RE: <Unfortunately there are biases forming between the two main AMD threads. I have chosen to stay quiet until now. However I will not sit by and let people smugly promote the mod thread at the expense of this thread. Not only is it annoying, its stupid. I hope you see my point.>

Ted,

Yes there may be some bias, but it is on both sides. I have seen as much negativity aimed at the mod thread as there has been against this one. Barb after barb has been shot pressing hotbuttons like censorship etc. From the very beginning you stated that you would never post there and I think your feelings are hurt that so many others did. A large number of us read and post to both. The mere fact that you don't shows that you are just as biased as anyone whom you might be accusing.

Regards,

Epinephrine

Tejek, You said: Besides how are is comments any different than the ones made by the AMD longs who go over to the Intel thread and tell them to buy AMD 'cause its the better company? Do you think that makes the Intel longs all warm and fuzzy inside? I doubt it."

I dont condone that either.. we call that "trolling" I no more would condone that then what I occasionally see Intel and Rambus people post in here. But .. I disagree with your clumping JC's comments as being similar to those.

I never have said this thread was "heathen".. I merely said I preferred the civilized discourse over there to here.. Occasionally the banter here amuses me.. but it gets to be a bit much.. I would never have expected an investors site to be similar to the Yahoo site or to IRC. ANyhow.. if I completely hated it.. I wouldnt be here would I? Thats my opinion on things - nothing more. NO attempt to convert the heathens from me ;)
