El Mayimbe vs The Hype

I've never really had a major issue with Maybe until yesterday, even though his fake scoops are fun to joke about.

But I personally don't care about the correctness or incorrectness of "scoops" I read on the internet. I take everything with a grain of salt anyway, even if the person has a good track record for honesty. So Maybe has never gotten under my skin like he has with some.

But yesterday, I think he crossed a line. I can forgive him being lame and trying to get attention through fake scoops. I can even forgive him being lame enough to start a twitter war over a message board that is simply pointing out his inaccuracies.

But I can't forgive him being so lame that he tried to used gestapo tactics to get his naysayers banned from a site he's got nothing to do with.

He deserves no respect from anyone and needs to get a life.
 
RAPUNZEL HAS SPOKEN!

Now we need to obliterate his reputation.

...

Well that was quick. :meanie:
 
El Mayimbe is crying his eyes out while reading this thread. You are all so mean.

:o
 
I was referring to the SHH article, that used their own anonymous sources to "discredit" Mayimbe's anonymous sources. If I had a "scoop" and another site came out and said I was wrong because they had mystery sources who denied it, I would be a little irritated. And all this on top of the fact that studios deny stuff like this all the time, and it often turns out to have been true all along. So both SHH and Mayimbe are guilty of sensationalizing their own "scoops".

Are we talking about the Spider-Man scoop? Because if so, Da7e posted that source. Yes... the same Da7e who bought the URL for a fake movie.

So please..... if you must bash someone, bash the right person.

That said, El Mayimbe is still a hack with delusions of granduer.
 
You can't imagine my surprise when I read that Spencer Perry and Eh Maybe are friends. Many monocles fell that day.

Here's the exchange where he stands up for this site https://***********/TheSpencerPerry/status/555482974708568064

"I just write there, I have nothing to do with those people."
 
Uhm, yeah, that's true. What's the problem? He's not in charge of the forums. Don't try to turn this into a Spencer is bad thing.
 
Is this thing really that serious, Mirko?

I don't know if he's bad or not but as someone who represents this site, I would have expected more loyalty on his part. As far as I know, us forum people he has nothing to do with are allowed to have our opinions. It just so happens that the consensus opinion is that El Mayimbe is a loser. I don't know, if I ran this site I wouldn't be ok with some outsider going on twitter and talking crap out the people who visit my site and have been very loyal to this site over the years. But hey, you know, that's just me.

You think we're okay with it? Come on.

I'm sure you're not but it would be nice to see someone not be ok with it. Then again, maybe you think it's best not to get into it with him which is probably the wise move when it comes to El Mayimbe and his followers.

wow, the opposite of classy
 
I just wanted to say, despite everything that's going on, that I give my condolences to El Mayimbe for the recent loss of his friend. :csad:
 
oh yuck

he truly believes that he's a celebrity or something, but the territory of criticism doesn't apply to him whatsoever. So as punishment, we should get banned for questioning the validity of that report?

Ya dun goofed, Berty.... ya dun goofed.

He is celebrity around here.
 
What does he mean "those people??" :eek:


:funny:

I can't say I care.
