I agree too Trelija. I'm reasonably new but it is in serious decline. I think Audiogon have blew it too with their revamp. Now I've seen a few threads that are obviously designed to win points and frankly they've been done before and are dull as ditchwater. The petty vendetta's too have spoiled threads and I see a fair bit of hypocrisy surrounding this too,who cares who started it if it's going to go on and on and on? Audiogon keeps this forum because they are in buisness,nothing wrong with that, everybodys got to eat but they are only interested in being fair when it suits..take the Hello Hi-fi debacle how much of a cover up was that? Flamers have taken over because the threads are not being managed properly and throwing it back to us won't solve it...what's happened since the revamp? It's got worse that's what. Personally I only use Audiogon for the forum,the ability to buy and auction is great but not practical if you live in the UK. I will have the odd look and search anything I'm interested in but otherwise I'll be visiting less.
Is it cabin fever or what???
Am I mistaken, or lately I see a lot of posts that seemingly are only started for the wrong reasons? They seem incredibly antagonistic, basically just being thrown out to garner a reaction. Somewhat like yelling "FIRE" in a movie theater. I try to refrain from such ridiculous threads, but they sure seem to draw a lot of responses. Some of these threads have been the most flat boring reading I have seen on this site. And the other reaction I have is, "Who cares?". Even if these people did believe what they are saying, the only reactions they engender are anger or boredom. Does anyone else share my opinions?
