Guys, obviously OP realized his post caused grief to others and he said sorry for starting it. I think it’s a mistake made once in a while.
But the worst is that certain people used this thread to put more salt in the wound falsely accusing/criticising Vihn with negative comments.
Obviously Vinh’s buyers are flashlight lovers, who know what is for sale. If they decide to spend the money, then his lights are not overcharged.
And on the other side: I’m a longtime modder and I know that even the most basic of mods always takes hours to perform. But also finding out how to best do the mod takes time. And I sometimes have to build new equipment to be able to do a mod. That sucks away time too. I hope that Vinh charges all those hours and makes a fair living out of it, but my guess is that he is not getting rich.
About ” geez it was just a joke. You need to stop being so serious all the time “:
It is not about having to be serious, it is about the type of joke. In real life go ahead and joke away among your friends, they know you and you know them, but it is arrogant to demand that your personal type of humour is understood all over the internet (it surely is not!), so please stick to jokes that can not be interpreted as rude or offensive.
Wolfdog, it is very heartbreaking to see loved one being victim of rape. It will take a very long time to heal.
I don’t think Pony meant to cause grief to you. I sensed that he was being sarcastic to those trying to put down Vinh. I think judging or knowing a person’s intention is very important. Of course, I am not saying your judgement was wrong. It was not clear to be a joke when Pony posted it albeit it was a bad joke.
Have not read all posts in this thread. I think the $9999.99 price was not meant to be real. Just a number to take space while the real selling price is decided. This discussion is just getting to serious.
