is it always the lurkers who never contribute solutions to Finale problems
(or contribute to the discussion in any way whatsoever) who feel entitled to
come out of the woodwork to complain about allegedly off-topic discussions?
Who died and made you thread cop?"

Considering the large number of posts on apparently a Sibelius question
(there was no reference to Finale comparisons in the subject) and not being
a Sibelius user, I ignored the initial posts, since I do not have the time
to spend reading everything that comes through. I only read what is
relevant to my work. Does that make me a 'lurker'? How many of you
actually read everything?
I do not consider myself an expert user of Finale (and I am still using 2002
since there have been no useful updates to the product - in my opinion) so I
usually only participate in discussions of a musical rather than technical
nature. Does that make me a 'lurker'? I was quite happy to accept the
opinion that the Sibelius discussion was indeed relevant, but others have
made a mountain out of a mole hill.
As far as 'changing the discussion by asking a question' is concerned, I do
not want to add even more volume, making it more likely that useful
discussions will be missed. I am more concerned with reducing the volume of
mail coming in.
A simple, 'It's relevant!' would have sufficed. No doubt I shall now go
back to lurking, until I can think of some other way of generating even more
junk than my simple (?) question.
