The best and worst Audiogon poster's

John_1: thanks for the kind words. But you've got to know that YOU too are certainly a credit to this forum for your indomitable sense of humor and open mind. I've got to say that adding adding Carl to your "good" list is a class act-- and I agree. The "Forum" would be a less intertesting and more boring place without Carl. Cheers, and Happy New Year to all of AudiogoN. Craig.

John, I do apologize for asking you, and wasting your precious time........................Hmm, I must say that John has definitely discouraged me from further participation here. I'll take it into consideration, anyway. (I hear applause from all over the world about now...all of you have a good chuckle on me, till you puke...)....................................Comparing me to a bottom feeder like Larry Flint...you are too kind, and full of "class", and certainly MATURITY AND HONOR befitting your age and upbringing. Congratulations John, your superior intellect, mind tricks, and general false analogies and false patronization are doing the trick well........................And thinking/wishing? someone had "offed" me in real life too?....hmm, I understood that we were supposed to have love and compassion for our fellow man. I'll pray for you, John. And by the way, since we are flagrantly and nauseatingly patronizing each other here, I'll add you to my "list of favorites" too!! I bet you feel all warm inside..knowing that you're one of my favorites, AND that I'll be praying for you (lol!).......................I AM NOT RUDE. Technically, I never draw first blood. I simply vigorously defend my opinion, and even myself from presonal attacks that break Audiogon's forum rules here, and I will not apologize for doing so.............................If I break the rules, I'm gone. If you guys break them by attacking me, you get a pat on the back (you know from whom). Yes John, indeed no one has hurt me physically, and they aren't able to, besides. John, you are absolutely a "class act"...continue to pat yourself on the back, and be happy, like your good friend Larry Flynt (or perhaps James Carville would be more alalagous to you?). You deserve the full admiration of all my "carl-haters", and also to those who think I'm a "charity case"..........................I came to this forum with the idea of learning about audio, and sharing my experiences. Lately, I only see a bunch of 50 year old men who "can't take what they dish out" (rudeness), at least from an "up and comer"...and so they act like 5 year olds. I am not a member of your old boy network, and I refuse to take up playing golf in order to make myself feel a "part of the club". I know we understand each other...John, you truely exude "class". Happy New Year to you and yours, I know it means a lot coming from one of your "favorites".

Without a doubt, Mr. Eber, you are the most pathetic creature I've yet to run across in my years on the Internet. Guess which list of mine you made.

I feel the love from you, and I reciprocate. Also, I fail to see how I'm pathetic...and why you are allowed to personally attack, without your post being deleted. Who are you anyway, do I know you? You don't know me, so pipe down, you embarrass yourself.

Nothing but case of misdirected animosity. You people do not know a damn thing about the person you are attacking. Carl, you should ignore these insults. One more thing, you were right about Focal tweeters. Mine started "ringing", at higher volumes. But i am lucky, ACI will replace them with "Scan Speak"( 9300 i think?)
