That's just not cool. Yes, thank you, that is exactly why I'm hesitant to like Ruby. Especially as, during the whole design incident, so many people responded with things like "I'm never going to buy a PFX Vocaloid, and good riddance, because they were all terrible but Oliver anyway". Big Al, Yohioloid, and Sweet Ann are my three favorite Engloids. It did seem to me like those three bore the brunt of the hatred from Ruby fans, and perhaps even some of the actual people behind Ruby.

I've noticed similar attitudes with Dex and Daina too, though not as strong, with people talking about how they're revolutionising English Vocaloids, sometimes seeming to imply that the old ones won't be necessary anymore. If people treated Ruby, Dex, and Daina like new additions rather than replacements, I'd be a lot less resenful towards them.

(Sorry, I've been feeling the need to rant about this for a long time. I hope this doesn't qualify as off-topic.)
