About users with hidden agendas


If you know that a user is a dealer and they fail to disclose and attacks other users because they make a point against their interest, do you expose the user?

I know of a gentleman here that continuously posts and goes after people and does not disclose who he is. 

What are the ethics of this forum?

I remember that. That whole thing was weird. As for hunting and drinking. I don’t drink, and I quit hunting men! Game never intrigued me. I’m a big ol softy when it comes to animals. Everyone (the animals) was a doorstep baby. Kids not so much, I give them back or pass them off to the neighbor lady.. :-)

Almarg went to heaven, I didn’t know him, BUT I read a lot of his replies. He was patient, a Gentleman and truly missed.

I don’t care for people to much, 2 hours a week with my grandson is plenty for me.
Lookin’ at the neighbor lady, I’m good for 5 minutes. Talkin’ 2. :-)

I type more than I talk. I don't like big words. BUT I like big Bu..s I cannot lie.. :-)

Regards

I like deI walers who participate. Not much difference than if I walked into their store. As long as they identify. 

Now what about individuals extolling their "products" while actively selling them on this site. Ethicall if they don't identify?

There is nothing here to prevent hidden agendas so you can be sure they are there and not hard to detect over time. It is what it is. High end audio is pretty much one big expensive hidden agenda. As long as people are respectful and factual, and not trying to take advantage of others, no problem.  Transparency is the key for longevity when interacting with others.

my question is, how can i become a paid shill? i would love to get free/heavily discounted equipment just for posting "this is it. the one. you guys gotta try it" 20x a day. my kids are still little and ive got a mortgage, most of the time i just can’t afford the stuff you guys are always on about

@styleman @nonoise Since you asked for others' opinions: I've used Nobsound, IsoAcoustics, and Townshend all three. Each one was clearly better than the last in my system and to my ears. Whether the increased cost is worth it to you I can't say. The Townshend podiums were a reach $$ for me, but they made a striking improvement in my speakers (Cain&Cain Abbys).
