While I agree in concept with what you say, it still sounds like a defense of SpyMac... and that is just never gonna fly with me, or most anyone with a memory undiminished by drugs or brain damage. We're talking about SPYMAC.. the people that swore up and down the iWalk was real.. and posted reasoned (in a fashion) arguments as to why it MUST be real. People who defend SpyMac remind me of people who still talk about how crop circles couldn't be man made. The term I prefer is "inbred, hillbilly, unteachable stupid."
Don't criticize which people? The people who post stories like the iWalk and then stand there pounding on their chests defending the veracity of them, or the people who are inbred? I can see how belittling someone for being inbred is unfair, as they obviously had no control over it.. so I will apologize to anyone who took offense at the inbred comment. I won't apologize for belittling SpyMac. I don't care that they posted the iWalk story. I don't really even care that they repeated again and again how it was the gospel truth.. when I minded was that when it repeatedly was shown to be fake, and never materialized, they said in one breath how they got taken in by a fake (hey, it happens, no harm done) and then in the next they would say that it was STILL a real project and was just delayed. I am not talking about users comments in the forums, I mean real "news" posts on the main site.Originally posted by HenryR
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. "inbred" etc.. you're referring to REAL people -- yes think about it - real people, I'm sure with families, emotions etc run spymac. You can criticize SM for the iWalk as long as you want, but many others have gotten over it... please don't criticize those people (like me and my wife).
