Gary (Crius) has hundreds upon hundreds of great tank videos on YouTube:

The gallery kind of sucks (you can't open multiple pictures in multiple tabs because of damn javascript) so it's no surprise to me that people would not use it. I tried perusing it a few weeks ago to get some Sherman ideas and found it painful to navigate.

Besides if a picture is worth 1000 words then a video is worth 10,000.

If you want to learn something about tanks around here Crius is one of the most knowledgeable.

Honest disbelief mostly.

Not questioning his knowledge I am sure he knows a lot about the subject of RC tanks, but then so do I. I choose to present my information in a different manor that is simple for the person with very little knowledge and more entertaining which apparently is NOT to his liking. I think this banter between the two of us is more based on his feelings of NOT liking my post subjects (as he indicates above) than anything to do with the Brian issue. It is a chance for him to lash out at me that he seized. He speaks of croutesy and respect toward other members but feels no need to show it when he is responding to me. I have chosen my words carefully to not be disrespectful of him. Do they question him maybe, maybe not it’s up to the reader to interpret for themselves. On the other hand he clearly questions my knowledge with statement like “rookie”. Basing them solely on what? Time on this site? Post count? At least I have extensive, quality, mostly in action photos of my tanks in my threads and in the my gallery which I believe add to the overall visual content on this forum.

I think his real reason for not posting photos here has more to do with diverting folks to his YouTube channel in order to see his work. Why show it here, they may not visit his channel and the more viewer the higher you rank and the more money one can potentially make. Nothing wrong with that and I would applaud him for it, but it does nothing for the visual content of this forum.
