    Default I'm trying to get 100 posts!

    SACRILEGE

    I haven't been here long and during my time I have tried to post sincerely and honestly.

    I only give advice when I think it may actually be valuable.

    I haven't started new threads when a search of the existing will answer my question.

    With one (not to be repeated) exception, I have only started threads relevant to audio.

    Even in the clubhouse I only post when the subject is something that I care about.

    All of this "good behavior" has resulted in a low post count.

    I am aware that the "race to 100 posts" is a major point of contention around here and as a result I have been even more mindful of my visible participation in CP. But here's my situation:

    About a month ago at the request of a "high post" member of CP I started a transaction in PM. We came to an understanding that caused me to pack a box and get an exact shipping cost. At that point the other party vanished from the forum.

    No judgment on that individual (i hope he's ok) but I now have a box cluttering the front room and the better half is getting upset. If I continue to post in the same spirit then I will not be able to legitimately offer the "package" to other CP members for some time. I don't want to post pointlessly and muck up the forum or make myself look like and a**.

    So here's my request:

    If you are a member of CP in good standing and are willing to see my situation for what it is then please post a random question for me in this thread that I can answer. I will only respond once for each post you make on this thread and only if it is directed at me. I know it's playing loose with the rules, but to me this feels far more honorable than the other options available to me. Please note that as soon as I hit the submit new thread button I will already have 81 posts. I'm not starting at zero here and you can all search my past postings to see that I'm not jerking your chain.

    "what's in the box"

    I agree with your assertions in your OP! You do come off as a sincere individual whose desire it is to become a good contributing member.

    What type of Rev. are you?

    I see you have a Thorens tt in your signature. What kind of music do you spin on it, Rev?

    The Rev. title is totally undeserved. It stems from a prophecy made by a member of my mother's church and became a bit of a nickname. I hope you are not offended by the inappropriate use of the term.

    In that case, I'm wearing Puma's since you didn't answer

    Btw, just want to say I admire your honesty. That's the kind of stuff Club Polk's made of :D

    I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay, and we'll all be glad to see you stick around.

    What brought you to Club Polk in the first place?

    I surely hope this doesn't get shut down, as it appears you're trying to be open, honest, and "do the right thing".
    Ludicrous gibs!
