Ok, maybe it should be “Moron of the Month” since I won’t be doing this again for a while.

By now, many people know that I have become rather knowledgeable in the world of Home Theater and have helped quite a few people on Neowin. find the right HD television for their personal needs. Needless to say, many started to catch on to this and it got to a point where a good five people, per day, would get in touch with me asking for in depth help. I just couldn’t deal with it anymore so I created this thread on Neowin explaining the situation and asking people not to contact me personally. I’ve had a few contact me to which I reply with a link to the thread and they apologize and create a thread and I get to it eventually. Well, yesterday I got my first PM in a while in which a certain member was asking for help. This is the ingenious way this moron handled things.

PM from him to me:

what do you think of the Philips 42PFL7432D

my gf wants to buy it tomorrow, but i’ve never seen it personally. i saw a great thread on AVS forum and everyone likes it. whats your thoughts. since you nitoriously work at BB, and she wants to buy it there, what do you think?

My reply:

His rather “special” reply:

wow… my respect for you just fell even more… but it’s ok, you work for Bestbuy!

So, let me get this straight: He doesn’t respect me, yet he comes to me for my opinion? Wait, wait, please don’t laugh too hard at him otherwise he may lose respect for you, too. This special member has just earned himself the first ever “Moron of the Week” award.
