It's just a sycophantic swear & slag fest most days.
Not fully qualified to say anything, but I checked out the list when looking for into on Bicycles and Tricycles and I certainly wasnt impressed. But people can decide for themselves: http://mailman.xmission.com/pipermail/orb/ -paul
I have about 12 gigs of orb MP3 files as well as all of the videos and many of the old Groovetech sets. At some point, I will open up a small orb ftp again.

Like many lists, it is wildly off-topic at times, and since the Thrash-posse joined, it is certainly more chaotic. This list is really no better though--often wildly off-topic, and ya'll toleratate some amazing crap from Mr. Stringer, simply because you don't want to offend the source of your klf-ftp-mediocreness. The fact remains that the Orb-list is a great source (the only good one!) of information about past and current doings of the Orb. Much like this list and the KLF (although www.klf.de is pretty great, too). Mr. Stringer simply has his panties in a wad because a bunch of people got tired of his crap on the Orb-list, and wouldn't let him get away with it anymore. Waaaah. Whatever. Chris

I've never downloaded anything from RMStringer. Thus said, his contribution to this list is valuable to me none-the-less, and whatever seemingly extraneous data he contributes is easily passed over. seek np: Bicycles and Tricycles

Neither have I.

We've talked and traded before; I respect you and your viewpoint. We disagree. His contribution to this list is virtually nil, aside from "running" an ftp site. The sheer amount of crap we have to deal with in return for that "service" is simply not worth it, to me. Obviously, everyone has their own opinion. However, Mr. Stringer crossed the line when he slagged the members of the Orb-list. The list isn't very good these days (neither is this one), but there's no excuse for for calling "most of them" "FUCKING ASSHOLES", now is there? Especially given the crossover membership of the two lists. Chris

Thankx Chris. Now u just offended this list. This list is really no better though--often wildly off-topic, and ya'll toleratate some amazing crap from Mr. Stringer, simply because you don't want to offend the source of your klf-ftp-mediocreness. No pissing match or flame war from me. Just my opinion about the orb list. And more to the point, I said most of the list, not All of it. IF they want to accept my " often wildly off-topic" posts, then that is their right, or to also this the "Delete" key. Over and out.

Heh. *I* didn't call any of them assholes though. Just sycophantic ass-kissers (and not "everyone" or "most", just those who, you know, sycophantically kiss your ass). ;)

Bullshit. You are a liar. You've started and participated in both on both lists.
Just my opinion about the orb list. And more to the point, I said most of the list, not All of it.
And the fact that many members of the Orb list also subscribe to this one, and that it might not be the best idea to slag them never entered your mind, did it?
IF they want to accept my " often wildly off-topic" posts, then that is their right, or to also this the "Delete" key.
Indeed. Which is why you've survived here. However, anyone is also free to call you on your bullshit at any time. Don't like it? Be less of a schmuck.
Over and out.
If only. :P Somehow, I doubt we'll be that lucky. Chris
Could you and Mr Stringer discuss your issues with each other off-list? After all, it's only adding to the amount of off-topic conversation... TIA Chris

Nope. He started it. (With yet another off-topic post.) Funny how all of his other OT crap just slides under the radar, isn't it? When he stops, I'll stop. Or he can apologize, to this list, for calling a bunch of us assholes. (But we all know he's not going to do that.) Chris
