Default Are there any REAL audio groups anymore?

In the days of old (early Internet), I used to really enjoy these USENet
groups. Now they are such a dissapointment. I miss the days where we really
talked about audio instead of...well; it is just sad what is discussed here.

-ZZzzzz....-

You mean how to qualify for the Usenet Morons Society? Yes, that's pretty
tame stuff compared to vacuuming pubic hairs out of circuit boards.

I just did a quick search for your wonderful posts... all zero of them.
Do you have anything to offer other than whining?

Why don't you start an actual thread about something that interests you?

Otherwise, don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.

Well don't post HERE then. It's all opinion and no audio (nearly).

There are several other audio groups with useful content.

Unless they are properly broken. Then we like the sound, which is all
alike. It's like when I mike one of the many bands that don't pay me
to record them because I do it out of love. I break their amps too. I
do that out of love too and they don't pay me for that either too.

I hate tube amps and turntables, but it was necessary to make an alliance of
convenience. All these years, I have hidden my bitterness, each time a
stylus skated across vinyl, each time another "audiophile" slobbered
gushingly at the obscenity called Red Seal. Each time, I said, "Let it go.
Revenge shall be mine, just like Freddy Krueger got his." I scraped the axe
blade along the back of my hand, just enough to draw the blood that
symbolizes Red Seal, and carefully put it back in it's antirust, antistatic,
lambswool axe sheath. But the carefully hatched plot to destroy Freddy's
brother, Arny Krueger, is almost ready to bear fruit. And then, and
Then,...And THen,...,AND THEN!!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!


So tell me: how many GOIAs can Dance on the Head of a Pin?

(This is a trick question, as no Good Baptist would ever be caught
Dancing.)

Token audio remark: I wire my speakers with #20 zipcord. How about you?


I use speaker cable that has braided solid-gold conducters which have
been hand-selected from hair plucked from the Heads of Angels. Not
everybody has access to cable like this, but I do because I know God
personally. It sounds Heavenly.

God gave me a really good deal on it too. But beware! There are
counterfeit cables made from look-alike conductors scrounged from the
Hairbrushes of Demons. These Demons Dwell in the Sewer. These cables
Sound like ****.

What are you trying to insinuate? Everything of course all sound
"alike"! And if you start throwing audiophool gobbledyook at me, all
that "bass slam, pace, rythm, soundstage, imaging, depth, smearing ,
skin effect, strand interaction, warmth, bloomy, analytical, bass bloom,
analog-like, transparency" all that stuff will get into big trouble!

Try to be more origional!

And yes! We know! Your wife heard the difference from another room!
Yawn. Next.

Sighted listening should be avoided at all costs! If you find yourself
looking at your amp, or CD player, or lamp wire when listening to music
the first thing to do is stop listening and match those levels! Also,
sighted eating, smelling, seeing, touching and for instance f.cking are
also prone to bias and should be level matched!

Next.

It is true that Arns isn't posting as much to RAO as he used to, but I
think that's because fewer and fewer people are willing to engage him in
'discussion'.

Did you notice his lame attempt to troll JA? No one bit, but I'm sure if
he had been challenged we'd be witnessing another fine display of The
Debating Trade.

Turdy inaugurated the seasonal version several years ago. It came on the
heels of his arrest and conviction for stalking and kiddie porn
trafficking. He got probation as part of the plea bargain, but he needed
somewhere to take out his frustration, so lucky us. ;-)

It is a good thing that you villiage idiots are bothering your betters less
frequently. Trouble is that your continual senseless chatter makes the
place look like a place where only stupid people post. That's the essence of
the OP, and that's the reputation of RAO.


I'd suggest leaving before your reputation gets sullied.

Yep, so many of the NGs are just troll bait. It used to be much better.
Moderated groups are one option. RAHE is generally a pretty good place.
Arny's posting style is usually quite different there than it is here.

Token audio remark: I wire my speakers with #20 zipcord. How about
you?


I use speaker cable that has braided solid-gold conducters which
have
been hand-selected from hair plucked from the Heads of Angels. Not
everybody has access to cable like this, but I do because I know God
personally. It sounds Heavenly.


God gave me a really good deal on it too. But beware! There are
counterfeit cables made from look-alike conductors scrounged from
the
Hairbrushes of Demons. These Demons Dwell in the Sewer. These cables
Sound like ****.


You're crazy, man! I'm walkin the other way, fast. Just remember, I'm
your
friend. OK? OK?


I have no friends here because I immorally use swear words sometimes.
Therefore you are not my friend. Therefore watch your back.


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


You are really whacked, man. You need an autopsy.


I've already had one.


Well what did they take out man? You can really spew. You need to have that
looked at, cause they din't get it all. I know a guy who lost his license so
he can do it cheap.


Din't they? I feel ripped off now. You get what you pay for in
autopsies, just like in anything else in life.

Oh well. Some moron who called himself "Bwian" referred me to him.
Bwian lost his license too, due to criminal activities, so they had
that going for them, which is good.

Is this one of your audio posts?


Are you suggesting the snot quotient was too low for this post to qualify?

I don't know for how long, but I knew that he was banned
for some period of time. The moderators told me that
he's being watched very carefully.


It is lovely to catch Jenn in two deceptions in one post.

(1) There are not moderators, and there haven't been for over a year. There
is a moderator.

(2) There are only about 6 people posting on RAHE with any frequency at all,
so of course all posters are watched very carefully.

Jenn sure does like to put on the airs, now doesn't she?
