For a flame war to maintain momentum, the participants need to have the
stamina to keep it going.
For many years the Slim Devices audiophile sub-forum was a polite place
where occasional outbreaks of name-calling might erupt, but soon died
down. It was populated by mainly rational folk who were prepared to
observe common human decencies even when they had disagreements. (I'm
thinking of Phil Leigh, Patrick Dixon and the like).
But in recent weeks and months, this forum seems to have attracted the
type who just won't let it go and is determined to escalate things until
the conversation resembles a pantomime ("oh yes it is", "oh no it isn't"
- repeat ad nauseum). They occupy both sides of the divide. They are in
danger of turning this forum into something resembling the worthless
cesspool that the rec.audio.opinion newsgroup became.
