Banned in Audiogon?


I have experienced that certain manufacturers are "Protected" 
in this forum. Curious if other regulars have the same opinion?
Let's see how far this goes before it is gone.

I think that the OP is correct. About ten years ago, I purchased an Adona equipment rack which I have praised on these forums and recommended many times since. Shortly after I bought it, I wrote a review here that was not very long, maybe four paragraphs giving my positive impressions of the rack. The only negative thing that I said, which I still stand by, was that it did not come with any assembly instructions, and could have been packed a little better.
The review disappeared, and I received an email from the moderators saying that it didn't meet the standard of being informative, which was of course not true. It was so ridiculous at the time that I felt certain, and still do, that the principal at Adona complained to Audiogon and they removed the review for that one minor complaint.
   
I'm sure they are the one's that did complain about the review, who else would. I found when I first started posting here on AG there were a LOT of posters that thought the report button was to get a rise out of who ever they could.. AFTER a lot of complaining A LOT, MY FRIEND, It stopped.

The moderator LOOK now more so than they did before, OR they modified the auto flag and remove feature.. NO matter the reason AG responded to the AG community and took care of most of the abuse.

So glad to see the "I don't like what you posted" crowd GONE. They would BRAG how they just got booted on another forum just to show up hear and stir some $hit.. Just use to amaze me.. I spoke with the moderator. They took it under advisement, and told me so...

About 3 months, the toilet finally FLUSHED... Away went the BIG OL TURDS...Worthless.. 

A guy would start a thread, the FOUR would show up.. A whole page of going back and fourth. Not adding a penny's worth to the conversation..

Just like this very post that you read to the very end... DUMMY.. :-)
I'm really fellin' Red Fox lately...

I would be curious to know how many of us on Audiogon are dealers.  Be nice to know who they are so we can detect bias and perhaps salesmanship.  However, I have learned a lot.
