        i used to read stileproject back when i was in college

        • 2007-06-21 17222, 2007

      • ojnkpjg
        before it got bought up

        • 2007-06-21 17228, 2007

      • ojnkpjg
        and turned into a porn site

        • 2007-06-21 17236, 2007

      • ojnkpjg
        i had the most messed up dreams on account of it

      • ojnkpjg
        i think the worst thing i've ever seen is this picture of a guy who had a motorcycle accident

        • 2007-06-21 17229, 2007

      • ojnkpjg
        and looked like he landed face first and skidded a few hundred feet

        • 2007-06-21 17237, 2007

      • ojnkpjg
        i don't think i'll ever be able to rid myself of that image

      • cooperaa
        I've seen that before, but I'm pretty sure it was burned into my brain as "shit in mouth girl"

        • 2007-06-21 17229, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        "Awwww" is a "cute" noise.

      • cooperaa
        it was a sigh of pity for myself

        • 2007-06-21 17214, 2007

      • cooperaa
        some might refer to it as "self-pity", but not I

        • 2007-06-21 17225, 2007

      • ruaok
        BrianFreud: amateurish!

        • 2007-06-21 17252, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        oh, that's right, too - .cx *finally* shut the site down

        • 2007-06-21 17208, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        .fr is up.

        • 2007-06-21 17236, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        I hope you didn't click any of those, ruaok. :/

        • 2007-06-21 17240, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        though, you know the BBC... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/14/Bbc…

      • FauxFaux
        That was comical.

      • Jugdish
        ummm...can someone tell me what's going on here? http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=7071206

        • 2007-06-21 17228, 2007

      • Jugdish
        why does the label still exist?

        • 2007-06-21 17209, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        Jugdish: Things only cancel once/hour, give it an hour or so.

        • 2007-06-21 17232, 2007

      • Jugdish
        it just went from "To be cancelled" to "Cancelled"

        • 2007-06-21 17239, 2007

      • Jugdish
        shouldn't "Cancelled" mean it's gone?

        • 2007-06-21 17251, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        ummm, yeah...

        • 2007-06-21 17252, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        Dunno, I've only heard people say that line above, no idea what it means.

        • 2007-06-21 17257, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        and it isn't...

        • 2007-06-21 17206, 2007

      • drsaunde
        no i've seen labels that have been cancelled and/or voted down that stayed in the system

        • 2007-06-21 17215, 2007

      • drsaunde
        i thought it was a known bug

        • 2007-06-21 17218, 2007

      • Jugdish
        usually it's when there's something listed under them though

        • 2007-06-21 17228, 2007

      • Jugdish
        labels are like a weed! once you make them you can't get rid of 'em!

        • 2007-06-21 17231, 2007

      • drsaunde
        nope....blank ones like that

        • 2007-06-21 17251, 2007

      • drsaunde
        best way to get rid of them is to merge it into another one :-)

        • 2007-06-21 17257, 2007

      • Jugdish
        k

        • 2007-06-21 17200, 2007

      • cooperaa
        modbot doesn't like removing labels?

        • 2007-06-21 17213, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        faux: any chance of a listing of empty labels needing merging?

        • 2007-06-21 17231, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        Empty labels, could be fun.

        • 2007-06-21 17233, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        If that's true, I know I've prob made a few

        • 2007-06-21 17229, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        drsaunde: doesn't really matter what label we merge them to, does it?

        • 2007-06-21 17236, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        or do bad aliases get created?

        • 2007-06-21 17211, 2007

      • cooperaa
        Jugdish: approve vote option script? ;)

        • 2007-06-21 17228, 2007

      • Jugdish
        no i was referring to a new report for empty labels

        • 2007-06-21 17233, 2007

      • cooperaa
        I know

        • 2007-06-21 17238, 2007

      • Jugdish
        pshaw!

        • 2007-06-21 17242, 2007

      • cooperaa
        :)

        • 2007-06-21 17210, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        The way I was thinking of writing the report turns up an empty result set.

        • 2007-06-21 17211, 2007

      • cooperaa
        it's okay, I'm in no hurry to help reduce everyone else's workload by shortening the open edit queue

        • 2007-06-21 17218, 2007

      • cooperaa
        ;)

        • 2007-06-21 17228, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        That's labels that don't have a release event against them, what definition would you use?

        • 2007-06-21 17255, 2007

      • Jugdish
        so what's the point of even voting on "Add Label" edits? they're going to stay around no matter what

        • 2007-06-21 17219, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        good question

        • 2007-06-21 17226, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        There are no labels that don't have release events, Jugdish.#

        • 2007-06-21 17235, 2007

      • Jugdish
        i don't believe it

        • 2007-06-21 17237, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        not true

        • 2007-06-21 17251, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        the label that cancelled edit created has nadda

        • 2007-06-21 17252, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        Either that, or I fail at database.

        • 2007-06-21 17243, 2007

      • Jugdish
        i've been seeing an increasing amount of those

        • 2007-06-21 17211, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        Mm, yep. /me queues.

        • 2007-06-21 17211, 2007

      • drsaunde
        brian: The only reason I said merge into another is because the cancelled and voted down ones I found were done so because they were duplicates...so it was a simple solution to merge laker

        • 2007-06-21 17209, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        I cancelled the label add, as I screwed up the sortname (bad copy/paste).

        • 2007-06-21 17212, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        then I readded it.

        • 2007-06-21 17219, 2007

      • BrianFreud

        that seems...not right

        • 2007-06-21 17221, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        yeah

        • 2007-06-21 17222, 2007

      • FauxFaux can't help with the empty labels, as there aren't any. :/

      • BrianFreud
        and 7070707 cancelled 45 minutes after 7070711 created the new label...

        • 2007-06-21 17252, 2007

      • Jugdish
        i wonder if it was the fact that they were the same label name

        • 2007-06-21 17255, 2007

      • Jugdish
        but different sortnames

        • 2007-06-21 17259, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        no idea

        • 2007-06-21 17202, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        very wierd though

        • 2007-06-21 17220, 2007

      • Jugdish
        yeah, definitely not working correctly O_o

        • 2007-06-21 17220, 2007

      • BrianFreud
        if 7070707 wasn't cancelled yet, and 7070711 was already created, it ought to at least have the next labelid, not already reusing the same one

        what's with the some labels that have long #'s after their names?

        • 2007-06-21 17203, 2007

        Those are the release barcodes.

        any way you can do a "has UPC, no ASIN" and "has ASIN, no UPC" report?

        • 2007-06-21 17215, 2007

      • FauxFaux
        Where's the UPC shown on the site? Or the barcode?

        Last Chance Records uses LCR - http://musicbrainz.org/show/label/?labelid=265 - but that wasn't the one i was thinking of

      • BrianFreud wonders, with all the various easy things we see that are wrong, is the terminology just so confusing for newbies somehow?

        • 2007-06-21 17201, 2007

      • Jugdish
        i don't think the fault is with our terminology

        i think it occurs from looking at album covers, not sure where the cat # is, seeing some number "LC0000" and assuming it must be it

        it's called empty spot syndrome

        • 2007-06-21 17240, 2007

      • Jugdish
        or the ASINs reported as cat #'s on crappy websites

        I had a label owner who is entering his own stuff today ask me if he really had to go dredge up the date of the release parties just so he could add release events
