If you have a problem with a user, please use the report function. A moderator will review it and take action if needed.

it doesn't have to break rules, It makes us look bad, and do you really deem me posting that enough of an issue to warrant your response? chill out, everyone here is too hell bent on being a bounty hunter.

@ Chipp: The stocks, man, the stocks... hell of a costly April Fool's joke

Users destroying their cards, forums rampant, and no mods or admins to police it

Foul language throughout, links to the Pirate Bay and porn popping up??? No way it is a joke... it is a riot of angry consumers...

I doubt this is the worlds 1st, but it's the 1st internet riot I've ever seen

From this point on I am guessing they will either be forced to properly support their hardware, or will be heavily **** on by the internet community, which will cost them some $$$.

EDIT: Added Creative's stock listing to my iPod Touch. Hopefully this will be interesting.

never before has news like this probably spread so fast, lol.

I gave up on trying to catch up @ page 9!

I jsut got up an hr or two ago. this is, just... wow!

That newegg post is interesting. ahas anyone e-mailed newegg to ask about it's validity yet?

I was ready to boycott ever buying a another new creative product when i got my x-fi and upgraded to vista. till this day i still have occasional problems, but at least it works, mostly. any chance sum1 could PM me somewhere I could get some of these Daniel K drivers b4 they dissapear? Speaking of Daniel K, I'm gonna go have to ask my dad if he secretly has been making Creative sound card drivers

LOL.

Check this out.

Look at the name under "Investor Contacts". Same guy who wrote the original "cease and desist" post in the Creative forums. Same guy who will be no doubt be getting contacted by investors about this as well. I'd hate to be him right now.

Here is that stock symbol I mentioned earlier, in case anyone wants to monitor it: CREAF. They're currently at $4.45, but the stock market isn't open today (Sunday). Lucky for them.
