I will always try to err toward benevolence- but absolute power will eventually corrupt absolutely.

As true as it is written, I guess the discrepancy will always lie in what those standards are. I guess we've never had a problem with it before. As much fun as it is to show contempt towards authority, my love for the site will always reign, and I have to question these decisions. Thank you, and although I don't agree with your decision I respect it and you're within your rights to exact what you feel is just.

As you know - the community abdicated the right of Siftquistion to a supreme sovereign. Also, the "P" stand for probationary- I think it's OK to hold them to a minimal standard of conduct.

hmmm...interesting. I see where you're coming from, but it just seems so icky to ban based on tastelessness. I agree he or she wouldn't get the biggest heartfelt welcome on every comment they left but I didn't see anything over the line. Ignorant maybe, but still within our rules. Maybe something so fringe should go to siftquisition? I think that's the proper forum for deciding a punishment for a member that just doesn't get it. I think if they realize that we take this seriously, they might go from youtube troll, to Socratic pupil. Call me an idealist, but sometimes people could use a fair shot.

But it's your call, you the boss (even though I'm 1 higher than you in rank )

Don't know if I can agree with you on this one. I don't think I'm the only one either. Maybe I don't know all dimensions of this issue, but I think that this was an extreme punishment for somebody that didn't understand the rules clearly (not to mention didn't even do anything wrong).

The fact of the matter is, once somebody puts the time into getting 100 gold stars, I doubt their primary objective will be to "fuck shit up".

Secondly it costs 1 to 2 power points to promote a video, the chances of him/her having the amount needed to fill up a page are slim to none. Plus if he did accumulate that much, he may just deserve it.

Well, I don't have an MP3 player, so I just loaded up my entire collection in winamp and hit randomize playlist. Here's what I came up with:

1. Beatsystem - Endlessly Downward

This is exactly what it sounds like. It is a 3 minute track of a repeating loop of tones that sound like they are going downward, endlessly. It is kind of a auditory version of barbershop pole.

2. Transwave - The Rezwalker (London Live Remix)

The first of several classic goa trance tracks that ended up here. I do have a fair collection of old goa on here, I suppose, but they are unfairly represented in this list, which is just fine. I love this music.

3. Finski Disco - Speaking in Lungs

Now this is really really weird stuff. Finland psytrance is some of the most interesting music I've heard in years.

4. Acrid Abeyance - 303 Delight

Classic, screaming, hard acid techno music. 303 delight, indeed.

5. Pleiadians - Alcyone

Another classic goa track. Alcyone is the name of a star in the pleadian star cluster.

6. Cause 4 Concern - Research

Drum and bass.

7. St. Germain - Montego Bay Spleen

This is the closest thing to an embarassment on my list. OK, it's almost mainstream jazzy house music. It's cool though.

8. Chris Watson - Adult Cheetah resting by the Baobob tree.

An actual recording of a Cheetah, purring as it rests by a tree. If you turn it up loud, it sounds crazy- almost like you're in a cheetah's mouth!

9. Shpongle - Periscopes of Consciousness
10. Infected Mushroom - Semi Nice

These should be self-explanatory.

Wow, did I ever luck in. What a great list!
