    You said "bafoon".

    That made me giggle!

    James, you said "and after his ban (which was justified)". Is anything after that really relevant?

    Come on Russ, Didn't think I'd have to spoon feed you as well.

    Well, since the ban was either:

    A knee jerk reaction from a mod protecting his freind or banning someone unjustifiably because of a different viewpoint (and was subsequently overturned by the admin)

    OR

    a time out to get him in line and realize that this forum is full of internet bully's and how he shouldn't react to their trolling.

    Either case, the admin felt he was justified to be here, paid a price and toned down the attitude.

    BTW, weren't YOU going to be banned once and were only allowed to stay after everyone came to your side. Should we just flame and ignore you as well?

    HI: Have you debated him on a single point or are you just attacking as well? If you want to ignore him, ignore him. Don't go around trying to attack the guy. BFD...

    The thread derails? You guys trolling is a far worse issue than he is. :(
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    You don't have to spoon feed me anything slick. I know a dunderhead when I see one, so does 95% of the board. If you don't see it, I honestly don't care. I actually stood up for the clown in the beginning, oh starting around the pink noise break in thread. I was emailed and pm'd multiple times from multiple members to 'please get rid of this guy' to which my reply was 'I can't simply because I or anyone else doesn't like him - he breaks the rules, that's a different story, and he hasn't done that YET'.

    I love everyone passing judgement without knowing ALL the facts, but then again, that's par for the course around here. Again, I simply don't care.

    If you want to be his buddy, be my guest, he isn't long on friends around here so far and could probably use one.

    You want to flame me, the line starts to the left friend. The bozo list isn't long, but it's very distinguished.

    Cheers,
    Russ

    I was not aware that "being popular" was a requirement for Polk Forum Membership ?
    We must all realize this is not our forum, it belongs to Polk.
    We are all guests of Polk Audio.
    I wouldn't dare come in your house, and ask you to make a guest of yours leave.

    As a moderator, YOU should have stepped in and stopped the abuse I was taking.
    But, you allowed it to continue until I blew my top.
    Then, that gave you the "excuse" you needed to ban me.

    Kinda like going by a dog every day and teasing it.
    Then one day, w/o "doing anything", the dog shows teeth at you.
    You "innocently" say "LOOK at that mean **** Dog", neglecting to show YOUR Part in what you previously did to it.

    A Fish stinks from the head down Russman.
    IMHO You failed this forum as a Moderator because you were unable or unwilling to stand up to your friends/customers.

    Perhaps selling stuff to people here or retaining your little click of friends is more important then proper moderation of this forum ?
    WHY did you not act when people were hassling me ?

    He has no point James, he just blows BS about everything he thinks he knows, how his friends have owned everything piece of gear mentioned and that is made and how he has seen everything and knows more than anyone else. . . what's to debate? :confused:

    I'm debating his disrespect and pompousness!:D

    Ya see, a decent person after the ban was lifted would have posted up, something like, "Wow folks WE got off on the wrong foot and would have tried to be a member of the Club with a little humility. Instead he came back with an obnoxious ABX and then when he was formally allowed back on started waving his **** at Russ and Jesse and everyone else spouting how he was empowered!!! I've said some really stupid things here as has most of us. I took the chastisement and humbled myself admitted I was wrong and then joined in the discussion. This guy climbed higher on his high horse and continued to lecture and ridicule, THAT IS WHY I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THE CLOWN! That is why I have him on my ignore list. I can read others who've posted behind him and can make a pretty good guess what the clown is saying again.

    That is all.

    So, I am supposed to kiss butt and live on my knees because a moderator failed to stop his friends from flaming and disrespecting me.
    It continued until I finally lost my temper and gave him an excuse to ban me ?
    Guess what ?
    This is NOT Russ and Jesse's Forum, it belongs to Polk.
    We are all guests of Polk here.

    I am NO better then anyone here, and they are no better then me.
    Whether we have a zillion posts, or only a few, we are all the same.

    No, it is not a requirement. But being arrogant and knowing it all will make yourself rejected by other members of this family. I guess you know that already.
    We must all realize this is not our forum, it belongs to Polk.

    True. But, this forum would not be what it is without the members that have made it what it is. I won't spend time explaining you what it is. People that have been here for some time know what I mean. This is not just any internet forum. But how would you know?
    We are all guests of Polk Audio.
    I wouldn't dare come in your house, and ask you to make a guest of yours leave.

    You would not be allowed in my house
    As a moderator, YOU should have stepped in and stopped the abuse I was taking.
    No; you asked for what you got. You deserved it.
    Perhaps selling stuff to people here or retaining your little click of friends is more important then proper moderation of this forum ?

    You are so wrong; but I guess we should not expect any better from you. You know nothing. You have no right to come and judge anyone here. You have not been around enough to know what people do around here for other members of the family. You are not a member here, and will never be.


    Oh well; I guess I'm just wasting my time here.

    That is why I have him on my ignore list. I can read others who've posted behind him and can make a pretty good guess what the clown is saying again.

    Possibly the best forum feature we have, and we have a LOT of cool features. As I told a forum friend in an email 'He may actually have something interesting to say on occasion, but damned if it isn't all lost in the delivery.'

    Some guys just don't know when to stop, he keeps lobbing them up, the forum will keep knocking them out of the park. He stops acting like an ****, he'll probably stop getting treated like one. He may be a member of the board by default, but he's hardly a member of the forum. Maybe he will be one day - strangely enough the only one that can determine that is him. Not me. Not Justin. Not Matt himself.

    K - I can see you posted, but not the text - just telling you to extend the courtesy so you are not wasting your time if you are typing anything to me. I'll never see a word of it. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever.

    Cheers,
    Russ

    .

    Take responsibility for your actions clown and stop blaming everyone else for your obnoxious, pompous attitude and behavior.

    Nobody is telling you to kiss anyone's butt . . . a little humility for getting the PRIVILEGE of being a member of this fine forum would do you very well. Then maybe you will be invited to different events at other member’s homes, or maybe you will be humbled by a member’s kindness to you or maybe even asked to break bread with some really decent members and their families. It seems you are choosing the low road instead of joining OUR family.

    Polk’s forum YES!, OUR family yes!, you want to be a part of the family then join it instead of doing what you are doing!

    I did not start this crap.
    It was allowed to continue until I blew my top.
    Then I found myself banned, unable to post.
    When I was "down" the members of this fine "family" continued to put the boots to me, and so I deleted my cookies then "summoned" ABX.
    When ABX was also banned, it left me the choice to either summon another entity, or go to Polk.
    I went to Polk one time, and one time only.
    I have NOT reported any posts, nor do I intend to.
    That is not my way.

    Again, reread the thread which you "blew your top" and then revise the statement quoted above. We were having an audio discussion, and then cursing came about. 4 or 5 times, if I recall in ONE post by you. If memory serves, this was after you proclaimed that you were our "Daddy".

    Not a good way to make friends.

    Question. If we started the "crap", could you refer us to the exact post that started it please?

    Let's talk about the thread I was referring to. The one where you blew your top. Where in that thread is it where the members of this forum gave you crap? The exact post as to what led you to blow your top?

    This is the only thread I believe I talked to you in and if memory serves, I made the statement "where's the beef?" and made a comment about why fans aren't really wanted in an amplifier. After that, I was your enemy [as it seems].

    I was talking to the author of the thread, trying to be helpful in my own special way. Not you. Then, I'm on your list.

    After that.....you sir, were on mine. Do you feel the love?
