anyone else feel like this

My favourite place on the forum was hi fi separates used to love meandering
though the queries. i cant go there anymore at the moment and its no ones fault really. what happening is there hundreds of new people signing on and that's healthy but the draw back is there all asking the same subjects as been asked many times before.

We used to subscribe to computer active magazine then it got to much after a couple of years it repeated itself over and over I'm sure all hobby publications do it, because every day someone new subscribes and they have to keep going over the same old area over and over again and again.
am i right?


Anyone else sort of noticed this?

Thanks

Lisa

Yep. Until there's a new bit of technology round the corner (and with Hifi, that's not often) things can go hat way.

There are times like that in every forum. You can't always know the answers to the questions asked, and if a load come at once, then there's plenty of people on that particular section who really know their onions.

As someone said, hifi rarely changes, only in terms of engineering does it move on all the time, and major new innovations can be counted on the fingers on one hand - over a forty year period!

I also enjoy that forum Lisa, but I never get tired of answering the questions that I can.

Also new innovations tend to get their own forums anyway. The visual side is split into many different areas as is the audio, even down to forums for certain companies. So inevitably the questions in what is a 'catch all' will become a bit 'samey'.
