OMG!
I realize Brettw22's and others frustrations with the level we've reached at Club Polk. I never thought some of the threads and posts could reach the gutter.. but that time has arrived.
Adding tags to someone's thread is bush... seriously. If that's what gives you a hardon then you got some growing up to do.
I know we're not all going to get along with each other.. or even agree with each other all the time. That's fine. But stooping so low as to add tags to someones thread is just uncalled for.
IF the original poster of that thread wants to add his or her own tags then that's fine.. but no one should be changing them otherwise. IT may seem funny and harmless.. but it could lead to some innocent person getting ticked off or banned for no good reason.
Lets have fun on this forum again.. we don't always have to play nice.. but at least don't tag someone else's thread. Tag your own.
The other thing... about this thread or that thread only being for select people whom it concerns is BS. If you have a problem with someone take it to PM's - private messages.. don't throw it out there and start a name calling war.
*the topic of my thread is BS, and I know most can see it as that.. and I was just poking fun at the other threads started the same way.

Now, to be honest Danger Boy, I wasn't aware that the original poster was the only one who was supposed to add tags to a thread.
Not saying you're not right, but ..... are you sure about that ?
I've only added about half a dozen tags to threads since I've been here, mainly because the "Edit Tags" button never really registered with me until recently (about 6 months ago ?).
Pretty sure none of them have been destructive/cruel/insubordinant/evil; in fact, my latest tag was in the form of a disclaimer : "MBBL NOT TEABAGGERTAGGER" .
Only did that because a phantom tagger was sending tags in from the gutter and didn't want to be associated with that.
BTW: I didn't add the "Cry Me a River" tag to this thread.
UPDATE: or the "Tag This" tag.Sal Palooza -
As far as I was aware the purpose of the tags was to aid in searching for posts, and that the tags would/should be updated by anyone reading the thread so as to give a varied and useful number of keywords on which to search.
Some of the tags have been out of line since the system was first implementedSpeakers: Polk LSi15
Pre: Adcom GFP-750 with HT Bypass
Amp: Pass Labs X-150
CD/DVD Player: Classe CDP-10
Interconnects: MIT Shortgun S3 Pro XLR
Speaker cables: MIT MH-750 bi-wire

With the recent stupid post's from one individual, I think we can all figure out who it is, and needs to be gone as far as i am concerned.

It is more than a recent problem. This has been going on for at least a few months. Although some of the losers we've picked up in the last few months also need to go, along with this clown.

I believe it's Paul DiComo making the tags....he does work for DefTech now.CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

tags might be the work of the same guy trying to keep the forum in an uproar by posting nonsense on everybody's threadsThe Gear...

Good call. How long did he think he could fly under the radar?
I just know it's nota me, and it's probably nota you. And nota whole bunch of other people. -
Is there no log that tracks the addition of tags. If not, there should be.Michael

Too bad when we look at the "edit tags" section we can't see who posted what tag. Lack of anonymity has a way of keeping all but the largest douchebag somewhat civil."Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul!

If it was being utilized as it was supposed to be tags would be a good thing. Unfortunately, there are immature people on here that have to screw up a good thing.

If folks can't handle some of the funny, obnoxious, witty and key word tags, then don't read 'em. Simple as that.~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -
Hell no! That's how I find half the stuff I look for.........quickly.

I don't know who is posting names in the "Tags" on this thread, but you have crossed the line. I will find out who you are and I will do everything in my power to have you banned.Political Correctness'.........defined

That's not acceptable posting people's names.
-
If they weren't acceptable, why do we use them on the board? You're privacy concerns went out the door when you made friends here....Joe....Jesse....Steve....etc etc. Are we talking last names or what? I don't see anything out of line....that hasn't been in 50 other threads.
EDIT: OK, it was last names, sorry guys....that's cause for concern.
