OK, now that Arny seems to have learned that best approach in a UK
newsgroup
is *not* to try and batter retired MDs in their 50's around the head
with a
'figurative baseball bat', I would be the first to say he's probably
the
best person here to advise on PC Audio matters (bar none) and will, no
doubt, set you straight.
As the Kroobeast is prone to say, that's an opinion you get to have.
Regardless of which newsgroups a thread might inhabit, Krooger is a
compulsive liar. As soon as somebody offers the slightest disagreement
with anything he has posted, you can forget about the thread offering
further useful information. It will degenerate quickly into one of
Krooger's infamous "never admit error" last stands against logic.
There are a multitude of examples of this scenario littering the
Usenet archive.
So if you, or anybody, thinks Krooger has offered useful information,
my advice is to retain what you believe is useful, and not to correct
his omissions, misstatements, or deceptions. It's not worth it.
And your reply offered what valueable assistance to the OP?
I don't know the personalities here that well, but Arny's response seemed
logical and reasoned - he may not be right by your standards, but his
opinion - which was invited - was valid. I'd've respected a well-reasoned
counter-point, but an OT slagging just makes you look like a cock.
I respect Mr. Krueger for his technical abilities and contributions to the
technical groups. I've even defended him on occasion. But over in
rec.audio.opinion, he's a different guy. Takes delight in tweaking some of
the people there, including Middius, and it's true he sometimes just won't
let something go. Like I said, he obviously just enjoys tweaking these
people. It can be humorous but it just goes on and on.
I quit RAO due to all the ad hominum attacks.

My problem is that I go back to the days when RAO was a really pretty good
audio forum. That was before idiots like Zipser and Derrida started working
overtime to ruin the place for people with a serious audio interest. I think
that Middius was brought into the frey by Zippy.
Like I said, he obviously just enjoys tweaking these people.
And, I do it early and often. At one point there was a thread with well over
a thousand posts in just a few days, by them whining about how badly I
nailed them.
It can be humorous but it just goes on and on.
The average IQ of RAO participants really dropped after Middius got
involved.
I quit RAO due to all the ad hominum attacks.
I've always repected you Mark, and your judgements about RAO just make me
respect you more.

Better not let your other hero, the estimable Fecklebeans, hear you
glorifying "tweaking". You'll get thrown out of the Morons' Club.

I can only guess what you mean by "ad hominum". You've already shown
you love to distort language beyond recognition (using "tweaking" for
"lying"). Does it have anything to do with your mother?

What I meant by "tweaking" was that he loves to provoke you guys.
I'd be surprised if you really don't know the common usage of "ad hominum"
(it's used all the time in these groups) but just in case, it's Latin for
"to the man" which means, obviously, a personal attack.

That is not Krooger's motivation.

Middius reads minds as part of his general omniscience.

You're being dumb on so many levels that I'll just observe I've
corrected your lame top-posted response, and leave you to ponder your
own MVP error average.

Please reply with evidence of the last time you ever fixed a broken piece of
electronic equipment, other than just dumb luck, and/or the last time you
actually helped someone having a technical problem, other than just dumb
luck.
Have you any technical qualifications at all? If so, then why do we never
see any evidence of same?
BTW I prefer top-posting. **** off if you don't like it.

Top-posted. Waah.
I got curious and Googled the terms "Thanks Arny", "Thanks Mark", Thanks
"Middius".
The large majority of pertinent results were positive "thank you's" for Arny
and myself for actually helping people with their problems. I dare say the
same was not true for Mr. Middius.
I'll wait for the usual vulgar attack from him, then probably just killfile
him (again). Not worth raising my blood pressure even one point.
