The disbelieve of non-fans
25.08.06 at 22:55:45

So I have this Voodoo 3 2000 PCI SDRAM which I'm trying to sell on a Dutch site. The card is boxed and complete with accessoires. Asking price is €20 (reasonable, right?)

Within an hour several people react to the item (not by mail, you can react on the site self) and they're all negative reactions. Someone offered €15 for it, including shipping costs of €6,20. Someone even went as far as to do a parody on my offer.

Why for the love of 3dfx do non-fans always react so negatively? Why do they seem to be able to understand it when people collect the strangest thing, but when it comes to 3dfx, they're always bashing?

I get so sick and tired of those people.

I simply pay them no mind- People collect things for any number of reasons and if that makes them happy...

I had one guy breaking my stones on an asian board till I checked his homepage and found out his hobby was... rabbits.

Oh the crap I gave him about that, he got the message and shut up.

heh I would of sent my Brother in law to him he hunts for Rabits, Hare and ducks

He's got a nice Hunting Rifle with a Sniper Scope attacted to it just Zoom in for the head then it BOOM HEASHOT!!! Rabbit down. Grin

But to get back to the Topic, NitroX Infinity is right I did get many negative reactions from other PC users like NV and ATi fanatics as well, like why they perform bad, our cards are much faster and better, then I'm like STFU are you gay? haha

anyways Those people must be gay since they only like the things they do ad not of others, typical gay thing.

Watch Little Britain good example.

Somehow, 3dfx get more critism due to its value.. no one can understand why do they cost so much even though it is obsolete.

(I agree Edmund, anyways the people that think that, they should be evaded otherwise ignored, they just don't get that 3dfx revolutionized the market everytime they had ea new design, that is something ATi nor nvidia or any other brand never did, why are there so many 3dfx fan sites compared to many other like fro m nVidia and ATI, matrox , S3 and you name it, okay there is XGIGamers.com XGI is also something speacial thier Volari Duo B8 Ultra really did revolutionize people but it did have a sad performance, it's just the card that did make the people live it like we love 3dfx cards.

So I tell them that 3dfx revolutionized the market and the ATi as NV didn't they then reply like do you have proof, the morons, the I show them all the 3dfx sites and tell them why do you think there are so many 3dfx sites and hardly any ATi or nVidia ones?

They did scilence after that and said yeah maybe you're right, I was like:

"It's just a fact! Face it!

Never Underestimate the Power Of The Force!

The Power Of The 3dfx Spirit Shall Live On!
