Hi Pam and list I'm new too, so still learning the ropes of this list. I'm never sure whether it's more annoying to ignore a question if you don't know the answer, or to reply, sending the whole list a message saying you don't know. If everyone on every list did this, just to show they weren't being rude or unfriendly, we'd have mighty packed in-boxes. What's the politest thing to do, does anyone have a view? Cheers Amie

In case you have not been made aware of this by now, the Woodstock Commemoration was a radio program presented by Steve Matzura, a regular presenter and member of the ACB Radio Staff and this list. This was not spam. You may find notices of such ACB Radio programs on all channels, and because it is both computer and audio related it is appropriate to post here. I'm not scolding, just informing. Sometimes it may take a while to get an answer to a question but chances are that if you don't get one there isn't one or perhaps your request has gotten lost in cyberspace, which also happens given the nature of the Internet and the sometime foibles of listservs. As for the Facebook and other messages, unfortunately PC-Audio gets its share of unrelated postings, sometimes mistakenly sent by a poster who forgets to check the reply field before posting. The moderators are alert and attempt to stop inappropriate or off-topic messages wehn they occur but it's a tough job. You couldn't pay me to be a mod! <smile> I hope this explains a little and corrects any false impression you may have received from one spam and one misunderstood message on the day you joined. <smile> Pam -----Original Message----- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Ray Sent: Friday, August 14, 2009 2:24 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Woodstock commemoration Mathew, these Face Book invites are increasingly being seen on lists and in my personal messages - all from people I have no real link with or knowledge of. I think when people join FB it simply offers to link to their address book and so everyone gets a message. to my mind being a "friend" on Face Book is pretty meaningless. Yes, this list does have a lot of genuine traffic, so hold in here. Ray Matthew_2010 wrote: Just a couple of questions. I joined the list today and am wondering if this is a low, medium, or high traffic list. So far I've received 2 advertisements from facebook and some ACB Woodstock thing. I posted a question and didn't here back from more than a single individual. By the way, thanks for the hint as I raised my volume and looks like the volume in my recordings is also good. Hoping someone will respond with their experience on this list.
