    Hi Denis,

    Welcome to AoS

    Before any new members are allowed to use our free advertising facilities, they are required to pop into the Welcome area and introduce themselves to our community, outlining the system they use and the music that they like.

    Jumping in simply to post a free ad is, as I'm sure you'll agree, rather rude.

    Therefore, your ad has been temprarily removed until you comply with the registration procedure, so we would be obliged if you did so on your next visit, after which your ad will be fully restored.

    Cheers!

    Marco.

    ok... sorry about that...
    I certainly didn't thought that it could be perceived as "rude"...
    sounds a bit like entering someones private home...
    I confesse that the use of forums is a new thing for me...
    although I have read lots of posts/opinions over the past 2/3 years to guide me in my hifi understanding & purchases...
    my computer skills are a bit clumsy too... so I dont like typing that much...
    my system (Rega dac, PL Dialogue2, audio Note an/j) is in flux at the moment...
    I do not feel it to be balanced i a way that entirely satisfy so writing about it in a negative way is not the most encouraging stimulant to start a "persona" on a forum...
    will get a Leben this week that will, I hope, provide the ingredients that I am looking for...
    maybe then I will make the uber-effort to write something about it...
    writing about my musical taste is another matter...
    music for me is a private/intimate thing...
    it has been a personal cerebral and individual journey...
    I do not feel the need to share/display it with many/other people...
    besides I do not remember having ever read anytime on a forum that vaguely interested me...
    that sound rather hermetic...
    but thats far from the case : i supply my curiosity with a network of radios/programs from around the world via the net ; mainly France, Germany, & the US...
    I am fluent in those 3 languages..
    that has allows to expend beyond the somewhat narrow pop/rock and the very very conservative classical national musical scene...
    ok... thats enough for now... for someone that does not like typing...

    kind regards

    Denis

    Hi Denis,

    No problem - it's perhaps because you're new to forums, or in this case, our community of audio and music enthusiasts.

    Obviously this site has running costs which have to be paid for, and although we don't charge our members for advertising their wares, we do however ask that they put something into the site, rather than merely take from it...

    Therefore, in that respect, I'm sure you can understand that joining purely and simply to take advantage of our free advertising facilities is rather discourteous, although I accept that being rude wasn't your intention.

    If you also check the instructions you received during the registration process, you'll see that we ask all new members to post in the Welcome area FIRST, before doing anything else.

    However, if you can do me a favour and copy the bit you've written below, and post it as a new thread in the Welcome area, perhaps also including what music you like, in terms of your favourite groups (or composers), I will restore your ad with immediate effect. This will show that you're willing to contribute something to our community and deserve to have access to our free facilities

    Hi Denis,

    And I replied to your visitor message (to view it, simply click on your username on this page, then on 'View Public Profile', and scroll down). The message was that, sorry, we don't remove people's profiles. Why not just post in the Welcome area, as requested? You've already done most of the hard work....

    It won't hurt, I promise!

    Marco.

    People rarely seem to read the rules when they join a new forum and many people probably just want to join for more casual lurking and thread reading. Not everyone wants to do the whole community thing. So when presented with a bunch of initiation rules to comply with they probably feel that they don't care enough to comply with the requirements. I guess it depends on what you want out of a forum and how familiar you are with a particular forum before joining.

    Personally I usually spend quite a while reading posts on a forum before I decide to join it. So I'm already quite familiar with the rules and general etiquette and subtleties. I'm sure that others simply stumble across a forum and join quite quickly. In which case there are always going to be a few people that can't be bothered to comply with the joining rules or feel that the rules are over the top. It's just one of those things. A lot of people like the internet because it allows them to be anonymous and individual, so obviously community orientated forums like AoS won't be to their liking. That's the way I see it anyway.

    I think that you're completely right, Dave, and I agree. However, that doesn't change how we like to do things here, therefore new members either embrace and accept how we do things here, when they're made aware of it, if necessary, or not. It's entirely their decision. AoS was never meant to be all things to all men. Oh, and we don't 'do' anonymity
