Yeah, because that's what we strive for and that's what's important :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:"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.

I only bully people smaller than me.
I've got a sea otter in my lap. Would you consider "it" smaller than "you"?I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore -

If by sea otter you mean your personal organ, then yes.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. -
I would also consider your thread a "bully" topic. Bullies like to go around knocking into others just to get a reaction and that is what this post is about.....instigation. Almost humerous coming from someone that names themself Knucklehead. Are you by any chance related to seafire????

Something for you to consider, folks may not like a bully (although I don't see any here), but they loath a whiner.

I've never noticed any of these bullies you're speaking of Knucklehead(what an appropriate screen name). The whining that seems to be popping up in new threads every few days is getting pretty annoying though.KrazyMofo24 wrote: »Tell us how you really feel.

AAHAHAHAHA!! That's great!!
Is it really your own opinion if you just copied someone elses opinion? I think that skips beyond opinion and jumps right to plagiarism.

All I know is that this forum has taken a nice steaming pile of $hit over the last 2 months. Try something else fellas, this is getting tiresome.
If you cannot be a productive member of this forum then go somewhere else. And yes I am directing this at the newer people. If you don't like someones comments go take a walk, it a forum for freak sakes. Get over yourself.
And Doug Stanhope could not have said it better....watch below...and not work safe....you've been warned. And BTW if it offends you...well good. Because more than likely thats you he's talking about.

If we were all nicey nice with everyone showing up spouting nonsense,
it would be a pleasant, but useless place. A little conflict is good.
Within reason, of course. 90% of head-fi's posts are useless or worse.
It takes a looong time to sort out who knows what. There's a spin off
forum where they make the guys here look pretty mellow. But their
tech knowledge is A++. Asking stupid questions is fine. Giving stupid answers
isn't. And after a while you get tired of someone starting another
"cable thread". I have leaned much from reading posts of long standing
CP members, and even more from visiting some. The long time members
are fine for the most part. Do a search on anything audio, and it normally
comes back to club POLK. IS that a great speaker, or just so-so,
the answer often comes off these pages."The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." --Thomas Jefferson -

how can one be bullied on the internet? for one to be bullied means one actually has to be intimidated. do people actually lack the spine and self worth to where they allow themselves to be intimidated by someone typing on a keyboard? REALLY?
how sad is that man
best way to avoid your perceived bullies? don't go where they are. it's a big internet dude
here's my quick opinion, if your whining that your being bullied on the internet, and make posts that literally have no other purpose then to draw people out and bust your balls like a moth to a flame then you have issues, serious issues. if we were really bullies, we would follow you to continue o bully you if you went to another forum. believe me brotha, wherever you go, we aint following
I'll say it again, if this is your biggest worry maybe volunteer your time to help people that are ALOT worse off than you? it will make you feel better about yourselfLiving Room 2 Channel -

Knucklehead wrote: »Evolution of a Forum Bully
Forum bullies are typically intelligent. They begin as helpful members of the forum. But as their power grows, their true nature reveals itself. Once established, forum bullies begin mixing their helpful posts with intimidation. As they evolve, and develop a reputation, they attract followers. The followers serve as back up, often times speaking on behalf of the bully to clarify the forum bully's statements. Other times the followers are like a pack of hyenas jumping in for the kill after the bully has drawn blood.
A forum bully is school ground throwback. Remember that middle school bully with his pathetic little band of sycophantic followers? That's a forum bully. Established members of the group, who don't agree with the forum bully, usually remain quiet while the bully tears apart people just for sport and as a demonstration of power within the forum.
The other problem of a forum bully is that he/she creates an atmosphere of fear within the forum - not fear among the established members, but rather fear among those outsiders who want to participate in the forum. It is this fear that enables the forum bully to operate. A forum operates on the classic in-group/out-group dynamic. The bully's behavior is tolerated because of an understanding of this dynamic. You don't attack those within the inner circle, only those outside it.
If one of the respected members of the forum were to call the bully what he/she is, a petty, repugnant fraction of a human being, this member risks losing position within the forum. The resulting forum is a place in which comments are guarded. Politics are played. And the free flow of information is stifled. The forum bully also undermines the legitimacy of everyone else in the forum.
