| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception geo,Dude get a clue. A shill acts in a deceitful way screwing the unsuspecting buyer through a con. This has nothing to do with your question. I presume your’s is an act. | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception it's particularly difficult in this world where businesses can do stuff like purchase Facebook "likes". Or purchase your stock of shills by selling them gear at huge discounts. | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception Pretty remarkable; you could be my twin brother. I must confess though I actually enjoy a challenging political discourse but it must be with an intelligent counterparty. | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception His deleted post above..... and those things too would be nice. | |
| What are the best subwoofers to use with Magnepan 20.1s? Well the good news is you have the best crossover on the planet made by Nelson to fit right in with your pre and amp the XRV-1. Start with that and also I have heard the newest version of the JL's and their DARO room eq is supposed to be the cats ... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception jmc, I was curious about your thoughts???? | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception I suggest that you take your talents to Washington DC then, as there is a rigged system, full of corruption that could use some fixing too. Sounds like "Mr. Smith goes to Audio Forums." Maybe I will make a movie. | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception mapman,I do not argue for a regulation of existing forums. I get that forum owners are of various ilk and some are going to behave as they see fit often out of ignorance as to sound business practices (to their own detriment). I frankly could care... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception wcc,I feel your pain. What I fail to understand is the argument that says "well that's just the way the system works." First, that is simply not true; that's the way the rigged system works and that is the position championed hardest by those that... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception Peter (pdnaudio),Please let me be very clear, if you read my OP carefully I am absolutely not impugning reputable dealers, manufacturers and/or others whom make a living from our hobby. These people play a very important role on forums. They discl... | |

| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception mapman13,321 posts05-24-2016 8:26amHow about a spin free zone here like that nice unbiased O’Reilly guy does? But what I propose is a program run by its Non-Shill members, not a central authority with their own agenda. In the case I refer the Owne... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception jmc, You raise the heart of the issue: the profit motive and human nature. I am a big fan of the profit motive generally driving the best outcomes for society, but I do prefer a modicum of ethical behavior. I don’t consider my pursuit of a "Shill ... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception Hew, Ya but I am not aware of one that is exclusively committed to the hobbyist. Like I said above, the problem is not when a dealer is forthright and willing to engage in reasonable discussion; it is the few that employee subterfuge and shills to... | |
