If you can't... well... Draw your own conclusions... Joe Offer was RIGHT Nothing more needs adding |

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, if they are willing to stand by them.

19 Jul 01 - 03:55 PM (#510648) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: Hawker I'd just like to say a BIG thank you to Mousetheif, Kat/Katlaughing and WYSIWIG - and anyone els that applies, I KNOW there are loads of you - too many to mention - who have all helped me in the past with a music thread of one sort or another, and in other more deep and meaningful ways, not necessarily directly to do with music, but certianly the ethos of this site, and the companionship which like minded people can give to each other. Not ashamed or afraid to state my name, Lucy |

More importantly What is the reason for the overt hostility? What did they do to you? |

Thanks, KatwhomIhopeisreading, WYSIWIG, and most especially my dear Mousethief. And RobDale, great song! Add some verses, everybody! |

19 Jul 01 - 04:21 PM (#510692) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: GUEST,Karen Personally as a named Guest I find it odd that unnamed Guest feels "crap" as he/she defines it has no place on the Forum but unkind insults directed at other members is okay by him/her. Interesting set of ethics there. My only beef with mousethief is that he sweetly offered to make me dinner ages ago (beef stroganoff, I believe it was) and never came through! Just because we live in different states is no reason to renege, Alex. P.S. I truly wish nasty members who feel obligated to "share their feelings" with the rest of us would stop posting under the "Guest" moniker. It gives us real Guests a bad name. |

19 Jul 01 - 04:37 PM (#510711) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: mousethief Um, you're welcome, Leej, I think. It is the job of the citizen of a democracy to have an opinion on every topic. Of course it is better to be well-informed than otherwise. I can only read so much, so fast. But I never pretend that I'm infallible; I have learned a lot here at the Mudcat Café on all sorts of things (even music!) and have even had my mind changed on some issues; which may not have happened if I hadn't stuck my foot in my mouth in the first place. (Nor do I hide behind anonymity.) Alex |

19 Jul 01 - 05:11 PM (#510715) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: GUEST Call me a flamer, call me a troll even call me the worst of insults A GUEST The fact remains, the forum is being over-run by non-music threads. And No I'm not gutless just because I don't bother to register as 'wanker5' before I post . There's non so blind as will not see |

19 Jul 01 - 05:31 PM (#510726) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: mousethief Don't like non-music threads? Start a music thread. It's pretty simple. I think you meant there's "none" so blind. Alex |

19 Jul 01 - 05:37 PM (#510732) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: mousethief the forum is being over-run by non-music threads. And so the solution, Guest/Wanker5, is to start another? You never answered my questions. How many lyrics have you found? How many melodies have you supplied to MMario? All we've seen from you so far is flaming/trolling. Of course we can't know for sure because with you hiding behind "Guest," we don't know which other posts are from you and which are not. Alex |

19 Jul 01 - 07:01 PM (#510771) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: gnu Guest... non-music threads about politics, ideologies, sex, crap, yes, even CRAP, lead to discussion, ideas, interpretations, just fun... and sometimes to music, as seen above. Sometimes, it's just killing time. Don't kill our good time - it's a waste of yours. Stay on the absolute music threads if these other threads offend you or start your own site where you can be the ruler of all you purvey. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, fuck off.

Wanker what do you think life is about, pulling other people down? because they do things, not the way you wanted them done. You are a pathetic piece of JETSOM, I feel sorry for you. Do you have any goal in life I doubt it. The rest of us will stay pathetic together and enjoy what we do. Cobble. |

21 Jul 01 - 01:49 PM (#512048) Subject: RE: A Challenge: Mousethief, post something From: GUEST,SharonA at the Library No, I'm NOT the anonymous GUEST (could you tell?) Sorry about the prefix to my name, but my machine is off-line at the moment. To anonymous GUEST: I don't know if I'm one of "the rest" you refer to as only posting "crap", but just in case... I'm a newbie (started as a GUEST myself a month or so ago) but FYI I did start a Tune Request thread (asking for obscure ballad tunes in common meter to go with lyrics I had written); I've also posted comments to several threads on the subject of music, and have made some contributions to the SONG CHALLENGE!s. Oh, and I've made an appearance on Mudcat Radio. That's it so far, but I certainly plan to do more as time goes on! SharonA |
