Begging for setlists, photos, and especially recordings is getting very old. People, grow up and learn to ask nicely. You're all adults now.
I have to wonder who these people are that you speak of? I wonder if I'm one of them because I often do ask for recordings but I also feel like I give back to the community by taping, running torrents, posting setlists, etc. I think this is the 2nd time you've hit on this theme and I'm sorry that you're upset (especially since you run the board and many thanks to you for that, I love it here) but I have been reading pretty regularly for the last year and I just don't see much begging around here. Maybe the posts are getting deleted before I have a chance to read them.

I am ammending this post because I just read Kevin's setlist grovel in the Bowery topic but he is new here and was nice enough to post the part of the setlist he did have.

I guess my question is where the line is between begging and asking nicely? Also what constitutes a 'spam' post vs. a content laden praise-worthy post? I personally don't give enough of a phuck about what my little name says to post just to bump it up so if I am tossing off a one-liner it's because that's what I wanted to say...

i have been deleted before.

It is one of those occasions that a response was silly and pointless... offensive or rude

it is always a shock at first but eventually you forget about it and realize yeah it probably was a stupid post
