I wish you guys could see how excluded people feel when four or five of you guys jump somebody's case for something while another 3 or 4 silently sit clicking the "Like" buttons... And I'm being totally Serious

I don't see any other cliques. I see the same 10 or so posters ganging up on a couple different posters a couple nights a week. These same posters seems to be part of a group that share a sig. I'm trying to understand the mentality. It's not like I go to the rba section and see micro coil vs 3 wrap coil bully fights.
I'm not sure how I should take that. I hope it is in friendly jest.
"About the name...
Phidias was the name, like Cher, or Madonna of that kick .... 5th. Century sculpture credited with designing, among other things, the freise of the Parthenon in Greece, he is also the namesake of the math equation PHI which is better known as the Golden Mean Ratio or Divine Proportion of
1 to 1.618
Here's a video about the Divine Proportion
The golden mean - YouTube
The standard Phidias Feeder PV is my homage to Phidias and the Golden Mean...
Hence the name...and that you'll find
your Phidias' Feeder's width will be 1.618 its thickness, and its height to be 1.618 its width.
The power button and inlays follow this proportion as well---the proof of the divine proportion will be found in just the holding of it.
I love the mysteriousness and coolness of it all...." - fonosmoak

If it is a discussion then why are those that like their ProVari not welcome? Can you have a one sided discussion? It seems that every time ProVari is brought up lately people are looking to bash the fanbois. This has gone on for a long time and really should stop. Those that have one know and those that don't hate because they think there is some cult involved.
The whole cult thing, and I am giving away a secret here, is due to the total hater mentality displayed. We are criticized for loving a mod but the people who post hate are not criticized for their fanboi hate of a mod, most of which have never even tried or owned it. My post of love is met by your post of hate and I am the idiot. Double standard anyone?

Then it is not having a mod in the sig that matters. It is having one specific mod when one is part of a certain clique. Or maybe it is having that one particular mod that makes them part of the clique? If the last is true that is patently unfair to anyone that has a provari and simply wants to advertise for them, part of a clique or not.
In my case I enjoy my REOs. Given their performance and durability I CHOSE to advertise the REO in my sig. I also have a provari on order. Doesn't change the fact that I am predominantly a REOnaut. I just needed to face the vapocalypse with one durable variable mod that might have a prayer of holding up for years. Lord knows my vamo won't last that long.
I have a ProVari graphic (because I made the dang thing and I think it's pretty), but the text also identifies my use of Sigelei, Phidias and Reo. I use to have a Vamo in there too, but I ran out of space. I get so confused, which cult am I in?
We know you enjoy Reo's, you remind us in every thread. Why do you call yourself a Reonaut? It's just strange to me. I enjoy several different mods for several reasons. I have different ones set up for every occasion. I don't identify myself with any one mod.
There are a ton of popular, expensive APV's. Why don't they have the haters? The Reo forum is busy. They don't get into bully fights over there. Here's my guess, it's not the actual Provari that annoys people.
I'm familiar with the Golden Ratio more than I ever wanted to be being a drop out architecture student..We also have a replica of the Parthenon in Nashville. I mistakenly thought you were saying that the provari was to be considered amongst such regal company...My Bad.
I am a REOnaut because that is what I use 90% of the time and because I think the name is cute. No big conspiracy there. As for me saying it I will be danged if I will be ashamed of it since it is the truth.
As for bully fights ... it take 2 to fight and I see you doing just as much bullying as anyone else. With that I am out of this fight. GO ahead and take your last potshot at me. I won't be responding.
The Phidias is my favorite mod that's why I posted a picture.
And yet you yourself silently clicked Like on all of b1sh0p's posts. Hasn't it occurred to you that there might be nothing nefarious about anyone else doing the same? The thread title has Provari in it, were you expecting Provari owners to not read it? Why are you surprised that there would be more Provari owners than not, and that they'd stick up for themselves?
I also find the victim mentality odd. "Stick up for themselves?" This thread was about why the Provari hasn't been cloned, not why do you think people dislike the Provari or hate me for owning one.
I wonder if the Reo owners think the VMod owners dislike them?
I did not...Go back and look and then edit your mistake plz. The post that I liked I clicked "like" on but I clicked like on another persons post because I thought it was funny(the bless your heart post)...and right after this post clears I shall hit like on your post to further prove you wrong.
I dunno why they haven't been cloned yet. As for the side discussion, it's exasperating when I, or others, ask for recommendations with requirements that exclude a Provari, or a Reo, and someone suggests it anyway. It happens so frequently that it's now a running joke.
Where did you study psychology?
To me it seems like maybe you haven't, based on your posts I have observed.

I can assure you of one thing, the signature is not, nor will it ever be, for your approval. You may ask this question for a very long time, and still never know the "why"
