    Who ever changed this format, and can read must be, of Masochism and sadism are both about the enjoyment of pain. Masochism refers to the enjoyment of experiencing pain while sadism refers to the enjoyment of inflicting pain on someone else.

    And if they would please get rid of that "Howdy Stranger" before you sign in. That would be nice! Was hoping that would go away from the last time. With the "new upgrade" this time.

    I dunno, I kinda like Howdy, Stranger!

    Maybe Howdy, L'il Pardner since some of us aren't, technically, strangers?

    To me the forum seems more like an outline than a real place. Thin and insubstantial with the various subsections not relating to each other. The signature area is emphasized over each post's main section and makes it difficult to maintain thread interest.
    Maybe if we could suggest to Polk examples of other audio related forums that are more successful?

    So, you want forum members to suggest fixes to a multi million dollar company, that presumably has a staff of people being paid to do that?

    Maybe.....we have forum members helping with customer service, to a company that has paid people doing customer service.

    What I am saying sounds like I am bitching, but that is the reality in many cases.

    ruh-roh. :neutral:

    On the other hand, it is probably very nice to be able to ignore folks for a change!
    Someone please tell @SeleniumFalcon I said that, 'k?

    I think something involving farm animals would be more inclusive and unifying

    Haven't been hanging around the forum simply because I can't stand the atrocious design.

    If that makes me sound like a whiny bitϲh, then so be it. Hate the look and layout.

    This format is horrendous on a full screen computer and I can only imagine how much worse it must be on a smartphone. Chances are quite good that I'll never venture there to find out.

    The Wikipedia entry didnt really explain why that guy's name was used to come up the term Masochism. I was expecting a story one how he would pay peons in the olden days to whip him, or something to that effect. Perhaps I missed a link?

    He had an interesting relationship with a woman who was not his wife -- chronicled (at least sort of, it's said) in a book he wrote called Venus in Furs.
