Hm, was "some people" directed towards me, ahlid? Well I didnt blame Ron for anything, except that I found it strange to "suggest", as you said, koella to leave the foro until Florian is back. I am counting myself to the people who miss Florian, in a platonic way of course. Its Ron's decision to feel the same or to disagree. Anything other, like that "suggestion" did in an implicit way, brings up a whole unhelpful and different topic, than Florians abstinence. Thats what I meant with "mean", I could also have said "inapropriate" or so. It wasnt my aim to come as aggressive or so, really.

Sometimes I dont post for two weeks and no-one notices at all Ah, but we do notice, Kate... we send eachother PMs saying "that Kate has much better things to do than hang around with the likes of us!" Florian, I knew you'd like all this attention! But sometimes it is easy to argue for its own sake... I'm speaking from experience here. Sometimes when I get an idea or opinion in my head, there's no stoping me, regardless of truth and reason. And after the arguments, I take a step back and reflect on things and realise that my attitude had been foolish, and I feel bad about myself for it. But such things are sometimes part of our nature, so its best just to accept them, or try and change them. In your case, I think the majority of members thought that your good points outweighed the bad ones. So hopefully when you've recovered from your unhappiness, you'll be back on the forum again. But not starting major arguements, I hope! Cheers, Jb

Quote kate: "There are more people reading this thread than any other on the forum!!! This is ridiculous. " I totally agree 110% To me it looks like to many have to little to do and use their time posting irrelevant stuff on this forum. I´m reading a lot on this forum, but I´m posting less and less....... I just dont see the conection between a lot of the posts here and flamenco. I´m sorry.... I´m very "cutting" and straight. But it is very boring to read non relevant discussions involving people wearing to small shoes I could do as many others have done.... Leave. But no, I´ll stay. I use my intuition and read few posts. I might miss a good post or two, but I wont waste my time.

Ramin, No apology needed, and no offense was taken. But you are right that the we do need to try and keep to flamenco to some degree... after all, this is a "flamenco forum"! I have to admit that most of my colleagues aren't remotely philosophical, so if I sound excessively philosophical on the foro, its because I have questions I need to get off my chest that I cannot do so elsewhere. I think its important not to be rigidly anti-off-topic, as sometimes off-topic posts can be interesting, funny, or useful. But you are right, the emphasis should be on Flamenco. I have now deleted the email notifications for this thread, so if I don't respond from hereon, that is why. Obviously, I'm not done with the forum yet- far from it (especially the luthiery section!). I just intend to post far less frequently from now on and only say things that need to be said. Thanks, Jb
