Actually, that makes sense to me - but have it that the the OP be able to set a clearly marked switch, per thread, which says that overly 'objectivist' posts are not acceptable. Not part of the post, but a setting per thread - no emotion is then attached to stating the intent. And allow that setting to be altered, by Chris and the OP, at any time.

 

 

I agree and made a similar suggestion a number of hours ago.

 There is nothing wrong with that rule.

 The problem is that a few members refuse to abide by it.

 

If the OP isn't willing to enforce discipline on their own thread and Chris doesn't have time, then perhaps it's time for Chris to appoint some moderators.

We’ve tried this for years but it doesn’t work. People can’t help themselves. 

 

 

Really? When?

 

I don't remember ever seeing threads flagged in this way.

You've proposed absolutely zero solutions that will help people enjoy this site more and enjoy their HiFi more. 

 

Not surprised since you've shot down every alternative to your draconian solution that's been presented today...

What's draconian about this solution?

 

If you don't like draconian substitute "insulting" or "biased"...

Heck if I know, you brought him up in your post above, not me.

 

That seemed to be an evidence-based post. Alex does appear to be at the center of the vast majority of the unpleasantness on this forum. Not saying he always starts it but he always seems to in there stirring up the shit.

Rather than other adjectives can you offer an explanation of what’s draconian? Splitting discussions between two groups?

 

You are not splitting discussions between two groups.

 

You are carving off posts from one group into a sub-forum to make the other group happy.

 

If you wanted to do this in a fair and unbiased way, there should be two identical sub-forums: one for objective only threads and another for subjective only threads.

I thought this sub-forum was supposed to be an Alex-free zone.

Well, a majority of the forum seems to be cheering the new ghetto you created, so you should feel good about what you accomplished.

 

Yes, nothing like a common enemy to unite a community.
