I know I am one guy who has thoughtfully and carefully stated my argument and I wouldn't have spent so much time on it if I didn't care about the HD800. I do care and that it why I titled my post to bite hard. I made the title of thread difficult to forget and I meant every word of it. It is fine that you disagree here but I have yet to read one post that bashes the HD800. In any case, even if someone did bash the HD800, how is that a moral pejorative? If someone praises something then it is "good". If someone bashes something then it is "bad". I just don't see the connection myself. One thing we know for sure on this thread is that the HD800 is spray-painted silver plastic. The aversion to this kind of treatment on electronics, or cars for that matter, does not only apply to the HD800, but is a ubiquitous practice everywhere one looks. It just so happens that the HD800, which is Sennheiser's new reference headphone, has decided to wear the same jacket as so many others in this business, and being that this is a headphone forum, has invited praise and protests alike. I don't find anything wrong with it wnmnkh.

First of all, I usually interpret a wall of text like this as indication that a writer has no concern about others; from your perspective, you have no problem reading this because the massages are already in your head.
We, however, do have problem, since we have no previous knowledge on what you wrote, and are forced to read this wall of text to understand.
If you think you care about other people, then this is very bad habit and I strongly suggest you to fix it.
Now I also recommend you to reread the whole things you wrote. You have been very sarcastic and unwilling to accept the FACT that why sennheiser had to choose plastic over other materials, that's what makes me annoying. Such actions, I define as 'bashing.'
By the way, the thread you quoted was the response to a guy who misread my saying (I said “all of HD800 related topics need to be locked”, not this thread only.) in first time.
I don't dislike the thread. My gripe is that I am annoyed by a bunch of people who complain that Sennheiser did not use exotic materials to make HD800. (edit : woot teh contradiction!)
Hmmm wow.
So you guys want Sennheiser to use magnesium frame, for instance, which will degrade the sound due to vibration?
What you guys are asking is “please compromise sound quality for shiny metal!”
That is, as krmathis said, hilarious.
We are.... talking about the reference headphones which should give us supreme, uncompromised sound quality, and you (yes, david you) are asking Sennheiser to abandon this most important point of HD800.
If you keep saying that those exotic materials, say like ones used for Sony R-10, are better choice for sound quality, then I shall post a long article with some good pictures to educate you about technologies and materials used on R-10.
