This might be a handy sticky. I applied some HTML formatting to the list to make it more comprehensive and bumped into a security issue...

[You're not the first to figure this out; we're running ancient-ass forum software that's riddled with security issues. This is why I block all scripts from TA. Swamper's the only one who can fix it; in the meantime, please don't post it publicly and make it worse than it already is. -DG]

Honestly, I think this person is trolling. He's been mucking up the COR with pointless threads, as well.

[Aside from that one thread, he doesn't seem to have caused that much trouble in here, that's all localized to the CoR. I'll keep an eye on it though. Feel free to follow up if it becomes more of a problem. -DG]

OOPS! is back and at it, again.

Just out of curiousity. Wouldn't it be setting a better example if relevant but non-useful topics get closed instead of deleted? Just to set an example. They would just sink down the list, be gone, yet still visible for those that might care at some point. Or do you deem such a thing undesirable or too much work justifying you actions?


[Yes, unless it's devolved into a massive flame war and is just creating an eyesore. Plus, one thing I hate about vB is that it doesn't give prominence to the fact that a thread is closed, it's just a tiny little "lock" icon. Some (newer) systems display them differently and/or put the word "CLOSED" in the title and/or display a prominent notice in the first post if you open the thread.

It's always kind of a game time decision for me, I'm not specifically biased toward locking or deleting. If you feel strongly that a particular thread should be one or the other, feel free to mention this in your post here. -DG]

I totally agree. Lock the thread and post a copy paste 'youve violated TOS find out why HERE'.
Duplicate posts are not the problem.

[As a rule, we're not talking about TOS violations, as those would be grounds for immediate suspension. We're talking about people going against our own looser version of the "rules".

In any case, I moderate two other sites and we've been down this path many times. Closing/locking a thread might help the OP specifically, if it's communicated clearly why the thread was closed, and the OP is able to ask for clarifications, which the forum doesn't provide much of a vehicle for.

In any event, it's been proven in practice that leaving threads closed instead of deleted as an "example" to the community is a net negative, because stupid trolls won't care, smart trolls will look for loopholes or harp on inconsistencies with other similar threads that weren't closed, and clueless newbs won't notice that it was closed or understand why. Generally speaking, if you've got broken windows, you should either repair them or take them out of view. -DG]

Pointless thread?


EDIT:

Originally posted by clay discussing daws should be ok imo. theres plenty of other worse threads.

I'm not sure, myself; hence the question mark. Most DAW's are going to have exponential advantages over GB and the topic is just rehashing those advantages while rhetorically positioning Logic as a preferred DAW over the others that also operate on Macs. I realize that everyone has to start somewhere but it seems like a very silly question with no real benefit.

[I'm not sure if the problem is the thread topic itself, so much as the idiotic responses being posted. Don't know why people can't just answer the friggin' question. But, seeing as how it's nearly two weeks old with not a single useful post, I'm just going to close it. -DG]

now that Logic is only 200USD in app store i think its worth discussing daws comparing to each other. [...] Unfortunatley it always ends ups as a mac/pc discussion.

[How does pricing make any difference at all as far as objectivity or outcomes are concerned? It's the exact same discussion whether something is priced at $200 or $2000.

Oh, and I redacted your post. Don't you dare try to bring that conversation in here. This thread has exactly one purpose, and it's not to talk about DAWs. -DG]
