Sign in to disble this ad
I propose that whenever someone feels the need to post a thread with a Youtube link that says "Wow look at this bad bass playing", that the thread starter must also post a link of their playing.
We're all allowed to like or dislike music. But when you go on a public board to trash the work OTHER people have done (regardless of what you think of it), you better be prepared to "put up or shut up", as they say.
Everyone's a tough guy on the internet. |

| | | Especially YOU. How dare you bash other people's opinions on people's bad playing.  |

But in the end, this is just some silly online forum. Who gives a **** if some chump chooses to bash what he thinks is a bad player? I say just sit back and enjoy the lashing they get for posting a stupid thread.

| Oh, I misunderstood the original post. I thought "bad" meant horrible, talentless, sloppy playing. (I don't hang around here much)

It means we have the right to say how bad other players suck, because we KNOW what it means to suck.
