First, your comment is vacuous.

Second, your account is over 1900 days old and it seems you are making personal attacks? Is this true, or have I mistaken "you" for a you general.

Third, my original comment was rhetorical. If someone thinks it is hard to touch base with 500 Startups then it doesn't mean anything other than the person thinks it is hard to touch base with 500 Startups. There are plenty of good investors out there, and if you are going to invest in technology then it only makes sense to, you know, use technology to make it easy to collect potential investments (which as I pointed out, 500.co sucks at doing).

Touche on the personal attacks. Am I supposed to go into depth about how easy it is to touch base with 500 Startups (which is more than Dave) and that despite how easy it is, Dave still encourages people wanting to touch base to go through an intermediary as sort of a social proof exercise?

I don't understand what you are trying to communicate in the third paragraph.
