Too many of you are wrapped up in the "OMG, They advertise on a forum without expressly saying they do?!" it's pathetic!

The world of PR, Marketing and god knows what has been kicking around this kind of thing since the fifties. It's not new, and you've ALL been smacked in the face with marketing in subtle ways. There are people out there paid far more than a lot of you to just construct ways of doing this EVERYWHERE. Why is it so shocking to some people that it comes on a forum?!

Someone quoted something from a PA news article, about a company that wanted to employ Tycho to make posts, become reputable, and eventually advertise games. Does it not strike anyone else that this has been going on as long as online retail has?

It's not a mass consipiracy devised by AEG/nVidia. Infact, they're probably the worst at it. Seeing as the people they had working for them got exposed before AEG could intervene, or before the user could cover it up.

It's not new, it's not a conspiracy, and yes there may well be account clones on these forums to do the same thing from the same people. I am willing to bet that from now on, anyone avidly supporting ATi/nVidia will be flamed to hell and back, and accused of being in some goddamned AEG style employ. If that does happen, I'm sorry, but that's just plain pathetic. The need for paranoia on a forum is nil. If you were trustin g it 100% before this, then more fool you. If you're never going to trust it again, even more fool you.

Arn't we supposed to be adults here to discuss our hoby?

So far, we're acting like a bunch of paranoid old women in a hat store. Please excuse that, if you are an old lady that hangs around in a hat store bickering with your friends over trivial, and frankly stupid, things.

what it is is.....reality has suddenly smacked the delusional and naive ones in the face and they are shocked and dont like how the big bad world operates. of course the people who actually have a clue arent in the least bit suprised or bothered and are just going to get on with their lives as normal.

I doubt anyone is surprised this happens. Marketing is marketing. Unlike you though, most people here realize that marketing agents should be banned if they're found.

You have a losers attitude. "This happens all the time, it'll never stop, everyone does it, why even bother addressing it ..."

no i just dont get offended by much........either way you should check out FI.....the new forum software which is around the corner and hopefully implemented by jason for this site is looking sweet, and has a very nice feature

you can ignore certain users, and block all content by them, so you can filter out the users that post bull, or those you think are marketers.

marketing trash is all around us 24/7 you just gotta be abit smart and learn what to listen to and what not to, thats the answer to this.

i have a laid back attitude to the internet.....its not a big thing, not to be taken seriously. i have a perfectionist attitude toward my university work, and i have a winners attitude toward my chosen sport, in which i do very well thanks ..... read european level.

Fair enough. I still don't see why Anandtech quickly bans any marketing shill that spams hot deals, but won't do so for AEG "representatives" in other forums.

This thread really needs to die. The Anandtech administration/mods need to come forward with their decision soon, whatever that decision may be. They have left this hanging too long.

1. I have never hidden my association with nVidia. I've posted it many times here, at Hardocp, Firing Squad, and nVNews.

2. I have always said that I get the reference cards "discounted", "deeply discounted", and the like. Never once did I say I paid full retail for them.

3. I've posted many times that my cards come straight from nVidia, which is true.

4. In my signature I note that my cards are reference.

5. I've posted links to pictures of my reference cards here and elsewhere.

6. I posted about software before it was available to the public.

Does it sound like I was trying to hide my association to nVidia to you?

Yes

the Master of Spin . . .back for more "Damage Control"

when asked directly about your association, you lied . . . multiple times

and now you have changed you story SO many times - including "i am DONE with this thread" - do you expect ANYone [except your most die hard fans] to believe you?

Finally, you have not attempted to dispute that you - personally - have caused much PR damage to nVidia . . . i see you are trying to "fix" it and will say anything.

again, i expect ATF to take whatever time they need to make a fair decision . . . as they promised.

What I don?t understand is that some members are actuality defending Rollo and company even after this news! Maybe they?re nVidia fanboys but still cmon! :roll:

And yes I prefer ATI cards because I have nothing to hide.

You invalidated your entire post with the last thing you said.

3/4 of this damn thread is ati fanbois taking free shots at rollo/nvidia, you guys are no better than he is.

no doubt.

i think the ati trolls get all upset when they realize there hardwork has gone for naught.

its funny to see sickbeast post all this crap for days and the bring up one of the first articles on this as a "now this is interesting", as if its nreaking news. half of these people don't even know what they're talking about.

The people that he "helped" were probably tricked, and wasted alot of money probably purchasing the wrong hardware.

this cracks me up. how much diffference is there between an nv or ati card at certain price points?

And what they don't understand is, as long as they keep posting and flaming in this thread, the longer the mods will take. That is, if they are waiting for everyone to calm down and not jump in the middle of hot water and get flamed themselves from the ATI fanbois for NOT banning anyone, if that is there decision.

For Morph and Apoppin:

Here I am, hiding my ties to nVidia back in 2004:
http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...hreadid=1344820&enterthread=y&arctab=y

I have a buddy that works at nVidia, the patch will be out soon for everyone, and anyone here should be able to replicate my results.

Here I am again on 6/23/04, hiding my association with nVidia by telling you "a buddy who works there hooked me up with a reference board":
http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...hreadid=1337798&enterthread=y&arctab=y

I have a buddy at nVidia who hooked me up with a reference board, looks like this:

The FACT of the matter is I have told you guys I have ties to nVidia since the day I did.

I did not tell you about the focus group because it affected more than me, so it was not my decision to make.

If me posting that I had a friend at nVidia who get me reference hardware and beta software numerous times, links to pics of my reference cards, that I did not pay retail for the cards, and having reference cards listed in my signature was not enough of a hint I had connections to nVidia, there's nothing I can do for you. About the only thing I didn't do is give you access to my email account so you could see the emails from them. :roll:

90% of the people in this thread are people I've angered in previous arguments trying to exact a little revenge by twisting this into something it's not.

Sorry.. I've seen more than a few people who prefer/preferred nVidia decide to change their alleigance just because of the distasteful tactics by nVidia posting in this thread. I don't have any particular preference for either company, I go with what works best for a situation, and as such, have owned, and still do own cards by both companies.

The major portion of this thread consists of people outraged by AEG's tactics and by Rollo's constant lying. That members here got banned, permanent or otherwise, because they fingered him for the shill he is, should be MORE than enough reason to ban him permanantly.

Sorry, but you're just coming off in your posts as exactly what you are. An indignant nVidia stalwart who refuses to believe that nVidia, AEG, or Rollo have done anything wrong, immoral, or out of line.

You smell that? It's the charred remains of nVidia's and Rollo's reputations.

So, what proof do you have that Rollo would have posted any differently than he has for the past 10 years if AEG/Nvidia had not added him to their focus group? You have none. A major part of Rollo not telling anyone was to avoid a thousand emails from other members here to "Get me in the program, I want free stuff!!!" GUARANTEED this would have happened. Ethics has nothing to do with it. I suggest you look into your own life and see just how "ethical" you really are. Mr. Angel. Your behavior and posting style indicates you get jollies from this sort of thing. How ethical is that?

Not buying your damage control, Rollo... Granted, there are some here that are taking great glee in kicking you when you're down & rubbing salt in your wounds. But, for 1, you've more than earned a good share of it all on your own, and two, there are more than a couple people that you've had no personal dealings with that find your attitudes and actions unconcionable and repugnant.

Fact of the matter is, you lies to members here, your indignations at getting pointed out as an AEG shill got people banned (temp or permanant, no matter which), and you've incessantly attacked anything about ATI and obfuscated any shortcomings with nVidia which had all the intentions of misleading people into buying nVidia product.

You've brought this on yourself, Rollo.

What a drama queen. Like it will matter if the 7900GTX pwns the XTX for a comparable price.

I can see it now:

High End Video Card Buyer: Drat! That 7900GTX is a MUCH better card, but nVidia gave those 6 guys some video cards, and they were only partially forthcoming about it! Oh well, I guess I'll buy the worse card to support the company I don't know for sure gave away any cards.

Yeah, that's how it will happen all right......

Witchfire, I think you better look into exactly why those "AEG accusers" were vacationed/banned. It was not the fact they accused Rollo of AEG affiliation, but the way they did it. Insults to his mother, flaming, cursing, creating threads with Rollo's first name in the title. And most of the bans were Intelia, Turtle1, XTX4U, and god knows what other name this particular user used. A banned member returning with another name and IP is and automatic bannable offense. And this one user returned at least 4 times that I know of, AND is probably back here again using yet another name. Could even be Witchfire.
So, get your facts straight before you blab. It was not for the AEG accusations, but the manner in which they attacked Rollo with some really sick things they said. I myself reported LikeLinus to the mods because I was actually shocked at the things he was saying in a public thread. I PM'd a mod with text from LikeLinus's posts and he was instantly vacationed for 2 weeks (I think it was 2 weeks). The mods PM'd me and thanked me for pointing it out to them and added that when LikeLinus returns and if he exhibits the same behavior, he will be permanently gone.

So there is more to it than your narrow thoughts show you.. Not an attack, but you are displaying very narrow thinking.

 

[Munky]

Having a buddy that works at Nv is in no way a description of your ties to Nv. I could just as easily say I also have an old time buddy from high school who works at Nv and occasionally gives me some inside info, and no one would have a problem with that. How is that in any way related to you being an undercover marketing agent who actively steers the discussion away from Nv problems, persistently emphasizes every positive Nv feature however important or unimportant it is, and continuously posts negative comments about the competitor's products, some of which are completly false? And to top it off, when someone accused you of being an AEG agent, you either got them banned or threatened to get them banned.

In addition, this is directly related to your posting style, not only the AEG affiliation. There's no such "witch hunt" going against the AEG agents at B3D because they have been fair and balanced, and have contributed in a positive and constructive way to the forum. The reason there's such a hunt out against you is because you have done exactly the opposite to this forum.

Actually I would commend Rollo for the times he's provoked debate on real issues.
I found the image quality debate useful - what mix of IQ/FPS/Shader version/AA/AF
is better? I suppose I'd like to have everything but not everyone has $500 plus for
a vid card. (Actually I prefer IQ over speed..but am probably dumb to wait for a
decent mid priced SHader 3 ATI when the Nvidia boards are quite a bit cheaper
a solution.)
Ah well..I favor ATI. On the Other hand I favor Nvidia motherboards

I suppose if I were an "undercover marketing agent" not much. But since I'm just a guy in a user group who does have a friend at nVidia, it's a good part of the truth.
BTW- I'm not too deep undercover when I've been posting pics of my reference cards and saying I get them discounted am I? I could have said I bought every card I got at newegg, but I didn't?

Errr, yeah. You're ALWAYS posting positives about nVidia products Munky. Should you be banned as a potential ATI shill?

The fact of the matter is I'm just a guy who's free to post whatever I want about ATI and nVidia. There are no laws about balancing negatives with positives, or vice versa.

The guys at B3d don't post in my style because they never did. I post in my style because I always have. I did before I was in the group, I did while in the group, and I will after I'm out of the group.

Know why?

I want to, and I can.

I think maybe you should take your own advice and "think" a little more. Don't you think the mods can see your posts to? Do you not think they see your constant insults and flaming? Who is to say the mods won't kick you as well as the rest of us for even perpetuating this thread? You might reconsider going to join B3D because you may be in for a surprise as well as the rest of us, and need to find a new home. Me? I'll live. You? you are too "self-important" to take something like that lightly. You think it can't happen? I believe it can. The mods will surprise us, I have a feeling. And justly so.

Your "style" of posting and the fact that you have an outside influence to enforce that "style" down everybody's throat for personal gain, is EXACTLY what the problem is. Thanks for confirming.

Downplaying the issue as always. What kind of user group? What's the purpose of that group as described on their website?

I dont downplay Ati issues. And the fact that I post against your Nv propaganda does not automatically make me pro-Ati. So stop clouding the issue with more propaganda.

The fact of the matter is I'm just a guy who's free to post whatever I want about ATI and nVidia. There are no laws about balancing negatives with positives, or vice versa.

first of all, i DID join B3D . . . as a courtesy to Geo1 [i promised to PM him] . . . haven't posted there and may never.

i am certain the mods/admin are following this thread - there is no other reason it remains unlocked.

i am only 'Guilty' of responding "in kind" . . . my insults are a response to yours [and others].

you seem to be worried about being banned along with Rollo . . . personally, i am not . . . my ethics aren't called into question here [except by you as a smokescreen]. . .

otoh, his are.

this thread is about Rollo and Viral marketing.
