      • _mo throws hands in the air
      • 2005-11-17 32115, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        In a year's time, we'll have a new database schema.
      • 2005-11-17 32117, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        Won't we?
      • 2005-11-17 32119, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        STEEL CAGE MATCH
      • 2005-11-17 32120, 2005

      • _mo
        yes
      • 2005-11-17 32121, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        Isn't that your original argument?
      • 2005-11-17 32124, 2005

      • _mo
        so. why. not. wait
      • 2005-11-17 32132, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        BECAUSE WE KEEP LOSING INFORMATION!
      • 2005-11-17 32136, 2005

      • _mo
        why the freaking impatience?
      • 2005-11-17 32143, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        the information can be stored
      • 2005-11-17 32148, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        just not in the title
      • 2005-11-17 32149, 2005

      • _mo
        and recalled
      • 2005-11-17 32153, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        it can be stored using AR
      • 2005-11-17 32156, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        ojnkpjg: Yes, it can. But mo doesn't do that.
      • 2005-11-17 32159, 2005

        uhm
      • 2005-11-17 32107, 2005

      • _mo
        what now?
      • 2005-11-17 32108, 2005

      • nikki__
        arr
      • 2005-11-17 32114, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        sure feat. is ugly in the title
      • 2005-11-17 32115, 2005

      • inhouseuk
        rodbegbie: we might have a new schema, but, well have one hell of a lot of trouble populating it correctly
      • 2005-11-17 32120, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        When mo breaks up a X&Y artist, he doesn't add RAs
      • 2005-11-17 32121, 2005

      • nikki__
        I think tomorrow I should stay at home
      • 2005-11-17 32122, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        but if you add the right ARs, you don't lose anything
      • 2005-11-17 32128, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        you've got an ugly title, but all the data is there
      • 2005-11-17 32141, 2005

      • _mo
        if you r problem is with me, then say so. don't mess everybody else up
      • 2005-11-17 32143, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        ojnkpjg: If that was the actual case of what happened, I'd be fine.
      • 2005-11-17 32111, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        well, that could be the temporary recommendation
      • 2005-11-17 32115, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        _mo: I said that earlier. Your behaviour pissed me off, but it was the rules, so I wasn't going to complain.
      • 2005-11-17 32118, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        that'd be my vote, anyway
      • 2005-11-17 32131, 2005

      • _mo
        I admit to goign on mass modding sprees, and I also get wacked on the hand aboti that. but I mod feat. the same way I mod other things
      • 2005-11-17 32131, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        But it was your automoderation style that make me keep bringing this up.
      • 2005-11-17 32138, 2005

      • _mo
        and when I*have* the info. i add the info
      • 2005-11-17 32113, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        _mo: You want me to produce examples?
      • 2005-11-17 32117, 2005

      • _mo
        no
      • 2005-11-17 32122, 2005

      • _mo
        I ma wuirte aware of them
      • 2005-11-17 32128, 2005

      • _mo
        and the info is there
      • 2005-11-17 32131, 2005

      • _mo
        track mods

        <RodBegbie> But it was your automoderation style that make me keep bringing this up. <- no, it was official style
      • 2005-11-17 32137, 2005

      • _mo
        the old names soudl be there

      • RodBegbie
      • 2005-11-17 32108, 2005

      • inhouseuk
        rodbegbie: that is not a valid reason for proposing a change that affects everybody and will cause future problems with schema changes and data population
      • 2005-11-17 32109, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        Notice the lack of ARs
      • 2005-11-17 32116, 2005

      • _mo
        in later times I wil lprobably go over feated artisats.. and change them to the new scema. using the mod history as an example
      • 2005-11-17 32116, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        inhouseuk: It is.
      • 2005-11-17 32122, 2005

      • inhouseuk
        so, add them yourself
      • 2005-11-17 32134, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        My point is that _mo threw out information with his mod.
      • 2005-11-17 32154, 2005

      • inhouseuk
        no rodbegbie it isn't! are you a paying customer of MB data?
      • 2005-11-17 32104, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        or the original moderator didn't enter it
      • 2005-11-17 32106, 2005

      • _mo
        then ask peoep lto demote *my* automod status
      • 2005-11-17 32107, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        after he flattened it again, it lost any DB-level link

        I work with lots of other music metadata sources on a daily basis.

        hugely so, or I wouldn't be having this discussion.

      • HairMetalAddict
        He's been flippant all day. That's obviously not about to change, and why he never made auto-mod...

      • RodBegbie
        yes, it was a shame that a majority of people voted for me becoming an automod.

      • 2005-11-17 32145, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        They're all secret at the moment.

      • RodBegbie
        There are no publicly known paying customers.
      • 2005-11-17 32106, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        last.fm ain't paying yet.
      • 2005-11-17 32126, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        and their voices would be welcomed.
      • 2005-11-17 32147, 2005

      • _mo
        then why not ask them?
      • 2005-11-17 32150, 2005

        rodbegbie: don't you think it is a little silly to make such a change until these customers are known and how it might affect them?
      • 2005-11-17 32155, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        write the code to fully integrate AR :)
      • 2005-11-17 32103, 2005

      • inhouseuk
        agreed

      • 2005-11-17 32156, 2005

      • inhouseuk
        and populate AR with the artist / track relationship. It's already a 1:n solution
      • 2005-11-17 32156, 2005

      • RodBegbie
        inhouseuk: Perhaps, but there is no process to ask paying customers at the moment.
      • 2005-11-17 32157, 2005

      • ojnkpjg
        part of it

        It would open MB up to a lawsuit.

        it's interesting to notice that the people who never write code are cry the loudest (and have the most unfeasible ideas) for implementation
