Hmmm, I've sort of grown a bit fond of his intellect.
It took me awhile but after reading some of his posts, really reading them instead of just glancing and reacting, I see he brings a lot to the party.

:)

He's the guy that we love to hate. Or hate to love, can't tell :p

Either way, he's the guy we can point the finger at if sh*t hits the fan. We need him :laugh:

The thread on guru3D is officially gone. For those who want more proof a moderator has been asked so that I can post a dump of the convo.

As for more reasoning why TPU is bad mouthed this has come up in conversation with me to post in this thread specifically.

http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2748937&postcount=125

all of the people complaining are little children who need to go outside and play.

This part specifically...Mind you I stayed out of the windows 8 thread since it has become very opinionated and loud with little to no reference to back shit up. In fact I believe TPU's own comparison was tossed out by a certain member...

That's a what I think is a big part of the scene overall changing, and you are right, I see the same elsewhere, and kinda think cdawall was just trolling. Most of the actual regular posters are still here...I know they are, since I read nearly every thread. :p

Like where's everyone rocking the new AMd and nvdia VGAs and new FX and IVB CPUs...?


really...nowhere, and hardware OEMs say the same, with sales figures. The industry itself has cut back, in a big way. That's what happens during a recession.
I think that the regular posters are still around and just lurk more. You get tired of answering the same old questions over and over again.

And I have noticed the recession too. Less people wanting to buy (not just computers), and it seems as though low-balling is a new past time.
You want to tax your system then its time for crunching (WCG) or folding (F@H) :toast:

I used fold all the time. But the electric bill kills me now. :mad: That and I don't have any Nvidia GPUs' worthy of folding.

this....i just dont understand how someone can get mad at someone else spending their money in their budget...smh

Most people end up feeling 'righteous' about something, and when they do, and have the opportunity to communicate it, they end up trying to shove it down someone's throat. Figuratively speaking, of course. Oh so much easier when you don't have to say it to that other person's face.

It's an even more powerful compulsion when there's some reasoning behind it, that at least somehow backs up the 'righteous' feeling.
