How Not to Pitch to a Startup

Then tell us about your personal experience. Don't make claims without explaining yourself.

EDIT: Or you can delete your post, Teej, which said "VCs don't invest in things that are actually relevant, take it from personal experience." If you don't want to explain something, then just say it, apologize, and move on. Don't try to hide what you said.

It wasn't a matter of hiding what I said. For legal reasons, I can't really comment on my experience. I'm sorry that I can't back up my opinion.

Ah! Very sorry. That makes sense.

"I am generally hostile." apparently.

Hostile is a good way to be. It means forcing people into explaining themselves and the things they do. At the same time, it's a state of mind that lets yourself admit you're wrong, which I was this time.
