Sheesh, how many times must I warn you about making suppositions, and totally failing to understand the way the Baltimore IMC software works?



1) Your response has been hidden, since it was rated down by users to be below the threshold of viewable comments. It apparently joined the legions of other unworthy comments.

First of all, notice that Spud stuck his reply after my initial post. That's not exactly following the flow of the conversation, which is precisely what I've accused him of doing regarding the Media Gallery.

2) I posted a comment in reply to your post, and that comment appears just below the post. How does that not follow the flow of conversation? I really fail to understand your point here.

Again, Spud lies. Spud turned off the image of the tennis fan holding the 911 sign two days after it appeared in the Media Gallery:
baltimore.indymedia.org/media/all/display/6345/index.php

3) Yeah, and if you look at that page carefully, the image was posted on April 3, and you documented its "removal" on April 12. That's…um…9 days after it was posted. Since the Media Gallery module displays images posted in the past 7 days, the image had essentially exceeded that threshold. Or is math not your strong suit?

Spud also writes: "Your 'Martin O'Malley()'s Irish Roots…' photo is a perfect example of what DOES NOT belong in the Media Gallery. The image itself is pointless without any context…" Wait a second! I provided the context. There's a link attached to the image referring to the context.

4) That's not "context". That's a link to your blog entry. You were simply using the Media Gallery as a cheap link to your blog, which is not what the media gallery was designed for, as I pointed out earlier. Nonetheless, I didn't "remove" or "turn off" the image at all. Bear in mind, AS HAS BEEN REPEATED ENDLESSLY, that the image displayed on the home page module box is completely automated, and I don't EVER "turn it off" when it suits me or anyone else.

Unfortunately, Baltimore IMC is the ONLY "Indymedia" website that I can post my news blog on. People like Spud are making that possible.

5) Wow, that must be a little humiliating that someone you seem to hold in such little regard is nonetheless the only person who allows you to publish crap. I don't think that's what you meant to say, but still, it's true.

6) Just for the record, if your posts continue to consist of flame-bait and ad hominem attacks against me personally, they aren't going to last long here, either.
