Post by: C5Allroad on Sat, 05 October 2013, 10:37:03
I absolutely love this forum! Ever since I made an account asking about keyboards all you were so helpful! This is the most addictive forum. I can't believe how much better than other forums this one is. All of you guys are so awesome! I want to know spend about $350 total on keyboards thanks to you guys....

The number was $150... But I now want a PCB mounted board.  :p
And some blank keycaps.... and cherry clear switches. o-rings as well.
My wishlist so far
Neo zelia 87

Ducky mini

Just be warned the ducky mini is only ISO. If you're an ISO user this is fine, but every other keyboard on that list is ANSI.

Wait wut?  I thought OP wanted to spend only $350?  Then you guys made fun of him.  And then OP went up to $750 in only an hour and a half of joining this forum?  That's $8.33 per minute.

This is the forum I've stuck with for the longest and have the most posts in (I hate forums) ... so yeah I'd agree I guess.

Same here.  I've amassed a thousand posts or so in another forum, and a few hundred somewhere else, but this place seems different somehow.

I feel the complete opposite, I literally only lurk GH. I've probably been visiting this site for well over six months, but I have like thirty posts.

edit: as opposed to other forums, I mean. I post on a video game forum quite frequently and on reddit quite a bit but with GH I just watch people foam over clickclacks and their HHKBs while I sit behind a 660c quietly giggling.

I was very active on OCN as I really like building/modding computers.  I was very heavy in the modding area (especially sleeving), but grew tired of the same questions being asked over and over.  Came over here when I got my first Ducky to get in on a group buy (The Toxic set which is yet to start), and ended up really liking it here.  There is the same feel as OCN with a handful of people that are very interactive.

I did the same with OCN.  But OCN is huge in comparison, so naturally it has a lot more traffic.  People ask the same beginner questions over and over here as well :)  People are on average the same--human nature!

True.  I probably just don't notice them as much on here as I am still learning myself. 

I think I have the basics down though:

Razer BW = bad, Korean custom = good.  Thorpe is king.  Go GMK/Cherry or go home.  Did I get it right?   ;)

Well according to GH ergodox is the queen, Topre is king. Razer is complete garbage. Well that's what I learned so far.

Post by: Topre on Mon, 07 October 2013, 00:53:31
Yes Topre is king. As king, I would say the egrodox is not my queen. The uTron is my queen. Razer is also not complete garbage, it's a great type of product that is just spelled wrong and should be straight razor.

One of the things about this forum is the lightweightness, often thanks to my great internet, I can't access other forums, so end up coming here.

It is a vortex, a blackhole, a money and time pit!

Vortex keycaps have horribly inconsistent legends.

You should source some utrons and sell them.

I have already looked into that a while ago, not worth the time for me to consider it right now.
