To The Monitor Of This Website:

description: Just out of curiosity, and I know you most likely don't care what goes on at a competing website, -BUT, is there a personal animosity between this website and audioasylum.com? It seems I made two posts for the first time yesterday on this site with a simple but straightforward inquiry, thinking that some of the members there might also post here and could possibly have an explanation as to why they were out of commission for several days. As you can see there was no malace intended. It seems whenever I post your website over there, my posts are deleted, when I inquired as to the reason why, -now all my posts are deleted and I am apparently banned from there. I also know that you should not care how monitors of other websites behave, - but, did I step into something I didn't know about between the two of you? Perhaps I shouldn't have used the same monikar, so how can I go about changing it?

description: There was/is a dispute between Rod and Wayne that occurred several years ago I believe. This is probably why your posts were pulled on AA. I occasionally post on AA when I want to ask someone in particular a question about their design, for instance. There is a lot of knowledge there I believe, but it seems there is much name calling and "your wrong and I'm right" attitudes there that end up in personal attacks far too often anymore. So for the most part I just don't post. Occasionally you'll see an argument here on ART, but not usually personal attacks. Sometimes about interpretation of the rules, which is bound to happen every once in a while, but for the most part everyone here gets along. Except if you're in the Dungeon where people can really express their opinions on off-audio topics. That's what the Dungeon is for so you don't see it in the other forums. Although you won't see the type of multiple, quick responses to questions here on ART, you won't get a lot of the useless banter, fluff, and misdirection that can happen on AA.

description: Glad to meet old acquintances. Can you imagine, I gave references to this site when AudioAsylum was down, and I got banned without warning or reason. I haven't tested to see if I'm on yet, and I'm not sure I'll try. I always thought Ron M and Bruce from DC were good and reasonable people, not like some of the yahoos who post there, -that's the real disapointment.

description: Well, I don't know what's going on over at AA. It's a real shame. IMO the place is full on manufacturers and sock puppets. As I said, this site has much less traffic but at least the people that post here are "real" people. Hope you post from time to time. The Dungeon and the Tower here are similar to the Outside where anything goes but is much more civil. Much less name calling. In any case, glad to see you.
