Conspiracy theory: looks like there are no conservatives who yearn for a Pentax FF. Pentax has bought market research showing conservatives are the most influential group in America. Pentax has no intention to ever release a FF. Therefore the word came from higher up in the Pentax hierarchy to have pentaxforums squash P&R, as we were slowly converting some hard right conservatives to at least be able to understand that there could be alternate, and valid, views
Therefore our presence threatens the Pentax brand: for once we get all the money from the makers and give it to the takers, prostitutes, pimps and addicts, and once we got our healthcare, there could only be one goal left: get Pentax to release a FF. Which, as I say above, they completely refuse to do. Because, a Pentax quality FF image in the hands of the republic is a dangerous thing.
