As a business grows things like this can happen multiple times. Balancing the growth of a business is one of the hardest parts of owning and managing it.

Let me first say this.. I haven't had any problems with Shiv personally. My experience was great and he was great..
However threads like this are one (of the many) reasons I moved away from OFT to go to ECUTek.
This also isn't the first time or the first platform where people have complained about this exact thing. You can find threads from 10 years ago where people complained about Shiv being slow or just downright not responding until someone tags him somewhere in the public eye.
I don't think he's a bad guy, and obviously his product carries some weight, but he's had 10+ years to figure this out.
