You know Spaw,
what really gets up my nose istha we have had some excellent threads lately of ALL types and the balance seems to be excellent, so I'm loathe to bring this up, but I just listened to the songs that Michael K. had posted (which are EXCELLENT BTW) and there are very few posts on the thread. When I saw the file size, I traced the thread so that later, when I had time to download, I could come back. But this brings up something else that does bother me and I know I'm not alone.

This happens on EVERY TYPE OF THREAD. Someone asks a question, ie., What album is some song on?....and within the first couple of posts, someone answers the question. Then maybe a few or more others come along and a discussion follows. Good so far. Then along comes someone else who posts the same answer as already given and adds nothing to the discussion.....obviously never bothered to read the rest of the thread. On BS threads, its more obvious that some could give a crap less about what anyone else has to say, just gotta' give us their opinion.

This place is about opinions, but I feel I owe it to the other posters on the thread to at least read what they have to say. Michael K. put a lot of work into those recordings. Why not just trace the thread and download when you have time? I think some have bypassed it when they saw the download size, and unlike the other threads, they can't just skip over and throw out their "words of wisdom." I have read on numerous occasions this line: "I don't have the time to read all the rest of this, but HERE is what I think!" Even without the line, at times its obvious that the poster has not read the thread. This is really aggravating in some of the heavier discussions. To me, this type of thing is the real definition of compulsive posting.

Im gonna have a Pepsi and get back to you...
