yes, joe pointed me to that as well

it was nothing personal just the flood of the old-releases which bugged me back then. could have been any group/scener
that is imo was a good point to bug perff about adding more filter possibilities


the sceners page was not locked, thats why i just added it
so this case has nothing to do with watchmen.
anyway, you all watch them, we have seen this before and it's good, no doubt about that


if there is a serious info added to a sceners page, the 'owner' (as you like to call it, though its wrong, he doesn't own this information, afair, it of no importance what i think here though, would have not influenced this situation...) should not be allowed to remove it, just because its inconvenient or anything in this direction, that should be restricted to mods and thats what i meant, dunno if it was unclear before


the release i found today (whether it be true or not, which should be the more important thing to invest) contains some nice info and i tried to place it anywhere it could be of interest, that was to me joe's page and the release page of the demo where 'the copy' was used.


*sigh*
i wish i would have never found this release or it would have been another group (imo) 'flooding' csdb with releases back then
i pretty much forgot about the filtering-incident long time ago...
i swear i did NOT search for a 'fuck joe/antic'-release :-))

Wreg, do you truly believe that people have no right to edit the information that is added to their profile?

Is this the general opinion among all the moderators, that every bit of slander and dirt should be added to someone's profile for the sake of preservation?

If so, could we please elect some new moderators plzkthx.

pls read post#3 again: it should only be removed if it is against the rules and if users have this possibility they would probably remove every inconvienient comment

i dont remember where i read that, but if my memory serves right, ppl should not be able to edit everything they dislike from their profile, we had then when some users demanded deletion of their users profile, its not their property...
else we will have big holes in this database of history, whatever was there, should be here as well

shouldnt make any difference of what i think about this anyway, we have rules and we should obey to them
just because i have some other opions shouldn't disqualify me or anyone else beeing a mod!?

we (the users) can always try to change the rules (petitions anyone!?) ppl will have different opinions on that, for sure, but imho you shouldnt pick mods out of the ones which shared the common opinion :)

A profile doesn't really need more info than this:

the handle and links to releases where that person was credited.

Anything beyond that information...it should be up to the person behind that handle how much information is published.

For preservation purposes, the releases are still there.

There really is no good reason to publish every piece of dirt you can dig up about someone on their profile.

I also vote for a serious reconsideration of some of the moderators and the ways some things have been handling here.
you should leave your post tonight, dear WREG.


The release, as you put it "have found" has been known for quite a while at least for some of us that have been around, but thanks for "finding it" and putting it up here.

The analogue you did to Timbaland seemed very up to date, but far fetched in many ways. It was not even close to something like the
Timbaland story back in the day and besides with that type of mentality we have dousin thieves on csdb to watch, but you had to pick JOE didn't you?

It is all too obvious.

Things have changed over the years, and like many we worked our ass off during the years, made tons of releases,
made tons of new trivia's to write about. Moved to new places, changed our gender, changed our work & changed our looks.

But if all this ends up with some one else editing my information, my trivia, my photo and come up with the ideas of
commenting me, my brother, my fellow friends (even commenting the groups seem to have large flaws and
should have been kept out in the first place!) then it stinks. Yes, it is really that simple.

I meant to write handle, *group(s)*, and releases, of course.

I think there is no such thing as a moderator switching
back and forth from moderator over to user mode.
As a moderator you have a responsibility, and it includes
your "own behaviour", it implies editing, weird and foul language and abuse.

/Eddie aka -if I had the time, and technical possibilities
I would take u up on that offer, Trazan!

Also, it is very easy to sit there and say "people don't own their profiles" when you don't even have a profile here yourself, isn't it?

vanja has a poin there ... <3

however, as for who owns what information, read the rules. we already protect personal information more than we have to (and much more than most other scene sites, go figure).

but i also strongly disagree with putting "comments" (which reflect a personal opinion of some user) into the "trivia" section (which should reflect only factual information) of a profile or release. (and for that reason, i'd like to see comments beeing possible for sceners entries),

@Groepaz: hmm was not the comments possible already for the releases? :D

Further I think that the group comments should be removed and
everyone should have a larger P.M. Button. It would solve a lot of things.

well ehm. At least if we forget about the spam mail that can also happen on the PM.
