TWO separate definiotons for the same object are UNACCEPTABLE Period and ALWAYS. Unacceptabe to you, but not unacceptable to Ken. This is Ken's program and he has the final say.

| | Posted: | | | | While the poll results - currently 20 to 1 - show that this matter is quite clear to nearly everyone, Skip has retaliated by adding "RULES VIOLATION" to his voting comment - in a bid to influence the other voters, I guess.  Honestly, admitting you were wrong once in a while is not the end of the world. You really should try it sometime. How do you expect anyone to take you seriously when you show time and time again that you only stick to your own set of rules, and really don't care anything about Invelos' rules and what Ken says, when that doesn't happen to agree with your own thoughts? Aren't you always saying that people should keep their personal preferences local? Then why can't you apply that to yourself? Anyway - rant mode off... It's just that I find it rather irritating that we keep fighting the same battles over and over again. This was settled months ago, and it's clear to everyone but you. We all know you don't like it, but let's just move on, okay? | | | | Last edited: by T!M |

| | Posted: | | | | I just had this discussion in PMs with Skip concerning his contribution for Magnum P.I.: The Complete Sixth Season which I initially voted No on for his change of Case Type from Digipak to Slip Case. In my Vote notes I said it was a Digipak with a Slip Cover. His response to my No Vote was: "Wrong. It IS slip Case, not a slip cover. You comment even negates your vote. You admit it is a slip case witth an internal Digipak. We ARE talking about the parent, we don't have a slip case check box. So the children are Digipaked, while the Parent is the Slip." After that, I changed my vote. Now I am right back to square one...confused  . | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| | Posted: | | | | In this case, Skip is wrong. If you follow the link, Skip provided, you will find a thread with images of these case types. There is also a note about how they are to be entered in profiler. On the second page of that thread, Ken said they were all correct. Per that thread, and Ken, for us to use 'Slip Case', it must contain MULTIPLE cases inside. If it doesn't, it is a Digipak with a Slip Cover. The fact that Skip doesn't like it means nothing. Ken has spoken and if Skip is doing anything different, he is violating the rules. For the record, I agree with Skip in principle. I even argued that point...until Ken set me straight. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

That's MY INTERPRETATION of what Ken says, Tim and I'l stick with it until the RULES are changed.
TWO definitions for one object are UNACCEPTABLE>
Skip Your doing just what you complain about others doing. You don't like the rule, you in fact find it "UNACCEPTABLE" so you just pretend the part you don't like never existed. You play The three wise monkeys. But your just plan wrong on this. The rules are quite clear. | | | | Tom. |

| | Posted: | | | | Here is what is funny or more closely to it pathetic. Based on what i see here, nearly everyone here should get negative votes...believe it or not. It is truly pathetic. BTW it has gotten so ridiculous that I have said my last on this subject and numerous others. If I dare to voice my opinion...well you know the rest..it might be very shocking were I to post a screen cap, which I have no intention of doing. There are some users who are clearly bent on shutting me up. God forbid I have an opinion.  In facxt despite the fact that I am angry, I am willing to bet that this will draw negative votes, despite no name calling or personal insults of any kind, or for that matter anything that could be remotely considered offensive, save daring to voice my opnion.

| | Posted: | | | | If posting a shot of the case will clench it for your argument, why not post it? So far, the count is everybody vs you.
I don't think anybody here should get negative votes. Nothing here warrants it based on how the reputation system was laid out by Ken. Even your posts Skip. |

I don't think any post in this thread crossed the line. Then again, I have only cast 3 negative votes since the system went into place, all for personal attacks against other users, so maybe I don't know what I am talking about.  | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | Ahh. Negative votes shouldn't be given if someone disagrees with you, even if they strongly disagree. Now if someone calls you a jackass for your opinion, by all means,  them to death. Skip's "pathetic" statement (in reference towards, not an opinion of) is close to the line but doesn't cross. But negative votes given improperly tend to show back up in the givers inbox so just a matter of time for the receiver of bad negative votes receives their justice. | | | | Last edited: by Dr. Killpatient |

I am willing to bet that this will draw negative votes I'd like to point out that I use negative votes rarely, and I certainly haven't done so for any posts in this thread. It was, and it is, not my intention to bash you, Skip. I just wanted to check whether I was right on this. With a 50 to 1 "score", I guess this is settled, and I hope that the screeners will make the right decision, too. It would just make a refreshing change if you, for once, would be able to admit you were wrong. But instead, I see you're sticking with your ridiculous no-vote, and from 8ballMax's message I understand that you're even busy trying to spread your personal preference further through the database...

| | Posted: | | | | I suggest you communicate with 8Ball again and retract your comment. Thank you. Your commets are many hours too late, contrtay to popular belief i do not live here, I do sleep and there are many hours when I am not here even though my computer is. I consider your comment to be borderline and I will accept your apology, since you are NOT speaking based on first hand knowledge but on third hand word that was corrected sometime ago. Let's see it 8blals post was at 7:15PM my time, it is now 5:00AM my time that makes his post near 11 hours ago, nothing happens in 11 hours does it. And a slanderous comment like that does nothing to change my opinion about my vote on yours, if anything it makes it more solid. Your comment has me absolutely livid, Tim, I won't throw a negative vote at you though I am sorley tempted. Make sure your information is up-to-date BEFORE you go making accusations.

| | Posted: | | | | This whole thread lets me think of "All got it wrong but me"
Sorry Skip, if everyone reads the rules like T!M (me included), then I would strongly advise you to rethink on your interpretation. Especially if the interpretation of the others is covered by the original terms of Ken's explanation. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?
