Fuus' Keycaps - Constructive Criticism only

[MattBuzzy]

Wow what an amazing edit. 

[fuus]

If you guys are really jumping on that, it used to read 'have a look at my interestingly priced caps.' I knew they were high for what I had, but I thought I might get a sale or two.

Yeah Dan, look at how there're no arguments!

[Acetrak]

They want you to troll GH though -____-

[Glissant]

I'm all for lowbrow humor, but this is just boring.

Don't forget childish.

Childish from Dan I would agree. I can honestly say to you, this was not intended as a troll. Accept that or not, that's how it is!

Pretty hard to believe that from reading the thread responses. Sigh my jimmies

[MattBuzzy]

Well if it really was not a troll and you wanted to sell caps my advice would be to take more time and care, develop a technique, make keys that you would buy, then attempt to sell them. Start at a low price, a couple at $2 and see what people want, when you generate interest and your skill gets better thats when you can charge more.

That would be my advice for anyone wanting to sell anything.

[DanGWanG]

I'd say take the criticism from me in this thread and hand them out for free for others to judge.  In fact, send me one and I'll write you a complete review from an unbiased perspective based on quality in comparison to other similarly priced keycaps.

[fuus]

thanks for the feedback Matt, as many of you may have noticed I have reduced the price to £5 plus shipping. Think what you might

[telepete]

Best line in the whole thread was the part about being 'addicted to weed'. I had a good laugh at that. Feel free to help yourself to a book.

Some people just aren't smart man.

[MattBuzzy]

No problem fuus, I have no reason to have anything against you, I could merely comment on what I saw.

[baldgye]

I wish a mod would ban this guy, some newer guy might see them and think they are one of the cup-cake caps that where about a while ago going cheap, given that they are basically a crappy knock-off...

[whiskerBox]

Why is it that we are discussing this? Don't like em Don't buy em!

Enough said, we don't need vigilante mini mods running around preaching the good word of ethical keycap construction.

Vote with your wallet!

Thanks for saying what I was trying to say in much better words!

And another worthless thread...

[dirge]

my control key!

[Sifo]

Where do I get that arrow pack?

[dirge]

you can make it very easily, the distressed keyboard look I think will be a hit in 2013.  Just need some indian caps worn to hell and some marker pen and tears.

I love how the control key has been hit so hard their anger has bent it.

[bavman]

I'd pay $20 for that control

[demik]

what the **** happened here.


some of you take this **** way too serious. arguing over ****ing pieces of plastic?

son.

cmon son.

[MattBuzzy]

Lol that comment fits so perfectly with the Carl avatar XD

[demik]

well to be honest, all these custom keycaps look like **** to me.

especially those baked goods ones.

yet nobody jumped on dude's ass about his ridiculous prices.

but i guess if you get on the good side of certain geekhackers, you're okay.

now calm down ladies, as whiskerbox said.. don't like it? don't buy it.

There is a whole thread dedicated to it, but you don't frequent DT so I guess you missed it

[inlikeflynn]

And another worthless thread...

indeed it was as half the people cannot be bothered to read your posts to understand what you are trying to say.
I for one would like to see the classifieds rules changed with most of the ideas you proposed

"don't like it, don't buy it" doesn't work when GH itself is protecting the shady sellers with its current rules...

[demik]

lol wat?

well, he has a vendor forum and continues to sell soooooooo, yeah.

you are correct.

but he still sells, well sold, on GH.

and people still paid his prices.

and nobody gave him as much **** as they are giving fuus

He also didnt publicly admit to trolling on another forum

[demik]

well, if i remember correctly the dude's sig was "i never said they were art"

so, he knows what he was doing.

making a quick buck off a fad.

Id say they both got an equal lashing

[Rapid]

I'm not going to lie, being a new member around here the one thing I've realized is the ridiculous pricing on everything. A lot of guys that have been around here just exploit the newer/desperate members with ridiculous costs. As much as I'd like a brobot/cc (even if you could find it for that matter) to make my setup look unique, prices multiply insanely because of "rarity".

It's nice to see unique caps like the "baked goods", however I believe that people should show/create tutorials on how to make these things on your own if you can't afford their caps/ they're not available (cc's). That's what this community should be about imho, not making a quick buck.

yeah, no.

dt probably gave him a lashing because most of the people there feel superior to GH.

GH's "lashing" was minimal.

and the nail polish people all got a pass too.

[DanGWanG]

It started as a great constructive criticism thread, which was the initial intent.  The other nail polish people were given criticism as well...

[demik]

yeah, now i have no idea what you are talking about.

are you addicted to the weed? (sorry, that's the only part i caught that was hilarious)

[DanGWanG]

You're gonna pull that card too?

[demik]

i was mocking him >.>

[razorsharpgears]

[demik]

at least post the original man

[The_Beast]

Dan is getting "potting up the weed"

what's going to stop him, NOTHING

[keymaster]

This thread was entertaining to say the least. Although I don't find his keycaps or the steep price appealing, OP deserves so much bashing. As someone in the thread already mentioned: if you don't like 'em, don't buy 'em. If his creations are not appealing enough to sell then everything will work itself out, i.e., the termination of production.

[Michael]

Wrong.

demik stop getting all potted up on weed. You're drunk.

I bet y'all drinking that wine, too, weren't ya. Been smoking them tweeds and everything. Wearing the old clothes all half off your ass. What the hell's going on today?
