Huh?????? I've seen few forums that are moderated. Look at some of the arguments on the stereophile forums or audio circle.The Minimal moderaton on the SD forums is de facto proof that they work, it seems to me. And whose to say who is "far more knowledgeable". You? If you are God let me know, because as an agnostic I would love to get off the fence:-) Also, I dont see any bullies on the forum, just people disagreeing in many different ways which is what makes this forum interesting and entertaining for me. If this hobby and it's concommittent discussions cant have a little heat and humor it would be a bit boring. It seems to me you are labeling as bullies people with whom you disagree and whose method of communication you dont like. Again, were you appointed to that job or is it divine proclamation? I am more subjectivists than objectivist. I think it's quite plausible there are things we cant yet measure. I don't think DBT is the end all of methods to determine quality gear but I dont dismiss DBT entirely either. Why dont we all just suck it up. If someone offends you let them know. If they are rude either ignore them or be rude back . That should be OUR choice, not some single or group "moderator" Oh, and if you dont agree with me I will banish you to the 3rd brane where the flames are real.
