In Reply to: "Some products have questionable acceptance across the boards." Huh? I've never noticed any consistency... posted by clarkjohnsen on October 22, 2006 at 10:22:18:
["More generally someone will say he tried this tweak and many will agree with him and several will disparage him, usually rudely and without having tried it themselves."]It's a fine matter of perspective but I'd disagree with your generalization. Nor would I suggest a particular board is an exception to either of our observations.
Depending on the product, many may try and disagree. I don't think a board's demeanor overrides the perceived effect of a product. I try not to be rude but I do have ordinary opinions that are based on life experiences.
Probably not the greatest analogy but...:
If a pig with pigskin wings runs across a room, that's not enough evidence to be open minded about flying pigs. I wouldn't buy one and I'd have doubts about purchasers that claim wing-sprout sightings.["Not sure what you mean either by "weird stuff"."]
Sure you do. I was quoting you. If this is your idea of a retraction, fine. I thought you might offer up a distinction between "weird stuff" and tweaks (my interjection) when I said, "So, perhaps you're referring to tweaks that are generally understood as such, rather than "weird stuff".
