Mechanical Keyboards (Mysteries Revealed)

You're rapidly approaching his level of delusion though.

Neither of us are delusional..  We may come off as uber-passionate..  But we are well aware of the boundaries purposefully crossed..

It's all in the name of Intrigue..  Had we said what we said in plainer undressed words, the voice would drift below the Commercial howling that is the paid-adverts..

What additional hype is there?  No one claims it has magical properties..No one claims it'll make you a faster typer than Cherry, or more accurate, or cure you of your ailments...

Pretty sure they do, actually. Have you ever looked in on one of those Topre circlejerk threads?

[Actually, I can totally buy that certain people can type faster and/or more accurately on Topre switches than some MX switches. The bounce on the upstroke is a tangible advantage.]

I haven't seen any of that...They do call it Godlike, etc...referring to how it feels....Or how it sounds...etc....Some people probably disproportionately talk about how good feels but that is probably proportional to the amount of hate it gets...and a good amount of that hate is ignorance.  You have some people that hate it that only tried it for an hour or so..some people that hate it and have NEVER tried it and you have a small fraction that have actually given it a good amount of use and still come to the conclusion they don't like it (which I think it perfectly fair).

How can ALL keyboards be Mechanical?

This guide makes no sense.

I'm used to blue and jacob.. Jacob has been on me ever since the 4k monitor incident.. LOLOL

I�m not trying to give you a hard time. (Well, maybe a little.)

I just think you often say things in a very authoritative/confident way without actually having terribly strong evidence to back you up. I do this too sometimes (which is why I notice it in other people),

And that's exactly why you come off as such a prick sometimes.

Neither of are delusional..

I think that pretty much sums it all up really :-)

[Oobly]

All keyboards that have a switch mechanism are mechanical by definition. The only board types I can think of that are not are laser projection and capacitive touch.

Lets stop arguing minor points, the OP is accurate enough to help a noob as it is meant to be. This is not the way to treat a helpful and informative thread.

Is that what you thought that was?

Sounds like to me TP4 is trying to make little minions that agree with his way of thinking...

He has some nice theories in there...A bit short on information though..a lot of opinion wrapped up to appear as possible fact...

Everyone who is typing @ GH scrubs level agrees with everything I've said..

's ok Oob..  You can't become as legendary as I am without makin' a few enemies...

The natural consequence of having left a trail of dead topre-fanatics, as I boldly carry keyboarding beyond a simple shopping addiction here on GH..

-  People using keyboards

-  People typing FASTer on keyboards

-  People saved from RSI


This is the future I've plotted,  not the persistent repurchase of equipment that people already have ten of..

I knew what you meant regardless of the typo.
