Get a real force )
This. And make sure it's a 55g. The lower weights are okay, but the 55g feels night and day better, and is more tactile than BS or MX Blues in my opinion. Tactile keyboards mean that you don't have eight year old girl or 90 year old with carpal tunnel hands. Be a man. You're welcome. LOL.
This post gave me cancer.
Lighter weights are lighter typing. Lighter typing is better typing. Forget about the stupid illusion of heavier switches being better, they slow your typing down and are damn near impossible to use while gaming.
Not everyone has hands like a child, and it doesn't change typing speed for people that bottom out anyways. Also, you're saying that Model M's are bad for typing with that statement, which is silly.
I guarantee that my hands are significantly stronger than yours, that I type probably twice as fast and could do so on a microwave-keyboard. My fingers are very long and Model Ms would be much better for typing if they were lighter. You don't know a thing about typing, so I suggest you go into an area more fitting your expertise, like bragging about your 55g Thorpe being better than others' 45 g.
Dude you're so thugged out I almost pissed myself in fear. I type around 80 words per minute, so you must type 160 on a microwave. I bet you also have twelve fingers and can type with your toes. I'm not the fastest typist, but I have better **** to do than play typing games all day to practice, then tell everyone how awesome I am because I type so quickly. I have a life outside of trying to type faster than everyone else, something you probably know nothing about. I suggest you go into an area more fitting your expertise, like ethugging and talking about how you have stronger hands than people you have never met. I really don't care how fast you type, and I type fast enough to be as efficient in my line of work as a network engineer as I need to be. I'm sorry my hands aren't as strong as yours because I don't spend all day jerking off in front of a computer building my hand muscles then trying to act hard. Also, I have a 45g, so I can make the comparison to a 55g. It seems that not that many people on this board have tried the 55g, so I was just giving my opinion, because I think people will be happy when they try it, not because I'm being some sort of elitist. Again, I HAVE BOTH 45g and 55g, along with pretty much the entire collection of MX switches, BS, and ALPS. I like the 55g better. Deal with it.
I really care very much about how cool you think you are because you have no skill at typing despite having dozens of keyboards and want to drown that out with some sad little excuses to your own inadequacy. Honestly you just seem incredibly angry that you've been told how much of a self-important little twat you are. Unlike you, I am skilled at something. I don't see you on airs *****ing about how basketball stars brag about how good they are, so you could not be an angry teenager and try to use that as an excuse.
I'm an extremely active athlete, and therefore I have much stronger hands than you. All your arguments are based on the fact that I haven't mentioned why things are, but if you really want to know, there you have it. Unlike you I don't waste away my life trying to make people who annoy me seem inferior, nor do I act like a pathetic 'look-how-manly-I-am' elitist. My words may have been arrogant, but people like you deserve to be shut up.
I have a lot of keyboards because I make really good money as a network engineer and wanted to try a lot of keyboards, and they were a tax writeoff since I'm a business owner. As far as angry, you're the one that overreacted, I just answered in the same tone. Again, I don't give a **** how fast you type. I type fast enough and have no need to type faster. Also, you have no idea who I am or my fitness level. Even if you're stronger than me, I don't care, it doesn't change my life. I'm a lot more fit than most people, and that is okay with me. The only sport I've ever been involved in is boxing, which requires two balls BTW, so if you play any other sports I really don't care. If you also box, then take out your anger in a ring or a bar. Also, since you can't seem to read, I'm not trying to be an elitist, I'm just spreading the 55g gospel since not many others are doing it. This is a keyboard forum, so I didn't realize that talking about a keyboard would make someone so butthurt. I never said I'm the manliest MF on the planet, you seem to have cornered that market. I just made a dry joke about how heavier keyboards require you to not have weak hands, get a sense of humor.
