Which area on this forum do you least visit?

[7/4]

OK, you asked and here comes Chuck the ASSHOLE AND JERK. I tend to ignore threads started by Hardbopjazz 'cause there are about 4 a day (is this your goal?) and most of the questions have been dealt with before.

I'm still in the mode to answer quickly and have it done with. Will it last?

has this question been dealt with before?

Chuck I disagree with you up to a point about HardbopJazz thread's. A lot of his threads are probably "Been There Done That" for you and I can seen why their reapperance for you could be annoying but not everybody is in the same boat as you are or at least not to the same extent.

To some posters his threads are no doubt redundant but that probably isn't a hard and fast rule for everyone.

What's your favorite bop date? What is rhythm? How do jazz musicians count? What is the worst Curtis Fuller date? Does time mean something to you? How do you feel about altered chords? Has your mother related to you and your music interests? How tall are your favorite jazz musicians? Did King Oliver appreciate what Louis did in the late '20s?

has an impressive background in the jazz and recording field, and I am glad that he

brings it to this BBS.

If there is a jerk here, it is the one who started this thread.

I think Jeff's question was a reasonable one (and very common on this board) but his

reaction against Chuck went overboard.

Nevertheless, I find Chuck to be an ornery poster fairly often. Anyone else notice the

time that someone advised him to "take a chill pill" and Chuck told him he doesn't know

him well enough to tell him that?!

If Chuck didn't want to make an obnoxious comment, all he had to say was that he is

not someone who obsesses over what reissues sound the best, that he is only

concerned about the music.

Again, Jeff went overboard but I don't think Chuck is blameless.

Ditto. C'mon, SoulStation, do the right thing & delete this thread. It looks like what it

Hans you're right. Chuck shows some dignity here. Buy the way, I notice more and more

that 'older' members are criticizing young or new jazz fans with (according to

them)absolutely no feeling for this great music. This makes me feel very anxious. I

hoped the board could help me develop my knowledge. I state clearly that I'm not

interested in every reissue and every lessknown record. I just want the essentials

(there's enough of them I guess, counting already 250 discs in my collection) and hope

you guys can show me the way. Anyway (maybe this should be the title of a thread?) I

hope this site is not for the elite. Ban obnoxious people but show some mercy for

'ignorants'.

Jeff, your posts are usually among my favorites, but in this case you are just plain

wrong, both by what you say and how you're going about saying it. Everybody gets a

little crusty once in a while. EVERYBODY. It's always the sane thing to do to just let it

slide, but when it's somebody who the vast majority of the time offers invaluable

information, unique insight, true knowledge, and, yes, humor, it's not just sane, it's

RIGHT. Look at the totality of what that person brings rather than the thing or two that

hacks you off. There ain't NO perfect people in this world. The crust is what brings the

pie.

If Blue Note was to ban every ass-hole on the board, there wouldn't be many of us

left...

BTW, I don't think Chuck is an ass-hole. In my experience, he has been very helpful and

courteous. This is just getting out of hand, all this pointing and tattling and taking

sides.

I have resisted getting involved in most of the "ban (username), do this, do that"

discussions for fear of sounding like a hypocrit as many of the contributors to these

threads have, but this is just too much guys. Give it a rest please. Some of us enjoy

coming to the board to talk about music with a wide variety of people. One of the most

valuable aspects of this board is the diversity. So not everyone was raised by Ann

Landers. SFW. All this etiquette is just unnecessary.

And as a general question, whatever happened to the concept of actually paying

attention to what more experienced people have to say, even it might rub us the wrong

way? What could be taken as abrasive might actually be a condensed dose of reality, a

lesson, even. Myself, if I know that the teacher is good, I'll take my lessons no matter

No one said "ban him from the board". When one (yours truly) starts a thread with a

benign discographical question and a response from him is "why don't you think about

buying a discography" that is obnoxious. It isn't his chat board. That type of discourse

is uncalled for and I'm glad Soulstation started this thread.

He also makes snide remarks in an insulting tone toward people here.

Mr. Nessa is getting what he deserves.

Is there really any point for a thread like this on a Jazz BBS Board? Is there any point to

many of the posts on this board these days in general?

This is yet another thread that lets us know that the supposed moderator of this board:

1. No Longer Exists

2. Is asleep on the job

3. Doesn't care and is only there to collect a check and hope no one notices he is not

doing his job.

4. Has no supervision from anyone at Blue Note, which explains 2 & 3.

From Webster's Dictionary:

Main Entry: mod·er·a·tor

Pronunciation: 'mä-d&-"rA-t&r

Function: noun

Date: circa 1560

1 : one who arbitrates : MEDIATOR

2 : one who presides over an assembly, meeting, or discussion: as a : the presiding

officer of a governing body b : the nonpartisan presiding officer of a town meeting c :

the chairman of a discussion group

Does anyone think this definition describes the so-called Moderator of this board?

As bad as Mark at Verve was a thread like this would not have been allowed on the

Verve Board. You know things are getting bad on this board when anything about the

Verve Board can be compared in a more favorable light.

Can anyone explain why if this board has a moderator this thread has not been deleted

long ago? Are we to now understand that threads whose whole purpose is to attack

another poster is allowed on the Blue Note Board?

was here to answer questions, while Bo took care of the technical details of running the

software, etc. But as far as I'm aware, there never was/is anyone to read each and

every post and edit/delete accordingly.

Now whether or not this board _should_ have a full-time moderator is another

question...

(The original thread is gone (thankfully), where Chuck Nessa snapped a bit at SS1), but

I wanted to go on record as saying that I think this whole episode is pretty damn pitiful.

Chuck may be a little terse in a few of his posts (maybe quite a few) -- but then some

might consider that a part of his charm. He's got strong opinions (as many of us do),

but (IMHO) he's been down enough roads in this 'industry' (much as I hate that term),

to pretty much say whatever he likes, however he likes to say it. (And personally, I

don't think his original 'snap' at SS1 in the other thread warranted the multiple ugly

replies he got in return.)

(And heck, I've even seen on a number of occasions where Chuck has gone on record

as apologizing if his slightly 'in-your-face' manner got taken the wrong way.)

I rarely (if ever) get in the middle of any of the 'character' arguments going on around

the BNBB, but I have to say that I think this is all pretty damn sad.

Chuck's a big boy, and surely he can take it (and has probably taken much worse over

the years) - but I don't think he deserves it, especially in this case.

I generally enjoy and respect the opinions of lots of people around these parts, including

some people I was surprised to see come down on Mr. Nessa.

I'm hoping this all blows over soon, and we can get back to discussing more interesting

topics - instead of beating up on each other - which just turns people off, and chases

off some subset of the people who are here to share ideas, and learn from each other.

Now wait a gosh darn second. I could have piled on Chuck like Hardbop did. Instead, I gave a nuanced comment which said that Chuck is often ornery but doesn't deserve this attack:

I think Jeff's question was a reasonable one (and very common on this board) but his reaction against Chuck went overboard.

Again, Jeff went overboard but I don't think Chuck is blameless.

I think it's supposed to be a black and tan.

Allow me to make it up to you.
