So far on this thread crackin and Beta are 2 that have given good advice. Why not see where others stand, for fun. Do you post comments just for the sake of trying to make others annoyed? Why else do you state the obvious.

I know there are a million and 1 choices for speakers and AVRs, polls are just for fun and mean nothing. Anyway, the OP has to listen to some stuff and make his own choice.

Some of you .....know how to suck the fun out of every thread and turn a person's post around to put them on the defensive.

I am done. I have had enough with you guys. There are a few people I've met in this forum that I can talk with, and I will PM them. You know who you are and I thank you for the advice over the last 6 months.

edit: July 4th, Why was my message edited and my comment on mods removed? Big Brother did you remove my comment and replace it with .... ? Not cool, all I said was some mods can suck the fun out of threads. Is this an American site? or is it controlled by communist China? Happy 4th of July! Go ahead and delete this if you want, but changing what people write and read is something out of 1984. Are any of the mods in the Mininstry of Truth?

And yes, my post was being sarcastic. I think every speaker choice should come down to nothing else but auditioning and personal preference. He has been given some great choices, now go out and listen. As far as users asking for mod status, ummm yeah he and I are both mods. But, I think you will find most of the mods at this forum pretty easy going and far from wanting to suck the fun out of any thread. Most breathe life into one.


Anyway, since it was your last post I don't expect response. Nice having you and hope you return.

We're all friends here (except Crackin' .... gotta keep an eye out for the bat!!)
Some people just tend to get irked by polls (I find some amusing, some good for getting a feel for what the majority here thinks, and others simply good for nothing!)

Either way.... have a good holiday if you celebrate it, and come back to join the fun!

1. I didn't mean to offend you - I know how polls can go - but I also know how things can erupt. I'm all for engaging discussion and I know that both speakers bring different things to the table.
2. I don't have to ask for mod status ... I am one (that was meant to be funny )
3. I couldn't agree with the poll because it didn't include JasonR's system as well !

You took my post too personal - not hammerin' ya Didn't mean it to come across that way - apologies to you if it came across wrong (obviously it did).

P.S. I love BD, don't mind grain (my eyesight is too bad to really see it anyway), and enjoy models from every maker you stated you hate for one purpose or another.

Arbitrary moderating is just something you have to learn to live with here. It happens. It's all funny to ridicule someone over it until it happens to you. The problem is that it usually takes somebody who is already upset about something, and then really spins them into a dither when they find that they are not allowed to express themselves, even when they are following the rules and a person they are arguing with is not. It is not helpful. Mods are human too, and not all of them are exemplary. Too bad, but there's really nothing that can be done about it.

as for the members who tick you off, instead of leaving the site, perhaps you could use the 'Ignore List' that way you don't have to read their posts. Might make things a bit more tolerable.
