I came here to talk about headphones, lol what is going on..
nscharmerYea man idk, @zoomorph usually comes around to troll but it looks like he's gotten into a real life internet fight with someone else. Should probably call the wambulance for both these guys.

WillWill, You guys need moderators for this discussion thread. This is a real business and not just some troll fest forums for these people to come on here to trash other opinions. This is what drivesme away from sites and I feel like this is a business site with a fun discussion on the side about real topics and questions from people that are honestly asking. I want to ask questions on different things for different drops but when you have a "troll" coming just being a complete jerk (was going to use other words) and making it awkward, Ill go back to amazon and pay the extra money just to not have to read through the junk

bjwI actually don't have a problem with zoomorph's comments. The real problem over there is shagatron in my opinion. He is a D. Zoomorph did not devolve to derogatory comments when replying to shagatron's first comment. He simply stated his feeling about how we shouldn't feel the need to buy inferior products because we pity the poor American craftsmen. I might not be American but I feel the same way about local South African products. If it's overpriced garbage I don't buy it. Simple as that. That’s why the only locally manufactured goods I buy is stuff from Cape Union Mart (a local adventure store of sorts) that makes some of the best quality clothing for every weather type. Getting back to the argument it was shagatron who devolved into a whining child with words like "sad, tiny bubble" "spoiled, privileged, little king" "three McDoubles for the drivethrough window." "you have no concept of worth.". If someone said something like that to me after I stated an opinion (especially one that most agree on) without saying anything bad against them, I would probably give them a whack over the head. What we really need over here is a 4chan mod.

bjwYou mean the general two opposing crowds for and against Grado headphones. Namely the "Did is da best shiz ever, omg da highs" and the opposing team "omg the highs are destroying my ears, so much for tonal balance, worst built kek, who uses did kek". Those two groups and everyone in between. That or I have no idea what you are talking about (probably because I never took the time to read 3-4 pages back). Yes I just took a trip down the old 4chan tunnel. BTW I have owned a pair of these headphones and i thought they sounded fairly good, but I just couldn't handle the twisting cables (which eventually broke) so in my usual fashion I soldered on some custom cables and bent the top of the bar so that it would hit the outside of the headband which would stop if from spinning more than 360. I also replaced the leatherette vinyl stuff on the headband with two self machine sewn leather pieces over the top headband bar. Two small leather box pillows (think something like the Sennheiser headband cushioning with the two split pieces on some of their older headphones before they moved to the single cushion). Sewn directly to the under side piece of leather on the headband. Very proud of those mods. Made a family member very happy.
bjwYep, we do need mods but to @Zer0lag's point, we want to be very deliberate and careful of what it means to put mods in place and give them directives.

WillMods don't need to talk, they just need to be able to eradicate certain threads. There is an existing flag button for spam. Add a secondary function that lets us flag off-topic or undesired comments or make a whole new button for that sole purpose. Have someone check through reported stuff weekly or some time interval. Does it contribute to discussion about the product and the report is false? Dismiss the claim. Is it unnecessary and serves to take discussion away from the product? Nuke it from orbit.
No explanation. No discussion. The mod doesn't need presence. The mod doesn't need to be a mod. We just need some sort of system in place for such a situation as this.
