Why you need a low pass filter when using a splatter box amplifier

[StrangeBrew]

If these threads are going to go away stopping the Rabbi is only half the problem, everyone else needs to resist the urge to join the dogpile.

The rabbi trolls because people engage him and the admin allows it.

A certain cb tech gets bent out of shape and threads get locked. Meanwhile his cheerleader runs around keeping the shit stirred up everywhere else.

This forum could have intelligent threads about what cb shops are doing and the claims the make. The problem starts when you have someone with an agenda that turns every topic into pissing match or a moron who can't stand it if someone disagrees with what his mentor says.

If this kind of activity is not appreciated by the administration there is a solution. Locking threads and deleting posts may be empowering but it's only treating the symptom.

Very true and like I said.....new year and new me. Like it or not.

From what I can see and perceive they stay civil when he isn't posting in them.
That's when it turns south.

 

[StrangeBrew]

It's easy to stay civil when everyone has the same target.

 

[Martian]

It's still easy to stay civil even if you have an opposing viewpoint.
It goes south when the strawman arguments come out, dragging others in, and so on.
Most people here - especially the technical people tend to follow the scientific method.

The observations of one person tend to become fact when the conditions of the observation are not documented, intentionally obscured, or falsified.

And that rubs technical people like scientists, engineers, or enthusiasts the wrong way because humanity did not advance this far by allowing individuals to make a mockery of things.

We only have 362 days left.

Maybe we could have an official off topic thread to keep it in one place. That way the end of useful threads stay intact.

 

[Martian]

That could work for a time but people like an audience... it's still going to bleed over.

 

[StrangeBrew]

Big question here is what is more important to you, do you want a solution or do you want to be proven right.

If you want these pissing matches to go away then stop participating in them.

If you want to be right then continue arguing with the Rabbi just as you have been all along, just don't expect a different result from the one you've been getting.

 

[Martian]

You cannot have meaningful conversations with a shill or a troll.
Getting into the pissing match? Guilty as charged.
*I* know I will not get a different result. This is why I don't engage half as much as I used to. In fact I personally think that goes for most people here, but I can't speak for them.

Is it wrong to point out that it's really one person that tanks these kinds of threads?
I think the rest of us are adult enough to have the discussion.

But, that's up to the moderators what we can and cannot discuss, too.

It is not so much WHAT you can discuss as it is HOW you discuss it. Now since this thread is SOOOOOOOOO far of topic at this point..........
