Journal Journal: Did I mod this wrong?

I moderated this comment "redundant".

I did it because of this comment in the same article.

Unfortunately in M2 it was said that my moderation was unfair.

Looked to me like the poster accidentally posted twice -- once as html and the other as pure text.

Some people think that it is unfair to the poster to moderate something this way because it was just an accident, and a negative mod will impact the user's karma. But moderation is not a reward/punishment system, it's just a way of scoring comments. That comment was redundant in the most literal way. I modded it down so that it wouldn't spawn a new thread of responses. Kudos to the author for sharing an in-depth solution, but nobody needs to read it twice. FWIW if I remember correctly, I also modded his original comment up.

Journal Journal: Great source of chill music: Soma FM

Well I have been listening to a number of their stations for a while thanks to the iTunes radio, but SomaFM hosts more than I knew about, and so far I think they're all that great kind of stuff you want to come home and chill to.

Any other suggestions for this type of "chill-out" (ambient, trip-hop, acid jazz, idm etc.) station are welcome!

Journal Journal: Got mod points? 2

If so, could you please fix this injustice with at least an "underrated"........ my post was not offtopic, becaus the G5 enclosure is mentioned in the headline!

Thanks.

Journal Journal: Messages

Noticing that metamoderation results no longer seem to appear in my (web-based) messages. Bug?

Journal Journal: Effects of negative M2?

I have probably moderated about 100 comments in my Slashdot career so far, and as of today, two have been marked as "unfair" in meta-moderation.

How does this affect my eligibility to moderate in the future? I've checked the FAQ pages and nothing seems to address this.

Journal Journal: Afterglow web site

Really badly need pics from Om, Teknival and WEMF for the Afterglow web site. Ethan sent me some and they're a little limited. Post a reply to this if you have any, and include a URL I can scoop 'em from.

Alternatively send a comment from the 'contact us' page at http://www.afterglow-productions.com

Journal Journal: This sucks.

It's hard to find time to be creative or productive when your soulmate hates you. Even when she's not around, it's hard to even function. I feel so uninspired.

Journal Journal: Logic Audio upgrade progress

Have Logic 2.5, legally.

Obtained Logic 4, illegally.

Upgrading to Logic 5, legally (<3.5 to 5) ... I hope Emagic doesn't mind I briefly fell off the wagon :)

Gotta clean shit up off the HD. I think I now have 5 OS's on the G4, gotta bring it down to 2: 9.2.x and 10.2.x.

Still can't use Logic X because my Audiowerk card is not yet supported under Core Audio. When will we see that, Emagic?

What kind of learning curve am I going to have to face here? Gotta go back to my folks' place, grab the binder from the 2.x manual and update it to the 4.x version that came with the upgrade. Boo emagic for not redoing the whole thing... $500 Cdn is not chump change, and I believe I deserve a modern manual rather than a 2-year old one with an addendum.

It's a pain in the ass trying to upgrade your primary studio software when you have projects on the go. I wish I could find a few hours to really sink my teeth into this.
