Man this is so hilarious! :-))

@10s ... so it seems you're talking about the inet as it was several years ago.. never heard about the problem of information overflow.. to much redundant and unorganized information?! If you look at the pbase site of Mr. Pappas.. that's a good example.. it is totally chaotic and unorganized in my humble opinion.. and so were most of his postings.
And what would be the point of basically all the same threads and postings in parallel on all the DV boards? Why the hell should then there even be more than one? What's the point? Well if you don't have the time to check all the boards - in particular this one - than just leave it! It's free for gods sake and nobody orders you to come here... and you don't pay for it.. so if you don't like Jarreds policy... well you know what...

Jeez.. sorry but I was personally involved of the development of several software tools that were provided free of charge for home/private use... and I'm really p*ssed by people who take stuff for free and than come and moan about it or demand changes etc.

SoerenM, thanks but what you said is really redundant and chaotic, but you're more than welcome to say your piece and i did my best to wade through the chaos. Basically you didn't say anything new, as with is often the case with the rest of us here, so why did you say it? did you wish to jump in as others and contribute toward the mass redundancy?

From my limited observations most all boards are full of redundant information, and this is often good. Somehow each time the information is sent forth it is in a new context and therefore it can have new meaning and yield new insight. That's what most writers do and secondary researchers, they repackage information. Only basic research yields new information and often times that is very little.

So while I hate to be redundant, I must admit that redundancy is obviously appreciated, even your and mine redundant pieces. It must be so, otherwise you & I would not be here. :huh:
 
10s I think you mixed up having the same opinion as somebody else has with 1:1 copying of information!

Isn't it strange that almost everyone who thinks that cross posting is kinda "cool" and that Mr. Pappas shouldn't be banned etc. is also referring to this thread as being chaotic.. full of childish or "weird" humor etc.?!
 
Damm, I gotta go. Got to travel and film thease auditions/ rehearsals with under 25 female dancers tomorrow (yawn)
Why did'nt any of you guys tell me this video lark was so damm tough???
I hav'nt mentioned Pappas once (Damm!)
But if Pookie and T.C. don't exist, does that mean I don't too??
 
Please!

Thank you vjbrennan, but I think my reputation is beginning to walk a little too far ahead of me...LOL

I realize that you took this in the spirit it was intended, but I just wanted to point out that you will always challenge the status quo. That's not a bad thing.

As much advertising as possible? What site are you referring to? Surely not this one? For the record; there is NO outside influence other than what Jarred decides on this forum. This site isa ranked 45,000 in the world currently; if Jarred wanted to turn this into an 'Ad Fest' he would have done it long ago.
John_Hudson said:
No, John I agree with yoiu here. It's one of the main reasons this is the board I most often frequent as opposed to those that advertise heavily.

John_Hudson said:
I'm torn on this. On one hand I can see the merit of letting the masses know about something;
On the other hand; it's not entirely original to cross post; it can really detract from the personality of a site don't you think? It's not a message board we run here; it's a community of mostly like-minded filmmakers engaged in sharing ideas and tips and knowledge.
John_Hudson said:
John, your last thought in this paragraph reinforces my point, cross post messages help us "in sharing ideas and tips and knowledge." There is much besides ideas and tips that give a site personality.

Furthermore; isn't it about time to quit moaning and bitching about the percieved shortcomings of the camera (HVX)? It's already getting old. No matter the camera or the manufacturer, people are never really happy. It's just a damn camera. It's either for you or not for you.
John_Hudson said:
I agree with your thoughts about bitching about this camera. But for some this could be truly great camera that eclipses others in the prosumer class. Unfortunately, it does lack a few very basic features for camerafolk who want and need their cameras to really perform well for them. Here, I'm taking about pro's that are used to professional gear and have had cameras with these features and know how it can make their work so much better as well as easier to accomplish. Unfortunately, many who have used only prosumer cameras without these features don’t know what they’re missing. If they did I believe they’d be clamouring for these basic features too. For Michael and I it's a removeable lens and (at least for me) understood without saying it - a decent shoulder mount like the new JVC.

The DHX is so close to being a great camera that some of us can taste what this camera would be like if it had these features. Michael was willing to pin his hopes on it and kept beating his drum, believing Panasonic would listen. Some of us don’t mind a slightly higher price point so a manufacturer can make a camera come alive and become a powerful creative tool. We have had cameras like this and they are like friends we know how to work with and don’t want to give up. Besides the camera isn’t finished and there may well be room for further improvements. Isn’t there an ongoing DHX thread that (at least up until a few days ago) is making suggestions to this effect?

Pappas is indeed a professional and has wonderful ideas; however not everyone agrees with those ideas; as far as making the 200 a 'much better camera', to me it's already looking like the mother of all cameras in this price point. In time, it to will be improved upon with new camera offerings.
...the problem was making the Cow, DVXUser and DVInfo all seem like the same place. This does not drive traffic to each of the forums, it in fact drives traffic away.
It is the different perspective that each of the boards have to "sell" that brings them advertisers and an audience.Jan
(see post 238)

Look at Adbusters Magazine for an expose on advertising and media.

PS my apologies for the poor formating of quotes and my responses.
