|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Raleigh, NC | | | Thank You, TalkBassers For being level-headed cool folks to virtually hang out with. I just went through a painfully, stupidly annoying mountain-out-of-a-molehill episode with the oddly bitter owner and some members of another (non-music-related) forum that I frequent.
Just made me appreciate the awesomeness of talkbass that much more. That is all!

Recently checked out a forum about building custom computers and it was a war zone in there fighting over some processor and somethin or other about resolution. I certainly see what you're sayin tho!

Did I ever tell you about the time I had an onion tied to my belt?
It was the style at the time...

| | | | The problem with most forums is that so many participants REALLY think everyone should agree with them. Me? I could care less. It seems to be a trait with bass players. We're just used to dealing with the egos of imbeciles. We smile, get our point across and move on. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: Greenville, NC USA | | | You know, we have some "spirited" discussion here. But you're right. It rarely breaks down to simple name calling or really immature stuff. I frequent a couple of electronics forums as well. Boy does EVERYONE on those forums think they are the end all be all of electronics knowledge. And every single thread breaks down into a totally unrelated debate over one word in a poster's sentence that had nothing to do with the OP. I really enjoy even the people with whom I disagree here. And even if I come across and ticked off every now and then, I assure you I am not. I just have a sarcastic writing style. It sometimes doesn't translate well.
Either way, glad you enjoy it here as well. I know I do.
