Hey everyone, I just woke up, and you should all know that I'm now about to have a cup of tea and a jam dodger. :) I have to disagree though that Facebook isn't hugely responsible for this, because it's all about social networking with the people you know, and a good few that you don't, and fundamentally emphasises intimacy over content. In that respect, it's like a gigantic message board that you and your friends share, but for all the world to see. Twitter, at least for me, once you've got over the fact that there's an awful lot of dross on it, it's a simple matter of configuring your notifications and following list accordingly, to use it as an easy access communication tool. You can also use lists, to refine your own personal news bulletins, should the need be there (I have a list that I use exclusively for news that I want to read while I'm out, but fire up the main client while I'm home to pull in the lot and chat a bit). I consider my Twitter friends actual friends in the sense of sharing a common interest and outward personality, that's people I could deal with in real life, whereas F acebook's definition of "Friend" is just "Someone I associate with". Add Facebook's privacy invasions to the list, and it (and Google Plus, and all the others) are a definite no-no for me. I do wish more blind people were on Twitter, because it's a great way of getting the word out even if it's only 140 characters, but understand why they choose to refrain. I wish less of them were on Facebook. Cheers, Sabahattin --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message
Mailing lists and forums are just different, and serve different purposes. While I can confidently claim to prefer mailing lists for lots of technical reasons, and have on more than one occasion in the past declared my hatred of forums on this list, I strongly suggest people actually have a good poke around on forum.audiogames.net before dismissing the idea. It really is a nice, well-managed forum that is light on bloat, and in fact is very friendly to javascriptless, mobile browsers including most blindness note-takers. It's a great place to hang out when I have the time, and in fact I generally prefer to catch up there, due to the archival and organisational properties that are inherent to the forum. I have also set up a list specifically to reflect the forum postings back to me in email, so that I can follow in my email clients, which is very quick and convenient; once you've logged in at the forum, just click the link to reply to each incoming message, and you wouldn't notice you were using a forum at all. That list, for those who want the same treatment, is at: http://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector The main advantages of a mailing list are choices of email client, easy cross-participation in multiple lists, speed for the user in receiving and sending messages and robustness of the discussion against downtime or censorship. This latter is sadly less and less true as more people move to Google Groups or whatever, and also due to the spam filters of various brain-dead providers. The main advantages of a forum are generally better etiquette (especially where blindness lists are concerned, I find), intuitive archival and organisation of threads, centralised features such as voting or editing of posts, and a much lower curve to discovery and participation which leads to a broader base of contributions and a somewhat more relaxed attitude to off-topic discussion and community. Which one you prefer, or whether you prefer both, is so much about preference that trying to decide which is "Better" is unlikely to produce a useful conclusion for everybody. I also need to point out that s ome software now has the ability to gateway natively to mailing lists, which would mean that if people liked the interface, it would certainly be possible to support both forum and list simultaneously. Mozilla does this, offering NNTP, email and HTTP access to discussions, and it seems to work for them. HTH.

Re: [Audyssey] the value of a program - Re: ModeratorImportantMessage
Hi charlse. That might be true, but it just seems facebook is used far more for that sort of thing than E-mail, and also, when I last tried it, where as E-mail you can filter out the rubbish, faceiook your just shown a hole slue of things, most of which is! garbage, or at least trivia your probably not interested in unless your casually friends with that person in real life and care about their everyday existance or are interested in that subject. of course for sighted people who can skim read at a greater rate and thus can take in information quickly, acebook having a scattered interface matters less, but I found myself having to waid through aa bazillion friend requests and post from people about what time they get up before I found something interesting was quite a pest.

Hi Charles, True enough. It is not the technology at fault but how it is used. I admit even I tend to post things to Facebook etc that I would not put in an e-mail such as what I had for supper or that I am listening to a certain book. I've come to realize for most people Facebook is an informal form of communication and you can pretty much post anything you want to. Some of it is important, but most of it is worthless idle chatter. Cheers!

Hi. Look at it like this. I haven't been on the audyssey forum in years. I don't think to go out and navigate to a webpage and click my way through threads over coffee or anything like that.

Re: [Audyssey] the value of a program - Re: Moderator Important Message
Hi Charles, Well, sad to say that person is obviously a bonehead, because e-mail is not old fashioned or obsolete. Plenty of people still use it, and e-mail has to a large part replaced standard postal mail. Very few people send things by post, and those that do are usually bill collectors and advertisers. Most people send things like recipes, jokes, resumes, and so on via e-mail. There are plenty of e-magazines that post monthly subscriptions via e-mail too. Anyone who says e-mail is obsolete is an idiot. However, I know the type you speak of quite well. Back when I was in college I met more than a few people who would put people down for all kinds of things. I was often accused of being "old fashioned" because I didn't listen to the latest music, didn't wear the latest clothes, or whatever. They always struck me as insecure, because they had to show off to feel good about themselves and act like they were cooler and smarter than everyone else. In reality all they did was show off their utter stupidity to people who were a bit older and wiser than them. The thing is the people who have such biases tend to be younger people who haven't lived long enough to realize the world could care less how hip, cool, or up to date they are with technology. I like Facebook and Twitter myself, find advantages with social media, bud it is by no means a replacement for e-mail. I merely use the communication format which suits my needs at the time. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message
Hi Dark, Well, I certainly see the advantages and disadvantages of both which is why I put the question to the list. I like forums myself personally, but I also agree there are advantages to a mailing list that others prefer. Its not a question of right or wrong but simply a matter of preference. As I am all for preference I agree that keeping the list open as an alternative to the Audio Games forum is a good idea. Especially, since there are some people who absolutely dislike and refuse to use forums, but are quite happy with a list format. I have no problem with giving them what they want as I can use either one, and I see the advantages in a mailing list even if some people do not. Cheers!

[Audyssey] the value of a program - Re: Moderator Important Message
I know someone who was exclusively using Twitter and Facebook. He did not use Email because, quote, "It is old fashioned and obsolete. You should get with the times.", end quote. He wanted to have someone play some of his recordings in an Internet chat room for people to hear. Nobody could receive the files because nobody used Facebook or Twitter. He complained because he could not send them to anyone, and, finally, after this went on for about 6 months every week, he set up an Email account. Whether it might seem obsolete to the younger crowd, it is accessible to everyone, so is not something that should be done away with just because it has been around for a long time. What works works, and if it does work, don't discard it. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. - Original Message - From: "dark" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Sunday, November 17, 2013 9:27 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message Hi Tom.

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message
Hi Tom. That is true, though bare in mind just as you as list moderator need to monitor list traffic for ontopic subjects, equally I do spend a surprisingly large amount of my own time on audiogames.net booting threads into the right area of the forum, since some people have a habbit of getting things wrong however well you explain the categories and will post about random game ideas with no released information in new releases, or will ask about something to do with games in the offtopic room. As I said myself I see advantages and disadvantages both ways which is why in this case I do agree with the rest of the members that it's worth having both a forum (ie the audiogames.net one), and a mailing list (ie this one), available so people have the choice for one or either or indeed both! :D.

Hi Dark, Lol! That's funny. I just asked my dog to find a gremlin and she just lifted her head, gave me a doggy look, and went back to sleep. Either she doesn't know what one looks like or doesn't care. Its noon and probably near her nap time. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Draconis Releases DoItWrite 1.0
Bought the game earlier and wow it is very good indeed. This will certainly challenge me when learning to handwrite. I can handwrite after being encouraged to at school but it's squiggly at best. Also drawing on the screen is something relatively new to most of us I think. Well done guys and keep it up!

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message
Hi Dark, Well, I don't think mailing lists are old fashioned per say I just personally feel forums do have the advantage of supporting more members as well as being able to organize threads by topic. As you know on Audiogames.net there are different categories such as general, new releases, off topic, etc which helps separate things for the forum users. If a user has no interest in off topic messages he or she can go directly to general or new releases and never see the off topic messages. With a mailing list every post that is posted gets delivered to the end user which means someone like myself has to try and make sure each post stays on topic otherwise a list member could receive hundreds of junk messages that have nothing to do with games or this list. Even when a message is on topic a person is forced to receive a copy weather they have any interest in it or not where a forum gives a user more choice in what to read and not to read. So I think in that respect forums have their advantages, but I'm not going to set one up as it isn't what many list members want. Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message
On the other hand, it's far easier to step into a conversation mid way through with a mailing list. For example, lets say we were discussing dRaconis' new title, which a none Iphone user would obviously find a less interesting topic. Then however I could see this leading back to a discussion of analogue control, and uses of the mouse etc, and games like swamp, daytona or rail racer. Now, at that point if the subject line was changed to something like "analogue game control was: say it right game from Draconis" everyone lacking an Iphone could jump in without having to read the entire initial thread and every last response as would be the case on a forum. To me, it's very much swings and roundabouts. Beware the Grue! Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Moderator Important Message
Hi Tom. Well at least in britain, gremlin legends started as a way to explain the various faults and breakdowns experienced by plane pilots in the second world war. It started out as a bit of a joke, indeed when I was quite young I once knewa vicar who was himself a pilot during the war and used to tell myself and other childrenn Gremlin stories :D.. Then Rohald dahl, himself a plane pilot decided to write a screen play story based on that idea of Gremlins for Walt Disney in the mid 70's, albeit that had nothing to do with the later films you mention accept the name, albiet I do own both Gremlins films on dvd and rather enjoy them, as they were films I grew up with (I even used to have an audio book of the novelization read by none other than the most famous of all Doctor who actors, Tom Baker). It's actually still common in Britain, if there are lots of electric faults to say "oh we've got a gremlin" indeed this last weekend while I was staying at my parents my laptop had a user account error, (why I'm only just picking up my mail after getting back to my flat), my mum's video camera broke and! our sky tv box froze, so my mum said we must have a gremlin in the house, I even tried askking my mum's dog to find it, but she was a little confused, she did however go off runing around the house looking, so clearly Dogs know what gremlins are too :D.
