A troll by my definition is someone who is playing up a persona and not who they seem to be.

I expect people to be honest about themselves if they expect any help from others.

and how do you prove your definition of troll when we are all safely tucked away behind our keyboards? that in mind, per your definition, we all could just as easily be trolls.

you cant change a words meaning just to suit your argument.

edit: a troll on an internet forum has no persona, a troll is simply someone who types a response to a topic, in full knowledge that it will cause unrest.

Ladies... let's just be blissful.

All this bickering is going to piss off captain bliss.

Clarkdale was playing games, he shouldn't be teaching - not even rank beginners, he learned his lesson now shhhhhhh before the Captain find this thread or I post another totally often the wall video that will make you soil yourself from laughter.

Kyzer, you make a good point about not being able to prove if someones a troll but I think you're over-reacting and being naive.

clarksdale, regardless of what any of us say to you or of you, you belong here and I mean that sincerely.

You like the harmonica right? That's what really counts.

For what it's worth I got no beef with you so please stick around.

Kyzer, I have a coke machine in my living room. I have memorabilia around the house. That video may have put me off of coke forever. Thanks.

And what's worse, he seems to be faking it. Watch, half way through, the soda level levels off and he barely drinks another sip. I could drink a soda that fast even tongue blocking! :)

Kyzer, I wish you and I had hung out at HCH. I'm in physical pain from laughing at that video... Can you post the URL? I haven't had that much fun since Buddha's diarrhea (sic?) aerobics clip... Which is alarming in its own way.

Buddha made a critical clarification about the definition of ego that, I think, is VERY pertinent to most of us and our quest to be good stewards of the music that we play. "You think, you stink." And yet you have to think... hence the paradox.

@groyster. Agreed. It's been hate, hate, love, hate, Hmm! I'm not so sure, love, hate, love, kissy-kissy, hate, love and fluffy bits. All in the one thread. Interesting bunch of psychos we've got on here :)

@Buddha, you said (to Captain Bliss):

"But for you, from this point on, I'm going to tell everybody they are great. I'll just fill people with bullshit like people want to hear so they feel better."

But then, that's clearly not what Captain Bliss was asking of you. He explicitly points out that "Refusing to coat the pill in sugar is one thing", and commends you for being "Brutal, constructive, helpful".

That is, in contrast to your later comments which he felt were speculative about someone else's motives, and just a bit mean-spirited.

I can't read anything in what Bliss says that makes me think he wants everything sugar coated. Surely there is a difference between being brutally honest, and just being brutal?

As a student - and hopefully one day a student of yours - I see you at your best when you are the former, and at your worst when you are the latter.

Here, let me end this thread with a clip I like of whom you speak:

I like your method. One day if I ever do reach the level of being good enough to teach you must let me know where i can get a cool beat-stick. Deal?

Now, go everybody! Scat, shooo, go on' git git git! Go do productive stuff. Nothing to see here, it's done. It's over.
Bye, peace,

Now that a love bomb has exploded over our forum, I think we should all go to Chris's favorite new website: http://www.blissworld.com

Looks like they have specials on a wellpox dimple washing device, banish body hair forever units, solidea lump leveling-leggings....some very useful items for us harp-lovin types.

There is even a Bliss take it all off bundle...better not go there.

Dear Joch230,

thank kindly for that website link. It reminds me of my favourite song by Shakti that is simply titled, "What Need Have I For This, What Need Have I For That, I Am Dancing At The Feet Of My Lord, All Is Bliss, All Is Bliss"

My favourite tune

@GermanHarpist:

'Fraid I can't listen to the embedded audio (the Quicktime plugin won't work for me until I've tinkered with gecko/mplayer a bit (Linux))

@MP:

We try to keep elephants out of Room Fluffy (sure you can see why), but I'll dig around for some chew toys.

And...

English Breakfast, Earl Grey?

Something herbal, something fruity, maybe?

I find chamomile quite calming...

@clarksdale:

/HEY HEY HEY, come on, no more violence! Truce!/

An excellent idea.

And...

Welcome!

@Elwood:

Yep.

@scojo:

Best wishes and fingers crossed for you and your family.

@Buddha:

Gosh!

Thank you for taking the time to watch some vids and thank you for your kind words.

/To me, ego is not a negative thing however it does interrupt the creative process./

Thought-provoking. Again, thank you.

"my favourite song by Shakti"

Yeah, I used to have their first two albums on vinyl (one studio, one live, I remember. I don't know if they did more than two), and the early Mahavishnu Orchestra stuff (did McLaughlin leave after the third album?), but I don't have anything on CD.
