You reply immediately and call me a sock puppet? No surprise, it’s what you’re doing between your immature rants. All these people you lambast built an industry many know and love. What are you doing? Sitting in your crappy little house pissing off people who will write letters to your advertisers, forwarding your posts and emails calling their customers darogatory names. So this is your plan to get ahead and make a living. Good luck. I’m retired and wealthy. I have nothing better to do for the rest of the day than to write letters to all the advertisers listed on your site. Scum needs yo pay. Time to collect. Have a nice day ASSHOLE." Dear Jeff: You have been invaded by an ancient Roman deity named Priapus! This is the source of your "enthusiasmos", a kind of divine madness by possession (something like this happened to Philip K. Dick). Priapus protects boundaries by threatening trespassers with punishments inflicted by his outsize phallus. Priapus relentlessly boasts and menaces, brandishing only his sole distinguishing feature, an exceedingly large and virile member. There is a simple cure: calm down and stop being a dick. Simple...but not easy. crenca, Indydan, The Computer Audiophile and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment

I've enjoyed every piece he's done. I suspect that's why you copied Tone's legally protected content and forwarded it under your own brand name. That makes you a thief. Also, the less than positve things you've said about Jeff are slander and they will land you in court. I'm more than happy to contribute to any fund to start legal action against CA for Theft and Slander. You're exposing yourself as a D-Bag in an industry that is fine without you. 2 hours ago, phototristan said: Point taken, although that comment is still quite a derogatory one versus one that seems to actually want to provide constructive criticism.

tmkirst Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I had not visited the TONEAudio site before I was enlightened by this forum, so obviously CA is driving readership. I was immediately struck by the varying and page-sensitive copyright dates. AudioDoctor 1 Link to comment

You get free original content from others for your site without having to really do anything. We aren’t talking about link harvesting which is generally used to describe things that web bots do.

They don't see it as "for {their} benefit" because they see themselves as independent islands and competitors. They don't want their customers (i.e. their advertisers whose equipment they sell - just as Jeff said) to get the idea that they are not a sandbox of captured eyeball/readers (even though their customers already understand this). They all imagine they are or aspire to be "the" source of Audiophile marketing. As you say clueless but it is how this industry understands themselves apparently...
