jim6918 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Maybe, I am just whinning here, but I have shared about 20 sequences over the past couple of years with people who posted here, and not once did anybody say thanks. I have had people give me sequences, and I always sent a message back, even if the sequence wasn't that good to say thanks. I sent a sequence to a guy just recently who was practically begging for one and I never even heard if he opened it. I don't think I will be sharing anything in the future.

jimswinder Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 There are ungrateful people in the world...no getting around it.If you let "those" people have an influence on how you live your life, then "they" win...You want "them" to win? I always find when sharing, it is best not to expect anything in return...If you are expecting something back, for me, it takes away the reason of giving in the first place...

Rick Childers Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 The more we share, the better we all can do. I have learned a lot from the knowledge shared here. For all those who have not said Thank You for what you have shared. . . I say Thank You to you for sharing. I have had more challenges this year than any other year, and I am struggling to get it done. It has been made much easier than it would have been had this forum not been here. On the other hand, this year has been much more difficult because of all the great ideas I have found that I am trying to implement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what we're here for my friend!Jeff I appreciate the kind words. I remember the first 6 months or so (before Show 1) when I stared rather dumbly at the LOR Sequence Editor not having the faintest idea where I was going to start. Thank god for the likes of Richard Holdman's sequences, George Simmons, Brian Mitchell, Rayguns, and others who generously shared their sequences with me. It was from their work that I learned to sequence, and unashamedly plagarized their work, just becuase it was so damn good.Now we have to worry about sharing work with somebody who might take our blood sweat and tears, and put it up for sale someplace.

Then there are others that are grateful and become friends. It is what it is I guess. Unfortunately human nature takes *all* kinds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crackchecker Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Well Jim, if I'm one than I apologize. And thank you for all you do here...As of late, I have made an effort to give credit where credit is due on all my sequences I've borrowed anything off of.

yukon Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Jim,Glad you reminded me to say thanks again as I have not used or asked for anyone's sequences here but I have asked for a ton of information and always received a very prompt and informative respsonse from fellow members. I do appreciate all the people who have offered the time to post their new ideas and discoveries in this forum because without them I wold be lost. Whenever someone askes me "How do you do it" I refer back to the "group" I belong to and where the ideas come from. Thanks to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friskybri Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I know I have always made a point to say thanks 2 times. I gave one guy on here 8 sequences and not one thanks or when he said he would send some of his he didn't. Then he had the balls to try to friend me on facebook. There are a few that just dont get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khawes Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Saying thanks can make someone's day....I took my kids to see TSO in San Jose last Sunday. The violinist, on her way back to the stage, stopped in front of my daughter and played to her for 4 seconds and then gave her a high five. I sent Asha (the violinist) a note via her website Monday morning to thank her and to let her know how those 5 seconds had made a huge impact on my daughter. Asha wrote me back on Tuesday saying "... That was one of the nicest emails I've ever received and completely made my day... "A simple thank you really does go a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bretk Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 To all of you....Thank you! You have made a great difference for this newbie! I ran my first show tonight, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without all your help.Bret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddmoon Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Jim, I do not believe that I have asked you sequences, but just in case I have thanks.Any of us that have been here for a while have received requests for sequences. I have seen a few of mine re-posted and put up for sale for profit. Never quite understood that since I do not believe that any of my sequences that I have created myself were worthy being for sale.There have been many who have shared and Richard Holdman is the reason I made the jump into sequencing and he has been very generous and helpful with both sharing his sequences and his knowledge.Thanks to all of you who have shared your knowledge and sequences.
