Bravo indeed.
quoted 4 lines As for saying "We'll bump you off if you don't like our 'Warp/Aphex> As for saying "We'll bump you off if you don't like our 'Warp/Aphex > list-admin ass-kisser's fan club'" is really doing the members and potential > members a sad disservice by claiming a name so non-relevant to the real > agenda of "Floo & Chris' elitist Warp/Aphex masturbatorium".
Hehe. Firstly, Chris Hilker is not a listadmin, but a good friend with plenty to contribute. As I've said before, the list I wanted to create was originally going to be only for the works of RDJ and, therefore, you can expect a lot of RDJ talk on the list. As for this warp-centrism, I really dont understand where this attitude comes from. I know that there are a lot of people here who liked at least some or all of the series but if you've been here any length of time, you'd know we've talked about a million other things since our beginnings. Maybe you should read the archives..

Opinions and discussions are fine as long as they relate to IDM. I liked the nice [yawn] effect in that sentence by the way..

If holier-than-thou means reminding a few certain people that Lenny Dee and what-headshell-should-I-use-on-my-1200s threads are not appropriate then, good. Am I doing this for my own benefit? partly, yes. But im also looking out for the other 250+ people on the list who are here to talk about IDM.
