I don't believe that is a troll in the most common usage of the term with respect to internet forums. What he does is play devil's advocate, in that he does not make personal attacks but rather just posts a contrary opinion in order to stir the pot and more importantly to get one to at least rethink their rigid positions. Throw in the facts that on occasion he can also be funny and that he does not seem to take himself too seriously, something more than a few members might learn from, and I say that on the whole magiccarpetride is more than welcome to keep on stirring the pot. -- ralphpnj Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels -> Snatch -> The Transporter -> Transporter 2 (oops) -> Touch 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/jazzfann/) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93380 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
