Polite Rules for discussing Audio related things

Elizabeth, almost 70? here I was thinking you were just a very well informed youngster - maybe 40ish or so...lol.
From what I’ve read on your posts, you have some wonderful audio gear...enjoy the ride.....Jim

sejodiren,

This is about the moment you'd better stop responding. Otherwise, you get sucked into purposeless arguments and end up wondering what is wrong with all of us. Maybe try a different thread or take a walk outside? I promise you, you will lose nothing.

At 67, I guess I’m an official member of the Old-Timers Audio Club.

Since most of us don’t want this site to be monitored to the point of having every disagreement, personal opinion or questionable remark censored, we should all try being a little bit like adults....Well, except for Geoff, maybe...Jim

>>>>>Gosh, I can’t wait until I’m an old timer, too...Geoff

Sorry Geoff, I am pretty sure your mind will always be that of a mischievous but bored 17 year old.

I have largely stopped reading the forums for many of the reasons people have noted.  I happened on to this one from Audiogon's weekly feed.  I will however ask a question about audio every now and then if I do not know the answer and often get excellent responses.  
What I find  annoying about the forums is that many posters promote the equipment they own over and over again simply because they own it and enjoy it. There are some posters who do this for years on end. This is often accompanied by deriding another brand.  Magico is great and Vandersteen stinks!! Then the inevitable reply: Vandersteen is great  and Magico stinks!! 
It is so boring. If you are that insecure that you have to deride the choices of others to feel good about yourself, then stay off the keyboard. There really isn't this kind of debate in enthusiast automobile sites.  People can seem to agree that Porsches and Benzes are both good.
