Misunderstood, once again... :(

The point I was simply trying to make is that there is much that is said on r/MK that is not very good, a lot of mud that is slung around. And I certainly hope that those new to mechanical keboards wouldn't look at the subreddit and think it has been set up or moderated by our company. That was all I was saying.

It's almost like Ripster takes things out of context and molds them into clickbait.

that comment was made days ago.. ripster is falling behind. strange, given how he spends half his day here. i also find it amusing how reddit is offended when someone takes a dig at them, whilst happily partaking in ripster's Geekwhack charade at the same time

it's dangerous how one such comment can potentially affect your livelihood this day and age.. i feel bad for anyone who has to deal with such scenarios on a daily basis

What exactly was misunderstood?

The irony is that my comment was meant to defend Geek Hack from the constant barrage of dissenters and disgruntled banned members. And I guess my 'attack' was twisted by those same people into an 'assault' on reddit. Hmmmm back to the OP, I ask, what Team Spirit?

He summed it up pretty well, because it is /mechanicalkeyboards and his stores name happens to be mechanicalkeyboards.com , he doesn't want people to think they are run by the same person.

So you followed up one generalization with another. Seems you weren't misundstood at all. Edit-pwnarwhal's post cleared it up for me. I never assumed mechanicalkeyboards.com & /r/mechanicalkeyboards had any affiliation whatsoever but I suppose it's plausible that someone might.

Pretty sure you can find examples of these on GH if you look hard enough. Ripster is those things exemplified, but an entire community? Stop yourself.

lol, when we bicker here the enemy wins, just look how many guests are viewing this, they are getting entertainment out of our distress. Lets all just take a step back and realize this is all over a couple caps. Not worth destroying the reputation of GeekHack, mechanicalkeyboards.com, or r/mk. Just cut down this group buy and have that be the end of it.

Swear you only come on here to link stuff to reddit because there isn't any decent content on there.

It was a reference to the 'Team Spirit' title of gb. And OP, I meant original post, not original poster...

How can there be team spirit between two rival factions in such way?

Truth is there should be a sense of community among us all...whether GH, reddit, or any other keyboard aficionado club. I wish it would be team spirit, and maybe even see DT have a key available in this set even...

I was going to add a Deskthority key but I didn't think there would be enough of an audience. If the groupbuy is successful there will probably be a second run, which will have DT keys.

Agreed. I should have thought out my first shovel full and not assert any generalization to begin with. I apologize for my lack of diction and/or tact. I plan to stay within the lines and play fair from now on. Again, I am sorry.

tl:dr

another reason I never go on reddit...they can have their unrestricted, angry, self-loathing, neverloving, overindulging, overreaching selves a great time.

It appears that r/mk may one day threaten the good name of our established business, Mechanical Keyboards, Inc. May it never be so...do you hear me foul-spirited redditors...  >:D

Woah, okay mate. I'd say your unrestricted, angry, self-loathing, neverloving, overindulging, overreaching attitude hurts your "good name" more than /r/mk ever will, but that's none of my business.

There is nothing to defend. Personally I think r/Mk is proving the point he was making.

The point I was simply trying to make is that there is much that is said on r/MK that is not very good, a lot of mud that is slung around. And I certainly hope that those new to mechanical keboards wouldn't look at the subreddit and think it has been set up or moderated by our company. That was all I was saying.

No one thinks its moderated by your damn company. And if thats a risk maybe you shouldn't name the company with the actual name of the product being the entire make up of it.
