RE: Presence's SHN server [The REAL reason he exists...]

["David Pietras" <softwareguy1122@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

What kind of response is this! Presence runs a VERY costly server
primarily from his own pocket and offers up quality shows for FREE! I
have Presence to thank for almost my entire Zeppelin boot collection.
Have you taken the time to read all of the information on his website?
He has almost everything Zep already. You are right, he does receive
many requests to join, on the website alone, not even counting what he
probably gets in email. So what if he ignored you and a few other
people. He's probably a busy man who doesn't have the time to respond
asinine comments such as this. Quit acting like a child and enjoy what
he provides us!

Primarily due to his Zeppelin-only SHN server, I'd guess Mr. "Presence" 
simply already has almost every Zepp show currently available, and only
if 
you emailed him about something 'new' would he become interested in you.
I 
know three others who also have been completely ignored by this guy
(myself 
included), and I can also assume he receives more than a few emails per
day 
with similar requests and doesn't want to take the time to respond nor
feels 
that it would be beneficial to him.

The man running this Zeppelin SHN server has a very shady past, and if 
enough people comment he's likely to respond back with some excuse or
remark 
himself.

I certainly like the idea of a Zeppelin-only SHN server, and I would
hope 
that something like it succeeds as other SHN servers (via ftp, 
DirectConnect, etc.) have for other bands.  But, being that it is
Zeppelin - 
a band unlike any other when it comes to obtaining 'unreleased' material
new 
or old - I really don't think it's going to work anywhere near as well 
unless someone very generous steps up and keeps it up.  I was hoping
that 
Mr. Presence would turn over a new leaf when I first heard of his idea,
but 
that certainly doesn't appear to be the case.  I hope I'm wrong.
