Re: Points clarification

2003-02-01 by edibennardo <endiendi@tin.it>

From previous messages posted on this list in the last two years it 
became clear to me that Paul did consider modules above 200$ just 
like "taboo modules" for the point policy, I remember once he wrote 
that a Vco couldn't be cumulated with a less expensive module up to 
400 $ with 20 points, I don't see the reason for this but it seems 
that Elhardt could get this opportunity and I'm glad for him of 
course.. but nobody had ever asked Paul to invent a points policy, he 
did it to encourage and he set the rules so I think he should be more 
precise in specifying what he really wants to do, i.e. aware of the 
implicit limitations, since I have 11 points I'm waiting to reach 20 
and get two free 440s, I think this is possible, and I didn't even 
think of buying a 389$ module with a 50%off with my 11 points though 
it would be more convenient to me at the moment because I got from 
the messages that Paul would say :"No, this is not possible" but if 
we want to be very strict "any module" means "any module" and I 
perfectly understand that people who have purchased a lot of modules 
like I think Joe Pavone did feel to be more limited by the points 
policy while they should be worthy of more encouragement.
Still I'd suggest to give more than one point to very expensive 
modules. Enrico (Italy)
