Perhaps we could be assigned some individual responsibility to help pull some of this together.
For example, I would accept an assignment to look at some of the threads I've started for things I actually know something about
: Performance Series, L Series (1990s), SVA Series. Then I could be responsible for searching the entire forum for tidbits and pieces here and there, bring those bits together, and acutally collate and summarize the parts that really matter.
Those parts would contribute to the advancement of the forum's knowledge base and flush all the bullshit and humor out of the new, locked Performance Series Super Thread, which would be the real trove of knowledge.
All the original threads would still be intact and available for archival purposes, but unless somebody needed to find an old insult or smart-ass comment, there wouldn't be much point in going in there. Everything that mattered would be in the PS Super Thread.
If someone has a new angle or bizarre idea to discus about the Performance Series, then, fine, start a new discussion thread on that topic, and if it generates anything useful, it could be summarized, linked, and added to the PS Super Thread by whoever is in charge.
JBL has a boatload of products, but we tend to focus on many of the same ones over and over. Once we got our main Super Threads in place, a lot of the reptition would disappear.
Plus, I'd love to have a locked L100 Super Thread where there wouldn't be any space for
certain people to take cheap shots.
I think a lot of us, given the privilege of supervising the content of a locked Super Thread about our favorite speakers, would do a hell of a job keeping the place neat and tidy, yet at the same time be constatnly on the look out to add substantive new information to the knowledge base.
