Don't let this get to you.
I don't think he speaks for everyone.
You should be in this thread and this response is 100% along the way of how you should act and conduct yourself.
With little to no experts around to help provide a perspective, your knowledge is appreciated.
You gave facts and helped direct things the right way. Whether you agree with things or this is direct competition.
You acting/helping out in asking the right questions builds credibility to yourself where I would consider using you more because of it.
There is always competition and will always be. But I appreciate a good response that adds value to the conversation.
Whether the advice gets used or not is a totally separate issue. An average person would not ask a question that you might ask.
