Hutch- admittedly your general ignorance, inability to admit when wrong, propensity for picking fights and unwillingness to acquaint yourself with the context of a discussion before opening your big mouth really make this place sparkle.

Like I said: middle school kids.
just curious – since so many of you are in an uproar over this. but do you get this upset when you see passwords posted on brooklynvegan - or do you thank your lucky stars that its up there and you didnt need to search for it. because i dont see the 9:30 forum as all that different than BV.
There isn't the same expectation nor etiquette. And BV doesn't have its own passwords, they just broadcast others'.
If BV had its own newsletter and asked that passwords given there not be posted on the website - then there would be reason to get upset.

i figured it was a password from goldfrapp. so that would have been cool for everyone - so long as it was not a 9:30 password? (not that im planning on posting passwords for anything, just curious)

What's brooklynvegan?
Just kidding. Brooklynvegan, and the likes of web sites like them, upset me more than anything else and is completely different than the 9:30 Board. Brooklynvegan gives away passwords simply to drive traffic to their site via google searches, where they make money on advertising. They might as well be chokeychicken as far I'm concerned.
I think there's a very simple point that is being missed when passwords are posted in the public domain:
It means there's nothing special about having a presale. Absolutely nothing. It might as well be a public sale with much fewer tickets, so why keep doing them? And when they disappear, I'll be the first one here saying I told you so.
Kosmo brought up more intricate arguments like it keeps the 9:30 from increasing their volume subscribers and ways for the 9:30 to better reach their customers because there's no incentive, and all of those make sense from a business standpoint. But the simple fact is they'll go away as soon as the fans start complaining that they're not serving their purpose.
Hey, maybe MrNeil, who has sinse left the board, was lying about the fact that he thought it would sell out fast and wanted to increase ticket sales (I didn't even bother to check the NY ticket sales, so kudos to whomever did). Maybe he's a street teamer or their publicist - I don't know. But I like the way the board handled presale passwords through PMs in the past - it protected the uniqueness of the presale and allowed us to judge who, by virtue of their reputation here, was worthy of receiving the password from fellow boardies.

I like Julian's take. PM them away. But I do think posting them for all to see if kind of lame.

That was specifically for you….
This thread is nowhere near as fun as the time that dcist published the Foo Fighters pre-sale password.

Head over to Ticketfly - buy as many as you like
10 ticket limit
No password required
Have fun

That was a good time (Sept/Oct 05?). Too bad they deleted it:
