Not that long ago some threads made me look back at some of what I'd said so many years ago. I wound up going off on a tangent & reading other threads, some which I'd never seen; others I'd passed over.
I wasn't searching for anything in particular. Waxing nostalgic perhaps?
I look through the threads when I have time. I'm pretty new here so there's a lot of information out there and I appreciate all of the knowledge shared. I just wish I had more time to peruse the forum.
Thank you. I will see what that does and probably with some searching through related topics I will come across knowledgeable experiences. It’s neat to have so much information available.
@jolywinsI don’t think there is an “archived” threads section within the forum. When I’m looking for older threads on a certain topic I usually use the search function and the “sort by date” and “sort by title only” functions.
I am trying to access older threads about streaming which is what I need help with. However I can’t figure out how to see threads that are archived. Just current ones ?? jolywins
What I find hysterically funny is when someone resurrects an old thread (and, sometimes, they're REALLY old), and answers it as if the last post were just a couple of hours ago.
I sometimes research an informative answer. I will go back and see and read all the answers this Poster has answered. I would think this is pretty common.
Visiting is one thing. Answering/posting to an old thread is another that wastes peoples time when thry look at the date. Imagine if someone added to a Bob Crump post?
Many are deleted or unavailable. This site goes in circles. Balanced, XLR, RCA, passive, active, damping factor etc just repeat endlessly in repeated threads.
Absolutely1 I find many interesting and well informed topics that have educated me and expanded my knowledge base. It`s also cause me to appreciate and seek out certain member`s posts for their consistent high quality contributions.
I returned to this great hobby about 3 years ago. Without all of the various audio forums available to me on the internet my education would be stunted. I have learned so much from many threads that I return to week after week. With the many thoughts and ideas from the authors my humble system continues to surprise me after I try another tweak or another experiment.
I'll re-visit old threads to see if I owe anyone a reply or to just read and catch up. I like looking through the archives because there is a lot of info in there.
About one week ago there was a new reply to a thread I started in 2005. That's six years ago so I went back and reread the entire thread. It was very entertaining and informative. Amazing how much you can learn here.
