Personally, Ayn, you don’t have to worry about apologizing because I think you’re right. If you only knew there were persons from Narda on our mailing list, I’m sure you would have expressed your opinion in a more palatable manner… hindi ka rin naman kasi bastos, ‘di ba? Just opinionated ;) And that’s fine. Anyway, I re-read your post about Katwo and I think that person who reacted got it out of context a little… you said nakakahiya siya kung siya yung nagging vocalist ng candyaudioline. In a way, totoo naman yun in the sense that she may be too flamboyant for the band. Your comment was said in that context and you didn’t mean it as an attack on her person. But I feel that it was admirable of you to apologize just because it shows you’re civilized and care about what our listers think. Kailangan din naman natin silang respetuhin kasi they made the first step in reaching out to us by signing up for our mailing list. Pero siyempre, we can only do so much… we don’t have to bow down to their every complaint. I wrote that “prerogative” thing to remind everyone in the list that we are all entitled to express our opinions on the list, which necessarily means we have to take everything that’s said there with a grain of salt. If you want to apologize for what you say, that’s well and good… but people who demand it must also accept circumstances if you don’t. It just so happened that you did apologize… well, that helps public relations. In our mailing list, we practice pluralism hehe. We can’t help but do so because we chose an open membership. Marami tayong pananaw dun dahil iba-iba yung mga musical tastes natin. I didn’t write that to chastise you or that other person. It’s a reminder meant for all members.

Ok lang yun. Mailing list lang yun hehehe… astig nga kasi kahit papano active yung satin, tapos semi-intelligent discussion pa!
