The few do not represent the many...

http://www.wizdforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=504

Give us a break guys Wizd cannot be responsible for every posters actions. I tried to calm things down in the particular thread you linked to but failed so it is now locked.

The link posted above is the ACTUAL Wizd response to this. I have mailed everyone from procooling who posted in the thread (except joe who I do not have an e-mail addy for)

We have no wish to enter a forum bashing contest with procooling or anyone else for that matter.

the actions of a vocal 'few' should not be taken to be necessarily representative of a 'group'

applies to all I suspect
but there were Luddite comments wrt testing

I was politely asked to remove Mr Poo's quote from my sig by knipex. No sweat I tire of interforum drama after a few hours or so anyway. Joe your post was GENIUS; where do I nominate someone for poet lauriate?

This is not the first time I have been accused of being biased in my reviews. Interestingly every time it happens the poster in the same breath says the testing methods are good and the results are correct. Also rather amusingly the first go around I was biased against Danger Den and this time I am shilling for them. Guess if you take the mean I am right where I'd like to be.

I would issue a challenge to the "low flow is better" and "small tubing is better" crowd though one and all. I will be happy to do a point/counterpoint article that is hosted on both sites where you and yours can expound the virtues of using small tubing and how it improves cooling performance and I will explain my position and rebut where needed. It must, of course, remain civil and focus on FACTS and that I will do my best to explain the theory and correct any misconceptions/inaccuracies that may be presented.

Let me know. My first installment would be called "Cool, Quiet, Compact: Choose any two"

Hell maybe I should write it anyway...

Well since I spent some time in a drunken state typing that post on their forum, I happen to have a copy of that text here still... (on a web browser that was open from last night) So here it is

By: Big Player (aka Joe) on the Wiz designs forums in response to stupid people.

Holy crap this is funny!

Hello there this is that big player with the big money here in the US. I am normally called "The Man" as in : "the Man is keeping me down!" but I am also called "Joe" as in: the owner of ProCooling.

I am the owner, but do not run procooling anymore, simply due to the fact that it cost me too much time and money to keep the site going on my own. So pH has taken it over. That on its own should explain some of the following.

Mr poo, I gotta say I haven’t laughed this hard in a good long time. The delusions you have are almost acid flash back quality. Yes, you guessed it, we are all high paid employee's of large companies in a master scam that’s designed for only one thing World Domination of the local tavern. (or pub/bar what ever the **** you guys call it over there). You have this grand idea about us being big players, getting all the money, and working for Danger Den. Funny enough, Danger Den hardly returns emails to us let alone employ's us

Well I could go on and on with this cause you really offer quite a good bit of material for me to joke around with, but theres hardly time for that. I mean we gotta focus on world domination and all.

The line about us being Big Players with the Big Money is absolutely classic though, Its what I live to see on the web! Cause if enough people say it , maybe someday we will be! I gotta change our titles to that in the forums so someday someone may actually think we are!

Thanks for the idea! Also, Mr. Poo since you think we are so powerful, big players and all, would you mind talking to some sponsors for us about how big we really are? Cause I really respect your views on the topic Mr poo and feel you would be a great representative for procooling! Someday if you want you can even come over here and suck my cock if you like! Thats not something I offer to just anyone!

Thanks!, and hope to talk to you soon!,

Big Player, Making the Big Money - OUT

Well I think brew pubs are going to be the first and mostly in the Madison WI area, then we will expand our domination to the rest of the state. focusing on small hole in the wall taverns, if you have any recomendations please let me know!

I kinda like Bennets MCC as a start. On a few rainy days me and the crew have at times pretty much taken it over for varried periods of time ourselves.

I dont think I have ever been in a brew pub in my life, even tho there are very few bars/taverns in the madison area I havent been in atleast once in the last 35 or so years.

Damn, sounds like I missed out on the fun. A forum brawl that I wasn't directly responsible for. Bah, need to stop fishing and stop spending time with the kid to keep up on all this.

Joe:
Didn't we hatch a plan for hardware site domination over many pitchers at the Fish Hatch Dane? We need to follow up on that because the world NEEDS heroes now more than ever

Dont worry jay i did a pretty good job of filling in for you.

Sorry to Knipex for being a idiot but it needed to be said right? I think Pug may be a little pissed off with me. What with this and the Custom PC er... disagreements
