For what it's worth...I started working on my new neighbor this evening so I can hopefully get her to model a keyboard, any keyboard. I'll blow her away with a Kinesis Advantage at the right moment when she least expects it. She's really a looker...platinum blonde with a vicious beach tan and light blue eyes. If I succeed, there will be serious keyboard porn to distribute to you guys.

I will love you forever if you pull this off.

I also removed my previous post to Brian and took it to PMs. As everyone has started apologizing in the Site Announcements thread I feel it's right if we let the fighting subside in all of the other threads.

Long live GeekHack.

- Typed on one of my 5 boutique keyboards that I've purchased since joining here, and I don't regret a thing.

But...are you saying the people that were trolling and being the 'drama mamas" are the ones flocking to KS? Doesn't that sort of...you know...say something about it's future?

 
Ach, that's very one-sided. It could be said that you are spending a lot of time mothering this little drama yourself. Driving a wedge between two factions (such as they are, being only a thimblefull of people on either side that are making most of the noise) is not a benefit to anybody. Gross generalization and name-calling is no way to move toward any resolution.

Such Drama.  Nobody reacted this way when Princess Runeazn created his keyboard forum.

 
More or less the drama is because the people are split between people who like you, and people who hate you, more than people who like a new forum and people who doesn't.

This should feed your ego more than create doubt's about the drama...:happy:

True.
I was frustrated and tried to calm a few things down last weekend. Didn't have an effect. I've really let unbridled emotions come out after that. I've been as much of a prick as I can be. That's pretty damn pricky. I did apologize to Brian and Acfrazier, so I'm definitely a remorseful prick.

I'll stop and only deal with keyboards from now on.

Sorry for my involvement in this mess, but you all know how upsetting it can be.

Also, that post (above to Acfrazier)) was not meant to be trollish, I was being serious.

Hmm.....

Maybe I SHOULD have put this in Off Topic section.

Saw this two nights ago with the family.  4/5 stars mainly to see the great actors in drag - Guy Pierce! - Agent Smith and Elrond! - The Limey Terrence Stamp  .  MINUS One out of Five Boobs for all the boobs being on men.
[video=youtube;M7t9vP9SVwc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7t9vP9SVwc[/video]

OOPS!  I just changed it to 3/5 boobs.

Just remembered the ping pong scene.

NSFW!!! THIS IS NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED!!! (and Flips).

Ok, understood. I doubt I could stop you commenting on all this if I tried, and that's not my intention. Let's just try and make it a bit less polarized from now on.

Anything I've typed that is not related to the purpose of this "keyboard forum" is effectively worthless, whether it be positive, negative, trolling, cute chicks or whateva. I have no special rights or privileges. I knew I would be as guilty as the others when I made those stupid posts. Who knows maybe by lowering the bar even more it helped it improve faster. I vented and I'm done.

I have some cool keyboard projects to advance.

Back to keyboards.

Yes that's all it's about.  haha hoho, so funny.  Unless of course you got ****ed and got a $150 loudly ringing keyboard.  Then it isn't so funny.  But nice troll.  Prick.

If there is another forum for this issue, i think that's great because i hope that this maybe will help that the hassle on GH will come to an end.
If you  got f***ed and got a defective keyboard RMA it!

How is it a "hassle" and how is it the posters fault of they got a ringing keyboard?  I don't think some of you fanboys appreciate what it's like to have a keyboard that rings for a full second after you stop typing.  Not even an old clunky Model M does that (typing on one now).

When a problem affects other people looks always irrelevant, isn't it ?

Guy Pierce laughing hysterically at the end, while his friends are appalled and horrified really takes the scene all the way.
