FYI, the blog FCPX on-air posts will be posted in the FCPX Techniques forum

[Craig Seeman] “Craig Slattery mentions other editors gaining interest and then that’s refuted. That kind of response is too common.”
Craig, although I realize you are never wrong, nothing was refuted until you practically dared someone to do it. Sort of like intellectual entrapment. To think that those type of responses don’t poison the well as much as any other is the sheerest hypocrisy. As for myself I don’t mind a little poison in the waters, it gives it a little kick, but when the arguments get spicy I don’t cry to mother about it.
As for why new editors don’t post here, it’s mostly because there’s nothing really left to say for now, is there?

“Not for you perhaps.
Problem is now that the FCPX forums are split. If you take the FCP Classic forum, it was and is a fantastic place that was a mix of workflow tips, problem solving and feature discussions. With FCPX it’s split across two forums, the techniques forum is shaping up rather nicely and in reality perhaps we should be concentrating FCPX user discussions over there rather than on here.

That was always the point of the 2 forums. Come here to proselytize and be prepared for a rotten tomato every now and then, go there to solve workflow problems and pat yourselves on the back.

Sure, go to the PPro forum and count up how many times someone posts how much they love PPro, they can’t believe how long they suffered with FCP, how PPro is the best NLE out there … yada yada yada.
Nothing wrong with onanism, but stoking yourself always looks silly to someone else, unless your a stripper.

Actually John Davidson said bring on the 20 paragraph rant replies or something to that effect and that I started posting my mock responses. True it was bait. I admit it. I was hoping the humor was obvious.

The humor was obvious, but it was still bait. It’s OK by me, I like worms.

Yes, and then he was the one to take his ball and go home because the kids played too rough.

“He did move the post very quickly!
To follow it up John has started posting some interesting videos on his workflows over on the techniques forum.

For clarity, I had always intended to post those in techniques, but because FCPX is so special that it gets two forums, I put it in the wrong one. I moved it as soon as I realized it.
If you look back, aside from the occasional post like this weekend when I was on the cow a lot prepping these blogs, I took my balls out of this forum a long long time ago.
