Hello folks,

Just back from self imposed lurkdom ... I suppose that Paul Jones may still be subscribed ... I can't say that I enjoyed the recent spat, but I can understand why folks got upset with the Manic Machine Products postings ... it's a varied community here & newbies are welcomed with open arms (hence some of the most active posters Brendan, Lennonka, Oliver, Melinda are all relatively new to this forum but are all respected for their contributions irrespective of their varied length of Killing Joke service) ... there is though a netiquette that exists in most places (especially on the handful of aviation lists I subscribe to) where people need to contribute before they put requests for information up, therefore I think Paul's approach was just plain wrong this time around. If had he re-introduced himself in a similar way to when this CD originally came out some 3 years ago, I am sure nobody would take offence at the selling angle (we all have to make a living) but I have seen a similar spamming approach on Myspace where some folks just keep putting multiple posts on their bulletin boards & all it serves to do is wind people up. If folks are genuinely interested, a single post will do ... the Red Beat compiliation CD album is great stuff ... I can understand why some here may now give it a miss but it contains the Malicious Damage 12" (MD4.40) so give it a thought ...
