My experience with him was the complete opposite. From his very first interaction online, he was nothing but a arrogant, cynic, a liar who loves to pose as victim, and a misogynist, when he said you should not believe "people from third world countries" with more than one amp, because they would never be able to afford them. At that time I was back living in Brazil.
I've forgiven him twice after that, when I moved back to LA and then to Nashville. I even helped him with ordering his Larry PMM, and spent almost an hour on the phone with him answering questions about Larry's amps and his ordering process. And he was a douche bag to me in every opportunity he had after that. So, I'm done with him for good.
People can say he is modern version of Gandhi... to me, he has always been, and will always be, a lying arrogant misogynist douche bag.
That's how he presented himself to me.
