I have to say that MC does have a wealth of knowledge and could be a great help to many of our readers that are relatively new to this "hobby".
The problem is that his knowledge is not provided free of charge. If a question is beneath his level, it and the OP are treated with distain and regardless of the topic everything comes with a healthy dose of arrogance and self-aggrandizing.
That being said. It makes no difference to me whether his is here or gone.
