I will never buy into the idea that restricting what someone else has to say is "fair".

It is anything but.


Look, if one is not insecure about their position, one does not have to resort to such draconian tactics. Tactics which history has proven time and again to be absolutely nonviable anyway.

The majority of folks are a lot smarter than that, they will be able to decide what's up for themselves.

This isnt about censorship its about fairness


Nope, IMO it's about marketing savvy. One of my departments deals with this stuff daily. There are much more damaging ways to attack a company if desired. I tend to doubt this is about 'fairness'.

The internet requires special marketing.
Lots of ways to deal with this particular issue. Our most basic model is called ORM (online reputation management) .. but it all costs money.

These complaints may be legit (from user point of view) or stupidity or competitors.
Eduction alone may solve it, or it may require a more aggressive approach.

Is it costing PGMusic more than the ORM service would cost? That's up to PG.

Tributeman has a point; not addressing it is not the right approach .. from a marketing point of view, anyway. Active engagement of customers is usually beneficial.

I have a Casio keyboard, but try as I might, I can't get it to sound like John Jarvis's Real Tracks. laugh

Ha Ha. Well said. I've got a Korg M1 in the attic. It's staying there.

When comments are made, the time, date and IP address is recorded. We took a look at those, and it turns out that a dozen or so of those off the wall negative comments were from the same IP, using different names, at the same time.

We will delete them.


Have Fun!

All from the same IP, using different "names" - deleting such is not censorship IMO.

This should serve as an example of how things posted via the internet are not always what they appear to be.

Not a kill in any case, I'm certain that PGM's fine reputation carries more weight than any negative attempt such as this one could possibly muster.

Blimey! Im glad I posted this up..agree with Mac censorship isnt the way to go but it appears these silly comments were not as it seems..It might be a good thing when genuine "off the wall"(as Peter puts it) comments are made users on here can rebut them then it cant be said PG Music has a bias if it rebutted them..just a thought.
