    [TImothy Auld] “And that’s great David. But I suggest you go a few posts back before you accuse me of being uncivil.”

    Tim, I only saw your recent post, but if it helps, I’m directing my statement to everyone –

    Hey everyone – let’s keep it civil, on topic, and talk about the cool stuff. It’s much more fun. Thanks.

    In trying to manage with a light hand, preferably NO hand, I apologize for letting this thread get out of control. It didn’t get CRAZY out of control, and it seems to me like it could get back on the rails and stay there easily enough without me, just by posting a little more slowly.

    Please note that I’m not calling anyone out in particular, but a number of posts went pretty clearly over the line for personally-directed speech. I tried to trim those while leaving the overall flow of the conversation intact. I sincerely apologize if you feel I cut too much or too little.

    As always, please send me a note directly if you have any questions or concerns. Hijacking the thread with admin stuff and replies to it is exactly the opposite of what I’m trying to do with keeping the discussion on topic — but I cut a wide enough swath through here that I felt I owed you an explanation.

    It’s all gonna work out fine.

    Sorry for whatever part I played in this, Tim. I felt I was being personally attacked and I responded. Which in retrospect was stupid of me. I’m sorry to have made your job a pain. If it makes you feel at all better, it’s not the first time I’ve been stupid. And probably not the last.

    Ppl ppl ppl, ENOUGH. The rules here are very, very clear: no posting about other posters. Post about the topic ONLY, or about something pleasantly off topic.

    But posting about other posters isn’t just off topic. It’s OFF LIMITS. STOP IT.

    [TImothy Auld] ” it’s not the first time I’ve been stupid. And probably not the last.”

    Ha! Thanks! It happens to us all.

    In fact, we added the ability for users to remove their own posts because we kept getting so many requests for it. We previously DIDN’t allow it because we didn’t want trolls hitting and running…but in fact, what’s happened almost all the time is that people post something they wish they hadn’t. I’ve used this feature myself for exactly that reason.

    My apologies to the class again for going through the thread and deleting even MORE posts. I know that one of the functions of forums like Creative COW is for people to blow off steam, and we value that. Strong opinions are not only allowed, but REQUESTED. We love that.

    But even for full-contact posting, there are rules.

    Also apologies again for deleting any posts at the high-signal end of the spectrum. My judgement in those cases was either that there was enough noise in them to fall afoul of the rules, OR because they responded to a post that was no longer there.

    I’m very happy to go back to my typical role of not touching posts. I haven’t touched one here in the past year, maybe the past two years.

    As always, please write me directly with any additional questions or concerns.

    Thanks again,
    Tim

    Oh and you did not answer my question about

    “As soon as paste with audio overwrite becomes possible, I’ll be much more interested in cutting in X.”

    I asked: “I’m kinda surprised to hear that you would consider using FCP X’s trackless design. Aside from one missing keyboard command what’s your must have list?”
