Pinterest.

Seriously. It's seriously flip-hot.

In my opinion it's better than it used to be a couple of years ago.

Because, back then, it was more populated by trolls and youngsters spamming it with bullshit of all sorts (including made-up stories of a boardie travelling around Europe, if you know what i'm talking about). Now it's more about music, I guess.

It happens... ;)

Seems to be good energies here still apart from the random train(wreck) or two..

Whatevs. Now that this forum is pure and more about the ARTS, show me where to read some interesting banter about music on here and I will hold your hand and follow. I've never realised you were so fascistic about forums. I'm curious about your views on married women who sneeze in public. Should they just take public stoning as massage to their backs?

this board is a zombie which will be decapitated way too long in the future to save the time of those of us addicted to it

Genteel Death 11.12.2015 04:32 PM

Run for cover! NOW!

dead_battery 11.12.2015 05:08 PM

Genteel Death 11.12.2015 05:33 PM

I've never loved you. You love me.

Genteel Death 11.12.2015 05:34 PM

I respect you though.

Last legs ?

Time to start standing on one's hand's I 'spose.

dead_battery 12.09.2015 02:06 PM

really odd that new users still sign up.

peppergreen/rebecca/asskiss is the last regular poster that isnt a sockpuppet or old user returned. last i noticed anywa y

noisereductions 12.11.2015 11:50 PM

I feel like Pepper came after louder, no? I don't remember when Forever signed up orgiinally.

I don't know. i can't keep track.

For sure tho the fam got smaller/tighter in the last 5 years.

We def had phases. The pre-this forum of course. But even here there were eras of heavy posters that haven't been around forever. Satana, and Zombot and davesnotdead and FloSlo and Hayden and and and um is viewtiful still around? So many folks come and gone. But this is always a sort of interesting place for me.

A place I can't seem to leave forever even when I thought I was gonna.

yeah.

theres noone to fill this role anymore. even the few users that could maybe do it dont have the energy or have personality issues that make them too trollgressive

the quality of the music thats posted here is and always has been mixed. you always have to wade through swamps of mainstream indie bilge and you will always get a million times more attention paid to people we should be ignoring eg. the scott weiland thread we have right now. the idea that we would still talk about stp and and b0lly cockburn or whatever he's called, the idea that these people are worth discussing is so sick and depressing.

there are cracks of light through these monolithic slabs of shit, dj rick used to post here, you still occasionally get the real stuff. i dont listen to anything other than vaporwave, old shoegaze and modern composition anymore and i dont care enough to post about it here.

Are Beatles forums dead? In the late 2020s there will be a SY resurgence. "Fuck....this band was so awesome for 30 motherfuckin' years Man, so like, where is the best site for them?" Somewhere down the line Pacific Coast Highway will be used by Tarantino and this place will will go ballistic.

this board is no longer capable of doing that anymore, judging by the best of 2015 lists.

does anyone actually WANT an sy resurgence in 2020? i want the future

wait what? are you saying because I posted my list of favorite albums - and you thought it was boring - that this entire forum is not capable of exposing each other to new things? That's kind of... ridiculous, man.
