When the World seems to shine....

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Classy stuff. Doesn't anyone else get unnerved by the amount of stuff we share...?

When I say we, of course, I mean you.

I tend to think that at some point all-out sharing makes boots less interesting. Everything's available, hence nothing's valuable anymore. All these recordings are available as weeds anyway, so it's not like you can't get them.
As I always say : back in the day boots used to be paid in cash, now they're paid in goodwill (that means contributing to the forum and being a respectable HLer).
I do appreciate a share from time to time but when it gets systematic it loses some of its value. Also it's very impersonal and as such much less friendly than weeding and - to a certain extent - trading.

Aha, you've taken me a little too literally there, Baddy. Unless, your tone of irony is lost in cyberspace...?

:lol:
It's just one man's POV, and it's definitely not as straightforward as it seems. I'm certainly not going to ask anybody to stop sharing, I'm just questioning the whole idea.

What kind of emoticon sez "Y'know, I'm saying this but I'm not 100% sure so don't take that all too seriously. Let's just talk it out and see where we stand, won't we ?" :wink: 8)

Still just ten years ago a 50 piece boot collection was more than respectable and now with the Internet it's just everyday business. Strange.

By sharing, I think he was referring to Keith's sharing of things that Tim didn't really want to hear. Not bootlegs. :lol:

Sorry Badlander, maybe I should clarify my position. My main complaint was about the level of information that Scotty was sharing with us, about his - peculiar - hair-cut. :wink:

I'm in no position to comment on bootlegging or weeding, as I've yet to start properly. Nonetheless, I recommend you start a thread on this topic, as it's sure to get some attention!

I think Tim was talking about "sharing" in a different context...

...but IMO you do have a point about the ease of collection now compared to then. My collection was built up from nothing more than 2 vinyl bootlegs and a few tapes to that lot in the time I've been on HL -- just over two and a half years.

But I'm not sure that it can be in any way said to be a bad thing that people get the chance to listen to music they otherwise might not have been able to hear. Unless collectors are doing it for a "mine is bigger than yours" type of p!ssing contest, which quite frankly is IMO a juvenile attitude.

The Internet has brought with it a far wider distribution of, and easier access to information (in the widest sense of the word). To try to stop this is as futile as King Cnut ordering back the tide.

Which brings us back to... The information that scotty once had a Brazilian is now widely distributed and easily accessed. That's the sort of "sharing" I think Tim was talking about. ;)

Can we get back to talking about Keef's BALDY BAWS now?

This is all getting a bit highbrow for me.

Aye well, some of us have the sense not to admit it.

If there were anything to admit, obviously. :innocent:

There was an incident when I was on a school field trip involving one lad's bed and a can of shaving foam, which led to a teacher assuming the lad in question had pîssed the bed :lol: :twisted:
