You will get a thumbs up for the work done, and a thumbs down for trying to pretend you have something you really don't.

Are you telling me that you never get annoyed at things people do that are blatantly stupid?
How about this, you are obviously an audio guy by your name, so what if this same guy had some copies of real certificates showing that he won audio competitions that he didn't even have the correct equipment to qualify for? Would you not call him a poser?

Also, being a free country does mean you can express how you feel, just don't expect everyone to agree with you.
Do I get annoyed with people doing things that are blatantly stupid? Yes, but I dont consider this blatantly stupid; nor would I lose sleep over it. I'm too laid back and easy going to give a d*mn about some guy who chooses to put a GT-R badge on his car which HE paid over 30 grand for.
If a guy with a Ferrari wants to put a Civic badge on it, then so be it. Why should it matter to me? Can I judge him? Not unless I know the reasons for which he did what he did.
As for the audio analogy, I really wouldn't care if he had "fake" certificates. Again, it effects me in no way, shape, or form. He knows he's lying and if that's how he wishes to present himself, then I can't find a way that his actions would affect me. Would he be a liar? Yes. Would I care? Nope.
Now if this guy lied to win a competition, then that's completely different. That's like this G35 guy trying to sell his car as a GT-R to another person. However, that is clearly not the case here.
