Lawrence, I am sorry if this has caused you regrets and never would have asked if I had considered this a possibility.LawrenceF wrote:I think people are taking these things - way - too personally.
I made a thread because someone asked me to. I don't personally care that much if people flood it with silly personal arguments, I only was passing along a request from another user. Why he didn't make the thread himself? No idea. Now that I see it has caused ill-will and is causing snide comments apparently directed at me, I regret doing it.
Anyway, reading various threads here today (Sonar, Bitwig, etc, etc) it seems something bad is just in the air, people getting personaly offended, angry, arguing, throwing really personal insults, etc, etc, over really nothing much at all.
Like I said last time I took a long break from all this madness ... "....and so ends my most recent foray ino KVR".I can only take so much of this place at a time and I think I crossed that threshold already.
I had explained my logic in that thread, now deceased. I felt a thread started by a member of higher status would possibly carry more credence than coming from a member of lower status. It's a hierarchy thing and one thing I have learned during my tenure at KVR.
It is a shame what we have witnessed, you are correct. Like you I have considered moving on but then I think there are a whole lot of people here willing to share their knowledge, expertise, kindness, etc., you among the foremost of those and many others too numerous to list.
As you know from previous posts I am all about learning. Can't get enough even at 62 years on this planet.
Please consider life has balance. Without madness there cannot be sanity. Without sorrow happiness will not exist.
Anyway, thanks again for making the attempt to bring happiness and sanity to this mad world here. Much appreciated friend.
BTW- lots of great conversation, questions and information in both threads now. In my opinion it was a great thing you did!
Happy Musiking!
