Parrot,

That polital comment is just in fun. I took a shot a both side! It's neutral! I don't think anybody is going to take offence at it. I am certainly not going to post any political opinions here. This is not the place for it!

Al K.

I know, just wanted to nip it in the bud. You know the way Allan gets.

Several weeks ago I was banned after just 20 mins over at DailyKos--seems you can't disagree with the general mindset there. I was totally civil too, unlike more than half of their posters, who say f*** more often than Jack Nicholson did in "The Last Detail."

I appreceiate your advice. I figure it's part of learning what goes on this particular forum and what doesn't. I could always edit that post to make it even more neutral if anybody objects, but I don't think it's going bother anybody.

Pen man,

If you have any questions about the network I will be happy to help. Just don't cut corners on the parts qulaity. That's important!

Hey, I've been on RedState and FreeRepublic for years and they've never banned me!

You get banned from sites like RedState or DailyKos for being a troll, not for stating opinions in a respectful manner. No surprise that you were banned from DailyKos!!!
 
I certainly didn't show them respect. How could anyone?

Al, there's no problem with your post at all. I just wanted to tell you in advance so you wouldn't be sent to the cornfield.
 
Al,
Sorry if I'm being nosy, but I really don't understand 90% of what happened.
I was just curious if you'd ever worked with/talked to any of our other engineers besides the one you are upset with?
 
Guys, please take the discussion to PM. There's no need to air dirty laundry here, and make the past problems there into current problems here.

Thanks.
 
Kamakiri--
You mean you'll allow Al to air his dirty laundry with that lengthy slam on our company followed by 7 pages of people agreeing with him and possibly slamming further, and yet won't let me make a couple public posts to try to clear up what the exact problem is? I don't understand.

But I'll respect your wishes.

Amy,

I think he is simply trying to put a stop to it. I think you would be doing the same thing.

BTW: I really didn't expect all this. I didn't even think I would be known here! I joind the Altec / JBL group a while back and nobody knew me from Adam!

I'm sure I would...that's why I can respect it. I just think it would be nice to allow both sides of the story before shutting it down, or deleting both.

Al is right. We don't want any site's dirty laundry. In fact, when this comes to whatever conclusion that the two of you reach, I would ask that you edit your own posts to reflect it. Or, keep me in the loop and I'll do the editing if you wish.

More than anything I see this thread as welcoming Al, but I won't argue over semantics. This is not a public court of opinion, AK is neither judge nor jury in whatever's going on here. Let's keep it as such.
 
When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the FORUMS
And love will steer the stars

Seems as though the pressures of the holiday season have caused a slip in the orbital alignment!

I hope Al, Amy and others involved will take a step back causing a shift an get everything back on track between members of all forums!

Come on folks, we are expending too much energy (me included) in this topic and hoping we can all agree to disagree, agree or move forward and shake hands at the end of the day.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukka to all!
 
Kamakiri,

I am certainly agreeable with that. I will try to conclude this later with a sumation of what Amy and I come to as a result of provate message exchanges since it has become such a big deal. I never really wanted this anyhow. I just wanted a simple exit from the Klipsch forums and to explain my reasons for doing so. The thread that ended it got accidently goofed up where all of my posts seemed to be deleted. That was why I wrote the open letter. All of it was later restored and it was too late to undo it!

Amy,

I followed the thread titled "Crossovers" or somethin in the "Technical Questions" of the Klipschforum where all this started. Al's posts were repeatedly blocked while he was being slammed, then the whole thread disappeared. I also wished that Al was given a chance to tell his side of the story....
