Default What will happen to TROLLS?

Will we still have trolls? I guess we got more defected trolls who became blu exclusive members in here now. What about stubborn red trolls? Will they be gone forever? or will they chase old former trolls and convert them back?

I think many of them will start to attack just cause they are upset. But I am sure the numbers will drop down and by winter, most people will be using Blu-ray and the trolls will stop or come close to it. They will either get Blu-ray, get downloads, or get stuffed.

There will always be disgruntled red ants, sony haters and general trouble makers. They'll likely get more agressive in the comming weeks until the time that HDDVD officially dies off.

First step is to start talking up HD downloading while saying that HD-DVD would have been better for the consumer and that it sadly lost despite its superiority.

Second step will be to turn their anger and passion over to the 360 v PS3 battleground.

With any luck they'll stay under their proverbial bridges and leave us content Blu-goats across to enjoy bluer (word?) pastures.

If not, we can just feed them to the raptors.

No, way, we will definitely still have trolls spouting the future of HDM is doomed and the only way to go is downloading. I'm already sick of it. I guess I just don't understand the concept at this point.

The downloading is to slow and not everyone has high speed internet or will even pay for a service such as satallite or cable where they can get VOD. But what people can do is go out to pick up a disc to watch at home.

I guess if someone really explained how it is going to be possible within the next few years, I just won't get it.

The few red trolls/ants who have accepted the reality of the situation already have started their new campaign (check out AVS); they are stating Blu-ray will die because of high price, incomplete specs, downloading, etc. Unfortunately, it will take a while for them to fade out, but I think most will go away.

They are all stating HD downloading is the future and it will be a reality like next week. I am laughing to much to even become a member at these other boards and respond to these crazy people. They must be microsoft stockholders or something because something is odd with their view of the world.

Should put up a Dr. Phil forums section for them. I wonder if there's a 12-step program being developed by Amir's team over at pM$.

Edit: I'm finding the HD DVD zealots, the ones holding on, to be more Microsoft's sheep than actual Hi-def enthusiasts.

Default High Def Digest Forums are still full of 'em

I don't know though, I kinda wish Rdjam and HDNOW were invited back just for this. It would be funny to watch the spin.

Oh God, that's worse than Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD. The 360 is close to needing a total overhaul again. XBox 720? LOL... the 360 is already being pushed to its max and still comes up short with a few new titles.

On HDD I suggested they add a new forum called "HD Format Cry-down" where crybabies from both sides can post. Now it would really take a lot of calculus of normal distributions and such to determine which side would dominate such a forum...

I work for a company in Dallas that has a large number of remote employee's around the nation and believe me there is a lot of "CRAP" so called High Speed Internet being sold out there. Many of the people I connect to for troubleshooting issues should sue their ISP's for the throughput they get. Most ISP's over sell their capacity, movie downloads may sound good but I'd venture to say not all that many out there have the actual relieable connections to make it practical. Not for a long, long time anyway.

Dont worry, I got the same PM but they deducted points..Ooooooh. I guess they couldnt take me telling them their red insiders were full of shit and our Blu insiders told us everything that has happened in favor of Blu. LMAO AVS what a joke! Let the red fools come here, its painful for them. Their inferior format lost, to the superior format of Blu ray and there is NOTHING they can do about it. NOTHING!!!!

The insane asylums of AVS and HDD will explode and trolls will rampage around for a few months, but it will die down pretty fast hopefully. Just get out the troll spray.
