I block the obvious trolls like people signing up to just tell us how wrong we are. And the usual idiot showing up in one tread to defend a favorite product .It seems we regularly fall out over trivialities, yet as a rule we are bonded here for the obvious.
I find it sad that on occasion I have bowed out of discussions with people because I have a very low trigger for yabbadadda ongoing debates even when previously I had enjoyed some members' (now blocked) contributions. Sure those were pig-headed (our community invites that) and while I thought mine were not, we all snap at some point.
But all in all I think we are here to advance the same notion (90%-ile which is better than the 80/20 rule) so the bipolar antagonism is self-defeating.
Should we have an ASR universally accepted safe word before going nuclear on each other which seems utterly self-defeating to me given we are trying to advance the notion of measurement-aware preference in audio?
PS: as an attempt to overcome this i'll unblock the very few people (<5) I blocked in the past except the jerk that called my Dad a Nazi whom I wish painful slow death.
Not everyone can combine a call for de-escalation and netiquette with a wish for an agonizing death. Congratulationsas an attempt to overcome this i'll unblock the very few people (<5) I blocked in the past except the jerk that called my Dad a Nazi whom I wish painful slow death.
I chose that photo for a reason.I'm more offended by the AQ cables![]()

How about just nuclear?
FTC thread could have done with this... which I bowed out of towards the start, as it simply became circular and a waste of precious time. I made my points clear...

Topics often meander around. It's been that way since USENET rec.audio back in the 80s.People get rude down here from time to time, but i think the admnis do already a lot to avoid that. It's way worse on other fora. But stepping out of discussions or ignoring people is what can help you. I don't ignore people as far as i know, but i did also stepped out discussions for that rudeness. Real flamewars like on many other sites i haven't seen here yet (luckely)
People often also ignore the original question of statement and start to push their id's without regarding if they are relevant of the discussion or the question of the OP, and i think that is way more annoying than a big mouth here and there. But within the rules of the site, it's a free speech discussion here, and if they violate the rules, you should in first place notify and admin.
Oooooh...Nah, it's not a forum thing... it's a sexual thing, whereby @pablolie suggested we apply the concept to the forum when discussions start to go awry.![]()
