RE: I think the thread title is quite apt


"How about a Mature Adults Only Zone?"

"A number of individuals are just too immature when it comes to dealing..."

It IS comments like this that rub people up the wrong way, like it does me a bit.


I'm sorry if it may rub some people the wrong way. But that's the way I see it.

I see some people getting terribly upset over things that I can't see any mature, reasonable person getting upset about.

Take this comment by Todd B for example:

Consequently, we have the zealots demeaning, deriding, and insulting the apostates who dare not to convert to the zealot's world view in every aspect of life, even if that aspect is just to discuss subjective experiences with audio tweaks on an internet forum...

I replied asking if he could point to any recent example of that happening recently on this forum.

No response from Todd B. And neither benie nor carcass93 could point to any example.

Clearly Todd B is quite upset. But about what exactly?

Not that you may necessarily be calling me immature, but you do lower the tone in this place whenever you appear.

I don't see that I lower the tone here. I do see the tone get lowered by those who make things personal.

Just look at the last two threads by Curl. They didn't have anything to do with tweaks or DIY, or even anything about audio. It was nothing but a bunch of whining about me. And not about anything going on here, but on some other forum.

What exactly does that do but lower the tone here?

Or the ground tweak pt II thread.

I hadn't even posted anything in that thread, yet rickmcinnis called me out with a post titled "I wish Mr. Eddy would define what a TWEAK is?" which devolved into my being taken to task over the cables that I make.

What did that do to raise the tone in here?

You want to say that that comment was called for and a valid response another post?

Yes, I do. And I just gave you three good examples of why.
