Us: hobbyists vs perfectionists vs aural epicureans vs rampant consumers vs bad Buddhists?

I tell people all the time that there are no thought police. Are they lurking here? Am I wrong? Do I have to start thinking pure, grade A Buddhist thoughts--no longer craving for my system to be other than it is? After all, everything is perfect just the way it is (and there's tremendous room for improvement, I've heard.) Perhaps if I can learn to accommodate this paradox, my speakers' bass will become tighter.
 

In all my years here I don’t remember anyone else requesting that another member be "banned".

Recently, there has been an epidemics of it. In, now defunct, rap threads people were going gung-ho on millercarbon. For the record, I was against it and somehow tried to defend his thoughts despite them being different from mine.

Even more recently, in millercarbon’s own thread, he suggested my (?!!!) removal. In other threads, he bragged about people being removed.

"...This member deserves to be banned for life from all things audio. He has nothing to contribute but hate. He is the antithesis of what we are doing here..."

I was fortunate enough to be able to purchase a vast amount of gear and speakers and kept all the good ones so anytime i want to upgrade i just hook up another pair of speakers or hook up an alternative system. So when the urge occurs i am lucky to be able to fill that need right away.

I like sometimes to listen sound which dont come from my speakers...

And i like to think of some thoughts which dont come from my brain....

I think i am a perfectionist who let perfection down, and a buddhist converted to christianity by a reincarnated ego...

I think only one sound exist, it is from a gong which no hammer has touched yet....Or perhaps the sound is not in the same universe than my own ears....

I think i am an epicurean who like to fast and a consumer who rejoice to buy no more....

I am a riddle who read itself loud.....

The only person i wanted to be banned of this universe is myself, but by myself....

Like hands erasing themselves and drawing themselves at the same times....

What is more real than an illusion?
