I think the problem is that he does not contribute to tech discussions but wants to sell us stuff anyway. Skunks probably feel used. To him this is just a market place not a forum of peers whose intellectual capacity is tickled by complex concepts and problem solving. Not that there is a rule that has to be followed but just like the infamous Akis' rants, having products perpetually shoved down your throats with no other content gets annoying.

Listers, We talked about the best hospital to go for both ante and post natal clinics (baptizing a new born); we joke about almost every non-tech related issues yet no one raises a hand.

Let honest Skunks make something small for the table. Myself I don't mind the Ads as from time to time I get interested.
Maybe we should setup a SkunkBay for Skunks to flaunt their wares.
And No. I think Mbuvi has nothing against Samsung. It is just al coincidence.
