[edit] advertisement?

I wasn't able to find negative criticism about Eker on the web, so I put up what I new to see if it could be expanded upon and made more neutral, so I hope it's not speedy-deleted. --Scottandrewhutchins 05:08, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Someone revised the apge after me and I tagged it as an advertisement. I am going to revert it, even though my version was minimal, to prevent it from getting speedy deleted. --Scottandrewhutchins 11:33, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Negative tone

The final paragraph has a very negative tone to it. It needs to be rewritten with more objective voice.--Janus657 15:01, 23 May 2007 (UTC) Are you sure?

This is supposed to be educational... not one big bash against motivational speakers or the self help industry.

That paragraph has been removed previously on WP:NPOV grounds, but it has now returned. --Scottandrewhutchins 18:21, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

The funny thing is it's true. It doesn't bash over the head with negativity so much as subtly and in a detached manner call it out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.197.37.141 (talk) 07:34, August 28, 2007 (UTC)

It is still an opinion and a violation of WP:NPOV. Wikipedia is not for users' [original opinion?]

OK, I've been to his weekend intensive, and to the Warrior Camp, and while I'm a big believer in what Harv Eker is teaching, and in how they do it, I have to agree that there is truth in the bashing. The bashing could be toned down, definitely, but the weekend is about 50% very valuable education, and about 50% sales. Still, being expensive as it was, and being 3 months out of the course now, I have to say that the Warrior Training was the best personal development money I've ever spent, including College. Hey, Education is expensive, no matter how you get it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.251.160.254 (talk) 20:45, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

I have participated in 2 of Eker's courses. I find the selling unpretentious and light-hearted. I have yet to receive any "Mexican Police Torture", I had enormous fun. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robiemurdoch (talk • contribs) 04:09, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
