement.

And if you're man-enough, you can do like David Carradine did in the Bangkok *beep* house.....

BUT ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH???


Email 2:

Or if you want...

I can meet you in Itaewon and take of business..... you'll get a kiss goodbye at the end too.

Very Happy


Death threats and calls to suicide by email are not going to be tolerated.
"Rod Munch", if you wish to post such hateful comments, please do so on the forum for the public to judge.

Dear Rod,

You know, it really doesn't "suck" at all. Doing what I truly love in life and training and coaching others while living a lifestyle I enjoy is something that makes me happy. I don't think informing people about my business and what I do and offering free training that I could charge for with the intention of getting feedback is a "scam." However, if this post has offended anyone or violates site rules, I am happy to take it down. It has been up for nearly a week, however, with only positive feedback. If you wish to report it to the site's administrator's, please feel free to.

You obviously have issues of your own, where sending violent and threatening emails to people is a regular habit of yours -- a quick Google search proves that to be true. I suggest you fill your life with more positivity, and start being happy for others instead of scouring the forums online to look for victims to send hate-filled messages to.

If you wish to sent complaints about scams, I suggest you check your email inbox, where you'll find a smorgasbord of offers to choose from (most of them probably better choices than the psychology major and health coach in Asia giving away free training about nutrition, fitness, and personal development). It's quite common in the industry; doing a run-through with test participants so you can learn from their questions and feedback (and get testimonials from those who benefited) is a smart practice, and is in no way a scam.

I don't appreciate the death threats or mentions of suicide. If you wish to post to me in the future, please do so on the forum where everyone can see and comment.

Thank you.

Wishing you the best,

Blake

So you're trying to make some money off a bunch of cheap liberal backpacking English teachers that sell their unfinished boxes of Q-tips in the buy-sell forums? Good luck with that. Razz

Nowhere did I say I was trying to make money off anyone. It's FREE. I already have a client base. I work with expats, so thought posting here to get some people to test the program would be a good thing.

I posted about death threat and violent emails from one psycho forum-stalker, and your response doesn't really seem appropriate, necessary, or relevant.

There is a certain irony in the fellow trying to sell us "vitality" linking us to a website including a Youtube video formatted in the style of the single most vitality-draining innovation of the modern era: the PowerPoint Presentation. Hell is not other people, Hell is other people slowly narrating PowerPoints.

The question is, why did I trust you enough to even look at your web page? I knew it was a trick. I guess I just felt bad after the other fellow hurt your feelings via email. It was a pity click, and I regret it.

Free program = no one trying to "sell" you anything.

If you're not into it, don't watch the video, don't sign up as a test participant to receive FREE training. I like how no one comments about the death threats or notions of suicide emails, but instead like to harp on people who are doing their own thing and enjoying life. Enjoy the status quo.

Thanks Fox.

It was a "trick" alright. Did that video explaining the entire free training program "trick" you into anything? Show me your website please so I can comment on your lack of presentation skills.

It tricked me into being exposed to the soul-destroying monotony that is the PowerPoint Presentation. I can't express what an awful experience PPTs are, especially narrated ones. I'm trying to help you. For free. Pick a better format.

That's why I needed to create that presentation in the first place. Because people don't get it and it needed a clear explanation. A lot of clients are not native speakers, but speak pretty good English, so speaking slow so everyone can understand clearly.

By watching videos online, how is anyone going to "trick" you into buying something?

I want feedback from people who are interested in this type of thing. Testing. Talking to prospects. Practicing coaching.

I do have lots of other formats of videos on YouTube and elsewhere. All around the world, in some of the coolest countries, with good production and editing. This was just the easiest way to explain things. Since this is FREE. I put in time to create that and present it, so you gotta give me that.

If it were a paid program, maybe I'd put in more production value.

Anyway, I already have the 15 participants so I don't know why I'm explaining myself!

Working hard at getting all the videos I promised ready for the deadlines, so lots of work to do. I promise you THOSE won't be Powerpoints.

Have a great day everyone. I'll take down the original post!

More power to you. Hey, Anthony Robbins failed miserably at everything he did, right up until he started teaching others how, ironically, to not fail miserably!
