I first joined Audiogon so I could buy stuff. I've more recently been
a regular poster and am enjoying stepping out some,getting my feet wet. I'm not tech savvy so have been judicious in my posts but certainly appreciate those people who have strong backgrounds in the audio world and I find a certain sense of kindred spirit here that
has helped me progress in my audio endeavors. Certainly a good healthy benevolent approach prevails among members......I've gotten good help directly and also by just reading threads that applied to something I might want to know. I don't have a veterans perspective here so I understand the frustration of long time members,but my
perspective may give a balance to the frustration and show that newer members are getting good rewards and good vibes along the way. This being said I also recognize that some threads degrade into mud slinging and harsh tone.......O well such is thread life everywhere. For what it's worth,I just last night joined Audio Circle.
It's a whole different thing over there.....my first impressions are mixed so it may be just an adjustment period,but lots of rules,can't search on this site,or do that,a more distinct and structured initiation than I found here. Initiation here is way less formal ......you jump in and off you go.... After my start at AC and subsequent checking things out earlier today....I must say I felt I'd come back home just to click for Audiogon.......a comfortable place. Much more to say but word escaping me for now.......I guess in a long rambling way I'm saying I like it here . I hope for the more battle-worn members it might be a good thing to hear stuff like this,as have other members
also expressed their positive thoughts.
