@amir_asr @amir_asr @amir_asr Why then do you not give that same courtesy and hospitality to Erin?
I did. Massively so. We helped him create his channel by giving him access to huge number of visitors. I even helped him get his Klippel system up and running and calibrate his measurements against a speaker I had tested. Once he got rolling this is how he finished his reviews:

A single post like that will get you banned on any forum, audio or otherwise. It didn't on ASR but we did warn him repeatedly that he should not do this. But he continued in various ways to pull traffic from us his site/channel with advertising, etc.
Eventually this came to a head, and he was banned. Alas, after he got his painful divorce, I unbanned him and he remains so as I type this. Members constantly link to and post his reviews/website. There is no more "courtesy" to be had to offer him.
There are no parallels between the above and my posting here. I am not creating new threads and posting links and pleading with money as Erin was doing. The membership here decided to create a thread specifically discussing ASR. Accusations are made against me/ASR which are disputed with factual quoting from ASR. Links to ASR are not commercialized with sponsored links, advertising, etc.
Knock on wood, ASR is larger than audiogon unlike the hugely reversed situation with Erin. So while he badly needed us to get started and collect money, we are in no such situation.
