Please tell me you're not dissing the original BSG.  That show is one of the classics of a American TV history.  Not to say I don't love the new one, but, c'mon.  The new one would not exist if it weren't for the first.

This crossed my mind regarding the old site, which expires in January, right?

I could easily live without the new one if it would erase all past memories of the orginal.

The original was fantastic! I just block out that Galactica 1980 ever existed, but the 1st season was highly entertaining.

Getting back on topic...

We need flatty's equalizer thread.  Not only did it 'splain what an equalizer /did/, but gave some good defaults to start your own customization.

I think it already has been moved here if the below link is what you're referring to.

Yep, that's it.  Weird, I did a quick search for it, and couldn't find it (either in the forums or mentioned in this thread).  My search-fu is lacking, I guess.  :-/

I agree, as I think we've gotten most of the regulars (though we should keep looking), and then a redirect would only send the real spammers here.
But the old site was a support resource too, not just a hang-out. Unless the new site is going to be easy to find, easy to sign up for, and easy to post to by non-regulars, it'll fail at being a support resource. So FWIW I vote for a redirect. The problem with the old site wasn't the "real spammers", it was the admin account getting pwned. Without that, the spammers wouldn't've mattered.

good point.  so the question really is, do we want to continue to be a support resource, or are we just here to hang out? 

I'd vote for the former.  other thoughts?

I think it would be best if we continued to be a support resource.  Also, I think this place could use a little trolling and spam, it'd make it a little more lively.
:nuts:
Then again, I can see the other side of things.
I don't think I can stay here anymore

Could compile all the information and just have a minimal site with all the old info that we could put together.

I've got all the firmwares (official and otherwise), drivers, and RMM's I could grab off rioaudio.com floating around on this machine somewhere. I had fully intended to put together a little website for 'em...

I think that's an excellent idea.  And I think we still need this forum itself to be a support resource for non-regulars to drop in and ask questions.  Especially once people start to realize this Vibez thing is has the heart and soul of a Rio.

Whether we do a redirect or not, I don't know.  But we should be letting other folks know such as at DAPReview, HeadFi, etc.  Besides, people will start finding us anyway thanks to Google.

hey guys.
thanks for having me again.
thanks to n00b and krazykit for the tip.

i dunno if the 1000 things about the karma is worth looking into if it's not here already. the link is included in rio karma wikipedia.

i pm'd cphrawg and one of the threads i miss was pond's thread about hitachi hard drive specs and his experience with a 30gb hd in terms of performance, 'cause it was deleted.

anyone saved it? if not, i'll breakdown the HTC426030G7AT00 codes for newbies in search of the right drive, if you agree it's important.

[EDIT] forget it. found it. good one fifer. still catching up with the threads.
