I think I'm just more skeptical than you are that minds can be changed. But you're probably right about new people in the hobby being open to new information.

Unfortunately you are probably correct. Hence why I am not nearly as engaged in this hobby as I used to be. I do think the cheaper sets that vendors are coming out with should help a lot because I really want people to be able to get the sets they want but we can’t pretend like it doesn’t have an impact. Good on you for making the change though.

I'd never buy clones during an open GB or advertise or promote them.

I have to admit to purchasing some in the past few months, purely because it's next to impossible to find good caps with korean legends and GB wasn't an option since I wanted to make a build for someone in time for Christmas. I didn't feel good about it though.

I'm not likely to go for clones in the future, especially not for myself.

Yeah and I think that is the big key. They shouldn't be promoted or discussed. Like I have seen people buy a clone set while they wait for their GMK set and I can respect that. Kind of like ripping a CD you own lol.
