You impeach your credibility when you attempt to obfuscate. I have a finely-honed bullshit detector. Keep it direct and to the point.
I wonder how you can consider "good for management and interpersonal relationships" as "not selfish".Mr.Nobody wrote: ↑[…] Most company keep the salaries of employees secret but not for selfish or evil reasons, in fact it's good for management and interpersonal relationships.
If someone is makeing more money than you are , even though you think he deserves it but still you'll feel a little bit frustrated and jealous, this is human nature, whereas, the sense of fairness is quite subjective, "yeah that guy deserves a higher salary", but how much higher is fair, different people have different answers, if all salaries of employees are known to all, it will causes trouble for all...keeping it secret benefits not only the company but also employees ....generally it's a good and practicl policy before we figure out something better.kbdfr wrote: ↑I wonder how you can consider "good for management and interpersonal relationships" as "not selfish".Mr.Nobody wrote: ↑[…] Most company keep the salaries of employees secret but not for selfish or evil reasons, in fact it's good for management and interpersonal relationships.
The only reason for keeping the salaries of employees secret is if the wage structure is unfair and its public disclosure would give raise to complaints - which can reasonably be assumed would be from employees with lower wages.
Ask them if they are more interested in good "management and interpersonal relationships" or in higher wages
The secrecy about wages is good for the company, not for its staff.
Keeping them secret couldn't be more selfish.
But well, you already expressed your paternalistic, authority obedient views when you justified censorship.
Yes, it sounds similar to 太好（very good）if you have an accent or bad earsDaniel Beardsmore wrote: ↑I would not otherwise weigh in on such a ridiculous topic, but I felt that it made sense to ask Tai-Hao themselves.
My contact there hasn't been with the company since the 1960s—I think he joined in the 90s—so the origin of the name may not be clear now. His reply was that Chinese pronunciation of "Tai-Hao" is quite similar to "very good", so that's the explanation that he's adopted (I've never asked him what he does there, but one site has him down as VP of sales). He seems to find this whole topic as absurd as I do.
.then why just use 太好 as the brand name instead they had chosen 太豪? I don't give damn what he does there or what kind of VP of sales of what kind of obsecure site he is working for to make a living, but this "I don't know better but I don't want to admit you know better ,so I have to accuse you being absurd." strategy is too amature....Enlighten me, how could I be absurb by illustrating precisely the true meaning and undertone of Tai Hao?" You can ask your accented salesman friend this question next time you talk to him 
Interesting. Makes me wonder about OP even more. Of course it would never have remotely come into question for me to post something like this in my first month at DT.Daniel Beardsmore wrote: ↑I would not otherwise weigh in on such a ridiculous topic, but I felt that it made sense to ask Tai-Hao themselves.

) Possibly something good will come out of this for us in terms of Tai-Hao keyboard / switch information. This comes to mind:Daniel Beardsmore wrote: ↑Felly already noted "I just cannot imagine why people discuss our brand name so seriously" and he's not intending to debate the matter. He is far more concerned that people pay attention to their product range than the name attached to it. I've pointed him in Chyros's direction, as keyboard reviews are his area. Considering how long they've been in this market it does disappoint me that we have very little understanding of their products outside of keycaps, but they will insist on using big ass enter!

Interestingly enough you do not even mention the (certainly widely predominant) case where people earning less think the ones better paid do not deserve a higher salary.Mr.Nobody wrote: ↑If someone is makeing more money than you are , even though you think he deserves it but still you'll feel a little bit frustrated and jealous, this is human nature, whereas, the sense of fairness is quite subjective, "yeah that guy deserves a higher salary", but how much higher is fair, different people have different answers, if all salaries of employees are known to all, it will causes trouble for all...keeping it secret benefits not only the company but also employees ....generally it's a good and practicl policy before we figure out something better.kbdfr wrote: ↑[…] The secrecy about wages is good for the company, not for its staff.

Yes, most of those who earn less are just envious of those who make more money, just like ugly girls hate beautiful ones and call them sluts,and most of those who can't get what they want always find excuses to justify themselves(which is a natural reaction to frustration) they may say to themselves: "That lucky bastard, if I were come from a better family or had a rich dad or a better chance,I would..." This is a typical losers gripe, as a self-made businessman ,I usually reply this " If you are as good as I am you will make as much as I do, I don't come from a better famliy nor do I have a rich dad, and there are many who started low,lower than you, but end up high, at least higher than you, don't numb yourself with excuses find solutions and exalt yoursefl by learning and working harder.kbdfr wrote: ↑Interestingly enough you do not even mention the (certainly widely predominant) case where people earning less think the ones better paid do not deserve a higher salary.Mr.Nobody wrote: ↑If someone is makeing more money than you are , even though you think he deserves it but still you'll feel a little bit frustrated and jealous, this is human nature, whereas, the sense of fairness is quite subjective, "yeah that guy deserves a higher salary", but how much higher is fair, different people have different answers, if all salaries of employees are known to all, it will causes trouble for all...keeping it secret benefits not only the company but also employees ....generally it's a good and practicl policy before we figure out something better.kbdfr wrote: ↑[…] The secrecy about wages is good for the company, not for its staff.

So no wonder your conclusion is "if all salaries of employees are known to all, it will causes trouble for all...keeping it secret benefits not only the company but also employees".
Obviously you belong to those who, earning more, take it for granted that they deserve it.
For someone who claims having studied psychology, you seem to grossly overlook the argumentation bias this implies
And to all you folks who want to discuss keyboard matters: please open a new thread
This one, as seebart soon recognized, obviously was intended as a propagandistic statement which, unfortunately for the OP, turned into a political discussion not subject to the kind of censorship he is used to.
Interestingly enough this does not infirm, but in fact confirms, my argument that keeping wages secret is for the sole benefit of the company and of those who earn more, but certainly not of those who earn less.Mr.Nobody wrote: ↑Yes, most of those who earn less are just envious of those who make more money,

And again we are presented with the never-ending self-praise of those conceited delusional egoists who insist that their success if due only to their inherent qualities and has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with any external circumstances.
I suppose your alleged psychology studies involved statistics.
If so, you will certainly agree that if all have equal chances, the composition of the category of the rich should quite exactly reflect the composition of the overall society. If there is a certain percentage of, say, extremely poor persons in the society, then among the rich the percentage of those stemming from these paupers should be around the same.
Of course we all know it is by no means, be it in Western democracies or in other forms of societies.
There can be only two reasons for that: either as an internal factor the children of poor people are per se (quoting you) "losers", which implies that children of such parents in fact do not have equal starting chances, or other external factors related to their poverty play a role.
Both cases invalidate the ridiculous theory of those "I deserve it because I am better" fetichists.
