Oh, just thought I'd let you know that your 'is this true?' lock was epic, DH. Well done!

You'll have to eventually....

all of the complaints against tookie being heavy handed he always made sure that things didn't get out of hand. The current set of mods in the lounge seem to have taken a hands off approach lately.

Other than this and one other little "problem", I think the current mods are doing a much better job than tooki did.

I still don't understand most of these "problems"... most seem like virtual non-issues to me, but whatever...
I like a hands-off approach. I don't like rules governing how I lounge, don't like rules I can't make sense of myself. However, I think I hate bickering over rules and armchair modding more than I do the rules themselves.
Besson3c just can't get no satisfaction, beyond being universally loved and admired.

Because only things besson is concerned about is important. Everyone else has issues with "non-issues"
And you are here to make sure to let them know that.

Hey Kevin,
Do you remember that you were going to ignore me and restrain yourself from responding to my posts? Isn't that what was agreed upon? You're not off to a very good start.

No besson, that isn't the deal I made you. I told you if you'd stop harassing other people that I would leave you alone. THAT is the deal I made you. Especially people that just want basic forum rules practiced. You seem to have a habit of harassing and even ridiculing those that want simple things like redundancy of irrelevant threads stopped.
It's not like anyone is being hung or being put on the stretcher.
If you want 10 different folders of "Lionel Ritchie" spelled differently in your iTunes folder list, go do it. No one will complain.
Most people get annoyed at such redundancy.

Apple has said that the iPhone is the best iPod they've made yet, so why not add it to the iPod forum? Or turn the iPod forum into a "other Apple hardware" category and include the tv as well...

Are you telling me to stop contributing to my own thread?

to be honest, I think it's ok to start new threads now. I agree that on the first day things were getting a little manic.

Why is there a problem with too many iPhone threads?
Aren't there too many iMac and iBook...threads as well then?
How about too many terrorist threads??
Or is this just a lounge problem?
Then I'd say that there are too many "clinically insane" people posting in the lounge since a few days!

badidea, i think its because they're all over the place (iPod forum, Lounge, etc...) -- we'll have a place for iPhone threads in the near future hopefully.

I just hope Cisco forces Apple to change the name, so that all these threads will be rendered useless.

Make it so you can only start an iphone thread if you have Cingular.
