    What exactly does managing servers entail, I haven't the foggiest? But I'm curious to know if you have time to explain K.

    I'll figure it out Chanty, I do appreciate all those who continue to donate, but it's still becoming more of a chore to manage the servers then anything else so the fewer machines I have to manage in the backend, the easier it will be.

    I think threehills has the best idea! I'd totally be willing to donate money to keep the archives on MS. It really is something special and it would be a huge shame to see it go.

    What do you say Kamal...give us the option to donate for the specific purpose of keeping the archives?

    Maybe it's best I finally shut down the site so that this incessant "I can pee farther than you can on the internet" mindset that seems to have crept into the boards will dissipate. 10 years has been quite the run and I have enough on my plate and enough worries of keeping this place running (financially) that I need to have to come here and watch this crap go on time and time again, especially from the mature veterans. Very sad to see this place wither to bits like this.

    "we'll get a room where no one can find us, nobody calling up on the phone" lyrics are something like that

    Can you actually explain how I "just had to bring it back up"? I just actually quoted what I actually read. If you'd already actually edited it I wouldn't have been able to actually quote, would I?

    As if I wouldn't look after Hernan As long as I live and breath you will have access to Hernan's shows and sets, even from the nursing home

    Btw, it's not the forum that is threatened at this stage , it's the archives, like all the old metrodance shows. Everything in the forum is stored uploaded outside MS .

    Hernan brought me here in 2004.

    Another btw , you are not stupid for not knowing web stuff, I bet if your life depended on it you would learn very quickly It's what we want to do that is important.

    I am very simple: here for the music, nonsense and tv/ movie reviews.

    Politics is mainly American along with the sport.

    My search for more downloads of Hernan mixes lead me to MS in 2007 and I stayed around cause it was a great forum to listen to and read all the discussions and threads.

    So to see the Hernan forum go will be like a little piece of history in me dying inside so I hope it doesn't but I have no idea what the results are if they stay for MS and the continuation of the site will be because of it (Thats how stupid I am when it comes to websites and the development thereof.)

    Its still my favourite site.

    Feather, You do realise that most of our posts won't be read because they are way too long It's just you and me

    ^^^ Yeah, you probably have a more sensible attitude than some of us. We do take it too seriously. But we are what we are.

    The disrespected etc remarks from me were more generic rather than specific, but from what I read superwave gave as good, or better , than he got

    Read what I wrote above. I tried to be nice, some of you read my original post before I decided why make it so personal



    Tell you what, why don't you maintain and update it? Why don't you compile Resident show write ups and upload tagged MP3s while you're at it?



    I'm sorry DD, this is where you just sound like you're arguing for the sake of it.

    Why do I need Cloud Flipper if I've never thought enough of Soundcloud to visit before? Huh?

    In the 21st century, I only have FOUR consistently open tabs in my browser. I access a lot of sites via RSS, I keep updated on Twitter. I subscribe to art blogs, industry news, technology news, manga, TV, music blogs, music download sites, AND NOW SOUNDCLOUD, so everything is easily perused in my Google Reader.

    If you use RSS you'll understand how convenient it is. It's because you don't appreciate the convenience and you expect THE REST OF US TO USE THE WEB AND MS LIKE YOU DO, AND PROJECT YOUR OWN EXPECTATIONS ON TO US, that you find so many of the cool stuff on MS (and facebook for the matter) extraneous.



    'Most' being Chunky and? Cos you know as well as everyone else I copy/paste/edit more than anyone else in the booby thread

    The WYSWYG editor can be flaky but it's not entirely the fault of MS. This is what happens when you copy formated content from another site. This is what happens too if you tried to copy formated content from any source, into a word processor like Word. This is just WHAT HAPPENS.

    I get around it pasting formated content into the MS editor, Select All, click Remove Format (second button from the top menu), and reformat the content using the MS editor.
    Answered like a true nerd You have just proved another point of mine. You shouldn't have to do that all that !! We shouldn't even have to know what an WKSWYGn editor is, we are here for the music .

    I'm not asking for anyone to give up their nerdy bits, I just don't want them shoved down my throat . The ability for individuals to turn them off, would be great. [like facebook ] You use it the way you want, I use it the way I want, simple really. I'm really good at finding, recording, uploading, downloading music. That's the web I love. It's great that you get a kick out of all this stuff, I don't. That's what it is all about, we each take what we want.

    The old "Well why don't you do it line" I don't do it because I don't want to ! I want to spend my time on the things that are important to me. Plus there are soo many people who could do it wonderfully. Perhaps you ?? But I do expect that if someone else claims they can do it, that it be done properly. I really forward to using the DJDB when it first started. Unfortunately there is nothing for me there.

    Btw, it is not "nice" to write mean posts and then expect that taking them down makes it all better


    Sorry but can't help this

    I'm sorry DD, this is where you just sound like you're arguing for the sake of it.
    Pot, kettle black ??? Although I prefer to call it debating

    One thing that has come from this discussion for me is that I really want MS to survive. I didn't think I did .It has made me look around and see just what is here and there is a lot that I don't utilise and would probably benefit from. It has been a very important part of my life at various times . I have made real friends here. I think we need to look at the big picture here, ask ourselves what we do want from MS and maybe help in getting that. But that is going to take a lot of listening from all of us.

Being nice can be difficult it you feel disrespected, ignored, unappreciated, [ask sbando ] unable to freely express an opinion . When I first started posting here we had some incredible discussions. Most of the time they didn't turn in the this!! They did sometimes, but that is part of life, ignoring it very obviously doesn't make it go away.
    Guessing Superwave has some stories to tell about being disrespected, ignored, unappreciated, unable to freely express an opinion

    Agree with you but as much as i love this site, really i donīt take it that serious.. No need to make discussions go away, they can stay where they are forever until another new quality OR stupid thread is posted

    And we know this because the punishment for losing is being forced to adopt "zed" into the language. Bit of a revolutionary war joke, went over a lot of people's heads, but that's how it all began.
