OK, I'm going poll crazy. I just had to do this one because I couldn't get away with it anywhere else! (Sorry, had to put a slashdot poll joke in too--I'm just in that kind of mood).

Ah, you may have started some sh*t, but your one of us! Shocked I guess I could be on the list 'cause the digital crusade ticks me off so much. Evil or Very Mad

Yep. I find myself annoying.

darin's smart and enthusiastic. He's just can't get over the fact that some of us prefer better PQ at lesser cost. Nor can he accept the fact that forums are built on opinions.

QQQ is funny as hell. And he pops in only once a month... just enough to keep us on our toes. Like Robert Wood... read behind the keystrokes.

Kyser's a good guy in a bad position. If the bosses wanted a strict change, then I can't imagine anyone else better suited for the task.

raster made a name for himself with zero technical ability to contribute. All of us share at least 2 common obsessions... enjoying our projector(s) and enjoying our time on these forums. Most people thrived on receiving and paid it forward by contributing. He could not contribute technically so he lashed out for recognition in a manner that could only be maintained or escalated in a negative manner.

I agree Kyser is just the fall guy but whats up with that ? Alan needs to talk to us too ! We are the CRT forum ! Not Alan or kyser. Maybe in the eye's of some the CRT projector is truly dead but not to my eyes !

He he he

I voted right i guess, Darinpissartist for me, i guess by all his "too much free time" posts, hes a seller, who can't stand loosing business to people who want the best for there money.

I agree that Kysersose, has been used as a fall guy, and do think that AVS are trying to kill the CRT forum off though, probably down to all thue business that is been lost by people buying cheap CRT's off ebay for a few hundred dollars, when they could be buying a digital off AVS (or there sponsers) for a few thousand.

Thank you for not putting me in the list............

Raster - I actually enjoy most of his posts, I take them a light hearted, funnier still are the reactions he gets.........some of them have me in tears and pain for laughing.

Kysersose - hard job to do, (Im a CRT mod on 2 forums), one hand the normal posters to read, other hand rules to follow, very difficult at times, I was very lucky, one forum is very quiet, the other most people know me and so fairly easy to run, always difficult when you HAVE to delete/close or step into a thread......AND all for FREE............

Darin - Well I dont bother to read anything he writes anymore........takes too long and I really dont have that time available......Im sure there is good stuff there BUT I cant stand reading all the fighting......recently I have noticed that he has changed and no longer seems to attack people, so thats better - or maybe I just dont read his posts anymore......

All I can say is that were only two individuals that were on my ignore list.

1) Raster
2) DarinPeed2

I tried to put Kysersose but got a message that you cannot ignore moderators. Evil or Very Mad

I've met Darin. He's actually a really nice guy, a software engineer I think. Very firmly entrenched in the digital area of course, but knows what he's talking about from a digital point.\

Frankly too many people have their panties in a bunch. the only panty in a bunch I want to see is from Pete's avatars right before they climb into my bed.

and DAMMIT that has not happened yet. No wonder we're pissed!

Sorry Pete, I didn't make it multiple choice!

Actually - Raster is the only one who (IMO) crossed the line with me. After having the twit call me a child molester (for using a picture of my daughter as an avatar) - I went off.

If I had gotten my hands on him - the raster problem would have been solved.

Darin - just annoyed the hell out me with the same argument over and over and over. Every now and then I would get something from his post - but way too much effort wading through the digital propaganda.



Curt - can not help with models and their panties.... Smile

I agree with Curt. There's really no reason to take anything someone says on a hobby forum too seriously. For the most part, I think many of you guys are awfully thin skinned. None of these guys on the list bother me in the least.

Of course, none of them has called me a child molester either, so I can understand where Pete's coming from.

Yep, my problem with rASSter was that he/she/it never contributed a positive thing, and the negatives that he/she/it contributed were causing long-time members (with lots of experience and information to contribute) to not to frequent the forum any longer.

Rasster's the only person I've ever been sideways with on AVS. I don't even remember which stupid thing it was about, but he's been on my ignore list ever since. Of course, I still have to click once in awhile to see what ridiculous advice he's giving. He used to be like a car accident that I couldn't look away from. MOre recently, he's toned down considerably and is almost, dare I say - boring. Maybe he got laid for the first time.
