Sorry, it was too easy. At least no one said anything nasty about the sheep. That poster makes a lot of sense though if you consider the % of Kiwis now living in Australia.
How's AudioEnz forum going these days? I didn't get on at all with the bloke running it. Stuck up I thought. |

| Easy ? Don't get me started. I quite enjoy AudioEnz, which I discovered while I was living in Germany oddly enough, it is pretty non confrontational which makes a nice change. Some of the guys I know in Germany who build Hi Fi gear won't go near most forums because of the attitude of a lot of posters. Hopefully this place will stay reasonably sensible as well. |

So did I enjoy AudioEnz until the guy who runs the forum became confrontational and abusive and that wasn't just with me.
for those of you curious about what we're talking about here's the link :-http://www.audioenz.co.nz/forums/ |

| The problem is I guess the bigger a forum becomes the harder they are to control and the more chance of personality clashes, personally I tend to keep out of things as I'm not a confrontational type of person, especially with people I don't know on a forum. |

Me too, well I try. However, I resented being emailed by the moderator ( the only one and the bod who 'owns' the forum) telling me to 'get off my hobby horse' every time I mentioned the importance of room acoustics. Not to worry, I've found other places such as this one that are moderated by saner people and hardly ever get infected by flame wars.
Being a Kiwi you'll probably understand that our down under sense of humor is often taken as being impolite to say the least so I have to think twice before I press the 'send' button. Sometimes I do forget myself though.

| It's all calm at the moment  I won't post on forums that are to confrontational, there's enough of that in daily life and I don't need it when I want to relax and have chat with like minded people. I too think twice before pushing send. |

| Nor me, no point, as you say there is enough stesses and pressures to deal with in the real world, no need to carry out over in to the virtual world, but some for some illogical reason seem to get a kick out of it and come back for more  |

| Maybe if we stay friendly here and ignore any trolls that turn up things may just stay pleasant . |
