This is the fourth message you've sent to the list in under 75 minutes about your FTP server that doesn't have an [FTP] prefix. Why is it so hard for you to type three letters and a set of brackets, when it's been established (a) as list policy to do it, and (b) that it pisses a lot of people off when you repeatedly refuse to do it?
It doesn't piss me off Chris. Anyone else?

I dunno. Does he ever post anything other than "CAn some1 u/l to my server?" or "Is this on my FTP?" or "WHO has [completely non-K-related track] and can encode and u/l?"? Did he inspire a week-long argument on this list, the most divisive I've seen in eight years here, that was settled by collective agreement on him using the prefix? In the months since that agreement, did he consistently fail to do so? Deleting it isn't the problem - hell, months before the listwar, I'd already gotten fed up with Mr Stringer's endless, illiterately-phrased pleas for people to steal music for him and filtered his address directly to trash at home, so I only see his posts when out of town or checking my mail at work. The problem is that a situation that disrupted the list terribly and led to the departure of at least one long-term, usefully contributing listmember had a solution democratically proposed within the list and accepted by Mr Stringer. If it didn't upset a lot of people, then there wouldn't have been the listwar in the first place - but as other objections by people who don't filter his posts (and remember, the whole point of the [FTP] prefix is so that people who still want to read his biannual on-topic posts [such as, say, telling us that Cressida is actually P.P. Arnold] can FILTER THAT PREFIX) indicate, he's still, through carelessness, stupidity or wilful desire to give people the shits, not doing it. So, Bad Wisdom, eh? Anyone got the new Love Reaction album or Collateral Damage and want to tell us if there are the usual Drummond references in either?
Cressida is actually P.P. Arnold my fucking bad!! Sorry for the Comment. I got corrected didn't I and it said ok. If someone left, it was something wrong with him or her. Filter the fucking posts. Throw all my email in the trash if my post bother you so much, do not read them at all. I am so sorry if all you have to do is police my posts to the list. I wish that is all I had to do. WOW what a life u lead. I just go to school and have a new family. I am sick of your all the time berating me. I run a service to this list for its members. If the ftp posts about KLF material are asked. I will answer them on the list. If I think to use the brackets [], I will. Good night sir.

fscking hell here we go again :( anyone that isnt RMStringer may as well hit delete now.
If someone left, it was something wrong with him or her.
not necessarily. thats a broad assumption to make.
Filter the fucking posts.
thats what we want to do. however, because you wont remember to put [FTP] (6 keystrokes including shift) at the front of your bloddy ftp related messages, we cant.
Throw all my email in the trash if my post bother you so much, do not read them at all.
my problem with this is just occasionally you might post something worth reading. censorship isnt the answer, and killfiling you, as tempting as it is, isnt the answer either. its a bandaid of a solution. it hides the problem. the real answer is for you to remember to press 6 keys. hotkey the bloddy thing if you're that lazy.
I am so sorry if all you have to do is police my posts to the list. I wish
dont know about the others, but i have many other things to do. i selfcensor myself from reminding you that you've forgotten [FTP] (remember - only 6 chars) many times.
that is all I had to do. WOW what a life u lead. I just go to school and have a new family.
get real. probably more than less on this list have lives and better things to do. hell, some probably have a family, a job and go to school. one of the things i like to do (in my spare time) is read klf related mail. unfortunetly, the list is often ftp related mail. i'm not going elsewhere cos this is the very well established, and documented everywhere, klf list. i dont ever recal it being "RMStringers FTP list". <lowblow> from the sounds of some of your posts, i wonder if the list is older than you are </lowblow>
I am sick of your all the time berating me.
so stop doing it! its easy. you remember to put in [FTP] and we'll all stop complaining. do you enjoy causing all this mail? i cant understand why you just cant remember to put in those 5 chars. *L* i am sick of your all the time forgetting to put [FTP]
I run a service to this list for its members.
no you dont. the members have nothing to do with it. you run a ftp server for your benifit. the fact it has some klf on there does not make it a service for the members. fsck, you could be giving your server details out on many lists.
If the ftp posts about KLF material are asked. I will answer them on the list.
thats good. all we're asking is you remember to preface with [FTP]
If I think to use the brackets [], I will.
and if you dont, i think someone will remind you until you do.
Good night sir.
its afternoon here, but have a good sleep. best wishes brendan ps - i'm amazed you remembered to snip away the previous text. quite surprised me.
fscking hell here we go again :( anyone that isnt RMStringer may as well hit delete now. No need to swear from the start, eh?
If someone left, it was something wrong with him or her. not necessarily. thats a broad assumption to make. Well I do think so too. They should focus on the main goal of this mailinglist: KLF. Not a discussion about mailinglists themselves. Filter the fucking posts. thats what we want to do. however, because you wont remember to put [FTP] (6 keystrokes including shift) at the front of your bloddy ftp related messages, we cant. So, make a filter that looks for "RMStringer", "FTP" and "upload" or something like that. How difficult is that? You are obviously proud of internet-etiquette, which should qualify you to make a perl script that regular-pattern-matches these posts and delete them before you read them with your linux-like-client-thingy-0rz.
Throw all my email in the trash if my post bother you so much, do not read them at all. my problem with this is just occasionally you might post something worth reading. censorship isnt the answer, and killfiling you, as tempting as it is, isnt the answer either. its a bandaid of a solution. it hides the problem. the real answer is for you to remember to press 6 keys. hotkey the bloddy thing if you're that lazy. Oh yeah, pressing the 'Delete' key is that much bother also then?
I am so sorry if all you have to do is police my posts to the list. I wish dont know about the others, but i have many other things to do. i selfcensor myself from reminding you that you've forgotten [FTP] (remember - only 6 chars) many times. And already you're spending more time on this then you would have if you pressed that freakin' delete key (or were at least able to create a proper filter)
i'm not going elsewhere cos this is the very well established, and documented everywhere, klf list. i dont ever recal it being "RMStringers FTP list". I didn't hear him say that either? That's an assumption you make.
<lowblow> from the sounds of some of your posts, i wonder if the list is older than you are </lowblow> Showing *your* real age more, I would say. Stabbing someone with their low age is something kids do only anyway. And, as I said, a regular pattern match could have solved your problems a long time ago. Since you present yourself as such an old man, I assume you are able to do this also?
I am sick of your all the time berating me. so stop doing it! So, if you tell him to do something he doesn't agree with, all you have to do is keep bothering him with the same arguments again and again to persuade him? He is, I hope you know this by now, *not* impressed by your arguments. So either develop a strict SMTP-derived protocol for mailinglist-servers, or accept the fact that SMTP is free as hell in formatting your messages.
I run a service to this list for its members. no you dont. the members have nothing to do with it. you run a ftp server for your benifit. the fact it has some klf on there does not make it a service for the members. fsck, you could be giving your server details out on many lists. Since a lot of members actually enjoy his fuckin' (to use your words) server, I would say it is a service to this list. Just you and chris are not enjoying it. That's all.
If I think to use the brackets [], I will. and if you dont, i think someone will remind you until you do. Ah, that's the way to go! He offers you a little hand, and you stomp him ito the ground. *That* will surely persuade him (nooot).
ps - i'm amazed you remembered to snip away the previous text. quite surprised me. And there you go again. Not getting *any* sympathy here again :( Geez..

There were more heated arguments in the past. I remember the period of one person posting about 120 times "STOP THIS NONSENSE" on the KLF mailinglist because of some small fight. That was much worse than this. Second, he did not "inspire" anyone to do so. If a computer game inspires you to kill people, it's still *your* fault, not that of the game's creators.
In the months since that agreement, did he consistently fail to do so? I never saw him agreeing on anything. An agreement is usually made between two parties, of which he wasn't one.

from memory, i believe it was the same fight. i can check if you'd like.
That was much worse than this. Second, he did not "inspire" anyone to do so. If a computer game inspires you to kill people, it's still *your* fault, not that of the game's creators.
hmm..thats debateable. if i post straightup offensive racist crap posts, and then someone complains, it sure would seem like i inspired it.
In the months since that agreement, did he consistently fail to do so? I never saw him agreeing on anything. An agreement is usually made between two parties, of which he wasn't one.
i'm too lazy now to go check, but no so lazy i wont reply. generally, in matters that affect a lot of people, not all of who are actively reading and posting, a majority vote is generally taken as the lists wishes. the list wishes he'd put in [FTP]. maybe not technically an agreement i agree. however, it still stands that people are annoyed with his lack of effort in typing six keystrokes
And even then you bother to bore us with your nerd-like mailing-list behaviour 'rulez0rz', or whatever you guys call it.
i take offensive with that. its not nerd like. its bloddy historical fact. you really shouldnt debate technical matters if you dont know what goes on at a technical level. RMStringer has already tried that. it just shows your ignorence of whats going on. and nobody has ever typed in 'skript kiddie' that i recall. happy to be corrected though - just post the sender and date and time of the list mail that did, and I'll happily dig out my archives and check.
Still this is a problem of that one person leaving. I have joined this list for KLF, not to learn about mailinglist-trivia-nerd-rulez0r-stuff.
I also joined for klf news, just not FTP news.
Let us count the number of people who really are bothered by this issue at all... eehm... 1?
jeez Marijn, how long have you been on the list? if you bother to check the archives, you'll see this has happened time and time again, and theres more than 1 person who's bothered by it. if you're gonna debate, at least have some idea of what led up to the debate, and preferably some understanding of it too. lets take a different point of view for a moment, and see what you think of the ending. lets just assume that rmstringer cant get it, and continues to post without the preface. thats fine, cos after all "you can just hit delete". then, what if everyone who doesnt like it, responds to the list with a simple message reminding him that he didnt do it. its no problem to you, cos you can "just hit delete". now, lets assume theres a lot of ppl who remind him. you're hitting delete a lot now, doesnt it get annoying?
now, lets assume theres a lot of ppl who remind him. you're hitting delete a lot now, doesnt it get annoying? Actually, I think this is the most interesting discussion since a long time. It's almost a soap :)

A small fight ? SMALL ? *lol* It was the imho biggest mailing list flame war ever on this list, resulting of the 1.300 $ Love Trance 12" and Miles kindly asking for 10 $ for a copy (which I think is a reasonable price and was happily willing to pay). Miles left the list because he got pissed off by the offense caused by various list members that had the hillarious opinion that it is their right to request music for free - music for which Miles had paid 1.300 $ before. Go and dig out the mailing archives if you want to know more. Small... *rofl*
Second, he did not "inspire" anyone to do so. If a computer game inspires you to kill people, it's still *your* fault, not that of the game's creators.
But the creator could have easily lower the level of violence if he wanted to, preventing somebody killing another person. And adding [FTP] to a single post is no problem as well - IF SOMEONE WANTED TO.
I never saw him agreeing on anything. An agreement is usually made between two parties, of which he wasn't one.
Yeah, just like I don't agree on the tax policies in my country but still have to pay.

It was the imho biggest mailing list flame war ever on this list, resulting
it's definetly the biggest that comes to mind quickly. whilst i found it kindafunny (he did make his feelings heard after all :) it sure caused a lot of annoyance. i'd have hated to have received them all on a webmail service.

oh no! dont start this one again *L* everybody - take some deep breathes, put on chillout and unplug your computers for 45mins. just delete me, brendan <idea>

you know, an easy way to search the mail archives for faq type questions would be good, but you'd have to, well hopefully you'd want to munge the mail addresses somehow so the nasty spiders didnt get them. hmmm..more ideas - offlist ;-)

["Cressida is actually P.P. Arnold"]This was a thought that I had a long tome a go and no one ever told me different 'cus it has never been asked to my knowledge. I have the Stadium House on VHS. I bought the video at Hastings records and tapes store in Collage back in 1990. I knew very little about the KLF, I only knew that I liked them and I thought that this was going to be the White room movie. I was 19 yrs old then. I have since amassed a great collection of material on my server that I freely give to the list. I have never monitored who was on it from the list. I might bump a person now and again if I need my bandwidth. I have since learned about the KLF much more, their history and the likes from the list. I have been on the list for about 2 years and have stayed on it thought a lot of shit that other people have started. If the brackets will make you happier, I will try to remember to use them. Most of the KLF material I have is out of print and if people have a broadband Internet connect, they should have the same as well. The band is DEAD! Leave the situation alone. I offer other music as well. IF other people don't want to read my posts, fucking delete them as well. I have near 60 gigs online, but also, it is my personal music that I am offering to the list and to other people. It is my freaking workstation that is the server. I offer other stuff b/c the KLF are gone. The Drummond stuff in my opinion sucks. Oh well, I need to go pay for school and talk to my daughter's teacher. _______________________________________________ KLF mailing list KLF@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/klf
on the subject of [FTP] - I usually read rob's mails anyway (i read almost _everything_ anyway) so i'm not affected by a lack of [FTP] but having said that, i do agree that since some people _do_ want the prefix, and some people _do_ get pissed off, and it was agreed to use it, that it should be used. Particularly as Stuart, a long term, high quality contributor to the list, left partly because of this argument. But, on the other hand, if [FTP] were to be used all the time, we wouldn't have the occasional explosion from Brendan ;-) I think that netiquette is important (if it's "nerd-like" and of no importance to you, then so is email - go read a book), and putting [FTP] (or other prefixes, particularly [OT] if it is off-topic) is a nice courtesy. So if it's a vote, I'm in the "please use [META] tings" camp, but if it's not a vote, I'll go back to plotting a way to overthrow the regime and insitute a democracy ;-) now, on to the reason i replied to this mail ...

So, Bad Wisdom, eh? Anyone got the new Love Reaction album or Collateral Damage and want to tell us if there are the usual Drummond references in either?
Collateral Damage is pretty good, though I don't remember any Bill references. (Maybe one or two brief mentions of "my friend Bill", but nothing significant that I can remmeber) I haven't got the album, although I did get the Zodiac Youth album recently, which I like. It's been a while since I bought any good hard trance like that, and with guitars thrown in too! -- "When I think of all the harm the Bible has done, I despair of ever writing anything to equal it." - Oscar Wilde
It doesn't piss me off Chris.
Anyone else?
Nor me :-)
Not really,
it does me. i cant filter his posts until RMStringer learns to stick to it.
but it proves a certain amount of ignorance after a week long
perhaps stupidity?
discussion and the unsubscription of a long time member of the mailing list... poor, poor.
i think this is what bugs me more. its caused so much trouble and wasted bandwidth on the list, but he cant get it through his head.
I bet it took a lot more effort to write that than it would have to have pressed Delete. There are a lot more important things to worry about in this world than fretting and getting worked up about deleting a couple of poxy emails. Chris H Chris wrote:
This is the fourth message you've sent to the list in under 75 minutes about your FTP server that doesn't have an [FTP] prefix. Why is it so hard for you to type three letters and a set of brackets, when it's been established (a) as list policy to do it, and (b) that it pisses a lot of people off when you repeatedly refuse to do it?
