David Ayers Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Mods - would you mind unpinning all but the most essential threads (if any)? Such as this one From my phone at least these often dead threads are always near the top. Why does any thread need to be pinned? Certainly makes things untidy for me.

Jim Alfredson Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Not sure why that thread was pinned. Any others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good stuff, just didn't seem to need to be pinned. If you want it pinned, it's OK by me. One more: There are a bunch of other threads along this line that are not pinned.

It's good stuff, just didn't seem to need to be pinned. If you want it pinned, it's OK by me.That's not the point. My Blues/R&B list the thread was about was removed for several reasons, so there no longer was a topic; that's why I said it could be deleted.

David Ayers Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 With no disrespect to anyone, does this thread need to be pinned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 With no disrespect to anyone, does this thread need to be pinned? I agree, this project has come to nothing. Pity, it looked promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neveronfriday Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) With no disrespect to anyone, does this thread need to be pinned? I agree, this project has come to nothing. Pity, it looked promising. Why to nothing? That's a very strange comment (that I didn't see before). a) I have 54 discographies of out-of-print Mosaic boxed sets and Selects online, b) they have been online without interruption (I just didn't add any for quite a while), c) and continue to be available? For free. I absolutely agree that the thread does not have to be pinned, but ... ? P.S.: They now reside on deus62.com but have always been available on the other site linked to (and still are, but are redirected to the new site).

My assumption that the project had died was justified in my view, the more so since you didn't reply to my e-mail. Edited January 2, 2014 by J.A.W.

neveronfriday Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) My comment was not so strange, regarding the first post in this thread: (I was still a moderator at the time) and also your posts there. My assumption that the project had died was justified in my view, the more so since you didn't reply to my e-mail. I guess it was a misunderstanding then. "Inactive" does not mean "gone". A simple click could have confirmed that. I guess the "has come to nothing" phrasing was what bothered me. There was quite a bit of work that went into those.Doesn't matter! They're still around for those interested (I don't keep statistics beyond a few months, but 11200 downloads since September of 2013 ... mostly by those asinine pirates, I would think. Although I used to block just about every rip-off site, I have given up. They multiply like fungus. That's why, at least, I haven't uploaded any cover scans or the like. Let those asshats find those for themselves). Edited January 2, 2014 by neveronfriday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Ayers Posted January 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Actually I did check your original site - not the one you now list - and the redirect you mention has only now appeared dated January 2 2014. At that site the discographies had already been removed so it was reasonable to conclude that the project had ended. Perhaps this thread can now be unpinned in any case?

At that site the discographies had already been removed so it was reasonable to conclude that the project had ended. Perhaps this thread can now be unpinned in any case? a) The discographies were never removed and have been available non-stop (minus 56 minutes in 2012, as my provider's logs tell me). b) Isn't it unpinned? It should be. Without looking at it right now, the whole thread can probably be deleted. Note: Yes, the redirect was implemented on January 1st (not 2nd) to not have two sites online. Until that very moment, the discographies resided where they had always been (and still do, but the page will redirect you. It's a Google thing, to keep the "juice").

king ubu Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Frankly, I'd rather have the - most useful! - Mosaic discography thread pinned and some of those threads that come up on top always unpinned (what are you listening, best song you heard ...)
