Ericl is missing. We need someone to take over.

[GMichael]

No one seems to have heard from Ericl in quit some time. Until he returns, we'll need someone to stand in and captain our ship. I'm going to nominate a few possibilities. It's up to you to vote for your favorites. Who would you like to see with the iron gavel?
Write ins are welcome. I'm going to vote for L.J.

[PeruvianSkies]

My vote is for FOREVER AUTUMN based on two reasons:

1. I would vote her for President of the US, but she is in Canada.
2. She is the only woman in the poll and it's about time a woman runs something.

[JohnMichael]

I can not figure how I got the too nice rep. It has also started on another site.

[kexodusc]

(ahem, is this thing on?) My fellow, AR.com-ers...If elected your new leader, I promise to do my best to preserve the values we all hold so dear. Ar.com isn't about the individual, it's about community. As such, I don't want to be thought of as a leader - no, no, no...I prefer the term...

Ruler!

And as your ruler I shall decree unto thee 12 demandments:

1) Kex is always right - arguing with Kex is an exercise in futility. Even if you're right - I reserve the privilege of modifying your post to make your good points look silly.

2) All posts on Wednesdays shall include the words "Lost", "Dharma", or "Others"

3) Nobody shall use the term "all channels driven" as support for an argument

4) GM is to throw me more pool parties with the same hired catering service as before.

5) Posters responding to threads that are more than 4 weeks old shall be taken to the new Pillory Forum for public flaming.

6) In addition to "Quote" and "Go Advanced" buttons, forums will now be equipped with RTFM instant replies.

7) Using the words "Pace, Rythm, and Timing" to describe anything with lights on it is forbidden.

8) Using the words "Pace, Rythm, and Timing" to describe anything is forbidden.

9) Posters in "Fave Films" forum who fail to signal "spoiler alert" shall be taken to the Pillory for flogging.

10) Posters will visit Rave Recs each Tuesday to list their current playlists in the revived Tunesday threads...

11) Henceforth, Mondays shall be the day we all stop to appreciate the musical genius that is Styx.

12) I shall appoint Worf to the dual-role as my Minister of Polling/forum jester....

Vote for Kex...It's time for a change! (worked for Clinton).

John - UR2 nice. Get over it.

Kex - Nice platform. Good luck to you. Question: When is a piece of wood like a king?

Probably a good idea...btw...where is our beloved FA? I hope she isn't mad at me for posting that picture of her. I posted the best one from that evening, you should see the OTHERS!!!!

Well, with a total vote count of zero, (wait, let me re-count them, yup, zip) it doesn't look like I'll be starting my new job of Audio Zar anytime soon. :incazzato:
Like to see me juggle 5 rings of fire and two chainsaws with my teeth?:frown2: :arf:

...Man, frozen Margaritas get pretty strong down at the bottom of the barrel...

I nominate Resident Loser as the next prez of AR. Unfortunately he hasn't posted since... Well, that sucks. He's not logged in.:idea:

[basite]

vote for me and...

oh wait, I'm not even on the list :blush2:

my vote went to feanor, but I wished I could choose several times :)

You could have voted for yourself. See my, "write ins are welcome" notation? I voted for LJ myself.
But sorry, only one vote per person this time. Your vote for Feanor has been counted.
But at least you're in a tie with me for 6th place.

The standings so far.

FA - 2 votes - 1st place
John - 1 vote - tie for second
Kex - 1 vote - tie for second
Feanor - 1 vote - tie for second
Wooch - 1 vote - tie for second
mega tie with me, basite and everone else for 6th place at 0 votes

Still too early to call a winner.

[basite]

getting a mod/admin from another part of the world would have it's good points though, since I am online when you guys are sleeping :)

if anyone asked me to become a mod, I'd say yes :)

Let's all take a moment to focus here.

Are you saying that you are not a Purv?

[Rich-n-Texas]

PS, you got my vote! :thumbsup:

Now, don't forget about that deal we made... Pix gets booted right? :ihih:

[Mr Peabody]

I'm now accepting money to lobby Also who is going to offer more empty promises, like discounts from advertising companies, cleaning up a tarnished rep or free ice cream.

[PeruvianSkies]

Yep...that troll is OUTTA here!

For the record, my vote can be bought...

...I'm easy but I aint cheap.

Ah, c'mon guys, Pix is just misunderstood.

Trolls have always been misunderstood I suppose...right?

[GMichael]

He does liven this place up a bit.
Just think how much everyone talks about missing people like Lex and SVI. Sure, they were a little nuts. But we had so much fun with them. You'd miss Pixledick if he was gone. Go on, admit it. Deap down, you know it's true.

[ForeverAutumn]

Wow. I'm flattered to be nominated. But I have to throw my support Kex's way.

Anyone willling to revive the Tunesday thread is a candidate after my own heart.

[Rich-n-Texas]

...a candidate after my own heart.
HUH!!! What's this??? Are you single again???

Leg-humper alert!!!

[GMichael]

HUH!!! What's this??? Are you single again???

Hey! Get in line with the rest of us. Take a number.

I have number 27.

[ForeverAutumn]

Leg-humper alert!!!

Yeah, that's attractive. :rolleyes:

[PeruvianSkies]

We need more voters...rock the vote ya'll!

[Rich-n-Texas]

Yeah, a really pitiful voter turnout huh? So much apathy. :sleep:

[GMichael]

Not many people venture into the site feedback forum. I'm surprised that we've had this much turnout. We may be stuck with this tie.
Hope Eric is OK. I wonder why he doesn't come around anymore. Does anyone have contact with him? Any word on if he's alright?

[kexodusc]

Wow...I ran a campaign against people that don't even want the job and I'm still not winning...
I need to Gerrymander the vote somehow -
NEW RULE:

Rave recers get 13 electoral votes, all other forums count as 4 electoral votes...

Talk about rejection.

I definitely spend more time in RR...I think I probably post there more too since speaker, HT, general, amp,etc split the rest. Maybe I read more than I post though, I try not post when I don't have anything positive to say, but I'm guilty of venting at times too.

Fave films gets more time too...I find the other forums a little dull to be honest. There's only so many which $350 receiver should I get threads a man can take.

OK, how about this question?

Do you think a RECEIVER is good ENOUGH for a PROFESSIONAL DVD reviewer to use to review MOVIES with? Let me explain. I am the OFFICIAL DVD reviewer in these here parts. And I have a RECEIVER. But it's an ONKYO. And MY system HAS been calibrated by a PROFESSIONAL calibrator. HE told me that it's BEST to always have the CENTER at plus 10 while all the OTHER speakers are at minus 5. The two FRONTS are book shelf SPEAKERS, while the CENTER is a different brand SPEAKER. The surrounds ARE in the ceiling. PM me if YOU want to KNOW what brand THEY are.
Don't YOU wish that you COULD write like ME?

[PeruvianSkies]

How long do we have to wait for the throne to be empty before we can overthrow the king?

[GMichael]

I just hope he's alright at this point.

[bobsticks]

Gotta question: It seems like most of the mods around here don't post that often. Since Woochie has largely (but not completely) faded Kex really holds down the fort. I would be severly disappointed if his presence became mostly administrative--disappointed to the extent that I might lead a palace coup to the tune of "Et tu, Bobsticks?"

Besides, maybe I'd feel more egalitarian voting for the young lady since I doubt I'll be able to force myself into HRC.

[PeruvianSkies]

I think we should elect the person with the largest posting presence because if anything I think it's important for mods and admins to be involved with the site, and if you are posting with a higher frequency than that means you are involved, although we are not talking about short term troll posting, but rather long-term commitment posting. If you go by posts alone Kex would be one of the top choices, but this is also stretched out over the course of quite some time. Others have been around a shorter amount of time and have a substantial amount of posts. I am nearly 2K and will most likely hit that mark before this username turns 1 year old. That means I have an average of around 6 posts/day. GMichael averages around 7/day. Kex is around 4.5/day. FA is around 2/day. Wooch around 2 1/2 per/day.

Letting us decide who could replace Ericl (assuming he needs replacing) would be like letting the inmates vote on who runs the asylum. :crazy:

Has anyone ever thought, "Hey it's summer. Maybe Eric's enjoying a nice vacation with his family"?

If you go to the members galleries and choose sort by most active you will see a list that includes the most active users in both the forum and the photo gallery. As of right now here are those that frequent the forum that are in the top 20:

Pskies: #2
GMichael #3
dean_martin #6
Florian #7

Was I on the list? Not that I want the job but I'm out here almost once a day. Sometimes on the weekend I feel I'm the only one here.

Sorry, Psky, you are disqualified. It is in the AR bylaws that no inbreeder can hold a position of authority here.

I didn't see you in the top of the list, but I am not exactly sure how it does the 'active' ranking...I think it has to do with several factors: posts, # of pictures, # of visits to your pictures, and responses on pictures, etc.

I get into too many fights to be in admin anyway. I'm content being the unofficial AR goon.

[PeruvianSkies]

Where has dusty chalk been??? I haven't seen him in about 6 months around here...

[basite]

dusty seems to have left AR, He's still on AK though...

[kexodusc]

The photo gallery is a pretty poor measure of "activity". There's some rare posters with stuff in the gallery, and then there's some very active posters who just haven't bothered buying digital cameras :(

Sounds like PS is lobbying for the job though.
I'll vote for him.

[Rich-n-Texas]

I stand behind my write-in candidate.


Where are you ResidentLoser??? :sad:

[ForeverAutumn]

So it's better to have NO ONE running an asylum vs. an inmate running it?

I guess that depends who the inmate is. I say lets leave all the inmates to their own devices. Eventually a natural leader will emerge to take charge.

...or they'll all end up dead. Whatever.

[GMichael]

WTF?
I thought this thread was a joke?

It is. I don't want Ericl replaced. Just thought that if he was arround at all, he'd see this and chime in.

FA, I hope that you are correct about the vacation and that he's perfectly OK.

PS, There are still a few mods around who would most likely jump right in if we got out of hand. I even saw that Geof deleted a few porno posts last week. Haven't seen him post in a long time.

I miss the good ol' days when Florian and RGA would go at it. Or Florian and Geof. Or Wooch & Lex & Sir T. Or RL and most anyone else. Markw would keep the noobs in line. SVI would keep us all laughing our butts off. How about Soundideas? Anyone remember him and his crazy pixysnot?

Where have all the good times gone?:4:

[PeruvianSkies]

GMichael...

Do you think that you can hit 6K around the time that I hit 2K??? We can have a joint party if you'd like.

List? There's a list? I thought it was going to be a "show up if you want" party.
I'm sure that we'll have a nice party with plenty of fun activities. We're going to start off with, "can you match up this driver?" Kex will be disassembling everyone's speakers. If you can guess which drivers came from yours, then he'll put it back together for you. If you can match up other drivers with the correct enclosures then you get to keep them after he puts those together.
First up, we have a 82" x 38" sheet of mylar. Can you guess where this goes?

[Mr Peabody]

I was referring to the list some where here of most active members on the board.

Sounds like an interesting game though. To make it interesting, Kex has to do it blind folded.

That would be easy for me. I think my horns would stick out like a sore thumb in this group!!! I would be afraid that everyone would want to use them for beer couzies!!!

[basite]

it would be easy for me too, now wait, just let me study the look of those mini's out of my head :ihih:

[kexodusc]

Hey, that'd be fun... Man, I'm gonna need a new Torx driver set for this...and a whole lotta solder...why does every speaker company seem to use different screws?

Blindfolded shouldn't be too hard, though I've got a 50/50 chance of re-connecting them in proper phase.

[GMichael]

No guess on this first set of drivers? OK, I'll give a hint. They belong to one of the mods here.

[westcott]

E Stat would be my guess.

Good guess. Now, if I were you, I'd help Kex put your new speakers back together. I think he has that sheet upside down. Although, I'm not sure if that matters.

92 bottles of beer on the wall.....

I don't think that I'm going to make it on time. You'll have to start without me.

[Rich-n-Texas]

It's still tied so there will probably need to be a run-off.

(This will give me time to head to the border for some good Tequila)

[PeruvianSkies]

We need everyone to vote on this...it needs to at least have around 100 or so total votes.

[Mr Peabody]

Eric's family reported hearing from him, he was saying something about being in a AR member's closet when the line went suddenly dead.

[GMichael]

John, please let Eric out of your closet. He is not a pet, and you can't keep him.
But you can visit as much as you like.

[JohnMichael]

John, please let Eric out of your closet. He is not a pet, and you can't keep him.

I am not in my closet, Eric is not in my closet, it is 2007 and no one should be in the closet. If I see him I will tell him you were asking about him.:)

[GMichael]

I am not in my closet, Eric is not in my closet, it is 2007 and no one should be in the closet. If I see him I will tell him you were asking about him.:)

I was in the closet just the other day. It's the best way to scare the bejeebas out of my wife.

2007? Oh man. I must have programed my flux cap with the wrong year.

[PeruvianSkies]

So when is the official vote? GMichael you better get the party started soon!

[Rich-n-Texas]

I was in the closet just the other day. It's the best way to scare the bejeebas out of my wife.
Just as I suspected... you're a wife abuser. You'll soon be hearing from the local authorities son.

I'll bet ya if Fred Thompson would finally get off his duff and throw his hat into the ring plenty of votes would be cast! :rolleyes:

I'm still waiting for Eric to come back.:sad:

[PeruvianSkies]

I once had this really sad thought that if something happened to someone that I know/knew online (like if they were killed or died) I would never know about it. I am not trying to make this a depressing thought, but what if something tragic happened to Eric? Would we ever find out about it? Does anyone know how to reach him directly? It's been weeks!

[PeruvianSkies]

ok, so this thread is at least 2 weeks old and Ericl hasn't been seen on here for a good amount of time before that, so either A. he is on a really long vacation. B. something strange happened, or C. he has given up on this place.

[GMichael]

Maybe his computer is in the shop waiting for a part that's on back order.

[Rich-n-Texas]

Hey! GM. How was your day trip to Storybook Land on Friday?

[GMichael]

It was great. Bootty everywhere I looked. Dark meat. Light meat. Brown meat. Talk about choices! I might have hurt my neck though.
Oh, and the rides were fun too.:)

[Rich-n-Texas]

Smart-a$$

[Mr Peabody]

If you notice, Eric never had that many posts. I think last time I read one of his posts he was in the 800's. That's not much compared to the likes of Kex or Wooch.

According to the site it would seem his last login was on July 22nd. That's well over a month at this point.

Hey, someone anonymously gave me a red chicklet for this thread. Identify yourself...coward.

There's been a rash of that lately. I got a couple of anonymous red chiclets for telling someone that I liked their system.

[ForeverAutumn]

Well, even if the yellow-bellied-chicken-**** doesn't have the guts to fess up, it still doesn't keep me from being almost famous. :thumbsup:

Bring it on red-chicklet-man! Whoever you are.

[Mr Peabody]

FA, you are famous no matter what the chicklets say.

How do you know if you get a chicklet, where do you check them? Does it show new ones or do you just keep track?

The person don't dare say who it was or else they'd be dead meat on this board, forever, pardon the pun:)

[bobsticks]

Add me to the list of victims of the Red Chicklet Djinni--I got one for this thread and one for an older thread on CD/SACD players.

So much for interaction and mutual instruction. Whatever.

[Rich-n-Texas]

I wonder what happens when you come to the end of the Distiguished Path? Perhaps we'll never know...

[PeruvianSkies]

I always leave the same message when I give someone a rep point...most of you probably received one from me that simply says: from peruvian skies or from p-skies.

Thanks Mr. Body.

To see your chicklets, click on User CP above this thread. It'll take you to your control panel where you should be able to see your chicklets, comments (if there are any) and your total rep points.

I don't really care about the red chicklet...or the green ones for that matter. I was just having some fun.

Thanks Mr. Body.

To see your chicklets, click on User CP above this thread. It'll take you to your control panel where you should be able to see your chicklets, comments (if there are any) and your total rep points.

I don't really care about the red chicklet...or the green ones for that matter. I was just having some fun.

You don't care? You don't care about the green chicket I saved for you? But I worked so hard on it.
I can't believe that you don't care..:cryin:

[JohnMichael]

I always leave the same message when I give someone a rep point...most of you probably received one from me that simply says: from peruvian skies or from p-skies.



Except for the times you give red chicklets.

No no, she takes you with her...

WHERE IS ERIC???? Who is second in command anyway?

No no, she takes you with her...

That would be a reward for GM, not for me. :nonod:

[Mr Peabody]

Woo Hoo! I've got points. Thanks to every one who helped me get where I am today. I'll try to spread the love. I have given points before, when I have, I've left a message. I haven't lately though because one time I tried to give some one another point and I got a message saying it was too soon, so I'm not sure how much time must elapse

You can't take the rep too serious though, I mean to the point where it slants what you say, and, to who..

Hey! We've got a winner! Congrats PS. Lead on. :thumbsup:

Close the poll, quick!

You bet! :biggrin5:

When does this poll expire?

[GMichael]

When does this poll expire?

When people stop posting to it.

[PeruvianSkies]

Well, the poll was stagnant for quite some time....I still think we need more votes...maybe the first candidate to get to 10??

[Rich-n-Texas]

Ya know, I have no idea how to start a poll, but I've seen others that do have a time limit.

[GMichael]

I didn't set this one up to have a time limit. I don't like restraints. Well, not on me anyhow.

What do you think will come first....someone reach 10 votes or Eric comes back?

[PeruvianSkies]

I am beginning to wonder what the purpose of a section called "FEEDBACK and DISCUSSION" is designed for, since everyone complains about how feedback is never really responded to and there is little discussion here as well. Hmmmm.

[GMichael]

What do you think will come first....someone reach 10 votes or Eric comes back?

I pick, option number 3. The earth will turn to dust long before either will happen.

[audio_dude]

Um why hasn't anyone voted florian yet? or maybe E-stat? dunno if they'd be interested, but anyone who doesn't know jack about audio, or isn't willing to learn, will be gone faster than a cheeseburger in the hands of a fat guy. (no offence to fat guys)

[GMichael]

They shouldn't feel bad. They aren't the only ones with 0 votes.

Somebody better start steering this ship, or we're going to run aground.

[PeruvianSkies]

Somebody better start steering this ship, or we're going to run aground.

It seems that no one who has the powers to turn the ship at this point really care if we crash and burn. Apparently this site can exist with or without this forum and therefore it doesn't really matter if we are here or not, we are just a bonus for the site if we somehow get people to come or buy stuff.

Now what is backwards about this is the fact that while they might not think that they need us, imagine what type of business this site could generate if they actually listened to our feedback and actually made this a cool place to come to...now that would be sweet, but I doubt it will happen.

[Mr Peabody]

I don't feel bad for those with goose eggs, at least they made the list. Some members, oh... I don't know who, didn't even get on the list.

Mr.P for President. :cornut:

We could call you skipper if ya want.:D

[Mr Peabody]

Oh! thanks, and such a surprise. I'm flattered.

[PeruvianSkies]

I glad accept the position, although no one seems to be around to hand over the keys to this place, which is a shame....I have so many great ideas on how to make this place work. Oh well, if no one comes around soon enough I am throwing a rock through the window and climbing in that way.

Sorry Mr P. There were only 10 slots to fill. But even without being on the list, you still got more votes than I did. And I started the poll. Thats some major rejection. I didn't even vote for me. I voted for LJ who is yet another person who was not on the list but got more votes than me.:17:

Free Lunches??

Free Lunches??

Hmmm. That might be different as everyone is so spread out and everyone likes different things. I was thinking about a AudioFest....we could find a place that is centralized and take our gear there, just like a Show and display what we have and such. Now that would take some serious masterminding and effort on all those involved, plus not everyone would want to disassemble their gear and transport it, but I wish that we could somehow listen to everyones setup...maybe we just rent out a huge van/bus and drive all over and listen to everyones stuff? Well, we might need a plane to get to some places...

It would be cool to have regional get togethers...

That could work, although it seems like our community here is depleting at a steady rate and I don't know how many people are really that tight with one another, especially to meet them face-to-face, although I must say that would be interesting because it's one thing to sort of see everyones personality online, but these are just words....seeing each other really puts things into a whole new perspective on things. Like, "oh wow, I never pictured you being so fat". Etc etc.

[Luvin Da Blues]

, "oh wow, I never pictured you being so fat".

Ok Ok I'm working on that. LOL

[Luvin Da Blues]

Don't think of it as depleting, think of it as culling.

Each region could have contest or something and send a couple of regional members to a International Hoe Down????

[Mr Peabody]

The board shouldn't be ran by just one person, I'm more in favor of a board board, maybe consisting of 5 members who will discuss decisions and rule with the majority vote.

How about members get to buy from advertisers at factory direct prices.

rule by commitee is painfully slow in the real world, its going to be even moreso in an online environment. i think 5 is too big, 3 should be the maximum, and they should be three people who rarely share the same opinion - "if two people are in agreement, you can be sure that one of them is unecessary".

[Mr Peabody]

As long as it's not a single person ruling his will on the board. We all get into a battle occasionally and I hate to see the power to delete, ban, or rebuke, be given to just one person.

What if a board was put together made up of 11 people who are frequent visitors, want to see AR thrive, have a solid reputation, a decent post count, have been around for at least 3-6 months, and are willing to take the position for a designated amount of time, say...1 year for starters. T

This way in order to ban someone it must be approved by a majority of the votes from the board.

HEY GUYS!!

Sorry... i guess i never told the board. I quit working for AudioReview in April! I moved down to san diego and got a great new job but it's keeping me super busy. miss you guys though! I pop in and lurk now and then but hardly ever log in..

You "guess" you forgot? How does that happen? One would think that is a rather important detail to clue people in on, but you were probably like "Screw you guys, peace outti".

Now that you are lurking....who is the new contact person for this site or are we just a looney bin running wild?

Does he have admin rights to make someone a mod?

Super Mod, its possible but not likely. my point is that the site has not been completely left to flounder.
