are folk wanting an official sy board or not????
 

because you are going the right way about getting this place turned off and consigned to history....

what fuckwit called chris at 2 am, who, why why the fuck would you. thats fucking criminal activity, thats fucking moronic, i havent been here for a couple of days in the hope (vain) hope that the fucking stupid fuckers (scuse my skilled useage of the english language) would have copped on and pulled their head out of their homophobic assholes and seen the error of thyre ways but no, the situation has gone up a level.
do any of you actually know who chris habib is??????

so to all i say well done, fair play to you. way to go and really piss off someone who dedicates some of his time for us to use this page, well fucking done ......... bunch of pricks!!!!!

(this is directed at the perpertrators, not to the regular normal sy forum users)

end of paulybee rant number 268745

Heard.

I hold fast to this: AssBlaster had some extremely funny remarks and JOKES he made concerning Laila. She couldn't take the jokes, because they were offensive. So, instead of neg repping him (as he maintains she never did) she reported his antics to the board authorities. Sonic Youth, the band that we share a joint liking of decided to ban AssBlaster for above reasons. As far as the phone call, yeah WHOEVER did it (Hayden and Ass deny the actual phoning of Mr. Habib) it shouldn't have been done. I mean honestly, its very perturbing to hear about this sort of thing. What the hell did Habib ever do to you. Or maybe you want to talk to someone who actually knows Sonic Youth that well. In any case, NOT COOL, ZEUS!

Well said guys.
As Big PAULIEBEE put it: Do any of you actually know who chris habib is??????
CUNTS!!!
This shit has gotta stop!

There's nothing I can add to this.

This board has become pathetic, and the only reasons I keep coming back are that there's a lot of good music stuff gets discussed here and because there are about a dozen people here who I like and wouldn't want to lose sight of.

But it doesn't take many tossers to spoil a good thing, does it?

Apparently not.

well one big thing as to why things are, is beacuse most of the older forum members are talking to each other over IM and cell phones instead of a public forum

Please, expand on this statement a bit.

Do you mean older as in have been forum members for a long time, or older as in born a long time ago?

How recent is this development?

Is this a reaction to the state of the board, or the state of the board a reaction to the non-participation of older members?

Can you give examples?

I'm asking these questions seriously, as I'm genuinely taken aback by what you've said.

These things are ongoing.
People get to know each other, and choose to communicate in other ways due to the continuing devolution going on.
I think panto means older as in "longstanding." I know a lot of the people I have gotten to know better off the forum are still quite a bit younger than me, though I never really think about it.

Just in the short few weeks I've been here, I've seen some ridiculous, over threaded, over posted nonsense....misdirected youth angst throughout. Maybe in time it will pass. I enjoy goofin' as much as anyone, but sometime this shit has gone too far...sad.

I'll stick around and read all the interesting things SY related and not. But I do hate opening a forum page and seeing 3/4's of the threads about banning Assblaster, Hayden and their ilk. I spose this kind of post just eggs on that type of person....but maybe, just maybe they'll see the err of their ways and bug off...or post something substanitive....like an asssmoker !!!!!

Oh look at that!Isn't it it a beautiful Asssmoker?

Yeah, it's a shame. There was a time when this was one of the most interesting and stimulating musical discussion groups I had encountered. Not so much now.

if it gets shut down, it gets shut down. if you don't want it to be shut down, get your cunting asses in line, you little pricks.
you know who you are.

Agreed.

Humour has always had its place on the board though, but it's become increasingly puerile of late. It started with the porn and has just been getting worse and worse. The place has too many brainless directionless "rebels".

friggen soap opera

Yeah, I don't get the angst and anger against people on the board. We're not all going to like each other but we're all kind of on the same side here aren't we?

Besides, there's plenty of stuff to direct your anger at out there in the big bad world, including an idiotic U.S. president and a stupid war. If you all want to get angry, get angry about that.

yeah what a shame, hayden and his friends really did turn this place into a shit hole, Savage Clone you are one of the few reasons I still come to this board.

chris habib didn't do anything wrong, he was doing his fucking job as the admin of this board.

Likewise, my man.
Hell, we had ourselves a little snit once, but it all wound up cool because we know how to make nice and move on. You know, like reasonable people.

By the way man, I need to give you that slap happy humprhey stuff I said I was going to upload for you, I would have done it sooner, but all this shit has kept me away from here.

well i have met over dozen people from the SY boards over the years, many that i have met have become close friends, and one even became my girlfriend, so while the forum is nice to a point, it doesn't have that personable touch

as for the age thing, yeah it is a much older crowd then the median age on this board, I am the youngest in the group at 23 (in a week) where the average age of everyone else is about 28 (ironically the age of Jenn), and some of us rarely post let alone look at the new board with the exception of set lists, pics, and reviews (ie staying on the subject at hand)

for example, a group of us got a chalet at ATP UK 04, Jennthebenn, Naomi, Kelly (sisterk), Chris (krisyridols i think, it's been a while since i have talked to him) and I, and met up with Toilet & Bowels and pokkeherrie who had their own chalets, and we have been friends since, in-fact we are doing ATP this December again and we'll finally get to meet Iain in person

also have met people in the Midwest last time we were out there in 04, Mike (aka Rupert 'Styles" Stilinski or Eliminator Senior), Nicole (nerdosquare, who is still out there in noiseland, talked to her a couple months ago), Sonic Kurt, and Waltercarson

in other places, met Velcrobananapeels in Pittsburgh in 03, met !@#$% and his wife on several occasions (including giving Naomi, Jenn, and I a lift back to our motel in LA), got to meet Chris Lawrence in Seattle a couple weeks ago

soon shall meet up with Amy Vega in Brooklyn with Annie from Indie Cock, and we'll see who pops up in the next few weeks, hope to finally see krastian

didn't realize that was a strong statement that you were taken aback by, it's just a reflection of how close some of us are, and that we don't use the blue board for barely any of our communication (except for inciting the young ones)
