Sorry, maybe not worth a topic, but what the heck has been happening lately? First, no Ripster, then an ugly avatar returns not worthy of the "Number one Keyboard Expert in the World". I don't think I understand the IRQ thing either but oh well. Who is that ugly guy anyway?
Please go easy on my lack of unimportant knowledge.

Do you have a specific issue or just general irritation from repetition (it's being pedantic, not threadcrapping btw).

Justify it to yourself however you like, but repeatedly spamming your opinions everywhere clearly isn't appreciated.

In the ping thread I said the same thing 100 different ways. And was proved right since this issue sure doesn't seem to be a manufacturing defect with the Ninja.

So since you were either wrong or off-topic... how is that not threadcrapping?

Hi ripster

I don't think that is 100% accurate. It was clear that some people had switches that sounded different from other switches on their keyboard. You may have been right that this wasn't an issue with Filco or with the Ninja in particular but that isn't the viewpoint that came across in that thread- rather, your point of view seemed to be more "you are all hearing stuff in your head". Imagine the frustration of someone hearing an annoying difference in sound in their switches just to be called delusional.

I think some people have overreacted and have made a lot of comments in poor taste. I commented on one of them in the thread that was deleted. But even though some of them are immature, I don't think every one of these criticisms should be taken with a grain of salt. Some criticisms of you have been made by otherwise rational people (redpill, just for example) and should be listened to and acknowledged. For example your habit of derailing threads when you have nothing of value to add to them- it is inconsiderate to the OP of that thread, and, in other forums people usually appologize for unintentionally derailing threads.

My two cents. For the record I think you're a great addition to gh and your wikis have helped me a lot.

Title: where is the Geekgirl?
Post by: Soarer on Sat, 02 July 2011, 12:12:40

Ignore doesn't help when your antagonistic postings drag a thread out to 29 pages. And, let's get this straight - I enjoy the good stuff you post. Even the spamminess is just ripster being ripster (even if I do sometimes think 'oh, just shut up for once!'). But... well, you know what your intentions are when you make each post, so you know full well why you topped the poll.

Quote from: ripster;371983

Actually I don't derail threads. If you look at them the pics and videos tend to make a point.

Cut the crap, you might address the post topic with a phrase or a sentence if the OP is lucky, but then it's typically just a segue to post a giant unrelated pic and a link to whatever wiki/post you happened to be working on that day. Of course you derail threads.

But it would be tolerable if you'd cut the "#1 keyboard expert" crap. Every single post is about how great Ripster is, it's this self-glorifying forum masturbation routine that just GETS OLD. I'm hoping it's all tongue-in-cheek but with ~40k posts and two dozen wikis it makes a body wonder.

There are a lot of hobby forums out there, and they usually have someone who knows a lot about the subject matter. But I've never seen any of them go on such a bipolar tirade that swings from cheeky Lego pictures to cutting personal attack and absolutely endless self-****sucking. If it's all just an act that you think plays well, then buddy please take some feedback because it's not playing. At all. When you get all neurotic about this stuff, it's no longer clever and funny, it's creepy and concerning. Keyboards are neat and all, but let's face it bro, you're not curing cancer here.

Of course if this is how you really live your life then I just feel sorry for you and I hope that I didn't act as a minor enabler for this mania by donating extra keycaps to your cause.

In the end, there is always someone who is faster, smarter, and richer out there. Drop the "I'm so ****ing great" routine and 99% of this **** goes away, and we can all get back to discussing our favorite peripherals without sounding like a junior high locker room.

I'd say 1/5th of the posts on geekhack are from Ripster. The persistent derailing of threads and seemingly off-topic pictures and videos is sort of what makes geekhack geekhack. This is a mechanical keyboard forum filled with sometimes amusing and sometimes irritating off topic pics, videos and commentaries to keep things humorous.

Oh and for whatever my opinion is worth, I don't think Ripster thinks he's the #1 keyboard expert on the planet, I think he just thinks it's funny to claim it and piss the **** out of some people to keep posting it a huge way.

Title: where is the Geekgirl?
Post by: litster on Sat, 02 July 2011, 17:53:52

Ripster doesn't always derail threads. When he does, it would probably be for the same reason that I think the thread is heading toward the wrong direction. It is just that I don't bother to reply to state my opinion since I don't care as much as Ripster does.

There were a few threads that I started that Ripster replied. He didn't derail my threads, and was helpful. For example, my first Filco red had a stuck key, and I had to open the case and desolder the switch to fix. He was sympathetic and advised me to used canned air next time. He could have easily just trolled me and said I was stupid or told me I didn't really have a stuck key because filco is so well built. But he didn't. He even replied my PM.

This is iMav's forum. contrary to popular believe, there is no democracy on a private forum. iMav can do whatever he wants, even if he take favorites. He can do nothing or anything. If anyone doesn't like it, then don't be here. That's your freedom.

It is all about mutual respect. And don't take things so seriously. Enjoy your company.

I just come to say that for me it doesn't matter who is the troll or the threadcrapper but reading Geekhack in the last months have been a bad experience. Every single thread have been derailed by someone and have ended with stupid pics, stupid coments pretending to be funny when they're not and a lot of bull**** to see who have the biggest e-penis.

I'm not too old here but I can say that Geekhack have changed a lot since I started lurking here and after I registered as an user. Many good users have left or don't post the same as the used to do and I'm just sure that is because of the chaos that is Geekhack now and iMav have nothing to do with this, it is some users fault and the big amount of trolling people that came here just to bring bad manners and fight between Geekhackers.

I started to open Geekhack a lot less just because of that situation, a lot of people blaming others in every thread they can, others using bad words, the other one posting unrelated pics everywhere or meme pics too... I'm just getting tired and meanwhile this situation is being like this I will be only reading Deskthority as an interesting forum without crap everywhere instead of reading both forums and losing the time here reading stupid fightings between too many bad manners and some trolls.

The only reason those threads drag on as long as they do is that Ripster denies/ignores the problem and insults the people who got bad boards. It's a legitimate issue. If he'd stop trying to deny it and derail every thread, they wouldn't carry on for 30 pages.

It's neither sissy or FUD to expect a quality product after dropping $150 when the competitors tend to be $25-$50 less for a very similar product.

Also, I'll note that occasionally a number of accounts posting positive replies about Ripster use extremely similar terms and typing style. The previous estimate of 1 in 5 posts on Geekhack being from Ripster may be understated.

There sure are a lot of people going off topic! Sheesh!

What happened is that Ripster won the troll poll by a mile, and flipped his wig.

He cried to iMav, who made troll polls illegal even though there's been many before which included both iMav AND ripster.

Only this was the only troll poll that ripster actually won (and frankly, for good reason).

But the big baby couldn't handle the truth and thus, I was censored.

I think Ripster is kinda offbeat and funny. Isn't his new sig is a kicker? You guys don't think so? I doesn't matter what I think. I cruise this site more than I should, but not as much as many of you do, and I don't see exactly where all the lashing towards Ripster comes from although I see the complaints. Either I don't see what Ripster does that's so terrible, or I don't recognize it because it doesn't bother me or I don't take it too seriously. In any case, I guess I'm lucky. I tend to see the lighter side of things, but I DO get furious...but on a forum???

One thought on this....I am almost all about ergonomic, alternative layout, and some fairly closely related areas as you can see by my posts. Ripster is far too evolved to spend his time in those areas (see? I got a Ripster dig in!) so perhaps we never cross paths enough to send me into a hissy-fit-frenzy?? Dunno, but I would like to see the people that really do contribute to this pretty cool forum, back down a bit, take it in stride, try to see something better in it (or point blank ignore the issue, jesus, it's just a ****ing forum, not your girlfriends vagina), and get back to why you are here in the first place. I bet a bunch of us getting together would get along famously. I've met a few people here. Really neat peeps. This is valuable when it's fun, and completely worthless when it's not.

I'm asking all of you to try and change a tiny bit, and not engage, I think it will ultimately make you happier, and this place a lot less toxic. Be professional.

LOOK AT MY NEW SIG!!!!!

Sure it is, but why delete it and create the rule when ripster was included in several other troll polls? (and even iMav was included in some as well!)

It's only because ripster won the poll, and he *****ed and moaned about it. Now I'm repeating myself.

I don't really like repeating myself.

Post by: audioave10 on Sat, 02 July 2011, 22:27:21

Well, it appears I asked a rather serious question. I've learned alot here but have not taught much myself. I could certainly be called a troll many times but it was just all about fun. Lets face it...keyboards only involve a certain amount of exitement. I think mixing in pics, videos and other silly stuff (Legos included) has just made this a funner place. Imav has let this forum moderate itself mostly and I appreciate that. Other forums are so very restrictive. Since Ripster has very much built the Wiki for probably the best information on the net...I always cut him some slack. I guess the "Ping" problem has polarized some here and I understand the anger to feel like your product is defective while some won't listen or believe you. I do believe ANY product can be defective.
Having said that, it seems everyone has become more serious and angry about it. Please...both sides...go outside and get some air.

I also just thought...some of my other forums that I've been with for years don't even allow pictures to be posted in the threads. (talk about boring!)

EDIT: I still want the Geekgirl back!

I mainly just think the rule is stupid and that my thread shouldn't have been deleted (locked I would have understood).

Censoring posts that really attack or demean other members is one thing, but troll polls are always lulz-worthy and should be taken in jest.

In short, this is my reaction to the new rule and to my thread being deleted:

You know, with the amount of animosity I'm seeing shown towards Ripster (mainly from a couple people), I don't blame him for changing his avatar like he did. I see more negative posts towards him than coming from him. In fact, I noticed it before the troll poll went crazy.

And really, even questioning the value of the useful data he contributes? That just seems shameful.

Methinks that all involved probably don't even realize that they are almost derailing the board. A little maturity from everyone (and just a little since humor keeps things interesting) would help.

I'm glad the Geekgirl is gone. I've always hated that avatar. Like I've said before, she looks like a German transsexual in a LensCrafters commercial.

Still, ripster's choice of avatar since the Geekgirl has been... switching to fake German accent... "Sheit... am I saying zeis right? Sheizer? I mean ze crap zat comes out of donkey's arse."

Ripster needs to get an avatar that combines his Lego/bikini/keyboard obsessions with his Nazi-like self superiority. (...and I'm trying to say that in a good way :biggrin1:)

On a side note, I've always been disturbed by guys having cute girl avatars. I keep thinking I'm talking to that cute girl... and then I'm hideously disgusted when I realize it's a guy.

You forget asian, he loves to either be racist
i.e.
1.Ripster says "u rang rang? LuLZ, i kid i kid me chinese"
2.posts a cute asian girl as an "apology" for too much spam in a thread
3. pretends his son is a Korean genius yet he constantly fails to differentiate between Japanese and Korean.
4. posts annoyingly made "asian centric" vids to annoy ppl who do not agree with his P.O.V.

I think his asian fetish is worse than his keyboard obsession, this is just what i observed b4 i had to ignore all sigs and avatars and ultimately just ignore Ripster cuz of the spam, maybe he's changed and he's moving on to Germans.

You forget asian, he loves to either be racist
i.e.
1.Ripster says "u rang rang? LuLZ, i kid i kid me chinese"
2.posts a cute asian girl as an "apology" for too much spam in a thread
3. pretends his son is a Korean genius yet he constantly fails to differentiate between Japanese and Korean.
4. posts annoyingly made "asian centric" vids to annoy ppl who do not agree with his P.O.V.

I think his asian fetish is worse than his keyboard obsession, this is just what i observed b4 i had to ignore all sigs and avatars and ultimately just ignore Ripster cuz of the spam, maybe he's changed and he's moving on to Germans.

As to the OP, I gotta say I like the GG avatar best. but cripes, Ripster, would you just PICK SOMETHING and stick with it already! Every time I open a new thread there's a different one! The identity crisis is making me dizzy.
(But congrats - If the bellyaching continues at this pace for much longer, you may actually achieve a notoriety to rival webwit's!)

I dunno if there are only 2 female GHers - it looks like there's been some kind of PMS outbreak around here lately... PULL IT TOGETHER, PEOPLE!!

never heard "yellow devil" googled it, seems to refer to koreans, idk why, i did however, see "slope" used... in the karate kid iii, nope i didn't mean to see it but it was just playing in the background and the villian refered to mr. miyagi that way.

I prefer asian over oriental myself, to me oriental always seems to be used as the term for a classification of furniture and as such i don't want to be referred to as carpet or a vase, then I wonder how Persians feel, but oh well.

Racism is ignorance at it's most basic form (fear/hate what you don't know). But stereotype jokes, especially off-color ones can be some of the funniest ever, whether they are race, sex, age, geographics, etc. That's why they never seem to die off.

(Posted from the trailer, in the trailer park, next to 3 cars that don't run, in my wife-beater tshirt and mullet, drinking a case of PBR, 4 dirty children playing with trash in the dirt, playing an AM radio with coat hangar antennae, with my 17 year old wife I met on Jerry Springer when she was 15.)

I looked it up to, one of the definitions was "A derogatory term for the pokemon, Pikachu." Do we have Pikachu haters in the thread?

But seriously as I understand it back in WWII especially, this was a common slur used by American servicemen to describe the Japanese. Note though that as I understand it this was a play on the Japanese term "White Devil", or foreign/ghost/caucasian devil. During time of war dehumanization of your enemy makes it easier to kill them so is common and often government sponsored.

do any of you guys have a geek girl, you really seem to want like this "notion" of what a geek girl can be.

I have at home a little asian girl who is a chemical engineer, yea that's a pretty geeky job, she carries around a ti-85 in case she needs to make calculations. She's played every ff, except 12 cuz at the time we were playing EQ, in EQ2 she was my main healer, since i was the main tank and we were the best guild on our server cuz i couldn't be killed. She actually wants me to play ff4 (or was it 6) or at least try chrono trigger or play secret of mana with her, and i just don't have the time. Is she a retro gamer? maybe she hasn't played the copy of la noire i bought her cuz she's trying to complete the ff4 trilogy. Oh what is she reading? currently on her kindle it's game of thrones, cuz she loved the series so much, oh and she's still a girly-girl, i made a makeup wall for her, she has so much makeup it takes up an entire wall. What's she doing right now? she's watching anime.
She refuses to wear her glasses, even tho she doesn't need them (not 20/20 but still fine) cuz she thinks it makes her look dorky.

So is this the type of girl you guys dream of? cuz i never saw any of these attributes when i first saw her in college, just that she was cute and smart really.

Quote from: ripster;378167

I'm still pissed at Lanx though.

Calling me a racist.

There's a pretty good definition of "racist" at Urban Dictionary:

"1. racist
If you're a white man, this is what you are. It doesn't even matter if your wife is black and you have an adopted child from India, or how many black friends you have, somehow you're going to end up being a racist according to how the media portrays the white man as "racist whities".

All of this is funny because the white man is the one that is stereotyped as being racist, which is hypocrisy at its best. It's racist to assume that white men are racists. "

"2. racist
A term usually used by minorities to get out of any situation."

The funny thing is, I've heard more racist slurs coming from non-whites than I've ever heard from white people.
(...but I'm in Canada, of course, not the deep south USA)

Actually my son speaks and writes Japanese but is learning Mandarin this summer.

BTW, is Voixdelion my mom? Now MY MOM likes to ask the Chinese waiters if they are hispanic and has appallingly low multicultural sensitivity. I sure hope my mom isn't on this forum and sees the Retrobrite post. She wouldn't appreciate the Billy Mays or porn bleaching jokes and probably report my post.

Wait, what? What did I miss?

Or rather, if it isn't multi-culturally insensitive to ask it this way: What in the world does THAT have to do with the price of tea in China?

Now I'm really confused. What exactly are we talking about here?

If its still Ripster's avatar: You are welcome to use a pic of a real live Geekgirl and Photoshop an appropriate board under the hands: I think I have an 8x10 HQ copy of the original pic - the background is the actual bar though.
(http://geekhack.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=16616&d=1301915090)

I used to dance in the Catholic Schoolgirl Plaid if you like the traditional, but I like to be more creative and found a new use for my Renaissance Faire Garb as a theme set to some Sarah Mclaughlan music - how's that for geeky? (Bloody difficult to get out of that bodice in such constrained time limits though and took nearly 20 minutes to get INTO it!)

Best part was at the end of the night I'd go home in my sweats and glasses and no one had any idea it was me. Very Diana Prince/WW kind of thing (Diana -now there's a great GG! Lynda Carter style!). One of the other girls I worked with for a couple years used to see me come in to work the nights on her mid shift - she thought that I worked somewhere in the back office until she actually saw me change one evening when she worked a double shift. Too bad I don't have any pics with my other GG stripper pal - She was the first member of MENSA I ever met (or at least that I was aware of being a member).

MY OPINION...I like babes & boobs...( with all due respect to Voixdelion)

:) no worries. I think boobs are most excellent when properly used. I like them so much I bought myself a pair! Nice mid-range set, nothing ostentatious... just wanted to be able to wear Victoria's Secret catalog stuff.

You had me at Catholic Schoolgirl. I'm don't pay that much attention to Sarah Mclachlan except that she makes my kids cry with those SPCA "Arms of an angel" pet abuse commercials. It's hard on me to, I have a rescue dog and hate to think how he would have ended up had we not adopted him. Actually now that I think about it the dog we actually went to get apparently suffered that fate. They told us that dog had not socialized well with folks who came to visit so we got to visit with another dog instead which of course we brought home. That's playing a little dirty to imply the dog is off to the kill shelter if you don't take it but effective.

I hadn't thought of Diana Prince/WW, that would be an excellent replacement GG. Don't know much about MENSA, I've met some members but never made much of an impression on me I guess. I grew up in a small town where the head of MUFON lived, does that count? Hah, became kinda cool for a while there when the X-Files shined their xenon gas flashlights on it by mentioning it on the show.

Go Google a better word.

Oh yea, take your racist accusations and put them where they belong. At the ACLU or whateva, not our keyboard forum.

While you're googling, and after you consult with the other meatloafs for support, go ahead and PM me your best shot so we can both help keep the crap out of the forum. This place is not your personal toilet.

P.S. (that stands for "Post Script") Have a sense of humor. This is a skin thread in the "off topic" subforum. Take your meatloaf hate elsewhere. Post skin here or go attend another free meatloaf event.

I can't wait till they give you another break from "work" so I can be entertained by yet another 'mensa-ism'.

HEY, I just realized the new image uploader won't let me use previously loaded pics in the Forums. Only the Wikis.

That truly sucks.

If I go into Advanced view manage attachments, I see my most recent images and a handful of older ones but a lot aren't shown in that view. Now if I go to my account settings and look at attachments there I can see them all. I can manually copy the URL from there and then paste it into a forum messages between (http:// and ) like below (have to do it manually since the new tool says it's an invalid URL). Not perfect but it works. using the attachment ID between doesn't seem to work for whatever reason.

Was watching Daniel Tosh, apparently there's a reason that you don't see many successful white rappers, some evidence below. While I think Tosh is funny, it's not something I usually go out of my way to watch. His show came and and normally I would have looked for something better but I couldn't find the remote and was too lazy to either find it or walk over to the TV, hah. Guess I just narced myself out for being lazy. But I was working and it was just background noise anyway. I'm not racist but as Forrest Gump would say, Funny is as funny does.

BTW, is anyone else having trouble viewing videos linked using the new [ video ] [ /video ] rather than the old [ youtube ] [ /youtube ] tags? I can still view the latter no problem but the former doesn't work right, at least not on this old Ubuntu laptop with Firefox 3.6.13.

Thanks, nice and soothing.

This one doesn't have glasses so maybe not appropriate for here, perhaps I should remove.

I've had a long line of pet hounds, many of them beagles (2 beagles right now).

They're sweet and loyal, but not the best problem-solvers. :P
That keen nose comes at a price.

I'm currently favoring Basset Hounds as my favorite hound breed, but still haven't owned a dachshund or a bloodhound :P

My beagles problem solving ability seems to improve, within limits, in direct proportion to the deliciousness of the motivation. The nose can short the brain to ground or focus the brain, all depends on the motivation.

I just dished out to you what you were dishing out to others. Don't engage with someone on a personal level here, it's not the place. That's all I've done in my posts...reflected it right back. It seems to make people aware.

I prefer the key caps my unicomp has than the ones my das has. They are thicker, they have a rougher texture, they shine less quickly.
I think it's because unicomp uses PBT plastic whereas das uses ABS. I definitely prefer PBT, key caps have a lot to do with the feeling you get while typing, I think.
Leopold's key caps seem thicker and seem to have a better texture than filco's key caps (from the pictures at least). This is why I bought a leopold instead of a filco.
I could have replaced the key caps with KBC PBTs, but I didn't have that much to spend.

I'm not attempting to be you, I don't act like you, you're not my hero. And I'm not a poser.
I remember people by their avatar, not by their username. I'm that kind of visual guy.
I was shocked when you removed it. I'm not posting often (I don't have 38k posts), but I read a lot.

This has affected me as much as the new design and new logo. I'm going to change it when you'll change yours back to geek girl.
Well I can change it if you really want me to, not a big deal to me.

BUT DON'T CALL ME A POSER.

Actually, one of the earliest members (Chloe) was a girl, and she laid a lot of the framework down for what we know about keyboards in this forum. There was also another girl, Cchan/Tales, who was also a very strong member. As far as I can tell, they got bored with the sausage-fest around here and went on to better things. There are still some women here, though, they just typically don't come out and say it.

That's a very good explanation.

Girls do a lot of stuff guys do though; like one of my best friends who does gaming. I can't complain really; gaming with a pretty girl is a lot better than bespectacled nerds with buck-teeth and bad acne.
