Talk but not walk?

Your hunch is correct Geoff. We (MG, I and the other TuneLand members) have no desire for angry stalkers showing up on our front porches as has been implied on this thread. There are no secrets here just the OP.

jf47t,

So you are telling us you use a different screen name on Tuneland?

Ok.

Can you link to a thread in which you actually participate?

The "angry stalkers" bit is an obvious excuse. Nobody is "showing up at your door."  Personally, this thread is the only one I’ve interacted with MG in, despite that he’s started and participated in other Agon threads. And I’ve no interest in interacting with him even in other Agon threads, much less his own forum where he wouldn’t allow people he calls "angry trolls" in the first place. Notice that you specifically keep linking to your Tuneland thread IN the very thread you call filled with angry trolls...but none of those so-called "trolls" are showing up to try and barge in Tuneland threads? We don’t care to.  Because...we aren’t in fact angry at all, despite your paranoia. Absolutely nothing in this thread has angered me at all. I can’t imagine what MG or you could actually say that would be worth getting angry about. You mistake skepticism about some of your claims for anger - that’s your own paranoia talking, not reality. I have in fact wished Michael well, and success, more than once in this very thread. In fact, here I go again:  I wish Michael nothing but success in his life and business.  I'm sure he is a really nice guy to hang around.  And some of his products are intriguing - as I've said numerous times, I'd enjoy hearing his tuned speakers in a tuned room.    I’m just pointing out some sub-par forum behavior when I see it, and simply asking questions, and pointing out they aren’t being answered. I wouldn’t have had to keep pointing this out, if you/Michael didn’t keep suggesting they have been answered....when they have not.  In no way do I have to hate someone, or be "angry" in order to to notice they may be doing great stuff somewhere else...but are behaving problematically in at least one thread.


On the tuneland thread that you relentlessly link to, there are posts by only one other member other than MG. And having encountered that same poster before (who uses the same screen name elsewhere) it’s obviously not you. So why haven’t you participated in the very Tuneland thread you want to keep showing us, and that you are obviously monitoring?


And if you participate in Tuneland...why are you suddenly acting so shy and secretive, when you have continually wanted to promote it for people to check out?


Michael G has no problem linking to his threads there. Grannyring doesn’t seem to have any problem telling us about his post there. And you certainly aren’t shy about people seeing your posts here! What would be the difference in seeing any of your posts in the Tuneland forum you want everyone to visit???? So...how about pointing to anywhere you’ve participated in Tuneland.


After all, you don’t want to leave the impression here that you just poofed into existence in this one lone thread....do you? ;-)

Not biting prof read the OP. And yes you have not only been asked to calm down by other posters but have also had several of your posts deleted by the mods for being "abusive toward other members". Sorry prof but again this thread gave you the opportunity to be real and you made another choice.

Of course you aren’t biting.


If you wish to leave the audience speculating as to why not....your choice.


You probably won’t take my advice...but perhaps re-visit this thread some day and consider what you may have done better. My first post...and many afterward, were sincere attempts to simply help you not shoot yourself in the foot. I’m sorry you are so primed to see anyone not immediately embracing everything you say as "trolls" but that only exacerbates the problem.

Again..not angry at all. But I’m certainly puzzled why any manufacturer would behave as you have here. It just seems so unnecessary.

And even though your actions puzzle me, I still very honestly wish you success. I’m happy for any success you have, and for any "Tuner" who enjoys "The Hobby."

jf47t,

You may want to pass on the last section of that post to MG in case he missed it.  It's probably my last post directed to him :)

And btw, my interest in Tuneland doesn’t go beyond being utterly bombarded by links to it in this thread. We kept getting invited; so we looked. I wish the Tuneland forum success, but I don’t have any interest in visiting it again. I’m glad it serves other folks, but I didn’t see anything that would compel me to stick around there. (Though again, if there were an MG tuned room/tuned speaker set up at a show I’d certainly enjoy hearing it. I don’t doubt something interesting may be going on).


I hope MG’s other Agon threads are more successful than this one.

Cheers,
