Apologies if this has been posted. I only just saw it and found it quite interesting.
I wasn't sure if this should go in the FX subforum but it's not really about the pedals, more the guy.
I was looking around the internet for another OCD when coincidentally, my mate in the States posted some screen grabs of some rants by Mike Fuller. I'll post them below.
It seems that lots of folk want to throw their pedals at him.
I'm not that au fait with Fulltone as a company and it appears there are 2 different Facebook pages. One run by Mike which I guess is the official page and another run by a guy called Bryant. Mike's attempt to apologise for his outbursts which hasn't gone down to well and Bryant seems to be stoking the fire.

Perhaps, the Bryant character hopes that Fuller will buy up the rights to the user name Fulltone for a substantial sum of money? Until that occurs, Bryant jigs about and makes a nuisance of himself.
I agree that the social media spat is not in Fuller’s interests. He should simply post a disclaimer to the effect that the user currently known as Fulltone is in no way affiliated with the business of the same name and neither does he reflect the views of the company.
Take that Mr Fuller!
What had he said BTW?
I have absolutely no context to the screengrabs above so I'm not sure who is abusing who over what but its no surprise that Fuller has got into a spat. Won't be the first time, won't be the last.

He made the distinction between shoplifters/ looters and the protesters.. he just responded to an obvious troll for what I have read with a bit of wit
