Looks like we are getting more press. . . however they called us the Think Secret forums, and not AN.com. But in any case the information is based on posts from this forum. One thing I wonder is just how many people will read the article and try to find the 'Think Secret forums'?

Damn, you beat me to it. I'm sure anyone who is interested enough in hardware updates of Apple and the PM have at least heard of TS. Good press for AN. And who said it'd never last? :D

can somebody kill this guy already?

EDIT BY LUCA: Done. I'm deleting his posts and Brad banned his IP.

You missed a lot. But in actuallity, you didn't miss anything.


Just a troll, move along, nothing to see here.

Not sure I understand an IP ban helping improve/correct his view of AN, though I do think his opinion seems a misrepresentation of what AN is like.
Maybe oldtimer juju has clouded my inbox, but I lack the email spam he describes... maybe because I don't tick the boxes for mail from sites I visit. :rolleyes:

Sorry guys, an explanation is necessary.

ThunderPoit is referring to some guy who came in and hijacked a bunch of threads, posting links to that "free iPod" thing. He's not talking about that other guy in that other thread (I can't be assed to check up on his name right now, it's late and I'm going to bed after this post).

Anyway, this one idiot came in and posted the same thing in seven different threads in the Speculation forum, and I deleted all of his posts and banned him. I didn't fully understand the deletion process, though, so I ended up fully removing the posts rather than deleting them in a way that would leave the record still there. It would have alleviated a lot of confusion had I left the record of his post here. So there's the record, set straight. You can now go back to your regularly scheduled topic.
