Bad Survive! Deserves A Permanent Post In The Hall Of Shame

[Quiet]

Ahhh don’t be such a spoiled sport and put people down because they don’t feel the same way you do.

Like I said earlier… not everyone reads the entire life history of a company when they choose to buy a product. I have no idea if Honda has ever screwed anyone over… I bought their product because I believe it’s a good product. And to date it has been. As much as they might be to you… knives are no different. They’re a tool… a product. You wanna attach some special meaning to them otherwise… that’s your thing and that’s cool. But it’s not a universal standard. You guys act like religious zealots.

Is SK! Wrong for anyone they’ve wronged? Sure. But there’s nothing wrong with other people choosing to want their product just because it goes against YOUR standard. Not everyone is a “True Scotsman”. Not everyone obsesses over a company’s history when choosing a product. it’s always possible they might get burned. But they’ll have to cross that bridge when they get to it.

You know why I made an SK! order knowing the reputation they had here? Because I’ve been here long enough to know how tribal, cliquey, and nasty BF can be. So I don’t take all the ridiculous 4 year hate-fest threads seriously. I chose to believe the folks that claimed SK! was honestly trying to improve instead. And my experience certainly went sideways. But I got my product that I paid for. So I count that as a win for me.

You mean like you've been doing this entire time? Oh, the irony. Shame that all that pot use you keep talking about appears to have rotted your criticial thinking skills away.

 

[Infi-del]

Yeah well, as long as you're alright, who cares about what happens to anybody else.

That's very noble of you.

Only you and your 7 or 8 buddies in this thread care about you standard of what's noble. So what's your point? Virtue signaling to your bois?

 

[Infi-del]

So then the above quote was an untrue statement with the intent to be inflammatory? You understand that makes you a troll.

Lord help... I understand you're being obtuse on purpose but be serious. Of course my purpose to desire an SK! is because I consider them to be a well made product. That's a given from the beginning. Perhaps I should clarify it for you ( assuming you aren't trying to manufacture some pointless "Gotcha" moment for the choir). The reason I chose to listen to those who said SK! was trying to improve their situation over this hate fest... is because of the reasons I stated earlier. Of course I want the actual product because I deem it a quality tool. Hope that helps.

 

[Infi-del]

Multiple people have come forward and said that they avoided Survive because of this thread highlighting their years of continued shenanigans and lies.

And they're perfectly entitled to feel however they like.

You don't like the people or how they behave in this thread so you ignored their warnings and trusted the people that have been pushing the same BS for years.

Correct. Because of the reputation BF has fostered for itself with non-stop hate fest threads just like this one.

Said company does not deliver as promised so you open a PayPal claim to eventually get your item.

Correct. I left myself some form of protection. Everyone should always do that. As a result I was either going to get my money or my purchase. And I got my purchase. Took longer than I'd like. But I got it.

I think this thread is working as intended. Now only if Survive worked as intended.

You're entitled to your opinion.

 

[Infi-del]

And there we have it folks. The real reason for this troll-fest. This low integrity bridge dweller is supporting criminals out of spite because the big bad meanies at BF hurt his feels. Good job ya'll. It's all your fault.

You are correct... "There it is" indeed, attack the non-believer! He's a monster... he has no honor! Poop Emoji! Calm down... get ahold of yourself.

 

[benchwarmer380]

"Hate fest" that has been objectively correct the whole time.

The proof is in the pudding.

But, we are entitled to our opinions.

 

[bellyfulls]

The point was quite obvious. You made it easy.

Of course... but when members accuse others of being gay (as to insult), dishonorable, lacking integrity, trolls, shills, stupid, etc... it speaks volumes and diminishes the value of those opinions. Food for thought.

Except that in your case, you deliberately troll. You've been called out on it, and it's a title you have to live with.
Perhaps you should have a bite of humble pie.

 

[King of the Cheese]

Why does “Survive!” have such a cult-like following? I don’t understand it. Are these people brainwashed by YouTube videos?

Some of that is insulting. Ignore those folks.

Some of that is an observation of behavior. If the observations lack merit, then yes it diminishes the value of the opinion from that person.

But sometimes the shoe fits.



I'd have to go back and check, but I'd wager the folks that have been insulting are greatly outnumbered by those that have not.

 

[Infi-del]

Ignore sure... however it does the credibility of this thread no good. What's the word the kids use? Toxic?

When it's the same 8 guys lashing out at anyone that dare disagree over and over and over and over and over... it becomes the stench of the thread. Or flavor if you prefer.

I would probably make the same wager. But when you have 100 guys that posted a valid response once or twice... and 8 guys that have posted asinine high school nonsense 1,000 times in an attempt to run off any disagreement... like I said... it becomes the stench. It is... this thread.

Unlike the one guy arguing the same tired point with those 8 guys over and over and over and over and over. And over.
Ironically, that is not affecting the flavor of the thread in the least, only the stench of that one guy.

they're on the payroll bro.

Of course... but when members accuse others of being gay (as to insult), dishonorable, lacking integrity, trolls, shills, stupid, etc... it speaks volumes and diminishes the value of those opinions. Food for thought.

I believe you are referencing my post from yesterday:

Being a fan follower rarely equates to critical thinking ability, but certainly copious gushing and ball washing.

My post says nothing about sexual orientation, your own or any other. It's alluding to the sycophantic adoration displayed by fans, followers, fan boys and girls. Ball washing is a metaphor describing a variety of fawning behavior that might be displayed by such individuals.

The only accusation, or name, I've leveled at you is troll.

But, keep sticking to your feelings, since you've been unable to articulate much else.

What I think is happening here, is that you're now attempting to drum this whole "I'm personally insulted!!!!" diatribe in order to try to get this thread closed, as a smoke-show and attempt at censoring a thread that has been quite useful in costing mediocre kit-knife company Scumbag! Knives business.

It's not going to work.

 

[EngrSorenson]

As I stated earlier. I chose to buy from Survive in spite of this thread. Primarily because of the behavior of some of it’s participants. If you guys are truly here to perform a community service… maybe keep that in mind.

Lord help... I understand you're being obtuse on purpose but be serious. Of course my purpose to desire an SK! is because I consider them to be a well made product. That's a given from the beginning.

So you say you buy it primarily because of some of the opinions here but you really buy it because you think it's a quality tool.

When you say you buy a product because of your feelings regarding some of the negative opinions here, that actually isn't true.
It's a lie you say to goad the readership here. That's the definition of trolling.

There is a gotcha moment here- it's the big reveal of your true motivation for being here.
Quit trolling.

So "Ball Washing" is insinuating one has a man's testicles in their mouth? And referencing such in an intentionally derogatory way? Or is it meant as a good thing?

You're starting to worry me that you aren't being intentionally obtuse. You don't get to label anyone that disagrees with you as "trolling"... well not in any meaningful way. You can call me a Polar Bear if you want... doesn't make it so.

And I'm sure your other 7 bois applaud you.
