[kj] ) OT I love you to everyone...

It all goes to my ‘gathering’ folder…except those with ‘love’ or other
nonsense in the subject…straight to Junk Mail folder

The best idea is to open a free mail account dedicated only for The
Gathering. 
Can't wonder receiving all these mails in a Blackberry, is just nonsense.
But it also is to ask people to stop posting OT's that -in your own opinion-
are worthless, this issues have happened since almost the very beginning,
that's the best i can recommend, or maybe you can create a filter for you
mail account and send all the messages including [kj] to a single dedicated
folder. 

Just my two cents

Thought KJ were post-punk 



New wave was pre-goth and semi new romantic by my (addled) memory….

Well you are wrong there Alex, Killing Joke were part of the New Wave 

genre and not the Punk genre , so if you were to discuss the origins of New 

Wave, then that would have something to do with the impetus of this list , 

but sadly, discussing the origins of Punk is............OFF-TOPIC and 

nothing at all to do with this list . 

New Wave wasn't a continuation or Punk either, it was a reaction to it.

At least discussing the origins of Punk has *FUCKING SOMETHING TO DO WITH 

THE IMPETUS OF THIS LIST*

How can we know... 







I've been here since the 20th century ('98 or so..cassettes, glowsticks, 

Dee-Lite, 



raves, etc.) when Gatherers and gathering were over at UBL so I know for a 

fact these 



kinds of shenanigans and inanity have always (& in all ways) existed here, 

both read 



and written by everyone here,** and rarely ( as in, rarely) did anyone 

really object, even 



when it got bad (racism, personal attacks, pro-Bush opinions, etc.)... 







...and, it's hard (next to impossible,really) to tell when some thread will 

go off and really 



stray - until way after it's done so, so: 



where can we draw The Line? that is, without intimidating creative and 

free speech. Hm.. 



..how can we (individually) predict the future quality and future trajectory


of a given thread? 



Hm... I don't know. 







(and no i haven't forgotten that the number of Jokers here has at least 

tripled since KJ-2003, 



and that more and more people are accessing their internetss on the go thru 

laptops, 



cellphones, computers at work, Blackberrys, etc.) 







Something I find does work for me is that if i can trust the message 

titles to be in tune 



with the message, if people properly title their messages and change or add 

to that title as 



the subject/s of the messages change, then we can all feel confident in 

deleting [on sight] 



a thread of no interest. 



For example, I personally don't care about the "btats remasters" so i 

delete entire threads 



of it [no offense to those who do care for btats remasters], and when a 

title reflects a change 



in subject, that also helps me decide to read or delete. 







Also, and this is a long long shot, maybe if the board can be reformatted 

to show individual postings in sequential order, would that help? Because 

recently i've been getting lots of messages hours or even days after 

someone's posted it, or messages are posted twice (no not just Mel's). 







Anyway, my two cents' worth. 







** how many frekqin' times do we 



have to hear who started punk where? 



I rest my case. HYPERLINK

I have to chime in. Quick back n' forth nonsensical stuff like 95% of 

what's shown up here the past few days here really belong in someplace like 

IRC or some chat room. I'm all for off-topic posts but after 50+ 

one-sentence messages in a couple hour's time, it just becomes wasted 

bandwidth. I get all my mail mirrored on my Blackberry and it's a fucking 

pain in the ass to have to individually delete hundreds of useless posts 

that accumulate in just a day's time. And I'm sure I'm not the only 

subscriber that storing, deleting and sifting through junk e-mail is more 

than a simple matter of "skip what you don't want to read." 



Think of it as a simple courtesy to your fellow list members.
