Nevermind, not worth posting.

Nevermind, not worth posting.

What a wonderful point this post made, by posting about not posting.

[00zeRO]

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

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?

"back to the OP,"

Don't bring me into this, I had NOTHING to do with it!

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...

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... 

Lol, what's funny is for the most part reddit, particularly /r/mk, is good-natured, largely due to the voting system and backlash of downvotes. They're also pretty understanding due to the desire to support each other over what most 'outsiders' would consider to be a frivolous/nerdy hobby. The overindulging & overreaching might have some credence however.

If anything I initially had to tone down my angry/hateful comments because of how sensitive a lot of them are. I think one example was I stated "who cares what someone does to some old keyboard anyway" after a user painted an IBM keyboard black and the subreddit was against that on principle. I still stand by that statement, it's their property, but I tend to keep those comments to myself now. Not saying I don't ever step out of line though

Well, the post that caused me to stop following r/MK was when a guy was bragging about his self love being all over his keyboard before sending it in to be RMA'd. He goes into quite a bit of detail, and needless to say, I was eating. From that day forward, I was done with reddit...clearly there are no restrictions, reminds me of the old Cole Porter song, 'Anything Goes'

Retraction: I didn't mean to generalize, and for that I am sorry. There are foul-spirited redditors, but they comprise but a small percentage of those who submit reddits on r/MK. One of which is nothing more than a tattler, and I am sure many here knows who he is and why he is banned from GeekHack. I should have never even typed a single syllable. For that, please accept my apology: I am sorry.

Um, no. I believe I clarified with the last post.

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.

they can have their unrestricted, angry, self-loathing, neverloving, overindulging, overreaching selves a great time.

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.

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.

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.

I chose to retract my original statement as you will see in the first post. All subsequent posts are pasted here for reference should anyone be interested.

Alrighty looks like my business will going elsewhere from now on.

Oh please. You guys are killing me.

Please defend it then

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

Wow so a vendor puts down a whole community and because someone gets upset about it, it proves the vendor right? And then members of GH go on to mock new accounts. Even if it was taken the wrong way there were enough people who obviously thought it was a tad harsh. I always took the negative things said about GH with a huge grain of salt because it was only coming from a select few. I come here recently excited to join other keyboard enthusiasts and instead get **** on and mocked within the first few days. I sorely disappointed in this community today. Im almost certain now this will be met with some form of "dude get your panties out of a twist" or "whatever go back from where you came"

[FunkMasterJ]

I appreciate it zero. I completely agree there are nasty people over at /MK, but theres a good chuck there who just want to share in a hobby.

The vendor, due to an unfortunate lack of words on his behalf, mistakenly put down the whole r/MK community. The aim of the vendor was to defend Geek Hack only from a select few. My mistake was to generalize, quite by accident, and now I am having to pay for my haste. I am sincerely apologizing, as my comments were meant to be directed a select couple of trolls who are now banned from GeekHack. But don't worry, I won't make the same mistake again. I will refrain from entering any frays from now on.

I wouldn't say any...I'm just starting out in this great hobby, and have plans of building a %60 which would have included quite a few parts from them...his comments literally cost mechanicalkeyboards.com my business. As little or much as that may have been. I personally won't be doing business with them...

To be honest, I deleted my previous post because it didn't contribute anything positive...but I will say that as much as Ripster might incite a lot of drama...he does make a good point...if you go to /r/mk and search for mechanicalkeyboards.com ...that subreddit does/did direct a lot of business their way. Zero realizes this now and he goes back because he realizes that his words cost the company/business money?

At the end of the day, I should have done what I wish everyone else would do...ignore bull**** posts from ripster when he posts "HEY GUYS LOOK! GH Hates us!"...and vice versa....if I took my own advice, I wouldn't even be typing this. Take care.

No...I apologized because the words did not come out right and I suffered a gross foot-in-mouth infraction for it. Mechanical Keyboards, Inc.'s reputation speaks for itself, even on reddit.
