How dare you be HAPPY WITH YOUR PENTAX!
Right from when I was 2, I found that screaming and throwing my toys out of the pram always got instant results and I have never seen a reason to change tactics since.
Positive or balanced feedback is to be avoided at all costs. This will lull people into a false sense of security and they will assume things are not that bad. You have to make out that its a complete disaster and the world is ending otherwise they just wont LISTEN or they will stupidly focus on something else that YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT.
Anyway, I know Canon and Nikon can focus on a black cat in deep space within 6 microseconds and track a Higgs boson moving at light speed. It says so in their sales literature so it must be true. Besides, all my mates say so too and unlike Pentax, Canon and Nikon don't have any fanboys. So it must be true.
And I've always found telling someone something 10,000 times is far more effective than just telling them 1,000 times. If you can do 100,000 even better. After all, they are definately NOT listening. I mean I've had my K100D for 2 years and the AF system is as bad now as it was the day I bought it. So I reckon we should push for the million post mark.
I don't care that 17 forum regulars died of boredom in the process, they were just a bunch of FANBOYS who didnt have the resolve to push this issue through! I mean I'm not happy so how DARE they be happy with Pentax cameras, the fools. If anyone is HAPPY and able to take decent PICTURES Pentax won't do ANYTHING and I wont get what I want.
After all its clear that they have no idea about the camera market, or how to design a camera. I don't buy this "limited development budget" crap one bit. They should of course have SR, and weatherproofing, and 20 lens AF adjust but they should ALSO AF as fast as a Nikon D300 at 8fps for the price of a christmas cracker present because thats what I WANT.
And they had better do an FF camera at the same time or I'm LEAVING!
And if they still wont LISTEN then I'll start a blog and tell all my friends to buy something else. That will teach them. They will definately listen to me then.
