Well it's more a case of people people joining up with him. Although he isn't technically a big fish like Interland, Verio etc, he has a cult status on this board, and people seem to like associating with him, maybe hoping a little of his fame rubs off onto them?
I think most businesses would be happy to print out Tim's resume if it ended up in their inbox, just so they could burn it.
I don't usually take a swipe at people but Tim has single handedly reduced the reputation of the hosting industry via this forum a great deal lately. While WHT is a speck in the ocean of the internet, there are a lot of people who come through here. If they were jaded before, Tim and the other snake oil sellers around here have certainly convinced them the whole industry is full of sharks and liers.
Not to wish bad fortune on anyone, but if Tim and his 'ilk' tripped down a set of stairs tomorrow, I don't think I'd shed too many tears.

No 'technically' about it. Tim isn't a big fish of any flavor, in any pond. As for cult status and people wishing to associate with with... that has to be the most insane thing I think I've seen typed on this forum in the more than two years I've been here
Besides, Tim has no real capital to invest in a business, no tangible assets (e.g. servers), he doesn't have design skills, and his reputation is far from being angellic. Why else would you want to associate with him, apart from to get into the limelight eh?
