    overclocker's forum

    http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/sho...7723518&page=1

    the link is to one many post i have recently seen on overclocker's ridculing/ anti islamic/muslim view's.i am rather surprised that this computer supplier doesn't pose restrition on the ridule these people and offense they cause, think in future i will avoid overclocker and will tell my friend also to avoid this computer supplier who clearly welcome's abuse/ridcule. is this the right place to air such view's on public forum.?

    Well you'll find quite a few OCUK defectors here, and we try to pride ourselves on being a very friendly forum.

    Welcome to hexus Zia, I hope you'll stay a while.

    I have to disagree, they're a pretty good retailer, but run by people with extreme (right wing ?) views.

    That makes it a decision based on morals as to whether you use them or not ?.

    So I'll just step in here to remind new and old members that whilst we do not in anyway wish to stop anyoine airing their views, we do want everyone to remember that a slagging off of a company is frowned upon unless you have proof to back up your particular story.

    Personally, I last used OCUK a good five years ago and the service was fine. I stopped using them for various reasons, mainly the apparent drop in standard of service and difficulty with RMAs. That said, I never had any trouble with them myself.

    3 members on the first page alone are either banned or suspended.

    Forum colours are vile too.

    That said, I've placed three orders in the last three months and been impressed each and every time.

    only posted to see if people agreed with the comment's,in no way am whinging that people are making antislamic post's critism/ridicule is second nature to most type of people.this is the only forum that i've seen openly making lot's post's on this particualr subject.(suppose there are many others) perhap givng it wider audience will give better overall picture how other people feel regarding this subject, been member on this forum and other's for age's never once will you see me post **** like this, how many muslim come here slating christendom/judaism?.in no way am saying you do not have the right to free express,but when do you stop from free expression to open ridicule/demeening hate mongering clearly these post going have equal negative effect on 3.4% muslim of the population.is it appropriate to make your feeling heard in such public manner, every forum has rule's against promoting contention/hate/racism

    ridicule/racism only breed's hatred.hatred and anger lead's to evil.

    Overclockers have great service, regardless of their moral, religious or political tendencies...

    Has anyone seen the forum of defectors from OCuK?
    (cant find the link right now & i need to revise, hopefully someone else will have it and be a legend and post it for me )


    And the OCuk forum is seriously oppressed, you cant say a bad word against the company, cant post links to ANY other forums and you basically can only say things that they let you say

    firestorm.......they don't! I can hardly call waiting 6 weeks (and chasing it up almost every day in the final week) to get a refund for something sent back under the DSR good service!

    I think theres a reason they aren't on hexus trust

    After enough court cases forcing OCUK into bankrupcy, I think Hexus will need to upgrade its servers

    There will be mass amounts of refugees coming here

    how many muslim come here slating christendom/judaism?
    That's not to say it doesn't happen elsewhere. Dare I say, out of all religions, those who practice Islam seem most interested in alternative religions (Christianity for example), specifically in pointing out why they're flawed in comparison.

    laze.

    Scan and yoyotech are sponsors here, they are generally reliable, but by no means are they the only good companies... look in hexus trust for feedback on various companies
