I didn't fail as a designer, only as a marketer. The design was/is good.
The speakers sounded good and nobody ever returned a pair.


Perhaps your failure to get myself and others to participate in your slander
had something to do with the fact the place seems to you to have
deteriorated. I can see how from your perspective, not having as much
spotlight to abuse and defame people might make it seem like the place has
gone to hell. I would say that the main difference here and now is that
the political discussions are a bit more polite than the audio ones.

Maybe you just need a bigger chair for your ego.

Same difference. You failed.

Perhaps you should have paid more attention in English class. If you had, this
statement might not be the train wreck that it is.

Actually, the place has gone to hell because it has been turned into a very
boring political forum dominated by your inane ramblings.

I would say that the main difference here and now is that
the political discussions are a bit more polite than the audio ones.

So you agree that it was always your intention to steer the newsgroup away from
audio and into politics.


Maybe you just need a bigger chair for your ego.

Nope. You can have the chair to yourself. In a few months, you will anyway.

An opinion you get to have.

Personal attacks are really all you have and yet you complain about
RAO being toast.

Not at all. There weren't any audio discussions to speak of.
The political discussions evolved from that fact.

Maybe you just need a bigger chair for your ego.

Nope. You can have the chair to yourself. In a few months, you will
anyway.


Then maybe those that wish to discuss audio related matters will feel free
to come back.
You might try leading by example.

Mike, I can't recall I ever had an argument with you.
But regardless of the emnity and/or other faults of others on this group,
they are right when they say that politics does not belong here.
My kudos to you for having manufactured and sold some loudspeakers. It shows
how precious you consider good audio, and your commitment to further it.
Please consider: for all its myriad faults, rec.audio.opinion is unique. It
has a specific purpose, even if that purpose is poorly served.
Help us out here, take it to one of the many other newsgroups that welcome
these discussions.
Even if some of the other nuts continue to beat the drum, you'll have the
satisfaction of knowing you did the right thing.

All the best,
Bob Morein

Neither do the personal attacks that Boon, Middius, Singh, and others seem
to relish.

When audio was the main topic of discussion here, it always deteriorated
into flame wars, primarily over ABX.

There have always been a few personalities that couldn't bear the fact that
it might be possible that much of what they thought they knew about audio
was probably wrong. The responses by these people, escalated the vitriol
level, until there was not much point in discussing audio.

At least when the political discussion are going on, ideas are being
discussed.

Help us out here, take it to one of the many other newsgroups that welcome
these discussions.

Why don't you help us out and simply confine your discussions to audio and
do so in a cordial, non confrontational manner. If there are those who
comments you find offensive, or off topic, don't read them.

Lead by example.

Even if some of the other nuts continue to beat the drum, you'll have the
satisfaction of knowing you did the right thing.

All the best,
Bob Morein


I always have that satisfaction. Even if people disagree with my ideas,
which I'm quite used to, I don't voice them for the purpose of trying to
make others feel small or less intelligent. I don't think there are many
others here who can say the same.

You won't find very many of the current off topic threads started by me.
If I choose to participate, I do so because they are more interesting than
what's being discussed elsewhere.

This is Usenet, nothing that goes on here has a whole lot of meaning in real
life. It's a passtime, nothing more.

Please tell us, Richard, how fat you really are. Only someone who is morbidly

If you took your political agenda to a more appropriate forum, and if Arny

Do you see what I mean Boon-Boon ?

*You* are the *pathetic* drama queen, Boon-Boon.

Nope, sorry. You are the attention whore who has spent months on an audio
forum where you cannot express yourself correctly so that others may understand
you, and you often misunderstand what others say to you. Evidently France is
not large enough to contain your melodrama.

Longer than it takes you to come up with anything beyond snide comments and
substantive discussion.
