I agree, there are a few shady characters about. I'm just lucky to have not run into any yet. (And hopefully never will).
But I do prefer to make my own mistakes. That way, I learn from them and make the neccessary adjustments to the way I work.
Some things I look at, and imediately wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole.
Other things I will give the benefit of the doubt.
I will not lose very much if 888 does not come back, but I do feel sorry for anyone who loses a lot if it disappears.
One of the reasons I'm giving this guy the benefit is that I've had 'burn-out' and it really DOES feel the way he described.
But this is all my personal point of view and I have no wish to influence the decisions or actions of others.
I'll wait and see what happens.
