Who is SMU Don and why do I not care about him? He considers himself royalty from his tone. This message was sent to me privately.

These posts accomplish nothing. Stop taking "shots" at band members on this board. If you have a problem with someone, go to them.

Don

Interesting that a man who desires others to interact in a certain way does not even have the courage to speak on the forum, but only through a private message. Are you the long lost Mithrandir, or just another individual who believes the band does not need to play?

ghost of L. Donald Shields?

I don't recall you ever taking a shot at a band member.

I believe this regards Mithrandir, a poster on this board for some time. My comments have only been directed at a poster that chose to post on this board, and never someone that did not desire to converse by the rules agreed upon by all posters. Whether or not that person is in the band is irrelevant. Here they are just another that would choose to post. SMU Don would seem to be an example of someone small that desires to be large.

I think the band director's first name is Don. Might try calling him.

And he should be hailed for contacting through PM, rather than attacking through a public forum. Those with complaints about other posters should follow the same path.

I wonder if Don rides a motorcycle?

Hailed for making demands? For not making a request, but a demand? This was not a post in which a complaint was made, but where he assumed authority. I will not be intimidated, and it is unfortunate you approve of such behavior on a message board.

My opinion of the band is now lower than before, which dissapoints me, but one cannot blame the students for their poor performances with such a peasant directing them. Be careful of what you say, or you too might recieve a message from this would-be webmaster.

I wonder what it was that set him off?

I must have missed the post where Samurai talked about a band member, so I was wondering the same thing.

rock band?

Got quite a rise out of you (non pun intended), Samurai. Why let whomever it was win? E-mail terrorism is best combatted with one of two things: if you're using outlook on the company server, let them see the email go to "deleted not read"...or, just respond with "okay, thanks."

Dedicating an entire thread to them to memorialize his keyboard lashing of you kind of empowers him.

I believe it was my desire to see Mithrandir return to this glonious message board once more.

This thread has been most informative.
Domo.
