Time doesnt work that way. You made your out of the blue comment/rant, apropos of nothing, and I have no idea why. First of all, you hardly ever take part in this thread, so I don't know why you want to suddenly throw away the rules. Second, even here we have rules, so don't go on making out as if the internet (could you cast a wider net?) has no rules. Every website has its rules and if I create a thread I'm entitled to run it as I see fit. I'm giving up my time to people most of whom seem to appreciate it. If you don't, I can't do anything about that, nor would I want to, as you appear to be the sort who wants to try to cause trouble for the sake of it. If you don't like how the thread is run, if you don't like my rules, don't take part. It's that simple. I'm not going to abandon my system for you or anyone else. The rules are there to maintain some semblance of structure and order here, and if you think you can do a better job, you know what to do. But you won't, will you? You don't really contribute other than just trying to pull down other people's ideas and impose your own will. Not interested.

Again, where this rant came from is beyond me. All I did was suggest --- not proclaim, just suggest --- a new dimension to the thread. I never said nobody gets a rec unless they take one from me. It was just an idea. If this is the way you want to be, then I just won't respond to anything you post in future.

Thanks man. A thread like this needs some basic rules, and I don't think mine are too draconian. Anyone who has tried this knows it can very easily spiral out of control, and you need to lay down some basic ground rules to stop that happening.

What the **** are you talking about? I haven't censored anyone. If you're talking about Justhtefacts, that was an insult and I'm not prepared to accept them. Other than that, I don't know where your head is at.

You start a thread, be prepared to deal with whatever unfolds. That's how it works - on the INTERNET.
Total bollocks and you know it. Who are you to tell me "just take everything that comes you way"? Are YOU reviewing three or four recs a day? Till you are, don't try to pretend you know how much pressure this puts on you. And stuff it with the "it's the Internet" crap. What does that even mean?

Trying to dictate otherwise comes off as pretentious and dickish.
To you.

Again, deal with it.
I don't have to deal with it. This is my thread and I'll run it how I like. You don't like it, there's the door.

Missed the deadline again man, but I'll put you in as first on the next one ok? Incidentally, I saw Mayfield on an old OGWT program and he was really great. "Johannesburg" I think?

I thought I had done that, or is this a new one? Or did you change your rec originally? Anyway, again too late but I'll put yours in after Micco's.
