    Default Amazes Me!

    Why on earth can't people be genuine instead of using forum for motives, you know a community is suppose to be a friendship thing. Last time i be generous sending freebies out thats for sure.A lot of people use forums as a passtime thoughout the day. no friends on line dudes get used to it imho.

    Not sure what's prompted that Andre, but please don't tar everyone with the same brush - there are a few people here I consider friends, and a select few who I've yet to meet for "real" but I would still class as friends - you're included in that select few, dude!

    Where's that come from guv'nor? I spend far too long online right now and hope with all my being that this'll be sorted late November if not sooner. I do have friends, but many of them are "HiFi based" ones, as that's where I made my life for so long. Can't help that unfortunately... I've been given a heck of a lot in recent times and am eternally grateful for it, but in my own way I do try to give as well, if not in material terms, then hopefully in some of my knowledge and experience

    I can understand where you're coming from mate, cyber space is a great place for fakers to hide and expand their egoes using false names in the hope they'll never be discovered. But I have met some decent people in real life who I wouldn't have met at all if they hadn't been online, it's not all bad dude.

    I modded a PS1 for a guy in the UK who asked me through Diyaudio. I said that he could have the Poly caps I fitted for free. I just wanted him to refund the postage. Did he......errrr.........No.

    Andre,

    You sent me some caps, I'm eternally greatful. You made such a difference to a pair of speakers that were about to be skipped I'd still quite happily send you a few quid for the caps you sent. Hope your day gets better, have a few of these
