Wink Just Got Back From HDForums, Time To Relax

Well, I just went over, kicked some DUD ass, because I was bored. It's like fishing with dynamite. Throw in some bait and watch the suckers bite. They are so predictable and so blinded by their chosen Messiah's that it's almost too easy. Desperation is everywhere and the fud is piled high. Most of the AVS red refugees are over there doing their usual clothes washing, with the spin cycle on high. Now for some comfort time in our Blu lair!

Desperate times call for desperate measures. They want to hang on! I wonder how many are saving their money by not buying hd duds because they know they'll have to spend hard to get all the blus (to catch up to us) when blu wins

I saw that a lot on my last visit, too. They call it going purple.

like I was saying earlier...

I am done bashing people who support HD-DVD....

they are like our cousins, but twisted by the dark side...

I don't want them to feel bitter, I'd rather they support both than just red....

we all make mistakes....like myself, I purchased stock in Enron before all the shenanigans because of whispers there may be a split...

it's easy to buy into BS and that's what they've done....they are victims IMO...

it's gotta be pretty hard to go from red to blu. If you owned all this shit, wouldn't you rather just keep it then sell it on ebay? Specially since you probably bought it at a high price and now no one wants it.

Purple IS good. There are better and more title releases out on BD, so we get those numbers coming in over DUD. Eventually, purple fans will be phasing out DUD altogether.

Don't bother wasting time there...it's just sad now. It was once a great forum, open for discussion, friendly members, etc.

Now, it has become nothing more than a place for nonrational HD DVD fanatics to gather. I wish they would of chosen the HD DVD exclusive site, as opposed to a site that is suppose to be neutral, but it's futile now.

However, if you want to see HD DVD fanatics pull excuses and logic out of pure air, that's the place to go. Just remember, to them...everything HD DVD, good; everything Blu-ray, bad.

The DUDers started a thread over at AVM$ on the BD Software Forum entitled "Going Neutral" or something like that.
Actually, it is another one of their trolling threads: "just bought a PS3 and am purple and you should be too."
In other words: you BD guys should buy a POS Toshiba and be purple like us.

Typical BS tactic.

I'll just wait till all the red is released on BLU. I'm patient.
Let them do whatever the hell makes them feel good. It'll hurt later(if it already hasn't).
