Most helpfull member of the forum

[topspeed]

that would be great if RGA won most annoying member AND most helpful member :P

RGA has actually helped me quite a few times. Before I bought my VR1's, he was the one that figured out I was just looking for something different from my B&W's. I hadn't considered this, but he was spot on. Honestly, I have no idea how he's leading the most annoying thread when there are soooo many better candidates (i.e. Hershon & Lex)

It is easy to explain why someone could be both the most helpful and the most annoying. People are often annoyed by intelligent, knowledgeable people. They often say things that are antagonistic to the comfortable prejudices that many people enjoy, and many people are very annoyed by someone who tells them that they are wrong. And even more annoyed when the person saying they are wrong is right.

On the other hand, someone can be very knowledgeable and useful, and still be a pain in the ass, who makes the lives of others a living hell by being an obnoxious jerk. There is, after all, no contradiction in being both annoying and useful.

These are general comments, by the way, not directed at anyone in particular.

Why, thank you for so quickly elevating me to such a special status! It is most gratifying to be called intelligent and knowledgeable and right!
