Certain people are and have been very vocal in support or not of certain shows, and I want to get a broader opinion base.

My ultimate goal is to broaden the Aural Moon listening experience. There is a lot of great music already on the playlist, and more being added constantly, that rarely or never gets heard. I am trying to remedy that.

Any other agenda is not mine and not welcome.

Excellent, well said! I want to say the following:

1) If need be I will drop to two hours, no problem.

2) I expected the results to be anonymous. I'm sure they are. But vax you need to realize that his comment pissed a lot of people off. There's no need to quote chapter and verse about everything, vax. No one is saying anything else about you. Vax just take it like a man PLEASE and realize you said something you didn't want to. Hell I do it all the time! That's all anyone is saying. I hope you understand. If not, I'm sorry but I had to say it. And now i'm not worried about it anymore.

3) If we made the poll results hidden until the end I think that would help.

4) I'm going to try (lol) post a lot less from now on...too much drama.

Vote on please!

4) And making it a sticky would help too. The others are buried.

[quote=VAXman;31348You're pissed because I commented about the level of negativity.

If this continues, you can consider my station reboot today at 15:00 to be my last maintenance effort for AM.[/QUOTE]

I didn't say anything others didn't say here. One sentence is all we have issue with.

Why did you think I said keep the results private? I am not pissed at all. no one need to know the results of Tom's poll or any other.

If you would like to use me as a lightning rod to air your views, so be it. I am only sorry that others may suffer because you choose me as the whipping boy.

Please read lotus or magoo's or mossy's or keith's comments. They only say what i do. And I received many more privately unfortunately.

And now i must tend to my family. I've already shooed off too much of work. All for naught I fear. Sorry everyone.

I like Gags alot, he caters to the original proggers with insite and interviews,. Hes on late Sat. so whats the problem with the Jersey stuff. Its a very small part of the show. And I find his expertise flawless. The crackle has always been there... gives us something to Whine about....... Please keep Gags

It's not that you commented about the negativity, that's your opinion and is just as valid as anybody else's. It's that you disparaged others opinions/votes by sniffing who voted how and commenting on it.

Very bad form IMO.

I'm very sorry if you don't like or value my feedback, or others. But I'm not known for hiding what I feel, I just try to do it in a non-confrontational manner (usually). And this is a family, with leaders & followers, all of our faults & foibles, and our gifts as well.

That being said, I'm taking a 24 hr chill pill on this issue, and hope others do as well.

I wasn't sure if the Admins could see WHO voted, or if they could only see THAT a vote had been cast, and the system would take care of double votes, etc. I will admit to naivity, if that is the benchmark.

The issue of naivity regarding computer polling feels like a deflection for the more important ethical issue, though, which is the one Goo has outlined above.

The polls were a good idea, but needed to be left alone. The only "tainting" done was to publically disparage the voting, and those who voted, on this particular show.

I don't think this is worth pulling the plug on though, is it?

You can name me as one of the people who voted negatively with gags, vax. It's just my opinion, as you have yours. I don't think I gave it the "horrible" vote though. In any case, what does it matter...
