AHHHHHH, but your holy toma hawkness, they have not hancuffed you. I did not want to chime in, appreciating your right to bloviate, however, they have a job to do as you have certain priviledges to leave messages on this forum. Alembic has the right and business acument to protect their brand, and not promote others. I have learned a lot from many of your posts, and fallen asleep at many of your ramblings. The point the moderators I believe are trying to impress on all members, is that good taste and decorum still apply. Many of your ideas are wonderful, but if you choose to utilize another luthier or copmany to make a dream bass of yours, why blow it in Alembic's face. I do not know if you own your own business, although a clue is that you do not, since brand protection does not seem important to you. I wish you peace and love, and lots of pieces and loves, and perhaps an expanded ability to really listen when others speak or post. You add value at times, and sometimes you don't. Sometimes the moderators leave me alone, once in a while they don't. They have a job to do, we have posts to do. All in all, this forum is still a damn great place. Let's keep it that way.
