Link. (http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=558560#post558560?utm_source=Corsair&utm_medium=Facebook_Twitter&utm_content=CustomKeyboard_Forum&utm_campaign=SocialMedia) Featured on Corsair's Facebook today.

Not to feed Ripster's ego or anything, but I wonder if "jongalt26" is a member here too, or just Ripster same***ging on another forum?

They kind of made that keyboard look ridiculous with the WASD keycaps. I didn't think the K90 (K60? Both?) looked particularly good in the first place, though.

Hey that guy stole MY pic too! Remind me to complain about that.

And with ripster it's likely same***ging. He's a shameless self-promoter and his winning of the #1 poll was based on bribery and sock puppets.

His wording doesn't sound like ripster. "This goes to show" is too passive sounding to be coming from ripster's board.

That keyboard looks horrid.

It looks tasteless and overworked. I think he wanted to do many different things to his keyboard but didn't coordinate the effort. Or he just has a really bad eye for color.

I wonder how Corsair feels about competitor advertising on their forums.

It's explicitly against the rules, but that particular thread is about keycaps and even has admin approval posted in it since Corsair doesn't sell just keycaps.
