Well, I agree with you to a point, but I don't agree that someone should have to prove something before they're allowed to talk about it. As I mentioned in an earlier post, at what point is someone 'worthy' (so to speak) to speak about a certain bit of software? And, who in the world determines that what they've produced is good enough? I'm sure there are guys who are better than you out there, so because you can't create something as good as them, does that mean you shouldn't comment on any software? Of course not. That'd be silly.

If you post Modo/XSI is much better than Hexagon I would expect you to be very good with both.

How good is 'very good'? I don't think that's definable.
The fact of life is this- you can't tell between those who know what they're talking about, and those who don't. I know it bugs you, but you're going to have to live with that fact. Many of us deal with it in a much more gracious way than challenging everyone to 'put up or shut up'. And besides, a lot of what 3D newbies say is valid. There really is no better or worse in 3D, so when they say Silo is better than Hex 2, it is... for them at that time. We may disagree for good reason, but that's life. They're still entitled to their opinion.
Nichod's not confused. He was simply clarifying what my original point was.

I can post how great Maya is but I opt not to because I can not actually prove it.

I think that's a very admirable thing to do (one I agree with) but I don't think it should be law for everyone, for the above reasons.
