What Is Talk Bass Really here for?

Sign in to disble this ad
Is it to learn?

Is it to inform?

Is it to meet kool people who happen to play the same instrument as you?

Is it to disrespect fellow tb members?

Is it to just simply be a jerk to other members because you can?

Is it to possibly share real world info and experience from the music biz?

It's here to serve as a medium for people to interact and exchange information. What happens in addition to that is just icing on the cake.

All the above. As I've heard a lot of TB'ers say, a thick skin is needed on the interwebz. Now, step off, wanker. KIDDING!

Google kept taking me here when I was seeking answers regarding playing bass guitar, and buying and maintaining equipment.

It's a good forum, but all internet forums can be for flaming and acting stupid.

I can't control what anyone posts.

I can, however, control what I post.

All of the above.

And also for people with agendas to go fishing in threads.

It is the cause of, and the answer to, all of my GAS issues...and it takes away from time I could spend playing bass.

Well, we all know that the truly "cool" people mainly hang out in OT. And I'm not even sure some of them even play the bass guitar all that much.

Hmmm, perhaps the Number One reason to log on: Stumbling across a thread where 5StringBlues has posted a picture of a redhead.
