Title: Can someone please tell ripster geekhack is sorry or something?
Post by: drossen on Thu, 09 October 2014, 18:40:12
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.

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.

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 :(

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.

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

Maybe R00TW0RM was a conspiracy! :eek:

You should read this thread (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=59282.0) and this (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=58751.0) 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).

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.

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.

I haven’t heard any convincing accusation against ripster


The accusation that has gained considerable traction here is that Ripster was responsible for the "Rootworm" attack that nearly destroyed this forum a couple of years ago and permanently erased a monumental library of keyboard knowledge.

As far as I can tell, that accusation has never been confirmed or dis-proven.

Whoever actually did that thing is a horrible, petty, selfish, cruel, ugly person with a very serious problem.

Having said that, when I joined this forum in early 2011, Ripster was a figure of great knowledge and authority who was very helpful and encouraging to everybody around.

He was single-handedly responsible for much of the information in the wikis and guides, as well as excellent and informative photos. For this we are forever indebted. Personally, I attribute a sizable portion of my keyboard knowledge directly to him.

But, some months after I joined, what I had originally observed as a sharp and sarcastic wit started rapidly degenerating into something truly cruel and ugly. He picked fights and made personal attacks which got him temporarily, then permanently banned from both Geekhack and Deskthority.

All the gross behaviour, which is said about ripster, do I see in this thread! Seems some people have fun verbally hitting on people who are stigmatized. If screaming like a child would be a reason to be banned, then how many people should be banned from GH? 50% of all users?

The accusation that has gained considerable traction here is that Ripster was responsible for the "Rootworm" attack that nearly destroyed this forum a couple of years ago and permanently erased a monumental library of keyboard knowledge.

As far as I can tell, that accusation has never been confirmed or dis-proven.

Whoever actually did that thing is a horrible, petty, selfish, cruel, ugly person with a very serious problem.

Having said that, when I joined this forum in early 2011, Ripster was a figure of great knowledge and authority who was very helpful and encouraging to everybody around.

He was single-handedly responsible for much of the information in the wikis and guides, as well as excellent and informative photos. For this we are forever indebted. Personally, I attribute a sizable portion of my keyboard knowledge directly to him.

But, some months after I joined, what I had originally observed as a sharp and sarcastic wit started rapidly degenerating into something truly cruel and ugly. He picked fights and made personal attacks which got him temporarily, then permanently banned from both Geekhack and Deskthority.

Can we get this stickied and pasted on the front page in giant bold text so people will shut the **** up about it?

The stupid circle jerk culture, low taste in mech boards and shoe picture are enough of a pissoff, yet even saying all that EVERY SINGLE TIME I have gone there I have seen ripster post something bitter about geekhack; or as he calls it: Geekwack.

out of curiosity of this thread I did a quick search for his comments. . .  my god, the guy has issues.
This guy is treating his bad break from this forum like a nasty divorce from a 20 year marriage. You can't be an adult and be THAT bitter over some stupid internet argument, really.
things happen and its unfortunate sometimes but you need to move on and drop things at a certain point.

its supposed to be fun guys.

the clicks are nice, the clacks are fun. don't forget that at the end of the day. goddamn

And I would agree.. I think keyboards look stupid when people just pile on novelty and artisan keycaps. (I usually just see it as showing off)

Outside of fn key sets, I don't think I have ever seen a keyboard with multiple novelty keycaps on it that really looked nice.

It's just my personal opinion, I keep my keyboards clean and clutter free. (And usually lacking much color)

I don't think I own a keycap set that isn't black or beige except for the green tea set I just bought.

Rip was here and was pretty damn good.
Rip was here and was disruptive.
Rip felt entitled and made the conscience choice to not play nice enough to stay.
Rip forced the hand (along with others, probably myself included) that brought about the mods.
Rip forced the hand that caused his permaban
Rip=Rootwermholio
Rip has made a home on reddit, I think some of it is pretty keyboardy, some of it is pretty hilarious (I'm a big personal fan of Geekwhackers), and some may be just <insert something here>.
Rip does not even want to return to GH.
Whats' done is done, and everyone and everything have evolved. There were winners and losers, but the entire issue is completely closed and will never be revisited.

GH still has way-too-big issues with disruptive trolls, it's a part of the inbred hacker culture here that allows the stupid stuff to get out of hand, more so than other forums, but there's a lot of good, and sometimes ya gotta allow some bad so the good doesn't get stifled.

TP:
All that happened LOOOONG before you popped on the scene. You're posts have nothing to do with what I posted. I didm't reference anyone else's "guesses" on what happened. I wrote the shortest exact synopsis of the whole thing from years ago, and the old timers here know this. Everyone that is new on GH only knows what they hear and can't make a judgement because there is some conflicting stories out there, almost all of which comes from reddit readers. And, the newer GHers, under normal circumstances wouldn't even know or care about a former poster on a forum (especially when that poster demanded 100% of their posts to be removed), and the only reason is because of reddit postings. It's quite silly actually. Anyhow, refer back to my post...the info is accurate, whether anyone chooses to believe it or now, or choose to spin it or not. The info can't be distilled any further than what I did.

dangwang was a normal dude that got a korean contact, started spamming the board with his pictures showing off. get a little on a high horse because people were jocking his ****. got fed up with mods here, specially mkawa and decided to leave.


he was also a big "people shouldn't sell clacks for so much money" blah blah blah advocate. which is easy when you're on the special list of "rare" clacks.

but then he went and sold all his clacks for $$$$ on DT and people lol'd at his hypocrisy. we had a couple arguments, but over all he was a good dude that let a little fame get to his head.

also i'll always miss his asian girls thread he had in his subforum when those were around.

but my curiosity is sufficiently sated for now, thanks again

well, cant be a martyr by telling the truth eh? he requested the permaban because he "didnt trust himself".

from my understanding there is no more to the story and that whole "one day ill release my version" is just crap to bring attention to himself. like i said, dan was cool and its too bad we had a fall out at the end.

Dan still is a good guy.

Some us get caught up in a forum that allows so much ability to yap with no controls. Those of us that do, get big heads (really?), feel self important (really??) and ultimately somehow manage to think we're better than others (REALLYYYY????).

People, it's a keyboard forum, nothing more and nothing less. It's not yours. You don't own it, there's no money in it, and IT's VIRTUAL!

All peeps that have left n anger or been banned were on the same path...and honestly...it's really not interesting except on a keyboard forum. In the real world it wouldn't get noticed. The take away from them, their actions, and this thread are some life lessons: Even on a virtual, obscure, niche keyboard forum, where the most heavily hit threads are for novelty keycaps, you aren't allowed to be too big of a butt. Even here, you get a virtual punch-in-the-face and are banned or muted.

Maybe that's why we never see much of iMav anymore...

He realized how much of a **** hole GH was turning into, wanted nothing more to do with it, so he handed the reins off to someone else...

No.
iMav is living his life in the real world, which includes many things NOT on a keyboard forum. He never was online hours a day, mega-posting, ever.

iMav brought in the mods like all other forums do because of people being ****butts and refusing to settle down when asked to. Say what you want, but the moderation was/is needed, and that's why the site has not self-destructed into anarchy. I have the perspective since I've been here since 2009.

Just remember, partaking on GH is voluntary, no one forces you to read/post. There is no cost. You know what is expected/not tolerated and the requirements are very minimal. You agree...you stay and play. You don't agree...you go. Simple.

The truth spoken by a "bard of vice and virtue" and believe me, I know A LOT about vices. Google me.

GH was severely broken, that's why the mods were started. It was only a few people that ruined the experience back during the Summer of Ping! and the following year, but that's all it took. There were no other options.

Anyone that is unhappy with how GH is now needs to evaluate their value system.
1-good rules designed for user enjoyment/protection
2-enforcement of those rules
Don't make it more complicated than that.

BACK TO KEYBOARDS!

Anything and everything ripster talks about is usually rectangular..

if you like keyboards...  get on GH and subscribe to all Ergodox threads.

If you love virtual nothing reddit so much, go spew that crap there and keep this virtual nothing forum one post cleaner. This is a silly and pointless thread on a good day, and the day isn't that good.

Old guy: Hoffman is running for President, but what do you really know about him? As a moderator of geekhack, deletion is instilled in him. Any thing that is worded wrong against him may have been deleted. How can you truly know?

CPTBadAss has literally thousands of posts undeleted. And he gives you ice cream.

Can you afford to be deleted?

I don't know, man. I went to reddit, and they told me all of you guys are mean and bullies, so I'm thinking ripster isn't the one at fault here. You guys should apologize, and just be nicer in general.

I think you need to check yourself BIG TIME. You're here in this virtual nothing forum as a guest, not to make demands. If you love virtual nothing reddit so much, go spew that crap there and keep this virtual nothing forum one post cleaner. This is a silly and pointless thread on a good day, and the day isn't that good. This thread exists because a couple bored kids are hopped up on virtual nothing reddit drama and posting over here in this virtual nothing forum. It's all virtual and at the end of the day means nothing. This thread should be closed, it going nowhere and is pretty stupid, including this post I'm writing.

Relax...breathe deeply...when you open your eyes you will remember your role is to not lose your temper but to be a positive role model and master of the craft of being a mouthpiece.

Damn, this **** still keeps coming back? I thought I had a hard time letting go of the past, but this is ridiculous.

Rip was here and was pretty damn good.
Rip was here and was disruptive.
Rip felt entitled and made the conscience choice to not play nice enough to stay.
Rip forced the hand (along with others, probably myself included) that brought about the mods.
Rip forced the hand that caused his permaban
Rip=Rootwermholio
Rip has made a home on reddit, I think some of it is pretty keyboardy, some of it is pretty hilarious (I'm a big personal fan of Geekwhackers), and some may be just <insert something here>.
Rip does not even want to return to GH.
Whats' done is done, and everyone and everything have evolved. There were winners and losers, but the entire issue is completely closed and will never be revisited.

GH still has way-too-big issues with disruptive trolls, it's a part of the inbred hacker culture here that allows the stupid stuff to get out of hand, more so than other forums, but there's a lot of good, and sometimes ya gotta allow some bad so the good doesn't get stifled.

Rip Rip Rip .... aren't you sick of making it all about Rip. You explicitly and honestly made your point, in point form, without mentioning anyone besides Rip. How did Imav fit in with this picture? Do you have the knowledge that tp doesn't. Pretty darn good yeah. He did some dithering with coinage. Seemed dedicated to keyboards for the love of it not for the potential profits. He may even be a douche but he ain't no David Rees.

Gotta say, WHERE IS OUR WIKI? WHERE IS THE LOVE? WHERE IS RIPSTERS EQUAL? Is he on GH? I see Mr. Beardsmore making one hell of an effort.

sincerely,

lover of spin (cricket/Australia)

What if we're not?

I am reserving judgement until I find out for sure whether or not he was responsible for R00TW0RM

Eh, I've seen enough of him over on Reddit and dealt with him enough as a mod to say that if he behaved then like he does now, he had it coming and no apology is warranted.

Guys, I'm think I might've been the first or among the first to post that Rip may have been responsible for r00tworm..

Thinking about it now...  it makes even more sense,  because seriously.. GH is really small.. why would anyone bother attacking us.. we have no real agenda, and virtually no claim to purpose..

The only Drama @ the time of r00tworm had been Ripster's odyssey..

TP:
All that happened LOOOONG before you popped on the scene. You're posts have nothing to do with what I posted. I didm't reference anyone else's "guesses" on what happened. I wrote the shortest exact synopsis of the whole thing from years ago, and the old timers here know this. Everyone that is new on GH only knows what they hear and can't make a judgement because there is some conflicting stories out there, almost all of which comes from reddit readers. And, the newer GHers, under normal circumstances wouldn't even know or care about a former poster on a forum (especially when that poster demanded 100% of their posts to be removed), and the only reason is because of reddit postings. It's quite silly actually. Anyhow, refer back to my post...the info is accurate, whether anyone chooses to believe it or now, or choose to spin it or not. The info can't be distilled any further than what I did.

Loving it. Spin me a yarn mr candyman. "We can handle the TRUTH" .... NOT said by Jack Nicholson.

Believe me, the "mystery" of the whole thing IS FAR MORE INTERESTING THAN THE UGLY, STUPID, PLAIN, BORING TRUTH.

The truth:
It's already out there, but the refusal of the moderation team to discuss it makes it seem "crazy interesting and wonderfully secretive, and like a Kennedy Konspiracy.  There are a couple details here and there, but they amount to nothing. Really, they don't. I don't even mention those details to my girlfriend when we're doing the nasty. In other words, you are missing out on nothing. The mystery is propagated by newbies from reddit that weren't even into keyboards when the meltdown happened! That should put it into perspective for you.

Everything else is cool, I won't hunt you down with my jaw-pulled locomotive that says INPUT NIRVANA THUNDERXPRESS and park it on your chest. I'm saving that treat for the HEADLESS SOOPER-ROACH that I'm cowering in fear about.

I am not the type to miss someone. But generally I think it is a shame if you lose someone who is obviously enthusiastic about (some of) the things this website is about over stupid stuff.

I'm gonna go out there and say that yes, it was over stupid stuff, but it was his own choice. He was warned multiple times, and continued to be excessively obnoxious prior to action being taken.

Who the hell are you?

Once an asswipe always an asswipe....vindictive too:

I don't even mention those details to my girlfriend when we're doing the nasty. In other words, you are missing out on nothing.
american vernacular confuses me. why would have sex be referred to as 'doing the nasty'? :confused: regardless, it's not real sex if you're not yelling KEYBOARD SCIENCE every 30 seconds into your partner's eardrums

Speaking of highly valued keyboard items and Erotic Fluid Transfer At Point Of Sex, I hear that certain Korean members of our community doth scream 'Ooooop Ooooop Ooooop Opa Gangnam Style' at the point of no return. That maybe not be keyboard science, but screaming Kpop while doing the doggy and waving your arm above your head like bronco billy sure as hell beats playing with lego and yelling: "Oooh baby...come feel some oneness with cup rubber with me...nowww baaaaabbbbbbyyyyy!!!!!!"

"Oh honey, did you hear the 'thwack' of my ejaculate on the wall 6ft behind your left ear? It sounded just like the bottoming out sound on my TypeHeaven...."

"Oh I love you, you geeky self...now race me on typeracer - NUDE. I'm gonna whip your ass till you get hard again baby!" ;)

***R*pster wakes up***"OMFG what have I done to DangWang's LZ 84 SE! I know, I'll consult my own spill guide."

bullied much?

I'm here.


I am not the type to miss someone. But generally I think it is a shame if you lose someone who is obviously enthusiastic about (some of) the things this website is about over stupid stuff.

I'm gonna go out there and say that yes, it was over stupid stuff, but it was his own choice. He was warned multiple times, and continued to be excessively obnoxious prior to action being taken.

Who the hell are you?

Once an asswipe always an asswipe....vindictive too:

edit: 10,000th obnoxious post will be a doozy! Hopefully, he might preserve his "uniqueness" by staying off topic for the next 3000  :))

yawn.

you asked who was going to ask you if you were bullied before. i found it funny seeing as epzy asked that before so i copied and pasted. but continue your butt hurt if that lets you sleep at night.

Is that some kind of goal for monosyllabic dullards?

Are u edgy? Or a bit twitchy. Bullied much?

edit: I know u have worked real hard to achieve your online 'edgy' and obnoxious persona and am obviously chuffed to have one follower troll. I saw your first post as a newbie and you were as fandango would say 'seemingly pleasant' online. Whether you are or not IRL I don't care - I'm sure somewhere in some group buy you didn't get ur gh60 or whatever and got a little pissed and thence forth your true self emerged (ICHGAF). Your final form is now emblazoned in your avatar.

you obviously have your own little place carved out, once bragging that you could never get banned from GH and hold yourself proudly as ripster's ghost. But I aint seen much Keyboard Science coming out of you. Yawn, night fellow ape from a divergent more obnoxious tangent.

Dang, I go for 24 hours and this thread (which should by all rights be dead) is going at triple speed with only about 4 people substantially contributing, totally off topic, and pretty useless stuff after #260 posts. This goes to show, this isn't about dippy at all, it's about drama and flaming. That being said, there's an obvious need to have a place where peeps can screw each other without polluting the rest of the forum. I suggested that back in Summer of Ping! but I was told "the forum is no place for that behavior". Huh. Guess I was right after all.

Also, as a very brief side note, I believe the last on-topic, useful post made, was by me somewhere around post #195 or so. LOL

Ditto  hahahaha   Maybe it's better if we all STFU and walk away. I don't need a mod to close a worthless thread for me to not partake. I have the will power to bail. Keep in mind the benefit of keeping this thread open....trolling and ****posting stays here. Ha!!!

I think this topic should be about my awesomely nifty sig! I think it has a lot to offer (besides the link to the forever-borked Kinesis article I keep promising to fix).

I guess it's kinda fun...it's not really about Rippy. It's about the replay some of the more heady drama of the old days, and the music, politics of the era. So much has changed, lol.
