The Internet

Ever realised something about the internet? If something a trend, development,or event in real- life is very significant, or has been received very well, it caused a backlash among the online communities.

E.g- Windows Vista is popular, so Windows Vista sucks.
Facebook is popular, Facebook sucks.

Likewise, if something is unpopular, it is favored, or thought highly of:

Macs are unpopular as compared to PCs, Macs are better than PCs.

Of course, there are exceptions, where a certain group of people continue to support the trend or development.

I'm just doing this for the posts ;)

I choose to disagree. It is not about things being "sucky" because they are popular, but its about people saying things are "sucky" because they use them. Do not believe me? Look at maplestory. Look at Starhub vs Singtel. Look at everything else. Macs are only better because less people use them.
