Michael Crook

I am a native of Mays Landing. I have lived here for over 60 years. His synopsis of our history is disgraceful. It reads like someone who just looked us up on the internet and paraphrased the articles that they found. I hope that people will come here and form their own opinions instead of listening to him.

I have been reading this blog for quite some time. Someone alerted me to it because he purports to be from here. He definitely doesn't represent us or anything about us. In fact, no one who is anyone here even knows who he is. That should tell you something. Someone told me that he claims to have been somewhat famous when he was in school here. All I can say is that if that were the case, I would have heard of him. He had to be brought to my attention. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Thanks for the opportunity to explain that.

May'sLandingNative,

Everyone here is smart enough to know Mikey represents himself poorly and we really don't hold Mays Landing accountable. The whole purpose of this site is to beat Mikey down not Mays Landing because Mikey only supports Mikey's right to free speech and not our right. He's entirely too stupid to understand the free speech cuts both ways.

Althought several comments have been made about New Jersey's school system, none were said to embarrass the residents of that state. The only reason I said anything about the school system is that Mikey thought the significance of July 4, 1776 was that we came from England on a syndicated radion show. With his latest book coming out attempting to say the holocaust never happened, this proves to me he was pretty damn weak in History.

Michael was just a little boy when he was IST's resident puppy dog. I read his "history" of the company. Let me just comment that he must be suffering from acute memory fragmentation. His labeling David as a technician is especially funny considering Michael was not what you would call technically savvy. If he had had talent matching his annoyance level on the other hand, there would have been fewer cases of having to tidy up after him. I looked at his site because someone told me he was going to write a book about IST. All will comment is HA!

ISTreunion,

Well I knew that Mikey doesn't know as much as he crows he does about PC's or Networks. Honestly, I've been working on computers since 1987. I was in the initial push towards PCs back in 1984 and ran the Small Computer Technical Center for HQs Strategic Air Command.

I figure Mikey probably used to call "Copy Con" the best wordprocessor he ever had.

As far as his book, I doubt there will be any interest in it from anyone. The most copies he's ever sold was the copies that the group purchased. Even then, most say it was poorly written and lacked facts. I have no doubts that any book he'll ever write would sell 100 copies. We've measure his books in the past and a book about living with herpes outsold his book. That's pathetic!

The biggest thing in Mikey's way of becoming anything at all is credibility. I mean when the things he says draws so much heat, he simply closes his site and runs like a scared bunny rabbit. His excuse is he does not run because he uses his real name, which is a lame excuse. I use my name and I run from Nobody! If asked about my opinion, I'll be more than happy to lay out the FACTS to back up my position. Something Mikey falls short on.

He crows he celebrates freedom of speech all of which is garbage. He celebrates his own Free Speech while stiffling everyone elses. He says free speech cuts both ways but that doesn't apply on his websites. I've never actually deleted anything from my blogs because it drew heat. If it draws heat, fine. I'll deal with it. I have yet to get death threats from my blog and probably never will. However, I'm in Texas where everyone owns 2.5 guns. I probably wouldn't need the gun if I saw Mikey at my front door. All I'd have to do is stare at him and growl. That would be more than enough to make him piss in his pants. I'm 200 pounds and Mikey is a buck 25 at the most. It would look like a train run over Mikey.

You're entirely right.

I don't ever see Michael Crook knowing as much about UNIX, Linux, or Windows Server as he claims. Ever. I could give a book on it to you and you'd know your way around very quickly.

The best evidence for that was when he got pwned, apparently by a very simple exploit that any sysadmin with brains would have blocked.

BTW, for laughs, check this link:

I like this part.

Tucker Max calls Crook out for a showdown. Crook winds up exposed and b&. A+++ WOULD READ AGAIN

Since myself and Franny gave Tucker most of the info.i gave him the screenshots and some he took out I still have. like the info on his alledged daughter. I noitced some others taken out and that would only mean one thing.He sent a DMCA noice when at th same time he claimed it was false info or forged info lol

And yes, thank you very much.

Tucker's thread is an example of a complete beatdown on someone, for good reason.
