The problem is that he isn't just a fanboy (there are lots of those) he is affiliated with nVidia and up until a couple days ago he had been completely denying it. He is a valuable member of the community (I love his benchmarks) but he just because he is a valuable member of the community doesn't excuse him from being a shill (for lack of a better word) or getting other members banned for telling the truth.

I've never denied my connection to nVidia, I've only denied my connection to AEG. Given what has transpired, can you blame me?
Beyond that, you think I might have had to field some "Get me free video cards" emails?

Rollo, I think your innocent, if it means anything

I 2nd you on that.

So you think he was just 'given' a brand new 7800 GTX 512mb for being a 'Beta Tester'?

After it had already been released mind you, its not like he got the card prior to its release primarily for testing purposes! Plus, I dont see Microsoft handing out free PC's to Vista testers, or ATI handing out random X1900's after theyve already been released and tested to random forum members for further 'Beta testing' ;)

When people lie to themselves long enough, in their head, it becomes the truth.

your post serves nothing but flaming. Please stop.

If the mods do decide to clean up this forum, I truly hope you one of the ones to go. Because I can't help but tear into people like you with your acid tongues. It's what usually gets me into trouble here. If I have to go as well, so be it. If that is what it takes to make the forums better.

Some people believe in Santa Claus too. BTW, he was given 2 brand new 7800 GTX 512mb cards.

I love how he calls himself a "beta tester" now. At least he isn't planning on stopping the lies.

Well, they sent me beta software you can't get, drivers and patches. Told me to try them and report back to nVidia any issues.

What do you call that?

You would be flamed if you hung out in the O/S forum and pimped for them while crapping all over anyone who mentioned Linux.

so that proves whoever is flaming is WRONG! Linux isn't perfect, so if there is a problem I'd voice it. Yet, I'm fan of Linux redhat OS.

I wouldn't put it past you, Rollo.

For all we know your 5 year old son is your imaginary friend.

You're way too immature to be an old guy anyways. You're not even well-spoken. You put question marks all over the place. It's completely gramatically incorrect!

I would say that I would report you to the mods but I aldready did that yesterday.

You're on my infamous "list".

If anything, you've bolstered my credibility.

ROFL at beta tester, maybe AEG should add beta testing to their mission statement.

Oh and I no longer believe in any "truth" from you. :thumbsdown:
