If this happens to anyone else, itâs because a new iPad on latest and greatest iOS, even when restored with an old profile from iCloud, turns off the ability for the Roon app to see devices on the network because reasons. Now sorted.

Well thatâs me out of the Roon loop, they did refund my subscription though so that was nice of them.
Banned for making a joke that the old name for Roon was âSooloosâ is the same as how I describe my ex (although technically I got banned for calling him a jumped up little cunt)
For example, making comments about the sexual promiscuity of ones ex-wife may have been acceptable in the past (even if a bit awkward), is now worthy of âcancelationâ

Sir should know that the support forum for network audio bloatware is no place for humour.

Damn, at least if you were trolling there you left other places alone.
They banned me a week ago. Theyâve gone full circle-jerk.
You were correct in your summation. Danny Dulai is a jumped-up little prick.
What the fuck? I know that it is all a bit like a watered down version of the old Linn or Naim forums but I didnât see you trolling folk there. Did you dare to blaspheme against the truth that is Roon?
A few of them who are either very influential or moderators or both and have had a massive hard-on for me for ages.
They donât like their MQA bullshit being called-out, and their CTO Danny is a fucking wet wipe.

You going to head over to pfm then? Looks like a nice quiet MQA thread to dip into there.
No, honestly I donât have the energy for it. I only got involved again recently because them wankers at Tidal are removing all the PCM on the platform so if you donât want decode MQA you have no choice but to have a 12-bit Waitrose mp3 shoved down your gob.
It was the removal of choice that wound me up.
If someone wants to contribute to Bob Stuartâs pension fund of their own free will, thatâs their prerogative.

Ah. I noticed that they were getting a bit miffed about that. We had a family discussion about ditching TIDAL for Qobuz recently. Two things stopped me (i) I canât be arsed to rebuild my library (or use a service to do the job) and (ii) the kids use the TIDAL subscription more than I do.
I find the whole Roon Forum a bit weird as it seems to be 95% fanbois and 5% hating moaners with no middle ground. I guess they decided to clean house after the Roon 1.8 moanathon debacle. Seems all a bit precious to me really.
You jest but I got a formal warning for blaspheming.
On a cable thread I wrote âChrist do dealers still use those BS sales techniquesâ
I initially though the post was flagged for swearing (BS) but no it turned out it was blasphemy.

That is fucking brilliant. Kudos.
Sinner!
they set a policy that you can only make one post per day in MQA threads and if you post the same negative comment more than once youâll be suspended.
Thereâs a few undercover moderators that donât have the badges.

Yeah, thereâs a bloke called JimF. Heâs a big prick and basically just went around flagging and hiding my posts for the hell of it.

Think Iâm going to steal thatâŚ
Ha ha fucking excellentâŚso tempting now to dream up an old fashioned cuss and get done by those puritanical arseholes.
Iâll just say it here MQA is total snake oil, rip-off bullshit.
Sigh, I love this place.

Roon core has been running on my Macbook for over a year with no problems and using ipad as remote, again stable.
Since last week the remote canât find the core, I have done fresh installs on both devices, remote is enabled in settings and they are on the same network.
Any suggestions appreciated.
