That sucks. We should bring it up on PM.net.
I just picked up a MB Quart RAA2400(200 x 2) for $180 shipped. If not for the posting of the deal, I would have never known.
I think Matt's going a little overboard with his new moderator powers. . .

That's what I am saying.
People forgot they got their shit from deals that members posted too!
Look at his gears: Tru, denford, and he said he got tru before I posted the GB, total BS.
Before the GB, there wasn't a tube C7, what a crack head.

Say something to the admin. I am a moderator over at clubrsx.com and moderators get the boot' all the time for having power trips. Nothing will get done if its not brought to the attention of someone with higher authority.
Quit spamming Eng :P

well actually, i kinda posted that thread to kinda test out what would happen.... :P
..but seriously, that guy is kinda acting up too much..! it used to be a cool environment, but now it feels like its under some sort of dictatorship.... :|
Guess i'll ask Bob what's going on with ECA next time i see him...

It's definately a shame. The deals through ECA are part of what makes/made it great.
I know this will be unpopular, and in the big scheme of things, I don't really care and don't know Scott Buwalda...but why is it considered spamming when an established member posts a link to a great deal (that they have no affiliation with) and it is not when Scott comes on himself and starts a post "Come to my SQ instructional meet...it costs x amount of dollars"? Again, I have nothing against Scott and no desire to ban/edit his posts, but a little uniformity in judgement never hurt anyone.
Also, in the edited post, the mod wrote:
"DO NOT POST LINKS W/O SOMEONE ASKING FOR THEM! THIS IS ALMOST SPAM"
So is it OK to start a thread entitled "Does anyone know of any good deals on amps/subs/speakers/other nice equiptment"? I was considering following the mods post with just that question, but I don't want to get banned or even "spoken to".

I couldn't say it better.
Buwalda's thread was more like spamming, IMO. He even offers free speakers, etc.
Wasn't it great back then when members like us found great deal and post it? Remember the Vifa PL cheapboy/npdang posted?
I miss the old ECA...sigh.

duuuuuude I so agree with that,
I always thought it was odd that since eca has a strict NO dealer regulation, but dude can announce a 250/head symposium???
oh well
glad for this forum :) hope it stays positve and informative

spam isn't very well defined on eca right now. I personally don't think it is spam if it's from a respected competitor/member? I personally see Juan coming on and telling everyone about denfords being that same thing as the buwalda summit.
As far as the posting deals, I've brought it up in the Website Community Discussion forum.

We can post these kind of threads again. One issue resolved. :)

Now if we could just get the thread content back on track... :cry:
Edit:
I will say that ECA will never be the same. For example, npdang's technical threads are here now. He was/is a major contributor to the site.

Aaron is the man!!!!! :D
Sidenote: ECA won't be the same.
I notice more and more people missing. Where is werewolf, for example?

Don't kid yourself, everyone knows U da supreme man! I am just trying to do what I can. Where else would I whore it up? :twisted: :lol:
Seriously though, Matt is a good guy. I'm sure his intentions where good, they just didn't come off so well. I could see myself trying to make a difference in the forum when given new responisbility to.
I think werewolf is on hiatus. I remember reading a post from him talking about needing a break for a while. I'm sure the abundance of crappy threads helped with that though. I know what you guys mean about all the box threads. Makes me wonder if it is due to the Marv wannabe.
I wonder where everyone is going. I pretty much only goto ECA. Lately I've been here just as much though.

Don't be so modest, Aaron sire!
You da man for posting that, I wouldn't do it since I pissed off Matt badly and asked him to ban me, lol. I really didn't mind if he edit/warn me first, but deleted my thread 3X? That made me upset.
Anyways, same here. Used to float around SD, CAF, GEM, but so far, only here and eca, and ebay, of course! :D :D

Ya I can see how that would be frustrating. I was upset that by the time I figured out what you were posting to, I missed out. That was one helluva deal!
I'm sure npdang will do great things with this forum anyways. It already has a lot of sweet info. I havn't written ECA off though. We'll just have to see how things turn out.
I think i've seen Jeff post on CarSound not long ago...

I hope everyone comes of here, This is a very informative forum, just a little dead. How about some Advertising nguyen?
btw, Next time someone has a linky they want to share on eca, like an amp? Just ask another forum member to make a thread on " does anybody know of a good x amplifier?" :P

Heck, that was the "old" Elite. Besides, I don't make a cent if we sell 1 or 500 of those denfords. I had to do some convincing to get those in (those were my babies, I pulled the trigger on getting them and making sure we got more).
If it happened again where we could get more, it wouldn't be allowed to be posted on Elite I suspect.

Just to be clear, the example was in no way derogatory to you. It was just used as an example. I thought that was great of you, and I bought one myself. :)

did anyone else catch the part where csugayboy said "This is almost SPAM"
almost does not mean anything. imagine a cop pulled you over and said "i pulled you over because you almost ran that red light" or "you were almost speeding".
