Yes, over the AG existence the population has been widdled down to an overwhelming majority who are in line with or are in love with the oligarchy, but this recent spirt of team spirit posts is getting a little weird. I actually would like to see people like John Easton & Felix, or Romy post here to add some interesting perspective, but I am content to frequent other sites and the status quo is probably for the better. They all have pros and cons(except AR which is horrible). Cheers darling, ta-ta.
Thank you Audiogoner's for your civilized attitude
I am fairly new to Audiogon and have enjoyed reading posts, answering a few, and even asking some questions. I would like to thank everyone here for their always civil responses and very helpful insights.
On the other hand, I have been reading posts at AA and at Audioreview.com and am surprised by the behavior of some responses in some threads at both places. It's almost as if posting at one or the other of them is similar to picking a fight with a paranoid drunk in a crowded bar.
I like lively debate as much as the next person - but I don't enjoy reading, or being the subject of personal insults and attacks such as I have observed at AA in various threads, and the vicious attacks leveled at some of the posts in the systems galleries at Audioreview.
Thanks again to Audiogon and all it's members for keeping the bar high and providing quality information exchange.
