Overheard at Infendo Headquarters: “I really do like our readers”
Monday, March 16th, 2009 at 8:00am by Boss Hog
Last week, Infendo managing editor David Cole spoke oh so kindly of visitors to Infendo. “I really do like our readers,” he proudly said, in an unexpected email sent to staff. “It’s really nice to see some well thought out comments like this. This is definitely what makes Infendo unique.”
Without missing a bit, senior editor Jack Loftus quipped, “Yeah, then a non-contributing douche bag like [name withheld] mucks it all up. I wonder what it’s like to have no life whatsoever.”
I know I speak for everyone at Infendo when I say we love both kinds of readers. The former are more welcome, but we’ll take the good with the bad any day. Reader participation truly is Infendo’s biggest asset, so thanks for visiting—whether an intellectual, a fanboy, or even a troll.
Now I’m off to counting all this money Nintendo so generously decided to share with us. All in a day’s work.

What did I ever do to you Jack? I’ll stop callling you pumpkin-head.

Aww.
We love you too, David.

Thanks to David and the Infendo staff, I didn’t respond to that particular post but I agree, it’s refreshing to see well thought out and articulated points and arguements in the comments and in the forums. You don’t see that everywhere. Glad to hear that the Infendo admins and contributors appreciate that too.
So again, kudos to the Inferndo readers!

I think Jack was referring to me.

This is one of the reasons I like Infendo so much. Not only are the stories top notch, but the comment sections are frequently filled with intelligent, well thought out, and entertaining opinions instead of the usual ranting I see a lot on the internet. Keep up the good work, both Infendo and commenters!

Jack WOULD be the expert on being a non-contributing douchebag.

Yeah, I agree. Some readers make some good points here. I guess, that’s one of the reasons I keep reading almost every post and every comment here at infendo.
I’ve written like one or two comments over the last couple of years, but I definitely read what everyone else has to say.
Congrats to infendo and its readers/commenters. I hope it stays that way.

If I was the man who made well thought out comments, THANKS!
If I was a non-contributing douchebag… sniff sniff… Why~? What did I ever do to you?
Hah! Just kidding. Thanks David! Sorry for whatever I might’ve done to piss you off, Jack! I consider it constructive critizism! (I think.)
