"Amateur" had never referred to quality, it's always been about not making
money from it.


Au contraire, for it has always been about being a lover of the art, so that
even a professional can be an amateur given the right positive mindset


Rank amateur in your case, Gareth Alun Evans G4SDW.


Positive mind set, how hypocritical can Evans get?

amateur

noun

a person who does something (such as a sport or hobby) for pleasure
and not as a job


adjective
- taking ​part in an ​activity for ​pleasure, not as a ​job

professional



adjective

paid to participate in a sport or activity



noun
- a ​person who has the ​type of ​job that ​needs a high ​level of ​
education and ​training

http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dict...h/professional


So those who falsely claim to the Dr title or pretend to be legally trained
are not professionals. Assuming they even work.



professionals are OK as long as they have a different hobby ....

As always, the daily episode of spiteful abuse comes from you and from
nobody else.

Why do you behave like that; like a loser in the school plyaground who
wasn't
selected by either side to join their football team?
