I joined this esteem forum many years ago , but have started to become a regular contributor only really in the last 12 months. In the days of my misspent youth i worked as a manager in a high end hifi retailer and then went onto to work for several, non related electronics companies in several different managerial capacity's.
So in summary i know a bit about electronics and have kept up with both hifi and specifically my real interest AV.
Now i dont know about other regular contributors, but as a point of irritation i do find that more and more people are asking questions on this forum. I and others then try to give worthy answers, with no agenda and motivation other than to assist another forum member struggling with a conundrum.
So they ask we answer, they then do pretty much the complete bloody opposite to what we recommend. Or dont even bother to tell you what they have done/resolved etc. I must admit i have had it with family members also, so am beginning to realise it must be a facet of how we, or some are hard wired?
Ask a question seeking attention, get people on board to try and assist, ignore all the good knowledgeable advice and do the complete opposite. So why ask the question, i understand some people need affirmation, but to then do the opposite, to me make makes no sense.
Maybe thats it, most people dont have an ounce of it.
Ok beef over.
