The problem with the Ad-Hom rule on here?

I do. Find any post of mine fitting any of those descriptions.

Lurcher are you having a hissy fit.

[savvypaul]

It has been known.

Why the laughing face?

If you think DQ is rude, explain why, and explain why it bothers you.

Sorry for not making myself clear. The comment was in reference to "but at least he is creating original content about hi-fi."

Your posting about "Yes, DQ can be abrasive, curt, occasionally rude, " is spot on, and I don't think anyone would disagree with YOUR assessment.

And I said that DQ creates original content, for the forum, about hi-fi.

And, from what I can see, you don't.

So, what's the upside to your facetiousness?

[savvypaul]

but at least he is creating original content about hi-fi.

If anything, that's the bit I would question. If he was creating original content, then it would cancel any other negative over his posting style. But all I generally see is a self promoted Richard "mini me" without any of the originals whit or understanding, and I just see the repetition of dogma. But I am clearly biased and only out for my own interests.

I was taking you seriously until then.

And, from what I can see, you don't.

As you (Paul) know this is not my prime hi-fi forum, so It's never been my intention (in the main) to instigate content, so your observation is correct.

I usually enjoy what others post about, and occasionally add to topics if I feel it may be of interest, or to pass on some snippet I have learned from past experience.

I was meerly trying to prempt the response. Fundamentally I don't worry a great deal if you do or don't take me seriously. However I don't see how that alters what I said.

And you also like to have an argument with DQ and / or make sly comments about him. But you leave that bit out when you are polishing your halo.

My premise is that we can all act like 'wankers' at some time or other, especially online, where this no natural inhibitor. I am not, therefore, well disposed towards one-sided complaints.

My argument has never been with DQ per se, but merely with some of the hogwash he posts.

It's (what I perceive as) the sort of passive-aggressive remark that makes my eyes roll. Though, I'm sure I've indulged in similar.

On the rest of what you said, I don't think it is a fair overall analysis of DQ's posting, here.

Generally, I do take you seriously.

Then I don't understand your dissatisfaction with his posting style.

If it's all about the content, then address the content.
