Those pictures were not obtained from a post i made on the forum. They were illegal obtained from the cite itself without my permission which is illegal and that's why i'd like them to be removed from this cite.
When you gave them to the site, you relinquished copyright to the site. The site has no license agremeent (that I have seen) and they can be used at will. But 9:30.com has a kind and level headed moderator here who has helped you out, so thank him.
You may want to put the moderator of your site in touch with this moderator.
What the #$@% happened to the big yawn board?

I bet Eddie would put an extra dab of eyeliner on for him…(it was Eddie who wore the eyeliner wasn't it?)
As an aside, for some reason the HFStival moderator was very reasonable with Markie (who was very reasonable as well) over on their site. But all in all, that site makes ours look like a haven of reason and taste.
:D
:D
Now I'm gonna go ahead and stick up for the guy…leave thegrimace alone. He is just trying to make a point, albeit a wrong one. At least he is trying to be rational, unlike many of his compatriots in the rebellion.
I think that was Sam…

Originally posted by TheGrimace:That's important information – it certainly appeared that all the posters on the HFStival thread on this were involved in the emailing, board flooding, etc. It's the full discussions on the HFS site that I've thought are just insane, and make me happy to be here.
I posted on the big yawn forum but i didn't personally post 50 million times or something. also, i didn't e-mail any of you! i'm just trying to tell you guys where the people that did those things are coming from. you know, be the voice of reason or whatever.
As Markie did for us over there, you've been an emissary here…it was worth talking it through.
I know the bigyawn admin, though, and one email to him would have gone a LONG way and been oh so reasonable.
What's funny is this long debate about the No Electronic Theft Act is that the hfstivalnuts posted it themselves on bigyawn – right there to read!!

redsock and markie clearly getting rich off of this. please buy me an ipod
We all go through some rough spots with haircuts. I certainly can't throw stones.
Either way, I'm sure you understand that posting on this board was a very easy way for a lot of people who have been receiving junk email to vent.
I've said some spiteful things and I'm apologizing for them. Hopefully you spend some more time on both BigYawn – a great review site – and the 930 forum. HFS is no way to hear new music!

Yeah, check out the Soundtrack of our Lives review from a couple weeks ago, and today's on the Get Up Kids. Nice to see the GUPs get props for growing…I've never understood why they get so slammed with all the other sh*t that's out there.

CD quality is still so much better [than ipod].
The crazy part is this is the confirmed (I believe) portion of the festival that brought all this hulabaloo about:
Violent Femmes
Cypress Hill
New Found Glory
POD
Blindside
Hazen St.
Lacuna Coil
Stars Hide Fire
Now, is *anyone* going to this?!? :D

i think alot of the quality issue has to do with the rate you rip your mp3s. i never put on a cd at home, just go to itunes, have the computer hooked up to the stereo. can't tell the difference. besides, i listen to alot of lofi stuff anyway. i'm sure they will come out with something better soon, but will it work with osx?
Originally posted by helicon1:Nice change of topic. I didnt think the ipod was a great idea either. But I got one for $100 and now if it broke, I would have to get a new one tomorrow. The battery issue is pretty rare. I dont have it. And the sound quality is great. Certainly better than my old panasonic portable CD player. Anything CD with shock protection is unlikely to sound better than a decent quality MP3.

My iPod is 18 months old and no problems…
