You should have asked him if he ever went with the name Custom Sift.

I'm beginning to think he is who he says he is…just made a grave mistake. A few people I've spoken with have said he's a likable guy. I just hope the thread may have educated people that don't understand their license. They should also know how we all feel about cracks. That's what I was pissed most about. That, and he was very non chalant about everything. I was very surprised he didn't delete the post immediately. He just kept engaging people. I think that was a bad idea for him.

In any event, what a goof I made yesterday emailing the whole L. I thought that email went out to like 80-100k people. Hence, why I was freaking out when I wrote my last email. I didn't want to hurt the guy professionally. However, Marianna needed to know. I don't want you guys to think I'm a flake. Lol.

In any event, Happy Holidays!!!

I personally think this was a troll and wouldn't be surprised if he was actually hired to do this.
Anyone's guess by whom...

The guy originally asked for some software that he knew about that allowed you to reset the temp license on your Avid trial.

The reaction was fierce and swift.

In his defense - not valid, but at least not as bad as it originally sounded - was that he was a long-time Avid editor and has PAID versions of the software (and has had paid versions back to the Film Composer days), but that he wanted to edit on his laptop over the holidays and his trial on his laptop had expired.

I reported it to Marianna as did several others.

I can't see it either. In the interest of brevity, could someone who did read it give us a synopsis?
