Aww come on, isn't this the guy who officially declared the rolleyes smiley all hoopty and cliche -- now going and making a post like this? Animal, you can't do any better than an "I got put on probation so I'm going to make a self-righteous post and get myself banned and go out on top because I've always been a loyal customer and HTC is going to hell in a handbasket and I'll just take my business elsewhere" post?
That thread was fun while it lasted, but it was like a bunch of kids lighting matches in the backyard. It's fun, but we all know we shouldn't be doing it, and it's going to get shut down as soon as an adult spots it.
Laugh it off. It'd be a shame to see you leave, especially on bad terms.
