I have no pity for Apple, Sony, or any of the companies involved in encrypting audio sources. If a person buys a copy of a work, they should be able to listen to it on any equipment they choose and not be limited to just one brand or piece of equipment for copy and playback.

Hi guys, thought I would check in on this thread too. Possibly my last post for a while. I'm going to take my own advice and stay off AD for a few weeks. I'm not closing my account but think I need get away from this and see what happens. We as members along with the mods make suggestions but it seems no one hears what we say. We have been complaining about certain problems for almost 2 years but its still the same story. I realize we don't own or actually operate this site but when you have many members making the same complaint over and over again you would think it would be heard. WHERE DID ALL THE OLD TIMERS GO??? I guess they all got fed up with the system. I'll probably check in every day and do some reading and see if any changes take place but my POST COUNT will stay where it is for now. To all the MODS, keep up the excellent work my friends because without you guys it would be hell on here. Later.
Jerry

Call me lazy, I agree with Jerry, but don't think the leave in disagreement will really accomplish anything. The powers that be rarely make changes that would cause a loss of face. I know I'm treading on dangerous ground, but there should be some positions of trusted status where a member with proven credentials can post with his word carrying some weight. Too many noobs have garnered Senior and Addict status by doing a lot of chatting and cheerleading for the current member titles to mean anything. Now all it says is that someone has a knack for keyboarding. Since the system is set the way it is, it's already too late to make amends. However, above the current mess, there should be a trusted group with a status that comes from only being true helpers and knowing what they're talking about. LOL I doubt I'd be one of those as I am told I rarely know what I'm talking about. ;)

True, it is DRD's site. I'm not going to rag him over it. However, with things the way they are, there are no members with a title that can be trusted. I've heard better posts from newbies than some of the Addicts we now have. Titles no longer mean anything, so why even have them? You're welcome to take mine and put Newbie as my rank.

LOL So, are you soliciting my opinion for another thread? Seriously though, and I'll say it anywhere, when a member can say "yeah man" a few thousand times and become an Addict, what can the title mean?

while there will be no more titles here, there has been much talk of a "karma system" of sorts where the outstanding memebrs can get the recognition they deserve like the old days. cant say when it will come into play, but we'll keep reminding the powers above that it IS something that is needed.

Newbies will automatically become Afterdawn Addicts following their first post. That goes into effect tomorrow, immediately following the installation of the new Senior Mods. The current class of Addicts will be retired and no longer allowed to post. Unfortunately, the current class of Junior Members will be placed in limbo.

On March 31, 2006 11:56pm thousands of motorists driving on the highway outside London looked up in the air to see a glowing flying saucer descending on their city. Many of them pulled to the side of the road to watch the bizarre craft float through the air. The saucer finally landed in a field on the outskirts of London where local residents immediately called the police to warn them of an alien invasion. Soon the police arrived on the scene, and one brave officer approached the craft with his truncheon extended before him. When a door in the craft popped open, and a small, silver-suited figure emerged, the policeman ran in the opposite direction.
