I don't believe I have.

 

That is certainly open to debate, but...

 

Sorry for the digression.

 

Me, too (for mine, not yours). :)

mayhem13,

 

Thank you for clearly showing everyone the problems trolls can cause, with another one of your ugly rants !

 

:)

 

does mayhem get treated worse because of his moniker or does he behave worse because he has to live up to his moniker, I think we should conduct a double blind moniker test to find out.

No, it's a valid topic. That said, the combinations of gear is endless making it impossible. If people hear a difference, or think they hear a difference that is all that really matters.

No. It'll run straight off the rails when people indirectly start manipulating moderators in suggesting it'll run straight off the rails.

 

Hi JPrince - you never did answer the moderator on why you are here, did you? Your posts do seem to be targeted at JRiver with an acerbic tone. Is attacking JRiver why you are here?

 

Also, I am not trying to direct the moderator to any point of view. If you are around here long enough, you will realize that the moderator has a very good mind of his own and clearly evaluates issues based upon facts he gathers, many of which we are not privy to. In short, he doesn't need me or anyone else to point out when someone is going "off the rails."

 

My comment was directed to people who are essentially friends, most of whom I just have not gotten the opportunity to meet yet.

I wonder if the first two letters of his user name have any significance?

That's true, he doesn't. But, I'm sure that your intentions were good and that your motives were pure. :)

 

A subtle suggestion to JPrince that he pay attention to Chris C.'s "hint" rather than question it is also not a bad idea.

Naw - I was talking to all of us. I rather enjoy this conversation and don't want to see it sidetracked into a flame fest.

 

We really do need a forum area called "Blazes" - then we can tell each other to go to Blazes and mean it. :)

I don't care what the product is, CA isn't the place for your comments.

 

You can complain about products in a professional fashion, but your statement leads me to believe you're only here for another purpose. Because of that you are now banned.

I guess there are some people who just can't or won't take a hint.
