i don't have anything against opening a thread about every news, but frankly, not many people were replying at the end...still, no reason to ban him for that.

i'm sad to see FLEA and RED go, but if something is irritating you that much......like this MB......then i think you're decision is a good one in the long run. maybe you'll return when things have cooled off, if not i wish you BOTH well.
i tried to stay away from anything that looked remotely like a war topic because if i wanna see something about it, or read something about it......i can turn on my TV or read the paper, or some other on line source. the WAR is too much with us, and all the protests in the world NOW can't change the fact that WE (the US and a few other countries) are in it. bashing the people who's job it is to keep our asses safe is just NOT right IMO. i'm sure they don't wanna be there either, but they took an oath and have to follow it now.......despite their personal feelings.
i myself bid adieu today to an ex-bf who is an apache helicopter pilot......and while i don't support the war, i certainly support him and hope he comes home safe and SOON.
the WAR is in everything these days, people watch it like it's entertainment, it's NOT. while reading the MB...i would rather have OTHER things to talk about than the war......and would rather NOT have reminders about the WAR all ze time. but if others want it, i say go for it. no one made me click on ANY of them cos it's pointless to argue ad nauseum about something NONE of us (as far as i know) has ever been actively involved in, and war just DIVIDES people, as it has on this MB. Bah!!!!
adieu dear flea & red.....more war 'casualties' in a sense

This is a sad day for xltronic :-/ Flea seemed like one of the nicest and most intelligent (and talented) people on here. And i for one, will miss his posts alot.
Including the war-posts, i found them all interesting and important. You cannot compare a war to starwars or football... it isn't just some pleasant discussion... this is something that is really happening. Just look at the frontpage now, you will see there are NO threads about the war, they have all died.
And if you look at ceri's posts, i hardly think it was like "A friend kindly asks you to take it easy on the war topic creation". It went more like:
"Just so people can't claim I didn't tell them... Any new topics on war/anti-war will be closed. This a music MB at the end of the day, not a political one.
By all means keep the existing threads, but don't create any new ones.
... If you don't like it- go elsewhere."
Sad indeed. I know it was only a temporary ban, and 7 days doesn't seem like much. But if you don't agree with the reason for which you're being banned, i can imagine you'd find it very insulting. It isn't a fair discussion when one of the two people discussing has the power to shut the other up for seven days. How are you supposed to come back after the ban is over? Pretend like nothing happened? That just doesn't seem right, and it certainly doesn't seem like flea.

How about this. Someone emailed me in response to Lacoeur's post:
"I was gonna respond to that LaCoeur post but she's sweet and I didn't want
to be harsh. Plus you'll never get through to people like that. Her view of
the world is so skewed. Fair enough if you don't want to do anything about
the world but that whole ostrich attitude stinks to high Heaven.
There's that attitude of non-criticism of the troops, or 'Our Boys' as they
keep being referred to as, over here also. Even people critical of the war
are now swinging behind them. I know most are working class kids who sign up
because its either that or poverty and drudgery, but at the end of the day
they are trained killers. My sympathy lies with the Iraqis who take their
fire, not them. They made their choice, the Iraqis haven't."

So he's gone. And Red too. I'm absolutely fucking disgusted. I think Titsworth summed it all up best. I didn't go into most of the war topics but fuck they didn't BOTHER me, of course people are gonna talk about it. Just like a new thread for 26 Mixes has popped up every 2 hours or so. If this escalates then all the good members will be gone and it'll just be bill hicks left jabbering insanely to himself

Flea is taking this way too seriously. It's not the first time he decides to leave due to messageboard circumstances.
I def. support my moderators decisions during the last week - all of them. Ceri was handling the situation perfect. He asked Flea and other members politely, to stop creating more war-topics, several times before he decided to ban them. It was out of control.
I also agree with everything Ophecks said in this topic.

At one point there were at least 5 26 Mixes for Cash topics on the board at one time andn o one seemed to mind.
We have got more "What does the Aphex logo mean" or "Who's the other member of Aphex Twins" than we ever did war threads.
I did look in on the Anti War threads from time to time but i didn't reply since i dismiss the 'war'. But i feel that both sides (Moderators and Members) are taking this too seriously.
Time will pass...wounds will heal...Xltronic will come :)

"Artists, be they painters, actors, writers or musicians, have a responsibility to reflect and interpret and interpret the world around them. Our current administration's foreign policy strikes me as being reckless, inhumane, and hopelessly out of step with the so-called "values" it claims to defend. We, the world's only superpower, have immense capacity to easy human suffering throughout the world, yet we instead choose to inflict it upon those we deem a threat to our agenda of empire. As an American, my government's actions give me cause for great concern. I'm proud to support Zack de la Rocha in giving a musical voice to that concern." - DJ Shadow

To the waffle iron crisp ninjas: When I fed my porcupine the intestines of cunty chuck and anus presley this morning I decided to leave this messageboard forever, too, starting at the end of THIS message. The reasons are written below in a legible logical form:
1) tostad222a superheros, or the lack thereof 17) all the moderators are hungry hungry hippo fag donkeys inclucing ophecks. Especially opax, but ESPECIALLY... um, ceri. Yeah, those two in particular like to play hungry hungry hippos together in their underwear. Just kidding, but whoever banned me on several occasions deserves a very heart warming and comfortable footshake from me for ridding the community of the leftover duck parts not eaten by the giant fraggles.
3) the corruption of the true ludicrous spirit of aphex twin's marshmellow roasting invention.
4) (top secret) 5-22) see "the tale of the sprinkler head cont." on page 37
