Recommendation for the forum
Posted by: glevethan on 10 June 2011
Many "veteran" forum members have left while others (such as myself) are slowly starting to dip their feet back into the water. Are all of the updates and fixes in place or are others still remaining to be implemented?
One component of the previous forum has not made its way back and I hope that it eventually will. On the previous forum directly underneath a posters name the date they joined the forum as well as the number of posts which they have made always appeared. Is this feature coming back? - I certainly hope so. During my 8 years of forum membership I have seen many posts and I have always found a direct correlation between the "accuracy and validity" of advice given and the number of years one has been a forum member. The reason for this is simple - the more years one has been around Naim components the more experience and wisdom one has accumulated. Quite often we see advice given as "gospel" by members who have only been Naim users for a short period of time. They speak about upgrades from 282's to 552's without ever owning either pre amp. I know that when I read posts I place more value on those coming from long time members who have had actual experience owning the gear they are posting about rather than from those who have been members for 6 months yet feel qualified to comment on every component in Naim's product line.
I hope this feature will be returning as I feel it will be beneficial to all who participate in both giving and asking for advice.
Respectfully
