There is no dishonor in resigning...it is brave to do so. And it is respectful to others...it takes a bigger man to admit they are wrong or not able to change in light of things. That is also a commendable trait in a human. I am not saying you HAVE to, just cause I said so or IMPLIED it.

Sorry to say it, so far, most of the Mod Squad seems to be set on regarding Admin's as being right and that is it. Case Closed.

So far two factions, in disagreement and yet no compromise is being made. So, now we are basically fighting over the very same thing we were moderated for debating. LOL. Yet, let's face it...I think I have deleted at least "50" AU/VST diatribes over the past few days, coming in from the LUG. But hey, it is On Topic right?

I am one of the admin team simply because at a time when the LUG was 'messy' very few answered Jeremy's initial email asking for assitance. Jeremy sent out a further email to whihc I replied saying that I didn't consider myself a prominent member (tho I have been on and off the LUG since 96) but was willing to help out on an ad hoc basis when there is any need. I have no interest in moderating, and have never moderated, the L-OT. > a) One does have to be pliable when positioned with authority. huh? > b) One should question themselves, if viably questioned by others.

Sorry to > say it, so far, most of the Mod Squad seems to be set on regarding > Admin's as being right and that is it. Case Closed. This is not the case - the moderators have all talked about this and some of us are unclear (I include myself) as to the rôle of the L-OT. Hence the poll. Hence many of the msgs by moderators merely defending Jeremy's position as list admin. > I heard no admission of possibilities that indicate, that some of US > may be right in our views. You can't have been reading all the emails then. I have said that I have no position as to what the L-OT should be. Though I do have a philosophical position with repsect to the freedom of speech arguments put forward by others. It might be that u did not realise I was an admin. > None of the Admins here have said..."Hmmm, > Henrik, I think you have made the best case". Maybe if we thought he had we would have said so. > Get my drift. So far > two factions, in disagreement and yet no compromise is being made. Er ...

Some like to use expensive Royer ribbon mics on guitar cabs and others super cheap SM57s (the greatest mic ever). Having said this I must admit to finding MAC or PC evangelists for the most part the worst thing on the LUG. I have no problem with informed opinions and comparisons. > Think about it. Not really...sorry no. But I let > it go...cause this is the asylum of where that can take place. I think the problem, as astutely highlighted by Jeremy, is that some people think the L-OT is one thing and others another. Is the L-OT here to serve the LUG or have unlimited scope? I guess a decision will be made one way or the other. Alexis - hows about we just wait for the final outcome and abide by it? I for one don't care which way it goes. Tony Perretta

Yes, that definitely came to my attention, as well as the attention to the other admins. Which is why we created the poll, instead of specifically focusing the list on music related issues. I was referring to people suggesting other admins do not make a good moderator, should resign, etc. > Many of your replies to some valid arguments that have > been made are somewhat weak in my opinion, and (thus?) > spark even more reactions, etc, etc, ad nauseam. That's the problem: I was thinking the exact same thing about other people's replies. Obviously the group here is split nearly 50/50 on this issue. We are not all going to agree about this. > And then you go about saying that people who like arguing > have some sort of psychological disease. I don't think > I quite like that to be honest.

Honestly I don't care that much what you guys talk about here. If members hadn't started writing/complaining to the admins about things we would not have done anything. When people start bringing issues to my attention that make perfect sense to me (e.g. keeping this Emagic- related list focused loosely on music-related things only, but nothing that will always eventually start big flame wars such as politics) what can I do but reply to the constant barrage of argumentative posts people have been writing? In my opinion any time list members are offended enough to write to the admins or start unsubscribing in disgust, something is wrong. When a large number of members express a valid opinion but don't wish to argue about it repeatedly in public, I feel as if its my job as an admin to help express their perfectly side of this issue. If no one were to argue about this issue anymore I'd gladly wait for the poll to conclude in silence.. Jeremy

Go see this movie Bowling for Columbine by Michael Moore. It is a great documentary. I especially enjoyed the Charlton Heston interview and the Marilyn Manson interview. It has nothing to do with Logic or music, but it's really good. thanks Teddybut www.bowlingforcolumbine.com

five questions for jeremy . How did you get to be moderator on this list ? Do you get paid for being a moderator ? To whom are you responsible in an official sense ? Why are you being so friggin boring ? its like the alphabetical equivalent of an earnest but artistically empty funereal dirge ! To whom do we compain about the actions of the moderator ? you seem to have all the attributes of a born again on a mission from god , I'm sorry if that sounds a bit insulting but you just keep perpetuating it day in day out . I can only assume you want to kill the list off because another week of this and I'm definitely outta here too [hip hip hooray was heard in the background ,or was that the moaning of a desert wind] Paul

Thoughts from the mind of Jeremy Martin, 26-10-2002: > > And then you go about saying that people who like arguing >> have some sort of psychological disease. I don't think >> I quite like that to be honest. > >I was just joking, but still, some people don't seem to be able to >give this a rest and just wait for the poll to conclude. Maybe some people have given arguments as to why a poll is bound to be inconclusive or why the validity of the outcome might still be debatable. On the one hand you say this group is not a democracy but an oligarchy. Yet you use a democratic mechanism to determine list-policy. And at the same time this same democratic mechanism is bound to fail, for reasons explained earlier. Puzzling. And thus sparking more debate. Oh well... > > And then I'm even ignoring the fact that you seem to be >> as keen on an argument as the next guy... > >Honestly I don't care that much what you guys talk about here.

You could ignore them and simply refer everyone to the to-be outcome of the poll for example. But, as I said, you like a good debate as much as the next guy. I don't mind (to the contrary) -- but then don't go about offending "us argumentative types" as suffering from a disease, since you're not that different. Not at all. >If no one were to argue about this issue anymore I'd gladly wait for >the poll to conclude in silence.. I'll shut up. Fed up with all of this, and got better things to do than defend some right I think people have against moderators who think they know better, based on the opinion of a handful of complainers. I think it was Alexis who made a good point when he referred to some extremely boring discussions on the LUG: VST vs AU, etc, or the Mac vs PC debates being routed to the L-OT. Is any of those really on topic? A zillion VST/AU messages with extremely little informational contents? Or a PC/Mac debate -- is that L-OT stuff? Apparently it is, according to the powers in charge. No problem with that: as Dennis said, that's what you got a delete-key for. The problem is: where do you draw the border? At some arbitrary point, apparently. Because someone decides something is offensive. Or because someone decides something is not appropriate. Or because 3 or 4 members complain to the moderators. Or whatever. And it's this arbitrariness (?) that I protest against. -- Hendrik Jan Veenstra <h@...> Omega Art: http://www.ision.nl/users/h/index.html

You said to me...you agreed and stood by Orren's words...therefore by indicating that was your position. I know your an Admin, just as I know there is a Mr. Simpson, Orren Merton, YOU and Jeremy are Admins, though I don't really know the others.

Which made you seem like you made your decision. >> None of the Admins here have said..."Hmmm, >> Henrik, I think you have made the best case". > > Maybe if we thought he had we would have said so. Well, that depends. Are you looking at it from a position of being an Admin or looking at it as "objectively" removed from being either? That right there is what being in an authoritative positions is about. That is what WE are questioning...are U looking at this objectively? What is good for the collective, not the one. >> Get my drift. So far >> two factions, in disagreement and yet no compromise is being made. > > Er ... Jeremy has agreed to let the poll dictate the nature of the > list. What > more compromise would u propose? Again, all I see is Henrik in total frustration. I voted, yet there seems to be no resolution. Because now there seems to be a debate over what type of moderation and how to justify it. In one way it can be viewed as threatening the service of moderation, for lenient moderation. "well do you want me to protect you from spammers, then you have to do it my way." So to speak, that was an implied view I perceived. Or the fact, seemingly the vote of the "Freedom 8" who oppose, don't outweigh the "Mod Squad 7". That and because the other 592 members don't cast a vote, that vote goes in favor of the Mod Squad 7. We can all dispute the electoral vote. >> So, >> now we are basically fighting over the very same thing we were >> moderated for debating. LOL. > > This isn't a fight Alexis. You are just misintepreting the admin's > position > despite it seeming to be clear to me. You're right...to strong a word "fight". So, let me rephrase that.

But I certainly see, that neither have any of the Admin's see it fit for moderating the topic of AU/VST.

Actually, the problem is that those who think it one way are correct, with the intent for how L-OT was applied in the past. Other's can think to be deemed correct, but the intent of L-OT was NOT built the way they think it was. The original intent was to apply an asylum for the lunatics. That has always been my view of the L-OT. Why do you think I am here? LOL. Look, I can sit here and say..."I am offended by all the Apple/Mac hatred". I could have made great arguments for separating the lists too. Put PC here and Mac over there. But it often really came down to one thing...The PC and Mac People COLLECTIVELY and OBJECTIVELY realized the benefits of learning from the more experienced users wether Mac or PC. Like Henrik, is again a great example. A Mac user, teaching PC users about MIDI. He effectively adds to both user groups. Yet, I personally don't like Howie Wooten, and in certain cases he is wrong. But I don't expect the Admin's to gag him, based on my one opinion of him. Because he still offers some basis of knowledge to other users. I could effectively tear apart Howie Wooten in front all the Admins. Show his Bias, his misinformation, and demure like tactics of posing and opening debate. But I don't. I got better things to do, than sit around finding ways to gag him. One thing is for me to dislike him, the other is to gag him from his view, which entails that one day I would have to endure the same thing...LOL. Get my drift. I am careful to what I vote for, because one day, I just might get it. > Alexis - hows about we just wait for the final outcome and abide by > it? I for > one don't care which way it goes. Well if you don't care "which way it goes", then why say anything at all. Again you wrote: >>> My views align entirely with his - so maybe we should both resign. Where are you...to me, it seems you're now wavering. Where as before you made your position quite clear. Now, you tell me one thing, then you tell me another. Hey, that is okay man, I am not trying to demean ya...but effectively, right now you're just unclear in your position. I think you originally set out to instinctually protect your buddy Orren. But some how, by saying "you don't care which way it goes" is implying to me: Then why say anything at all? Peace, Alexis

They didn't do that, so were stuck here voting on a one sided poll. If they want to be democratic about it and have a poll, at least they should include an option for keeping the OT-list how it is and moving the complainers. That way it would be a less one sided poll, seemingly favoring the complainers, who certainly also have a right to be accomodated. It makes more sense to me that way. Why have a list soley devoted to L-Politics when there are so many very off topic things being discussed here that the complainers are offended by? When the music theory, university choice or PC vs Mac wars come up, they can go where they have always gone without making a new list for EVERY topic not related to DAWs. Like I said: what's next a poll about a new L-OT-laundry detergent list? so do you guys and gals like Coke or Pepsi. teddybut

Hello Alexis Your thrust seems to be that you think my views and those of Orren cannot coexist. I find them wholly congruent but have no desire to reiterate them. I was trying to supply some clarity not provoke you - clearly I failed. You will find that Jeremy posted a number of msgs directly to the LUG regarding the recruitment of administrators. Furthermore I think this list is a dogmatic nightmare with limited potential. I was looking forward to insights regarding stuff deemed too OT for the LUG and am duly unsubscribing. Good luck to all Tony Perretta

Cause I can complain, bitch and moan like an anal probe...but does my one complaint outweigh the majority? Does this mean you have to waver and compromise just for me? > When people start bringing issues to > my attention that make perfect sense to me (e.g. keeping this Emagic- > related list focused loosely on music-related things only, but > nothing that will always eventually start big flame wars such as > politics) Uhm...there was pretty much an ongoing debate...I didn't really see much in the way of insults...I saw a pretty healthy debate. But yes, it did get a little messy later on. > what can I do but reply to the constant barrage of > argumentative posts people have been writing? In my opinion any time > list members are offended enough to write to the admins or start > unsubscribing in disgust, something is wrong. Well Neo Nazi's and white supremist groups recently demonstrated in the streets of Washington. Does that mean that because I am offended I have to unsubscribe from the USA, in disgust? Should I just pack it up and move to Bali, and take my chances there? Or maybe, I will moved to France, at least there are plenty of places a person can SMOKE. Funny thing how people here in Los Angeles, bitch and moan about people even smoking outside on the outdoor portion of cafe. Yet don't realize the "Acceptable Emission Levels of Carbon Monoxide" coming from the cars driving by. Then after being offended by the Smoke...They get back into a Gas Guzzling SUV, and talk on the Cell phone while driving. Yet, the true question evades their mind...is the toxic pollution caused by 4 million smokers, 32 million vehicles pouring onto Los Angeles streets everyday? Some using MTBE treated Gasoline. Hey...I get offended when people drink alcohol to get drunk. Does that mean I should vote in favor of Prohibition, just cause I am offended by drunkards? Or do I just ignore those I don't like, and let those I do like have drink once in while? At least I have the option of picking the good apples, from the bad ones. Again...One thing is being politically correct, the other is being so politically correct it is overtly anal and not realizing ones own hypocrisy. For every gag order one calls to arms with, is eventually a gag order that comes back to haunt you. In other words...we can't protect everybody from debate or what is offensive. You have just tell them...sorry that is the rules of this list, you just have use the delete key. We apologize for the inconvenience. Peace, Alexis

I´m on win xp pro and it´s a desktop with 2 IDE busses. Standard setup on a PC these days: system = primary master Audio = secondary master Older versions of MS operating systems would only boot from the primary master I believe but XP may be more flexible. At one time putting non-DMA CD drives on the same channel as a DMA hard-drive could slow down the drive but these days everything is DMA and mixing CD drives and hard-drives on the same channel is no problem.

I just prefer to do my debating (and talking about politics) on lists I'm not an admin of. I guess I'm odd, but actually I prefer to do that sort of thing privately, where I think it belongs. > I think it was Alexis who made a good point when he referred > to some extremely boring discussions on the LUG: VST vs AU, > etc, or the Mac vs PC debates being routed to the L-OT.

Now that Emagic is owned by Apple, it makes sense to let people ask their questions here about the new plugin format that Emagic is promoting. If you check the archives, it looks like the whole Mac vs PC thread (actually entitled Cubase SX Crossgrade question) was started by an innocent question, posted here by Paul Stephenson by his own free will. We have never redirected OS wars to this list as far as I know. Paul Stephenson > The problem is: where do you draw the border? At some arbitrary > point, apparently. Because someone decides something is offensive. > Or because someone decides something is not appropriate. Or > because 3 or 4 members complain to the moderators. Or whatever. > And it's this arbitrariness (?) that I protest against. Of course we have to have use an arbitrary point. If we had no rules at all, "as this list approaches infinity" a never ending flamewar is bound to happen, eventually. I don't think you want us to not use an arbitrary point - I think you'd rather we just used your own (arguably less) arbitrary point, instead of ours.

Sorry , I didn't read this one closely other than to put it on the list of things to catch up with some time . Is it right that it is a documentary [?] and it starts with a bank that gives out shotguns to new customers ... oh come on ..surely not . Glad to hear they got the sniper ,that was frightening shit for you Washington guys . I'm thinking of getting into the 21st century and getting a dvd player . The problem is the formats . Is DVD A going to be common ,as I understand it only Warners are releasing in that format ,will it spread , and what about super audio cd's . I dont want to end up with a sony beta like machine where everything I want to seehear is in another format . Wasn't region coding a good idea !!! Paul
