My suggestion, About Italo, The Spam, etc...

["Alejandro Martínez" <alexmartinez7@hotmail.com>]

Hi, it seems that nobody was interested even in reading my last post about 
creating a Bullentin Board inside of LD web page for posting instead of 
this 
list, and to the only 2 guys who responded to that post (Todd Pafford & 
Mark 
Pulver)  you didnīt even taked the time to read it well īcause I donīt 
know 
in which language to put this again but here itīs for the 4th time: ITīS 
NOT 
ABOUT EMAIL FILTERS !!!, and I quote my previous email again: "I want to 
clarify and I thought I did it before that this isnīt a matter of using 
email filters (which I already did) īcause even having all the LD emails 
delivered to a specific folder we still sometimes receive too many emails 
on 
a daily basis and using words to block certain emails like the guy on this 
list who was planning to put a filter to the word "Repeater" is not a 
solution īcause maybe one of the replies to that topic may have something 
of 
interest.", again: I DO have a filter in my inbox to send all the LD list 
emails to a specific folder, the main reason for proposing a BB was that I 
think is a more efficient way to share important info, Iīll send again 
that 
post in case someone has the time to read it well and think about that 
proposal, of course now Iīll resend it with a catchy title like one that 
it 
seems to be one of the favourites on this list.
The sad part was that I tried to make a long and well explanation about my 
idea and the only 2 responses I got were: "Let me just put in my vote 
against a web based BBoard by saying: Ugh." (Todd Pafford), and: "Yeup... 
With a good mail client you can all still easily filter out my babbling." 
(Mark Pulver), Mark: not everybody is subscribed to 31 mailing lists like 
you said you were and some of us doesnīt spend most of our day in front of 
a 
computer.
I think one of the most important reasons why I proposed that was that if 
youīre a working musician itīs a much better way if you can check the 
topics, POST a new one or REPLY to them even if youīre on tour, on 
vacation 
or in some place where you canīt have access to your regular email account 
but you still have access to the Internet and just by accesing the LD web 
page you could do all that, isnīt that more useful?, now I guess the 
answer 
is NO if you anyways spend most of your day online.
Funny thing is that in this last week we have received a bunch of emails 
that wouldnīt exist if we were using a BB : again those useless responses 
to 
the "unsubscribe" emails and to the Spam thing, actually for those who are 
afraid of receiving Spam īcause of this list thatīs another good reason 
for 
changing to a BB.
About the emails of Italo de Angelis I think he made a good point 
specially 
at this: "keep talking about loopers, forgetting the reason of it 
all...where is music here? Did we forget about it? or it's only about 
boxes' 
features...", and whatīs the point of the guy who said on this list "get 
your Visa ready" & "we are sitting here with our wallets open..." both for 
the Electrix Repeater?, at least this guy should practice his playing 
while 
waiting for the Repeater, too much about gear and impulse buying, too 
little 
about music here.
And last but not least, about the guy who said he was an endorser for the 
EDP and was having troubles with it, I donīt think his complaints should 
be 
taken with reserve īcause heīs not famous, everybody who payed the cash to 
get some gear deserves a quality unit like the official sponsors 
regardless 
of the intended use on that unit.
Time to unsubscribe now, or better yet: unsubscribe me or Iīll sue!, 
(laughs).
Alex.
