Being a bike spanner monkey for a living I get to try/use all of them in varying states of (dis)repair and to be honest any poorly set up system is going to seem worse than a properly set up one no matter what the shifter is.
I've used all three main types of gear change on my own bikes over the years (thumbies, rapidfire and gripshift), all for reasonable lengths of time (6 months + not just one ride) and got on with all of them.
Of my current rides/steeds 4 have thumbies, 3 have rapidfire and I have a brand new set of Sram Attack's sitting in a box waiting for a 9 speed rear end build (that I'd only thought about as a result of this thread )
