I posted a deal, and check what I got as a reply:

The reviews you link to on Amazon are horrible.

Apparently the memory card support doesn't actually work...

In case if we don't like or if the deal is not for

us. do we have to reply in this bad way?

of this reply..

IMO, PM the person who made that comment & ask them to elaborate on it.

That person was commenting on the reviews the product got on Amazon. Out of 25 reviews, about 12 were 2 stars or less. People cited problems ranging from poor or nonexintent customor support, to the external memory not being recognized by the player. This player is hit or miss and that person was just commenting on that.

Don't take what posters say too personally. He was just saying the reviews weren't good so the product is not good, blah blah. As the part where he said why post it if you don't like the deal, that part (IMHO) is unnecessary as 128 might not be good for you but might be good for someone else. You are only sharing the deal and people can decide on their own if they want to go ahead with it or not themselves.

I've been discouraged many times also, but I learned to not take things personally and then you'll see that it's not a big deal. :) Don't give up posting deals!

It's so hard to make emotions and tone known on the Internet. It's easy for people to "stick their foot in their mouth", or come across as terribly rude, without meaning to. I can't speak for the poster who made those comments to you, but perhaps they didn't mean to sound as bold as what you took it to mean.

Read his comment carefully again... slowly this time.

The word "horrible" was used to describe the reviews given on Amazon.com for that product. Your assumption was incorrect.

ya, he was talking about the reviews, not you or your thread. I liked his reply because it let others know that this product may not be all that great, and buyer beware.

Even if the really did happen to be a personal attack, because, one day, it will be, here's my advice:

Don't question why people do what they do. They do what they do because they are those type of people. Liars lie because they are liars; that's why we call them liars. To ask why they lie would be naive. Rude people are rude because they are simply rude people--that's why we call them the rude people. To expect otherwise would also be naive. Let them be what they are.
