Thanks for your comment --- per the article, and KC's comments, still think bashers should be listened to, and maybe heeded a good part of the time, given the nature of some BB companies. It's important, I think, to look at a "basher's" track record. Do they only bash, or are they pro some companies? Are their comments based in reasonable differences of interpretation of comments and information (or even better, do they seem to have done some DD to lead them to question the "company line"?)
Often, because hypsters don't want the basher around, they will resort to personal attacks and not deal with the basher's content. Some companies need bashing, and hypsters need their hot air bubble burst. It's not always pleasant, but usually appropriate. Remember Bre-ex? IPMCF? Delgratia? The believers hated the "bashers" - but those who listened managed to save a few of their pennies.... |
