Aaaaaand another intelligent conversation has been squashed by the forum hags.

It's funny how those who know the least about something seem to say the most.

Nah, I've just watched one too many threads get spammed into oblivion by the uninformed good ol' boys of the Fender forum.

Just to contribute to the contentious nature of the thread, since this guy seems to have me on his foe list, I foed him back. Strange, I don't remember having any negative interactions with him, but hey, whatever. And he's the only person on the list.

He wants to make it personal.
I also do not recall any prior upsets with him.

In my view when someone steers away from the issue at hand and resorts to personal insults, the laying of traps and attempts at ridicule they concede defeat.

I guess my post count is now 19.
I don't even want to know why that would matter to him.
I guess it never occurs to him that it might be a subject I am interested in and want to discuss and participate.

I don't see why anyone would take this personally unless they identify as a 'forum hag'.

Examining the thread, I see one person who have done more to derail it than anyone else, attacking people instead of talking about bluetooth amps. That person is not BMW-KTM. But I could be persuaded to see that disrupting person as a "forum hag", whatever that is.

Anyhow, I haven't seen any big news of Bluetooth amps from NAMM 2017 yet. The Fender CEO's statements last fall haven't materialized yet. Something could be launched later in the show, of course, but right now, on the amp side, the news that has gotten the most attention is Orange Rocker 15 and 32. The former having both a pentode/triode switch bringing it from 15 to 7.5 W, as well as an attenuator switch (cleverly named "Headroom/Bedroom", making it go down to 1W/0.5W. No bluetooth though.

Oh, he is definitely making it personal with that 'forum hags' nonsense, and then trying to be coy about it.

He must have foe'd me back when I was more active, because in this thread I was advocating for the OP to use Bluetooth if that's what he wants. Well, you can't please all the people all the time, and I certainly did a little ball busting now and then, so that's fine. But I've always held to the philosophy that we can all disagree and still have a beer afterward.

But if the people not on his foe list are 'forum hags', then I wonder what that makes me? :lol:

I was kinda wondering about that myself.
I always thought a hag was an ugly old witch.

Does this make 20?
Gee. This is fun.
I never thought to count how many times I post in one thread before.

The Lounge used to routinely be a page and a quarter to a half. Same for Strat. Several past and present crabby experts have just about shut the Forum down. This used to be gentlemen and ladies discussing things in a polite, mannerly way. Then several people showed up whose main goal was to insult people and their gear. If this doesn't change, the Forum will be more of a ghost town. The interesting people didn't stay with this.

Well, now that BMW-KTM has added to his rating on the list, I'll take the chance and add one more post.

Like many of the Forumites here, I too have been honoured to work amongst amateurs and true professionals in their field.

Those that I know are more than willing to share their knowledge, time, and skills. Few would turn a blind eye to anyone, no matter how skilled or experienced for it would be, as an example, a missed opportunity to not hear the Blues player with his diddley bow or cigar box as it would be to not learn from the spot lit entertainer in front of thousands. Having heard what each has to offer will at least give one choices.

I believe this Forum is full of good people - professionals and amateurs willing to discuss and share and wanting to have a good time (that's what music is all about) whether it's left, right. or in the middle.

Thanks, Fender and Forumites.

Just sayin'.

Bluetooth is a tool. If you want this new tool in your toolbox - go for it. On the other hand, use whatever tools are in your box. Even if they're old school. :wink:
