What does it matter what he says? I happen to like StingTalk better than The Hive when it comes to discussing Tech but others don't. It is a matter of opinion. I personally think the Hive loves to act like some wonderful place that always has been rosy about Tech but in the 4 years that I've been reading it I can tell you that they have just as many (probably more) negative posters as StingTalk. That is the nature of message boards no matter if they are discussing sports, religion, politics, fashion, etc.
The problem with StingTalk is that the "positive" posters often times won't take the time to post something positive about Tech and pay too much attention to the "negative" posters post. Frankly it has been a tough couple of years for Tech and that typically brings out more negativity.
If you see a positive article about Tech, post it, if you see something happen that you think is positive, post your thoughts, and if you see a post that you think is too extreme, don't read it. Don't sit on the sideline and wait for things to change. Why not change them yourself?
