Can someone please tell ripster geekhack is sorry or something?

[drossen]

So he will drop his attitude problem and ego that plagues reddit. Hasn't it been like 3 years? How can he keep up this high school tirade against this forum.

"Normally, when something bothers me on the internet, I just ignore it, get over it, and move on with my life. I'm going to break the chain in this case and advise you to do the same thing" -ripster


I now see why he was banned and why a lot of people seem to hate him, unfortunately most reddit users don't realize the backstory and think his attitude is funny.

He has some issues. Not anybody's problem but his own at this point.

Interesting first post - who are you really?

[demik]

bby pls

[drossen]

Well that's sad to hear. He has great commitment, effort and knowledge, but his constant sarcastic, passive aggressive and negatively focuses comments just bring it all down.


As for me,

I'm nobody, found MX love by chance blind ordering a steel series 7g for a black friday price of $80 Now I own 5 mech keyboards, two track balls, and too many key caps.

Found r/mechanical first, then geekhack, so I was never around to read ripster posts here live.

I frequent dual sport and car forums, but I've been lurking too hard to make an account here.

[ceflame]

Atleast it's thanks to ripster that a lot of people learned about geekhack.. including myself. Don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.

I followed the same route. Started at r/mechanical and moved here. His work is informational, but he has some attitude problems that get ahead of that.

ripster was great here. informative and an ******* if you didnt even bother to research. how it should be.

then mods came around and ruined everything (myself included). certain mod with control issues did something naughty that pushed him over the egde. dont blame rip for being mad. should he get over it? yeah probably. but his subreddit is funny even when he was attacking me

[fohat.digs]

If Ripster is not responsible for the "Rootworm" attack that virtually annihilated geekhack a couple of years ago, wiping out a huge storehouse of deeply informative wikis, then yes, he has been falsely blamed.

[Firebolt1914]

I can already tell this post is on /r/ripster without even checking.

[rowdy]

I wouldn't think he would do something like that - who would he rip on then?

[heedpantsnow]

Live and let die.

But then the question remains: who else had the motive and the ability to do such a thing?

Maybe R00TW0RM was a conspiracy!

Atleast it's thanks to ripster that a lot of people learned about geekhack.. including myself. Don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.

I came to GH from Google. GH is always a first in the result. Didn't know about r/mechanical until much later.

I believing I also found GH through google. I saw r/mech around the same time but I came to GH first since it was a better community and had more things going on.

[Novus]

His attitude is understandable when you see or experience some of the **** that goes on around here.

[drossen]

That's not a reason for him to spread it around. We have been graced by a r/ripster post for this thread with his usual dismissive tone.

[epzy]

Ripster is on gh, he goes by the name of demik

****, that's me.

[C5Allroad]

Wasn't there a thread somewhere talking about him? And linked his reddit and stuff...? I think it was in off topic like this one.

Troof.

eh, beats brown nosing mkawa.

[Coreda]

You should read this thread and this if you want more info on why he was banned, his character, and some explanation on the thing.

Was on GH first, but for a while checked out the sub, which has its own merits, but could see he was using the ban as a platform for point-scoring against GH and to generally **** on the forum, and after reading about some of his history and behavior I didn't feel like re-visiting the sub tbh (plenty of good people there, no doubt, including many GH'ers).

[Novus]

I thought MW was ripster.

[exitfire401]

You would think so, but nope.

[Novus]

We should start a Mafia-like game.
At the end of each day, you are allowed to accuse one person of being ripster or a ripster sockpuppet as he likes to call it.
If you correctly identify ripster, you get a cool keycap or something. If you falsely accuse somebody incorrectly, you die.

I've not considered the possibility that Pai is Ripster...

He does really have an out there persona...

Perhaps Ripster fabricated it so outlandishly, such that we wouldn't know it was him..

But, Pai doesn't really talk about keyboard stuff...  so... hmmm....

Everything anyone ever says makes sense..

It comes down to which transcription program you got installed..

I'm still on Pai-v0.2 alpha and 1Wolf-v0.4 beta... 

Hopefully the full release will be better

inb4 rip being a hoffman sockpuppet

[frosty]

Why does OP have 0 posts?

[Computer-Lab in Basement]

Maybe... HE'S Ripster!

And he's asking for forgivness???

[paicrai]

the plot thickens

[SpAmRaY]

Haven't you guys learned by now that when ripster runs out of things to say he either 1) digs up super old posts and comments on his subreddit like it is something new OR 2) every few weeks he creates a new sockpuppet account and makes some random ripster thread here

[Eszett]

Everyone has the right to be an *******. If he is competent even more so. I haven’t heard any convincing accusation against ripster, besides something flimsy as “he got a problem with his attitude”, “he is arrogant” etc. There are a lot *******s here on GH, who are highly reputed. I think he pissed off an admin personally. So it is a personal vendetta against him.

[microsoft windows]

RIPSTER IS AN IDIOTIC MENTALLY DERANGED CHILD MOLESTER WHO DOESN'T USE WINDOWS 98. HOW CAN YOU EXPECT HIM TO BE A REASONABLE INDIVIDUAL?
