    ... not getting the reaction you seek and now you are trying to light the match. The best move you could make at this point is to walk away form this **** of a thread and move on. Your attempt to incite some sort of flame war has failed.

    Very well put John:)
    I still wonder how old the OP is?
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Cpyder thanks for responding with your age. I will continue to show leniency. As you grow older you most likely will become board with threads like this.
    Take care kids, and get your learn on.

    tell me, do you still ride the short bus to school:confused:

    Why, you have some kind of issue with people who take a mini-bus to school or something?
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    nothing wrong with the short bus. They get better gas mileage and take less effort to park in tight spots.;)

    If he is, he just got an education on how to avoid the kind of B.S. he was trying to start. The folks at the other forum will be shocked that we did not go on the offensive.;) I am proud of the fact that none of us got sucked into the **** stew he was cooking.

    Well Cpyder. What did you learn?

    You can see this video on U Tube I think. It may answer all your questions.

    Blue Eyes - Brown Eyes

    or This forum - That forum

    Description:

    Almost 40 years ago, the day after Martin Luther King, Jr. was killed, a teacher in a small town in Iowa tried a daring classroom experiment. She decided to treat children with blue eyes as superior to children with brown eyes. "A Class Divided" is a video that shows what those children learned about discrimination and how it still affects them today, showing a reunion of that third grade class.

    I've seen that experiment in a psych elective course. Really interesting!

    You'll see I've been completely honorable during this. I never bashed either AH or CP. I haven't taken sides, or said anything back to the people who flamed me. Not here to make enemies either.

    I've taken a class in school where the students were 50/50 white-black and we discussed the topic slavery and its effects on African American religion. Yes, it had the potential to be a very touchy topic, but it was discussed very academically. That's all I meant to do here. I request that if you cannot be academic in this discussion, please do not post.

    Whenever I say anything about Audioholics in another thread, someone replies with very demeaning post back. I just wanted to understand why.
    Learn that CP is a family and all good family usually don't like anyone taking gossip from the neighboord to their home. Let it go for your own good, friendly advice ;)
    So Cpyder you should naught and figure on things as the agenda is transparent but your issue is brick-walled here.

    RT1
    Key word in bold and underlined, simply let it go for your own good ;) as if you persist, you'll be awfully surprised where your thread will lead you :eek: (in a short time here I've seen quite a few example of threads like this). Friendly advice, let it go ;)
    Cpyder wrote: »
    What I'm gathering is that I came to the wrong place to discuss touchy topics. There really is no agenda. I promise. I've probably posted 5 times on AH's forums.

    I apologize to anyone who is offended.
    You came to a place where you can ask questions about your "spearker", amps and other audio needs/addictions. Once you get known, respected, trusted, you may then dare stir the pot, how's that sound? ;)
    Cpyder wrote: »
    That's why I'm in the clubhouse. Open discussion on any topic right? Not just audio. I'm not trying to get people to say anything bad about AH. Hell I'll say something bad - I hate how AH always says like 400 people are viewing a certain topic (like loudspeakers) yet there are 3 posts in one day. That math doesn't add up. Smells kind of fishy. I'm calling it a lie!
    Why the gossips? Do you think it will lead you anywhere positive? ;)
    Cpyder wrote: »
    Why can you not understand that I'm not picking a fight?! And my "complaint" was comical - it was supposed to be funny. Stop taking everything so seriously. Please just step back and view this topic from a distance. Leave the swords and shields behind. If I was trying to start a flame war, I'd have said something resembling an attack by now. But I haven't. Instead I've tried to tread very lightly, clearly not taking sides, and apologizing to anyone who was offended.
    Why can't you understand the topic isn't welcomed, can't you step back and view from a distance what the topic is doing to your life spand on this forum :eek: (no threath, simply another friendly advice ;) )

    Cypder, not sure if there was any sinister intent or not on your part by posting this thread, but you asked for it. Think you might get a reprieve being a "newb" by not responding and letting this topic DIE.
