Is the thread about the Liverpool tape from the crazy tour deleted, too?
I can't see it anymore!

kind regards,

Does it mean that the Liverpool 1979-12-06 tape shared in that thread is fake ?

It's unfair the entire Liverpool '79 thread was deleted and has left everyone confused. Here's a screen shot of the post to put everyone in the picture. Cue ban / deletion.

Hm, now I'm sorry I didn't read it. Wish I knew who mckey is/was, but if this is the level of conversation involved, I think a ban was a bit too harsh. But I'm not the owner or admin or anything else, that's just a personal opinion, not criticism.

Anyway, did everybody had the chance to download the original? Or is a reupload necessary?

Unfortunately mckey was shot at dawn by the QZ firing squad after being found guilty of whistle blowing terrorism, the molestation allegations proved to be unfounded. His short and tragic life consisted of only four posts and two cans of Stella. There will be no funeral, but please remember him fondly as a person who did what he felt he had to do. He died with great dignity (and slightly bad breath).

So am I to understand that criticism of an unknown prominent carrot dangler is considered molestation, especially if the criticism is from a newbie, and a powerful member of the collecting community complains?

Wow

Do you know what is and isn't about to be posted in the near future?

Maybe the taper doesn't want the master copy out, and that's their call?

Maybe the inferior copy was posted in an effort to VALIDATE someone who went through a lot of work to transfer and share THEIR copy? A tape they'd had for nearly 40 years, and were genuinely happy to let out as if it were gold. Maybe that kind of joy shouldn't be taken away from them regardless of whatever else exists.

But that's clearly not something you understand, because you've never let out an old tape in your life. Unless, of course, you're Kurgan's alter ego, in which case I apologize.

You're not the expert you think you are, Barry. It's getting old and tiresome.

You're just sour grapes because I outed your alter ego as a carrot dangler. You seem so keen to defend someone who cut and ran from this place with his lollipop when he changed the rules of his own bonanza thread.

And considering your name is based on a condom brand, it may be a while before anyone takes you seriously again.

Good luck with that.

Yep, because newbies with four posts are always experts...

So you seem to have overreacted and think that the banning was warranted? The guy had four posts (three constructive of carrot danglers, and one apology).

Are you a one man jury that has the ear of the judge?

This banning is wrong and it is censorship.

I agree with you - the banning was not necessary.

And feel free to amend your quoted version of my post, as I edited it.

Happy trails :-)

I will not censor my own post.

For the record - the last couple pages of this thread are perhaps why so many Queen tapes remain under wraps.

Or have we not noticed that roughly half of the shares of uncirculated tapes over the last few years have resulted in full blown war?

And that the people being vilified are the very people who let the tapes out?

No wonder tapers sit on their masters.

Guys like Barry should be proud.

Not censor - add to.

Man, I'm on your side. Learn to read. As always, you exhibit zero ability to comprehend what is being written here, instead resorting to some kind of agenda that is far removed from reality, along with your usual straw man arguments.

Can you edit your post again so I can understand it better? It doesn't seem to make much sense.

Please hurry, I could get deleted at any moment.

Ok, I had a go with the reply as best I could.

Reply - Yes, Liverpool '79 - No, Hangman acetate.

Reply - I completely agree. But why then would a reliable source (not mckey) be offered the superior copy by somebody from QZ?

Maybe the inferior copy was posted in an effort to VALIDATE someone who went through a lot of work to transfer and share THEIR copy? A tape they'd had for nearly 40 years, and were genuinely happy to let out as if it were gold. Maybe that kind of joy shouldn't be taken away from them regardless of whatever else exists.
Reply - I agree, have I knocked the share in some way? I left a thank you in the deleted thread.

But that's clearly not something you understand, because you've never let out an old tape in your life. Unless, of course, you're Kurgan's alter ego, in which case I apologize.
Reply - I really do understand, even though I have no old tapes to share I still understand (see above reply)

You're not the expert you think you are, Barry. It's getting old and tiresome.
Reply - An expert on what? I know a bit about central heating.

You're just sour grapes because I outed your alter ego as a carrot dangler. You seem so keen to defend someone who cut and ran from this place with his lollipop when he changed the rules of his own bonanza thread.
Reply - I am outed as a carrot dangler and I'm not allowed to defend anyone? You lost me there.

And considering your name is based on a condom brand, it may be a while before anyone takes you seriously again.
Reply - This really hurt me and made me cry. You should be deleted.

Good luck with that.
Reply - Thanks, and good luck too.
