Thanks RC
I won't be making the move to Vista for a while yet. My XP has been reliable and does everything I want, but I do like the Vista skins!

I'll check this out and report back

i ain't going to vista either but i knew some here wanted
some things from vista to work in monkey. so i thought maybe
this would help for that and i knew others yet like you wanted the look and feel of vista so i keep a look out for anything. but it seems i missed that when it was first posted. still old news is better then not getting it at all.

The News page is for MM (or at least related) news, I believe! Anything non-MM is "Off Topic".

rovingcowboy · Post by **rovingcowboy** » Tue Apr 03, 2007 11:23 am

read the description again.

Discussion about anything that might be of interest to MediaMonkey users.
Moderators

its been that since the forum was started.

so any NEWS that is of intrest to others in the forum that might have some reason for trying to use the news with media monkey is to be placed in the news and other stuffs forum.

By "of interest to" I infered "related to". I believe this is a suitable inference so am happy with my decision to move this thread to Off Topic. Anyone else disagree?

RovingCowboy, don't be difficult.
The "News and other stuff" forum description is "...anything that might be of interest to MediaMonkey users" and not "...anything that might be of interest to Windows users". That should explain what I mean.
The "Off topic" forum description is "...completely unrelated to MediaMonkey".
That's the way is has been done usually here on the forum.

Well, I agree this should be in "Off Topic" so I am ok with a Moderator moving this thread.

What I can never get my head around is the person who isn't a moderator that feels the need to act like some sort of forum police, sheez get a life!

I for one appreciated RovingCowboy taking time out to make the post regardless of where he opted to put it.

I appreciate RovingCowboy's work too. The only thing I said first was:

"Off Topic" forum pleaz

(that was question for the moderators... I don't PM them for that purpose you know)

The forum tends to get a messy place and so we have to keep it as ordered as possible. Sorry if I'm acting like a forum police. But give me 1 good reason why I can't ask "Off-topic" while a lot of others have done it in the past, and while moderators just do it without asking. I already have a life, an internet-aware life.

Many people (including rovingcowboy) often post suggesting to a moderator that a thread should be moved, or a post deleted or amended. I can't speak for all moderators but I appreciate this as if I agree I already know that I have support for it. Sometimes I don't agree and ignore it!

So in short, thanks to rovingcowboy for creating this thread, thanks to Steegy for suggesting the recategorisation, and thanks to paulmt for agreeing with us.

the way to be successful is unknown.
but
the way to fail is to try and please everyone.
