My point was that "overpriced, good for copying" came across as "hey, here's a neat idea. Too expensive, though, so F that guy and make your own"

Which isn't a problem normally, but st's a respected member here. Anyone who isn't in the community is fair game, though ;D

thats exactly the kinda mentality i take exception with.

there seems to be some twisted morality on this board about who it's fair to "rip off" and who it is'nt.. personally i dont see it as ripping off anyone, if the build quality is good people will buy it, those who can't afford it or think it's over priced will build their own.

anything more then this and i think we're building a type of "welfare" system.

i dont see turnarcades getting all pissy because he makes cabs and people on this board still make their own (much disrespect to him).

or who is it again that sells hacked gamepads? i can't remember anyway how dare anyone hack their own pad's.. he's providing a service and on the board BUY THEM.

ya it's silly is'nt it?

It's always a relative term.

that was my point in case you missed it, 3 different people might say 3 different things.. all relative to their perception of the product and the value of money.

You got me all wrong. I don't have a problem with anyone making their own version of st's cocktail (as long as they don't sell it). It was the way the TC presented it that bothered me.

Yeah, you've gone out of your way to answer my questions on DC pad hacks.

Beretta:

ok i think i get your meaning.

you did'nt like that he was calling them overpriced right?

your first post said he was ripping him off.. so i thought your primary objection was because he suggested copying the idea.

which really to me just seems like a oversized cocktail.. but erm anyway.

ya i was trying to drag HarumaN  or Turnarcades into it.. just wanted to use you guys as examples of people providing a service on the board that dont get bent outta shape when other people still do it them selves.
