Ang saya saya talaga dito sa philmusic.
my discovery of this thread plus the looming long weekend really made my day. so two cents ko --
Kurek me ip i'm rong:
So ang sinasabi ni mr. oas, kung wala kang masyadong money to burn, wag mo nang pag aksayahan ng panahon to. Baka mali ako pero that seems like sound advice to me.
Pero ang kalakihan ng reklamo eh yung paraan ng kanyang pag 'review.' Maaangas, may pagka matapobre ang dating. Could have been phrased better, tama ba?
Someone once said,
I may not agree with what you say, but to your death I will defend your right to say it.PERO the thing here is, it seems like nobody has actually heard mr. oas play with, or use this particular review item (or any other item for that matter?). sound and tonality being matters of personal taste or preference, mr. oas' review would thus appear to become useless, or maybe irrelevant.
So in comes sir BAMF with his challenge, for
everyone's education. One-on-one. Stuff-of-the-not-financially-challenged versus gear-of-the-mechanically-and-electronically-creative.
Mr. oas appears to have posted twice after sir BAMF's invitation: castigating sirs vegetablejoe and letour, and commenting on the shredmaster, but utterly and absolutely ignoring the invite.
What's the argument or excuse here, mr. oas? that you won't (or don't have to) stoop down to the level of us who cannot afford (or refuse to spend) on botique stuff? that you don't have to prove anything to anybody? c'mon, sir. so as to give your reviews maximum credibility, let the masses hear your stuff. i personally won't mind any irrelevant verbal surplusage of any of your future reviews, as long as i know that i have some basis to agree or disagree with your review; in fact, i think the verbosity and the callousness and "politically correct insults" add spice to what would otherwise be a pretty geeky discussion.
Or maybe you would not want to face all those who appear to have been offended, on some level or another, by your commentary -- this would be pretty understandable. but it does not give anyone an opportunity to examine the accuracy of your reviews (i am assuming that you review gear in order to help others who might be contemplating on getting the same stuff as you have, since that's usually the main point of reviews; heck, i may be wrong, but i'll assume away anyway). have someone else face-off with sir BAMF, using your stuff maybe? or even post soundclips of yourself using your gear? agree to the face-off, sir, otherwise you might just want to stop posting here altogether since your reviews will be worth nothing more than a red flag in a crowd of raging bulls.
so will we be seeing mr OAS versus sir BAMF,
strictly for educational purposes on December 18 at purple haze?
abangan ang susunod na kabanata. sir xelalien, labas ka pa ng popcorn.
