Quote from Satan's Helper:
I think I remember that happening. He started a on line group and Barron had a issue with that. He was recruiting without paying for sponsorship. At the same time Don Bright was sponsoring the board and Hitman was recruiting the same people Don and the other sponsors had to pay to also recruit.
Wow.. IMHO that's pretty short sighted of Barron. As I understand, people like Hitman (among others) actively contribute information we like/need to consume. It makes thousands upon thousands of wondering souls flock to ET and therefore sponsoring/advertising has any business value. Barron basically slaughtered the chicken laying the golden eggs I think. I subscribed to ET for the golden eggs, not some sponsor/advertiser that's probably trying to sell me the new snake oil or holy grail.
