JSngry Posted October 23, 2004 Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 (edited) No, not really. (biting the tongue, that is) I've gone on record before as not really feeling comfortable personally with AAJ, but I've also gone on record as having respect for their thing in spite of that. Truthfully, I'm not comfortable with otherboardbashing overall. If there's a specific matter that irks me, I can speak out on that, but the generalized "hey look at us, ain't we da'bomb" thing is to me like those damn temporary spares - useful, barely, in a crisis, but disaterous to drive on for any duration, or at regular speeds.

A Lark Ascending Posted October 23, 2004 Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 That's exactly how I see it. Perhaps the best thing to do if one has issues with a board is to take them directly to the board in question rather than carping about it elsewhere.

JSngry Posted October 23, 2004 Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 Yeah, but I don't feel right about going into a place I don't regularly contribute to just to complaining about it, either... Really, I'm happy doing what I do where I do it, and what others do elsewhere is really of little or no concern to me. Unless there's blatant fraud or exploitation involved, I'm usually quite content to let the parallel universes stay that way and allow nature to take it's course. When I stray from that principal, and I do sometimes, it's to my detriment, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted October 23, 2004 Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 Fair enough. Though it does beg the question as to why one should feel the need to complain about a board one does not contribute to. Human nature, I suppose. We all like to grumble about something.

EKE BBB Posted October 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 If I can say it... When Organissimo is down and we´re at AAJ, I would suggest to all our BIG O mates, not to limit themselves to post in the "Other jazz website and jazz resources" with stuff like... "when will organissimo, OUR REAL HOME, be back?" or "how I miss organissimo!". I think it´s unpolite, and you all can contribute a lot to that other BB! Now I shut up!

Guest Chaney Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Thanks for the welcome, guys. Good to be here. I'm not the boob Chaney. I'm the new and improved Chaney with 40% less fat, fewer calories, no cholesterol but with all the flavor you've come to expect. (The remaining calories are still empty calories, though.
