OK, I've had it with this forum.
Karl Henning, the THUG who runs riot in these discussions with the blessing of the Moderators, and his fellow God-bothering whackjob "Florestan", have brought these boards to a standstill.
You can't post a thing here without that moronic backstabbing bully HENNING attacking you personally.
And the Moderators won't do a damn thing, because they're sucking-up to the NON-COMPOSER HENNING as though he's some kind of untouchable VIP.
It's a pity, because these boards did have the potential for more intelligent discussion. But while they remain the personal fiefdom of a washed-up failed composer who is taking out his career failure on the rest of the world., there's no point in staying here.
So this is me, signing out, and now deleting my account.
Read for yourself (http://www.good-music-guide.com/community/index.php/topic,17082.msg444376.html#msg444376): you make the call.
Dude, take a chill pill.
Just ignore him.
It's not that difficult.
I read this forum to learn and see what other people think about things. Sometimes I even write messages. For long, I have ignored Karl as much as I can. That way I can stand what is going on here.
Man, I'd love to see some of these whiners on a 'real' forum.
This thing is so tame.
Plus there is a literal ignore button.
I mean they are really making this easy to for you.

Wow! A new word for my English vocabulary! Thank you.
Right then.
After 7 years of dealing with Karl, I am still awaiting the supposed residual benefits that come from allegedly kissing his ass. I'm sure there must be some... :-\
As for Dmitry, I think it fair to point out that he was chastised by the mods for conduct which far exceeded anything that Karl has done on his worst days. And he has demanded that we smite Karl similarly, despite the fact that there was no similarity of degree from one transgression to the other.
When someone is chastised, we don't publicize it for all to savor. If we agree that a person is justified in his/her complaint, we take appropriate action. You may well believe that we have done nothing, chances are you are wrong but that's for you to deal with.
I am posting this in public. Normally it would be sent in a PM to the poster involved, but we have already tried that route with Dmitry and gotten nothing but arguments in return. Life is too short for that. Anyone who isn't happy here is welcome to take action to rectify their unhappiness. If it breaks the rules, you will be gone with no return. I would be personally disappointed with that, but it is not my problem. If, in fact, you have determined to leave us, I'm sorry that we weren't a good fit for you, but there are other places that might be better suited. Good luck.
