Sorry, but after reading a few old threads, I had to ask... What are the most ridiculous thread moments?
I'll start with the smugness factor. When someone (let's not name names) has to matter-of-factly end their post with their names, like they're having the last word in the arguement.
I find it the forum version of "You've been served!" or dropping the drumstick ala Drumline.


Yeah What's Up Now!

P.S. I mean this in fun and jest. Not trying to flame or get personal here.

The mere existence of a forum where people discuss headphones and all the appurtenances fitting thereto is laughable.

Being told that I need $10,000.00 wires to hear every last detail out of my $62.00 speakers. I did say speakers so that is the price for three. Two satellites + subwoofer.

No, see, those two differ by a lot; one is obnoxious, the other is painfully thought-provoking.

I've been eating churros lately because people here couldn't stop mentioning that poll.

That thread was indeed funny and depressing at the same time!

It's depressing because it took 68 posts before someone actually gave him some good advice:

"it is my belief that a headphone cannot reproduce bass properly. proper bass should be felt in your gut and no headphone can do that."

Someone makes a post about feeling the bass, my first thought is to forget headphones altogether or at least de-prioritise them (i.e. keep the skullcandies and invest in a killer speaker setup).
