Probably a good time to review the forum rules, I just broke one (didn't realize there was a cuss clause) so shame on me. I'll re-adjust myself.

    lol...I guess I never looked there. Most of it is just common sense human interaction anyway.....except the part about brand bashing and cussing (within reason)....wasn't aware of those.

    FWIW before the management thread got closed I agree with what steveinaz posted.

    True, but the most recent post in that forum actually stands out more than the announcement. Maybe they could change the color scheme or something like that.

    Bose is not a brand, rather they are a marketing strategy, thus it is still safe to criticize them.;)

    As far as Emo goes... I will leave that to your better judegment.

    Simple rules to follow. Not too many, just the right amount, not complicated, and we all at one time or another have broken them in one form or another.

    I'm glad you posted them in a thread for all to take notice again Steve. I know I'm going to reshape my posting habits as I broken quite a few.

    I always click "new posts" when I check in and didn't realize the rules were at the beginning of each section. I looked all over the main forum page and could not find them.
