Hate? Not really. I mostly just think he's an abysmal fanfic writer. I'm mildly interested in seeing if he has any original works, since I think he could do a good story if he didn't have the constraints of adhering to an established lore. And if you feel that saying that a work is garbage is promoting it, then...you're entitled to your own interpretation, I guess.

If you don't think there's any "venom" in Marauder Shields, you should read the first five comics. All they're about is trashing the ending of ME3 (or at least they try to), coupled with "Retake" slogans. The author, after all, supported the "Retake" movement. And I wouldn't exactly say he's "civil" about it, given that he actually wrote a response here that not only consisted mainly of insulting me, but failed to acknowledge that the focus of the review was how Marauder Shields immediately shatters its claim of lore accuracy and the weak justifications used to excuse the lore inaccuracies. (His comments and my replies to them were deleted by one of this site's admins, out of other users' concern that it might get out of control.)

His webcomic was created solely to complain about another work. I see no reason as to why his work should not be criticized in turn.
