It's terrible that a listmember doesn't feel like he or she doesn't have anything to offer the list. This whole exchange between aaron/biostream and others concerning recording gear got me a little steamed. It bothers me when people feel the need to flame others who aren't experts in something. It leads to the opinion aaron voiced just now; drawing the conclusion that he doesn't feel like he has anything to offer the list. The more knowledgable producers and djs on the list should offer more positive advice and opinions instead of shitting on someone [and subsequently starting a flame] because they don't know the whole story. The signal to noise ratio on the list is getting a bit too close for me to handle... g.

I totally agree with you here, but I think we just have to accept it. I've been signed to mailing lists for 6 years now. It always has been the same, and it always will be. It's a social problem really. I think the best aproach is to ignore it. If a thread becomes too cumbersome then kill it ( mailreader with threading is *very* important for large volume mailing lists ). One thing I learnt a long time ago is to back out of a discussion that's degenerating. People either see your point or they don't. This isn't good or bad, it just is. I think most people who sign to lists/post to usenet learn this eventually. -hjw Chaos is found in the greatest abundance wherever order is being sought. It always defeats order, because it is better organised. - Ly Tin Wheedle
