Back off

Wow, you guys are a treat, nothing like attacking the messenger. This is a fine example of what I would like to see stop, and I think almost all of you are represented. Bravo!

It's called having a sense of humor. The actual point of this thread was over 30 posts ago. You made your point, others made theirs. Free speech is a good thing. But now its time to move on to actually helping users in the community with potentially solvable problems rather than continuing to debate how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

This post is informative...

4 years is a long time to lurk amongst the community. Not that I have anything against lurking (I do it myself on a small number of other forums) - but then again I wouldn't dream of then joining them JUST to tell them how they should be run.

Maybe "Nazgul" is a new name for an old friend :-)

I thought I was on your ignore list? And again Phil, this is not your forum and it's not a private forum, it's a public forum for a consumer product. You are not "them". "Them" is all of the old users and the new users who deserve to be able to say what they'd like about the product they bought without being told to pipe down.

I guess the thread will die when people stop discussing it, not when your personal threshold is reached. Again, not-your-forum. There was an entire page posted since my last reply, most of it attacking me personally. So who's the troll?

Thank you..........Nazgul

All you said needed to be said.

Glad we could help you with your Squeezebox related problem.

The Backoff problem you are having was posted as a bug. I understand it will get all the attention it deserves.

Really?

The "senior members" being accused of bad behavior have hundreds of posts helping complete strangers resolve issues with their squeezeboxes (with quite a success rate it appears). Nazgul doesn't have a single post assisting another user; it appears that 100% of his posts have been merely to complain. A community thrives on the former and shrivels and dies on the latter. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I rest my case.

You're a genius if you completely remove what I've been saying from the context in which it was delivered. And I would bet there are some folks here that would argue that I have done more of a service to this forum than a boatload of technical posts. It's also interesting that most of you annoying silencers have outed yourselves, given examples, and proven my point all in the name of attacking this issue. Thank you for that.
