Fair enough.  Then take them ALL DOWN.  I mean, roo's links to Mp3's.  I mean any MP3's hosted for download on this site.  I mean all of the tape trading topics.  I mean all of the "hidden" topics.  All of it.  Roo has been posting information about downloading rarities for severl days now.

If we are gonna say NO COPY PROTECTED material, make it universal and not half assed.  This selective enforcement crap is BS and you know it.

Your initial comments seemed directed at BV. I just wanted to make clear that it was something that we'd already decided before Kev was even a mod.

You have a fair point. It is inconsistant. I don't remember why we decided it was an acceptable risk to have URLs is the FAQ. I don't have any idea why Rogier's thread didn't trigger the same response. To be honest I'd forgotten it was something we had decided until now. Yes that does make me a half assed mod.

The first time someone does something questionable or iffy, especially if he or she has a history of good behavior, I am gonna give him or her the benefit of the doubt and just chalk it up to being moody, or tired, or making the wrong decision, or confusion or whatever.

But the third and fourth time I am gonna get pissy.

I just got Katia's ruling on this and I am satisfied with it......

For those who are curious, we ARE allowed to post links to files on our own servers.  As long as we are taking responsibility for the files we are hosting and not trying to pretend it is an official NH.com server.

In other words, take responsibility for your own actions.

So Charles and roo are fine to post their URL's in the future.

they are low quality... I was listening to them in my headphones last night and some of them are down right awful.  It came from a tape so I didn't expect it to sound super quality anyway.  Plus it wasn't mastered either.  So its already got 2 strikes against it.  But that is besides the point.  The files will be up til midnight PST.  Then i will be taking them offline.

Get these, LOW QUALITY mp3s while they are available.  I will admit they are low quality and stop giving Tricia a hard time.  Everyone on here is getting way to damn tense.

(speaking to everyone)

well, i can say that i wont be downloading those, considering that they are crapper versions, and they weren't even sopposed to be mp3's yet.
im fine with waiting.  i suggest that other people wait too, but i cant tell anyone what to do.
if you want to waste space on your computer by downloading these, because you cant wait a couple days(weeks? i donno) just to hear the songs... then wow, go ahead and do it.


i am NOT complaining about charles putting the mp3s on his site.. geeze..
its cool that hes helping people who dont know what the hell an SHN is.

I am merely giving people the choice as well...
I am not gonna keep the files from the public...
but my statement still stands... these are not good quality.

With 200 GB of online storage with this computer (80 GB internal + 120 GB external), I don't think I'll have problems "wasting" that much space in the interm. :wink:
