ksimple,

Why don't you take your own advice and tone it down a smidge, hmmm?

I thought you were talking about me. My mistake! It's due to the view ... it was somewhat limited because my head was stuck up my ... you know, like he said.

"The view" ...ROFLMAO. Good recovery.

Someone came to the forum to ask a question and what happens? Does 2x6 ask for an explanation? Does he add anything intelligent? No, he comes back with a dull, insinuating, personal attack. Did the original poster say that 2x6 was a snob? No. His one liner "How's that remedial spelling class coming along?" is juvenile, ridiculous, laughable. I, personally, don't have a taste for tube amps either. So, what's next - is 2x6 going to poke fun at my screen name, or look for errors in my gramar. You were out of line and I called you on it. Then you tell me to kick my dog and drink. Come on...

We're talking about STEREO EQUIPMENT 2x6. How you can be so insecure with yourself as to be personally offended to the point of mocking others who don't share your 'passion' of a certain type of equipment is beyond me. Your opinion is fine, and you have your right to it, but attacking others' intelligence is not cool.


As for my "head up..." comment, I would like to apologize. It was also out of line. I don't understand why 2x6 is allowed these outburst, when others are immediately shunned.

Hey! My "cold pizza" post got deleted....what gives!

I liked that one. Yes, it was in response to ProTech's arguments, but I thought we were having a civil conversation up to a certain point. In any event, I thought that the comments made in that post were relevant to understanding 2X6's point of view....

Oh well, I guess that's the price we pay for trolls....

2X6 - I'll be there for you next time.

Do you hear yourself Ksimple? You're insulting me because you're worried I'm going to insult you? I'm not. Well, I probably won't, maybe a little, but anyway, you don't have to stop insulting me. It's a free country. Knock yourself out fella!

A lot of posts got deleted. I noticed this right after I pointed out that Pro Tech shares a lot of qualities with TechPro who fouled this forum a few weeks ago. I suspect it had to do with a particularly nasty post (by Pro Tech) directed at the moderator of this board which I read a few minutes before all the posts were deleted.

Don't feed the trolls!

Mark

I know! I particularly regret my defense of Amie as "our beautiful lady of the northern lakes ..." was deleted and Capn Pickard's cold pizza post, priceless and gone ...

While I wasn't trying to feed the trolls, you can only sniff one otu by engaging him at some level. We were engaged at a reasonable level to start, and the banter between us was initially civil. I suspect that Amie (justifiably) deleted all of his posts and replies to his posts...

I'm mostly kidding about having my posts deleted. My comments wouldn't mean very much without Protech's initial posts anyway. I was just bitching for the sake of bitching.

Sorry, i wasn't implying you were feeding the trolls...it was more of a general statement not directed at anybody in particular.

IMO, however, most trolls want attention, and the thing that will bother one the most is to be totally ignored.

Anyway, let's get back to discussing why 2X6 is wrong for liking tubes... that was a good time before the party got ruined.

(it's been a fun day on the boards)
