Bapu:
If I was a moderator I would punish you for starting this tom foolery
and prevent you from posting with any of your aliases for a good 5 minutes.
That would teach you a lesson young man.

Yes I was in the 25th;  If you were in and around Tay Ninh around '68 you might have seen me.
I was the tall ugly dude with an M60 on one shoulder and a chip on the other.    :)

Please keep this forum per its intended purpose.

The song was about VSTs not working.
 
Does EVERYONE not get it?

are they the vsts that worked or not worked?

Take it to the the songs forum.

You needlessly interfered as if you are some sort of forum police. You make a habit of it and it needs to stop.

I was there in 69. LOL I was the hansom fellow with the mortar.  Tay Ninh also known as Rocket City. Welcome home! PM me if you want to talk.

I'm not sure where you are coming from but I was held accountable by Bapu for not liking clicking on a link that took me to another link. If you did read the interchange between us it may dawn on you that he, Bapu, lurks around here finding fault with me in particular when ever he sees an opening. I just wonder why I am so important to him that I seem to be on his mind so often.  I have done him no harm or think about him yet here he is starting an argument over nothing. What really made it an issue was someone else deliberately misquoting me. That is not acceptable to me. And Bapu jumped on my objection to that. 
 
Their we stand. 

There have been some ongoing feuds between forum members - some for quite a long time.
 
No matter which forum these occur in, there should be no place in any of them for that sort of thing.
 
I do think it is a bit over the line for someone to alter someone's quote content, and continue to attribute that quote to the person, without any acknowledgement that this was done - it is something that should not take place, regardless of the intent - playful or otherwise.
 
In any case - I think this particular forum needs to be a place where issues are posted and discussed, with the intent of moving people forward on issue resolution, in as supportive a manner as possible.
 
Please folks, let's be respectful of each other, and keep the focus on the thread's intended purpose.
 
John, I would suggest if what you perceive as personal attacks continue, that you contact the admin folks and ask for some assistance.
 
Time for a big old nap for me - I just had to erase about 4 lines of '=' that I had typed whilst snoring away.

Oh John, now who's misquoting?
 
I couldn't care less who likes or dislikes clicking on link in a post of mine, but it "seemed" to you that it was a {paraphrased} redundant {/paraphrased} link, which I pointed out it was NOT.
 
But will you acknowledge that you misunderstood when asked to? No, you will not. That is what only mildly irks me. 
 
{specifically ONLY highlighting your exact words} "And Bapu jumped on my objection to that. "
 
Feel free to quote a post in this thread where I stated that I took exception your belief that a quote should not be altered. (HINT: You will not find one)
 
See? This is where you chose to write your own history about someone else (something you "seem" to detest in others). I did NOT jump on you for your views on misquoting. I simply pointed out that if accuracy is what you wish for this forum I suggested you apologize for the inaccuracy/misunderstanding in your own post #2.
 
My OP was a link to a Songs Forum post (which contained a link to a Souncloud entry), not a link to another version of this thread.
 
I'll accurately quote your post #2 (even with the double "this") in case you forgot what I was taking exception to. Nothing more nothing less.
 
"May I ask why you are posting this when it seems to go to another version of this this thread?"
 
And John, you are wrong (again) about you being on my mind so often. About the only time you are on my radar is when I read a post from you. After that the buffer is truly flushed.
