Banned at AVSForum

[AVSCraig]

Did you see the gratuitous Sony "SPONSORED POST": "Big Game, Big Screen Sony Projectors Buyers Guide" posted by admin?! 

I wonder would they accept a similar deal with JVC!! 

There are Sony ads all over that site. Take a look at Joerods VW885 " review " - it reads like a Sony ad. Nothing against Sony projectors - we sell them, but parts of the AVS forum read like a Sony infomercial !

Man that thread is getting ridiculous now. I have to bite my tongue there. So many smart a*s posts just asking for replies... Oh well they have their little corners where they can take stabs at all of us.

Joerod is a real piece of work. He jumps on any person who is not a Sony owner like they have no business reading the thread.

Why are not people like the user posting this banned on the other forum, this must be one of the most insulting posts I have ever seen and it is coming from a "serious" AV dealer in the US.

I saw your posts. Thing is, if I respond to Joerod or anybody ( and the same will happen to you perhaps ) that I'm not biased since I sell Sony, and JVC ( and Epson etc. ) I run the risk of being completely banned for saying I sell projectors in threads. I already got a warning last week for a general post like that.  It's like tip toe thru the mine field - got to watch exactly what you say ! I was trying to figure out a way to word it so I wouldn't get a warning or finally get banned, and then I just gave up.

Joerod is sponsored by Sony and he as biased as one can be.

Don't even get me started on that guy.

Everyone who is still a member on the other forum should report the post of VGI as insulting towards John Schuermann and Mike G, things like that should not be tolerated. I was banned for less than that.

True.  After I read that post I thought to myself I need to find another forum.  just ridiculous

I'm not banned, but I asked Dave Harper what happened to a few members (Seegs specifically) because their absence has left a void imo and he pointed me here.  I'm glad to see some familiar voices, which have helped me out many times in the past so I'll always be grateful.  To be honest, I was glad to hear that it was just a ban and not anything health related.

Long story short, I'm glad to have a new home.

I have just received a "Warning" for posting in the 760ES Owners thread..

Apparently  i am a "Biased" JVC Z1 owner?   with a "Hidden Agenda" ?

The mind boggles!!!

A post like that should not be deleted, it should be left standing for all to see and the user should be banned. I hope he misses a lot of busienss because of this. I have a copy of that post and I will never delete it.

That must be the most stupid warning I have ever heard about, the other forum is getting so silly now. Just leave it to the Sony fanboys and all others can come over here and we can have a real unbiased forum with real discussions withoug being warned all the time because of Sony owners dont like critisism of their beloved brand.

I dont understand how one can be in love with a brand like some of the Sony fanboys on the other forum, personally I dont care what the label on my stuff says. I just buy what I think is best within my budget, if it says Sony, Acer, Apple, Microsoft, Parasound, Fanatec, Nvidia, Swans, Intel, EVGA, MSI, Epson, Yamaha, Oppo, JVC, Denon, LG, Samsung, Panasonic or whatever I dont care. I actually have electronics from all the brands (and more) mentioned in my house right now. And the last two years I have owned projectors from Sony, Epson, Cineversum and JVC and all of them where great projectors.

I just can't help myself sometimes and I have to try and combat this mindless fools.  That VGI guy I don't know how he gets away with some of the posts he makes over there.  He doesn't even try to temper his blatant bias towards Sony.  The least informed individuals over there seem to have control over the dialogue on the forums w/out recourse.
