MALIBAL Reviews

[hizzaah]

Very well put WCFire.. Are you participating in their forum? Xotic has a nice little user base in their forum, so hopefully things pick up for Malibal once their users get wind of their forum. I'm sure they're will be plenty of varied opinions there, just as there are here.

I don't know that some of your post was necessary misterhobbs, that's not up to me, but I agree with some of what you're saying. I don't think they were trying to be condescending, but then again that doesn't exactly seem like the type of thing MALIBAL would typically post lol. I wouldn't take what they're doing/saying too personally, some things just aren't worth the energy

I think individual forums are great for people who already have their products.

@hizzaah: I tried to come across as it just being my opinion of what I've been observing and maybe not all of it was necessary, but we all like to rant sometimes I've had more time than usual to kill and I've been blowing energy in these forums a lot.

I haven't been taking anything they've been saying personally. I'm just posting my opinion of how they have been coming across lately. Am I upset - no. Am I surprised - yes. Ever since I joined 3 months ago I've been scouring these forums everyday to make sure I buy the best laptop from the best company. Up until this point I was convinced they were a great place to buy from and was seriously considering them. After this I'm by no means convinced they are a bad company, but enough has happened to make me question them and buy elsewhere this time around.

I don't have any ill will towards Malibal. In fact, I hope all of this gets worked out eventually and they repair their reputation. We all benefit when there are a variety of good companies to choose from. Also, I hope that they return to these forums because they have been a valuable source of information and advice.

Again, I have time to blow and am ranting...

I completely understand that. I should be studying for finals.. Nooope, must post on NBR whilst browsing Reddit, listening to BBT reruns and watching Black Hawk Down (on Blueray btw).

From some of the things he's posted, MALIBAL sounds to be the owner of the company or at least someone fairly important. I know they are in the process of building and moving their company to a new facility, so that could attribute to some of the stress levels.

Anyways, everyone gets a bad wrap occasionally. I'm sure they'll just keep chuggin along. I'm gonna try and leave this thread now though. Would rather leave it for actual Malibal reviews, instead blabbing on about my speculation and opinions lol.

I agree with the last two posts, Malibal have been great in the past. They must be having some issues but I hope they keep doing what they do best.

Sure their costumer service have been a little out of touch lately.

We need companies like Malibal, Mythlogic and Xotic that provide us with the quality systems we are looking stuff and no BS in the middle at the best possible price

If not is just Dell, HP oh yeah and Apple.

This is just my opinion and I'm not saying the negative feedbacks should be ignored.

But for my future purchase I'll give Malibal a fair shot for comparison with everybody else.

In this discussion a lot of unnecessary drama. Creating your own space is undisputable righ of any company. Here at NBR no Apple no Dell no Asus and HP but we dont stop buying amazing devices of those companies. Found a negative opinion on few suspicious reviews unfairly.
Malibal for me is one of the best choice and im happy to register on their new forum. NBR like great social network but for purchase Lexus ill go to Lexus shop isnt it?
Sorry for my bad english

personally if u dont want to deal with bs, go to mythlogic. you spend a few more dollars, but get the best support ever. Im the type of person who finds a quality business, and sticks with them. And over the past 8 years, the only company i can say i havent had any problems with is myth. They will get more of my money when i upgrade my shell and hdd. However i dont think you can go wrong with any of the resellers that post here often.

Too true, dont let the drama thats been going on misguide you. The actions of one employee shouldnt reflect how a company opperates.

Agreed. I might even have been thrown away with the things that happened too, but this isn't a excuse to trash a company or set a infinite conclusion towards them.

[Maverick1987]

Never once in my thread did I suggest offering an "infinite conclusion" and I even specifically stated in my posts that I wasn't looking for discounts or anything like that, and yet Malibal (and others) brought the fury :P I have no beef with them really, if that's how they want to run their business then fine, I'll take mine elsewhere, end of the issue (no biggie, really).

I think pulling out of NBR is going to hurt them even more. I really hope that they can turn it around as they have had a sterling reputation until recently. I don't think many of us that had concerns were out to get them, and I don't like that they now can silence threads they don't like on their own forums "just because". Also, contrary to what the Malibal rep said, I don't think the NBR mods were out to get them, or if they were it was due to their own posts. I think this thread should be locked as nothing further is going to develop here. Malibal has left these forums, and they deserve there god given right to defend themselves. If they are unwilling to do so, lets move along, as now it just is unnecessary drama.
