Every webmaster forum has pseudo experts and while they tend to be well-respected members of their communities they shoudn't be immune to criticism.
A pseudo expert is someone who posts guides and blogs regarding various internet marketing/SEO topics while making little if any money or success in the aforementioned fields. For example, a pseudo expert may write an ellaborate 2000 word guide on adult markerting that gets a positive reception, yet the original poster makes very little if any money on adult marketing. Another example would be someone who runs an SEO blog but doesn't make any money with SEO.
Since pseudo experts are uanable to make money online easily though automation (SEO, clickbank, azoogle etc) they tend to do a lot of tedious grunt work instead, usually for less than minimum wage. Such tasks include content writing, banner/logo design, directory submission, website design, wordpress installation, etc. If they were truley experts they woudn't have to perform grunt work but would be able to make automated income thorugh affiliate marketing or adsense.
In addition, pseudo experts tend to create so called 'marketing blogs' where they ramble about internet marketing and various widgets. The only problem is that they lack the skillset to establish any meaningful reader base or monitization.
Pseudo experts also make a lot of faulty assumptions in their writings. Eli, for example, whom I respect his efforts is a pseudo expert and he reveals that by making this noobish post regarding a so called free amazon.com link.

It is no different than having a blogger blog or a myspace account. True myspace and blogger are very well trusted domains, but they don't pass any authority to thier subpages which are actually orphan pages.
Pseudo experts aren't bad people; they are noobs though. And there is nothing with being a noob. But just don't pass yourself off as someone with expertise when you are unable to apply it to yourself.
