Please Make Audiogon Cool

The thing is not all nonsense, disinformation and bad behavior violates the stated forum rules, so can’t rely on that alone ... There are no rules that cover nonsense and disinformation ... so its up to all good citizens to help make for a better place.

+1 bigtime, @mapman

Not tolerating nonsense, disinformation and bad behavior is cool. More people should try it.

Yup. And thank goodness the moderators are monitoring the abuses here, as evidenced by the deleted posts.

I have yet to see any "evidence" or "facts" presented, as least what would qualify as evidence or facts from an engineering / scientific stand point (you know, something that could stand up in court, or a scientific paper

There are thousands and thousands of facts on this forum and if you haven’t found any in your two days here, then it must be deliberate. This isn’t a scientific forum, where studies and facts are presented for peer review. This isn’t a legal forum, where depositions are taken under sworn oath and lawyers file writs and claims. This also isn’t the place to come to for information on how to care for aquarium fish, or how to grow cucumbers. If you’re looking for any of those things, you’re in the wrong place.

I just rejoined yesterday. I have been here before, but left when too busy getting a company off the ground.

As you are so found of saying with a wave of the hand: What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

my feelings are not unique. You may want to try being part of the solution instead of bullying.

If you think I’m bullying here, please alert the moderators. Otherwise, quit the claim because, you know: What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. I’ll just note that in your two days here, the moderators have deleted more of your posts than they have of mine in more than a decade.

Any actual engineers and scientists in the audio field, are quickly turned off by stuff like this, which has no basis in fact ... So how do you change things ...

There are lots of facts here, but you don’t like them. There is a lot of evidence here, but not the kind you like. There are also multiple actual scientists and engineers who regularly contribute here. But you just joined yesterday, so you can be somewhat forgiven for not recognizing that. If you stick around, you’ll likely find some here who are even smarter than you.
