Err...yes, there are. Like this one for example:Originally posted by merlin
There are certain threads that provoke by suggesting the person expressing his/her opinion is somehow defficient
Since you were clearly referring to Tones and WM, yes I'm sure they, like all of us, hear things differently but I'd wager that under blind test conditions the "Goldeness" of their ears would be remarkably similar.Originally posted by merlin

Regarding the word "imagine" I don't find it insulting or condescending. However, as the subject is bound to come up again, which word would you prefer was used to describe differences that can be heard when the identity of the kit is known but mysteriously disappear when it isn't?

Oh please - I'm not saying that the differences will necessarily disappear, I'm saying that I think they probably will. You're saying you think they probably won't. I could just as easily say that you're assuming it as fact without any evidence. There is however plenty of evidence of people only hearing differences when they know what they're listening to. There's nothing wrong with that, it's happened to me too.Originally posted by lowrider
"Mysteriously disappear" is also insulting or condescending, you are assuming that as a fact without any evidence, how do you know if it will disappear, what do you think you know that we dont... :newbie:

Try it yourself. It was noticably absent from your response to MO earlier.

Still humour, like everything is of course subjective.

Then I imagine you'd be banned.Originally posted by merlin
If I stated on this forum that you were an idiot I would rightfully be banned.
If I were to imagine that you were a idiot then I guess that would not be a problem
What if I were to state that I imagine you are a idiot?
Then it would be clear that you hadn't evaluated my intelligence under double blind test conditionsOriginally posted by merlin

MO,
I don't need to attempt anything. If I wanted it to "kick off" in your terminology, I could do so with ease.
If you have a problem with my posts, PM me, or better still drop up to Buckinghamshire and speak to my face.
