Re: (313) Namecalling is Bullsh!t
The problem is that the continued existence on this list depends on a certain level of mutual respect. I don't know what got put in everybody's food, but people have been way too salty lately. This is supposed to be a mailing list about Detroit Techno, and as such it has historically been a positive force to promote the music. How many heard a few records that became crucial to them, and then found out there was an E-mail list that they could go to for discussion and education on that topic? How many people have formed lasting relationships based around techno because of this list? Would someone coming along in the past 2 weeks see any of that? When things get ugly, things are off course. I'm just this guy who volunteered to administer the list, but I'm a believer in preserving it as a place for positive, substantive discussion. If you've been reading for the past few weeks, you know I don't say anything as Mr. Admin until things cross a certain line. It isn't easy to judge when to step in, so I just do it when it feels like it has to be done. Believe me, judging from my private e-mail, there would be support for me being much more pro-active, and banning people. It shouldn't be like that. And, speaking to those of you who seem to think that they're doing people favors by 'telling it like it is' and 'keeping it real': you aint. Whatever valid points you have, whatever your opinions are, being salty and abusive just negates them. Anything real you have to say, you could say better without being bitches. Do y'all think for a minute you're unique individuals, whose brilliance and insight puts you above the normal rules of civil discourse? Nah, you're just haters, and I got tired of that crap in 1987 on Usenet News. A bunch of cranks working out their frustrations on the Internet. There's nothing unique about you -- you're just members of the bummer demographic. Figure out how to stop being thwarted, bitter people in real life and leave 313 the hell alone.

The problem is that we've all got the list archives available to us (here's a hint -- they go back to 1994, so you can imagine how fresh all these flame threads are), and with a little judicious application of regular expressions and copy and paste, we are all quite capable of completely reproducing these latest threads, without the slightest bit of conscious thought.

Re: (313) Namecalling is Bullsh!t
I think the important thing to remember (somewhat similar to what Kent said) is that all of this posting is archived and there may be a time in the future when we look back in hindsight at some of our posts (that maybe we shouldn't have posted) and wished we hadn't posted 'em. Personally, my big shouldn't-have-happened is when I was doing my syndicated radio/net show and got pissed off at Javier Drada because I felt I had premiered something on my show that he said he was premiering on his show. At the time I was pretty fired up about it, but soon after in hindsight I realized it was a pretty foolish thing to give a damn about though I think I kept this to myself and never made it public. So, Javier, if I never apologized for being an ass about that then, please consider this an apology. I think far too often, and not just on this list, on forums, and other forms of cyberspace, we don't a) think should I really bother to post this before posting and b) apologize for our hastiness after we post something we realize maybe we shouldn't have posted. Ditto for in outside-cyberspace life. Being married has made me realize that one of the most important things you can do is be the person to apologize first even when perhaps the other person should have been the one doing the first apologizing.

RE: (313) Namecalling is Bullsh!t
Not directly related to the current discussion, but after 11 years or so, I'm un-subbing too. The signal to noise ratio has got out of hand lately and to be honest, there hasn't been a Detroit techno record that's got me excited much in the last couple of years anyway. I've kept an eye on the list for news on new stuff I should check out, but I have to sift through too much rubbish to find any of that info these days and I don't have the time for it.

Relying on the header is insufficient. Frequently people will change the subject line. You must really set a filter on the In-Reply-To: header but unfortunately this list does not support that.

It doesn't take long to scan to see if it's worth your while reading - hell, I get up to 400 emails a day on work matters and not all are relevant - I've got quite skilled at skimming for relevance :) -Original Message- From: Matt Kane's Brain [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 06 September 2006 13:35 To: Robert Taylor Cc: chthonic streams; 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) Namecalling is Bullsh!t Relying on the header is insufficient.

It's unfortunate that a few should occasionally spoil it for many. On the other hand, I would suggest a little perspective. Things are usually sedate, reasonable, and dare I say it, they can be on relatively rare occasions, a little boring round here. There is a happy medium - I'm not going to call it, but I'm sure there is one. You could even suggest that the solution, when this sort of things happens is *not* to unsubscribe, but rather to claim the list for one's own. Be the voice of reason or overwhelm those who sometimes go off at a negative tangent, with communications which have a positive tone.

RE: (313) Namecalling is Bullsh!t
Let's put it this way, you're not causing the problem, Dale. Others may want to check their own sh`t out, however. fh - Was I namecalling? I can't remember. Apologies if any of my messages had more noise than signal.
