Why is it so much more civil over here on Agon?


A member on another forum site asked an honest question, check out his question and some of the responses. Is it because of the moderators here on Audiogon, or is it because the members here would not put up with it?
Was I justified in giving my response? I have no idea what the follow up response will be.

AA is a good audio forum site. I have learned alot over there. You just have to be a little careful where and when you post. "General", can get a little wild at times. There is some big name people that post on AA. I have wondered why they do not post here on Audiogon. And of course there is Sean's buddy se. I have got alot of respect for Sean. I think he really enjoys a good fight. He must, I have seen him jump right in the middle of a hornets nest..More guts than I have got.
I don't like jumping in the middle of hornet's nests, but I do get a big kick out of driving up and dousing 'em with a fire extinguisher, then driving off before they know what hit 'em.
I'm cracking up from reading these posts. It goes to show that you can have a great time without stomping on someone! Maybe we just figured that out here.

But don't rave about Bose or A/B testing ;-)
civil...you wanna see civil...lol

I think we may be worse over here.

thank God I stayed out of that one...hahaha
THAT was ONE stupid question!!!

Come on!! The guy a) didn't read his manual b) didn't really think that he could just remove the ICs c) left himself open to being grilled.

Audio Asylum is a known site for flames and criticism. If you can't handle it, don't go there. Stay here.

If you can add value and contribute, it's an incredible forum. However, just as in life, you can always ignore the ass-clowns and get some real info.
