Slinky's post would have been an amusing farce if he had ended it quickly. But even after it was clear that many people believed, or wanted to believe, he kept it going, with promises to post more detailed information later, and lies about waiting for confirmation from Sprint, etc. If he had ended it after about 20 or 30 posts, it would have been funny. As it is, it's just obnoxious.
But he's not alone. What about the post from someone else forwarding what was purported to be an email from Sprint that said yes, we're working on the 800? That seems likely a lie, too.
In the end, Slinky seems to believe that because he thinks it was funny, it doesn't matter what he did, or how anyone else feels. "Me first, who cares about anyone else." I think that's what grates on everyone.
