But in addressing every single post about it, you're constantly regurgitating a topic that hasn't really been of interest for at least five pages.

Maybe you could host a nice Q&A session on forum conduct sometime instead.

In the mean time, NFR, NFC yeah?

the people who are reguritating it are those who want to suggest it was justifiable when it wasn't. If they stop, then Ive no reason to post back.

I'm not going to let it go otherwise. If some don't like that, they don't have to use this website. I'd rather have this website populated by those who are able to engage their brains than those who can't.

WOWSER!!!! what i miss????

Some crazy stuff! Too much to read!

Personally i dont wish to see pictures of half naked women, i feel it degrading....

Im sure theres other sites for this sort of stuff...

Or am i missing the point?

no, you're not missing the point at all. It's views such as yours that I'm taking into account.

If people wish to constantly make posts like those, then they won't be posting here.

Yes, you're right. Posting those pictures of German girls in bikinis is from EXACTLY the same place as saying the festival would be better without any black people or gay people there.

they're all about degrading others. Which part of that don't you get?

I'm not going to let people suggest that what was happening was justifiable, because it simply wasn't.

So every time someone posts to suggest that it was, I'm going to tell them that they're wrong.

If some don't like that, they don't have to use this website. I'd rather have this website populated by those who are able to engage their brains than those who can't.

Sorry to but in but I fear the moderator is getting a bashing here that he does not really deserve.

In my ignorance I believe that if people post comments on here which somebody objects to, and the moderator does not make a reasonable effort to have such comments removed or curtailed (if the objection is fair), then he could be liable should somebody make a formal complaint. Most data centres where web servers are hosted have T&Cs which state that servers can be taken offline if they host porn sites, sites that incite racism, etc. (at least they do where I have a rack of servers hosted) and letting people post soft porn or libel people could theoretically cause significant problems.

I too appear very abrasive with people (or least people keep telling me this) when in fact I'm really quite chilled towards them so don’t judge too much on the tone of somebody's reply. Also, if you look at the Sundrive Hire thread in Questions you will see that the moderator is probably a little stressed right now having to deal with threats (albeit bluster) because of what people (and the moderator himself) have posted on this site. My two pennies (hope it doesn't sound too sycophantic).

Horrible this weekend, beautiful next is pretty much what's going on.

So it's basically a "HE STARTED IT SO I'M FINISHING!" scenario?!

That seems sensible.

No, it's simply me making sure it finishes here and now.

If that requires me to keep posting back against others comments, then that's what is going to happen.

You trying to ridicule me doing the respectful thing isn't helping. The smarter minds have grasped that already.

THIS IS STILL GOING ON? You stated a few hours ago that you had better things to do but you're still arguing with strangers on the internet? You banned someone for using the c word yet are dishing out similar insults willy nilly? You're derailing the most active and largely followed thread ON YOUR OWN FORUM continuosly, even when people try to get it back on track?

My god, man, get a grip. I don't like to get into internet arguments, but jesus you're annoying. Probably get banned for this eh.

    • TOP 10 acts (top 5 in bold😞   Blood Orange (ciutat)   Guitarricadelafuente   Oklou - Looks like I'm capable of enjoying music in the rain after all, just not the whole night.   Rilo Kiley   The Cure   Jade   Depresión Sonora   Gelli Haha (Parc del Forum) - Her music never really clicked with me. Until I saw her live.   MARINA   Six Sex (ciutat) - I was shocked how supersmall the venue was and that almost everyone (except for me) knew every word of every song (including the ones that were released this weekend!).   Honorable mention:   Ashnikko - missed the first 15 minutes (because of Gelli Haha) and I'm not really a fan of her music, but the show was an absolute blast.
    • Totally agree about PinkPantheress stage choice. 'Luckily' for me, one of my main targets, fakemink, was absolutely awful, meaning that I left early and was in a surprisingly good spot at Cupra before it got totally packed.
    • As many said before, not my favourite Primavera. sh*tty weather is something I'm not really used to when enjoying music. Poor communication (more than 1 hour long radio silence during the worst rain) didn't help, but the main problem was me. I decided to leave the venue after things seemed to be getting back to normal. Massive Attack were supposed to play again (with Hymn of the Big Wheel back on the setlist!) as were all other artists on the smaller stages (including Fcukers with one my favourite albums of the year). FOMO was at an all-time high. However, after 4 hours in the rain, I had to admit to myself that I'm not cut out for this. I wasn't even that soaked (water-proof jacket worked). I was just fed up with the rain, wind and cold and wasn't able to enjoy music anymore.   Also, they should stop ignoring the growth of some artists between signing them up and their actual performance. Both PinkPantheress and Ninajirachi sets were ruined for me by completely inadequate stage choice.   However, I felt very much the same way after the 2022 edition and have thoroughly enjoyed all subsequent editions. So I'm still buying early bird tickets for 2027 and hoping this was a hiccup not the start of a downward trend.
    • I will definitely be buying a 2027 early bird pass, partially because of the priority reservation privileges for the Ciutat sets. Hopefully the organization will take action to improve upon this year's failings. Because I thought the free water options and sound quality were an improvement over last year, so clearly they can actually implement positive changes.   I also hope all the douchebag chompers get in the sea, cause I was more bothered by them than in the past few years.   Highlights: The Cure, Ninajirachi, Knocked Loose, Current 93, Blood Orange.
