Re: [microsound]Sense of irony (does it exist on microsound?)



what?

who's at fault here? you, for replying in an insulting, narrow- minding, and childish fashion (which was in no way ironic and short- ciruited what may have been a valuable discussion on a particular technology)? or "the list" for...what? not "taking each message on its own merits"? not being wise and erudite enough for you/ microsound list standards?

i'm confused.

will someone with good netiquette please clear this up?

Recently I made a rather admittedly inproper comment on a person's
enthusiastic endorsement of a logig plug-in. The most striking result
of my ironically intended comment was, that people regarded it as being
a personal attack on the message's instigator. This was certainly not
the case, because I don't know the person, so every person attack placed, is
rather futile... But the most striking point is that people are not capable
of taking each message on its own merits, but rather like to fit it into
their own set of preconceptions. If this is hte case, I think this is
bad for the microsound-list. I thought its members are wiser and erudite,
considering its wide global (planetary almost galactic) membership)...


But perhaps I'm wrong...
