To some that is clearly a clear sign that the comments are written by some proponent of NS and JA, of which I am not nor ever expect to be.<BR/><BR/>--Anon 9:53<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the welcome back. I appreciate it. And maybe I will just sign in if I make future comments. It does make it easier for having a conversation.<BR/><BR/>To clarify though, I didn't not use my sign in name because of my goodbye post. I actually signed in as Ineff. numerous times since writing that comment. I didn't use my old name because as I wrote above I didn't feel a sense of "membership" in this community anymore. It also had nothing to do with how I veiwed my comment or thought it would be perceived.<BR/><BR/>As for this all being avoided by using my username, that sort of furthers the point I was trying to make in my response above. Why should my username be needed as immunity from attacks? Why does posting something that is not 100% in line with some commenters inevitably lead to being attacked and accused of being JA?<BR/><BR/>This means if I didn't have the advantage of having been here with a username form day 1 people would still be thinking I'm JA or a troll. That's the point I was trying to make above my stating my ID.<BR/><BR/>If I was a newer commenter and wrote what I wrote above, I wouldn't have an old identity to fall back on to prove my position, yet I'd be someone with the exact same views expressed the exact same way as I've expressed them above. And I'd have been mocked and written off for it (as I was initially) and wouldn't be able to prove my identifty or viewpoint beyond my most recent comments to change that perception.<BR/><BR/>I'm just trying to point out that that type of behavior is unfair IMO and tends to drive legitimate commenters away. Not all are going to dislike NS and JA for the same reasons and in the same ways and to the same extent. It shouldn't require a username or proven identity on this site or 100% agreement with some party line to have one's respectfully posted and unincendiary comments treated with civility or if not that then at least ignored.<BR/><BR/>I appreciate your feedback though and the warm welcome you offered despite my history of saying goodbye, then returning, then anon posting, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434803014232331503.post-986011685905982842009-03-10T22:08:00.000-04:002009-03-10T22:08:00.000-04:00Julia's old nose: the real problem with your sugge...Julia's old nose: the real problem with your suggestion is you're assuming they'll have access to internet at SXSW, an interactive festival.

Not everyone with a different viewpoint from you is Julia or a troll. My comments (10:36 and 12:12) weren't obnoxious or rude and didn't warrant the vitriol from either of you. Jacy asked specificaly in her post what poeple's views were and I offered mine and asked a question about others'.<BR/><BR/>Do you have that much trouble with views different from your own that your reaction cannot remain civil when your respond?<BR/><BR/>Yes I saw everyone talking about a downgrade, I didn't see it as such and so, naturally, asked for the explanation. I guess I didn't see the few reasons bandied about as explanation for the sense of certaintly so many seemed to display about why this was such a step down. I assumed there were other reasons or some context I didn't get and asked.<BR/><BR/>The information you offered was welcome and useful, but nothing in my comment warranted an attack and I see the vitriol and derision you responded with as a reflection on you alone and not of me or my comments.<BR/><BR/>I've been accused of being JA on this site a handful of times, whenever comments haven't had the adequate amount of bite some people seem to think is required to prove one's anti-JA and anti-NS bias or have offered more of a positive look at NS than some may be comfortable with. Yet in reality I've been posting here since day 1 and am no more in JA's camp than anyone else here and never have been.<BR/><BR/>I don't feel the same feeling of comradarie or openness to various veiwpoints here anymore that I felt when the site was first started so I don't comment much these days and don't bother with a sign in name when I do. <BR/><BR/>That is not an attack on anyone or on the site, just an explanation for why I don't bother with a sign in when I do comment on occasion and why my comments of 12:12 and 10:36 weren't under my old username, which was Ineffable, and NOT Julia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434803014232331503.post-55934573972636350292009-03-10T21:16:00.000-04:002009-03-10T21:16:00.000-04:00new slogan we go poopy for poofy?new slogan we go poopy for poofy?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434803014232331503.post-78194408383846196702009-03-10T21:13:00.000-04:002009-03-10T21:13:00.000-04:00OK, RBNS editors, this is getting boring.

This stuff is easy.<BR/><BR/>I worked off an on for a network that covered 6 big music festivals a year. I'd usually get a call the week before to come on as a freelance producer. The talent loved/hated me because I'd make sure they did a minimum of 12 (TWELVE) artist interviews a day. We did it on zero budget and using equipment that was mostly our own.<BR/><BR/>We'd get on-site at 9AM, work until 8 or 9:00, go out until 3 and then wake up in the morning and do it all over again. <BR/><BR/>This is what you DO when you're covering an event like this. It's exhausting. It's completely non-stop. And your responsibility when you're COVERING it is to bring that vibe and energy to your viewers/readers/listeners, to make them feel like they're there.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, I know what we'll get from the NS girls <BR/>- kissy face pictures<BR/>- random Twitters when they spot a celeb<BR/>- karaoke pics<BR/><BR/>and.... that'll be about it.
