YouTube IS banned in Norfolk...

That's just so the people there don't get to see that most people don't have webbed hands and that sister and wife are usually different women.

 Awwwww................. Fast Biker Karl is gonna be mad with you...
 
I can see him shaking his heads already.

A few random thoughts:

People who lack confidence are often the most fearful of different ideas.

Those who have no interest in listening or learning have no use for civil disagreements.

Are the TOS that hard to follow? Who cares that "they" got away with worse, and how is that supposed to justify wrongful action on our part? As far as I'm concerned if you can't follow the TOS you deserve to get a time out - and that goes double for my friends, who I'd like to think are worthy of higher standards, not lower ones.

If someone behaves immaturely, responding in kind is not the mature thing to do.

I like people who have different opinions than me, as sometimes it gives me a new perspective on things. Even if they're still wrong. 

If only immaturity was purely a function of youth.

I think the thread in question deserved at least a little ragging. It was entitled "Bad impressions of X3" and yet consisted of a few cut and paste quotes from people on other forums talking about Cakewalk and Gibson as companies - none of it related to anyone's actual bad impression of X3 the product.  
 
So in my opinion it was spreading needless negativity simply by virtue of its title. If I see a post title like that then I'm immediately going to think "uh-oh, someone's had a bad experience with X3." Who wouldn't? So to open it up and find that it was nothing more than a couple of quotes about Roland, Gibson, and past versions of Sonar....well I'm not surprised it got a negative response. 

Ok, to all, I come in peace. I remember this thread. The title was completely misleading and the the person who started it posted stuff that had nothing to do with X3 or anyone's actual impressions.
 
I edited the subject line.
 
Then I took another step to check the OP and he had about 12 posts or something. I looked at his email and he made very little effort to hide his real identity. Someone we have banned here about 50 times. You probably know who it is. I believe he is also using another alias. I deleted the thread and banned at least one of his identities. 
 
The point is we don't try to be heavy handed. We can accept criticism. I am not sure what others said afterwards but the thread was removed due to the GP...I mean OP.
 
I just want to clarify this point. 
 
Please continue on with your conversation :)

This is the icing on the CAKE...very sad Andrew...very sad...
This statement says VOLUMES about the character of you
as a Cakewalk employee, and Cakewalk in general as a company.  

I think it's time to move on...to my friends I bid you a civil adieu...
because, based on this...I'm banning myself from the forum...
and from Cakewalk....you will greatly be missed.  I cannot, in 
good conscience, continue to support a Company that behaves
like this, and it saddens me greatly.

I'm a bit baffled by this response.
 
I have absolutely no problem with Andrew's actions in this matter.
