--- Quote from: Specmaster on August 25, 2022, 04:36:29 pm ---I expect you're right about some of the frequent contributors, but how many of those that did express negative opinions were not part of the thread of from the early days and so are not fully aware of the page contents or the of the thread's actual full title and what that says about the thread? I was actually invited to become part of this thread, before that I was to be seen lurking and taking part on some of the other threads here. --- End quote --- I did post in the thread fairly early on, but only posted in response to questions about test equipment. So in hindsight this was OT for that thread :D. Sorry about that. I did read the first post back then, but my thought back then was "this can't possibly be serious, this is just a place to chat about buying and fixing test equipment". When long stretches of off-topic posts became more prevalent, I stopped participating. Particularly because Chrome on my phone hangs whenever I open the thread due to the number of pages. The only time I run into the thread these days, is when I'm searching for information about a particular piece of test equipment and find a relevant post. Then I'm forced to read through the next couple of pages to see if anything else pops up about that piece of gear. |

Mission accompli, the wokes have it. --- End quote --- For the life of me I can't see what all the kerfuffle about TEA would have to do with woke or PC or whatever, other than you using every occasion to keep rubbing our noses in your dumb political agenda. --- End quote --- Ad hominem attacks are not helpful. I don't agree with their politics either, but I don't feel the need to insult them on a public forum. |

Just to say to the TEA gang I am going to be more active on Discord from now. I will be always thankful to the EEVBlog to spark the initial ignition flame to the TEA movement. For those who do not know what I am talking about, see below: The Official TEA server on Discord If I have time and the mood I will come back to the official TEA thread to post something of course on topic. |

When someone has so notoriously treated TEA to the kind of OT stuff that really upsets the moderators, from explosives and firearms (cited literally by gnif among his reasons for intervening) to the most bizarre political statements, and this person then has the gall to publicly complain about purported 'PC' and 'wokeness', one should be allowed to give them a piece of one's mind. |
