Between oaklandthumb & Two Fingers, that only leaves ring & pinky open.
Of course, you could always start your own hand.
It helps, but Twofingers never says which two! And I ain't volunteering for Pinkie...
His avatar suggests index and middle, which leaves ring and pinky. I'm not sure I want to be either one of those.

Again, if you see it, report it. We actually don’t know everything
. There have been a couple of times over the past few months that someone reported an avatar and we all looked it up. And we required a couple of those to be changed.
That is my complaint too. The search function can be a mess.
If I’m looking up a piece of gear to research most of the returns are classified ads. It would be great if those were listed under a separate search. You have to really dig in the search results to find message threads. I usually have to go to google and search for it there.
The oldskool forum format. But this is not TB specific.
Forum communities are about the members as much as they are about the subjects talked about.
Besides that I strongly feel the media like photo's , video- and soundclips have become much more common and vital over time so shouldn't be mere attachments but rather libraries and playlist.
The format of products like phpbb, xenforo, smf etc. do not reflect this very well and need a big overhaul.

Only two things come to mind at the moment:
- The option to edit an already-posted comment should remain available longer.
- Maybe this doesn't happen to many others here, but not long after I have logged in, I seem to get "bounced out" (i.e., logged out without my doing it). My member name is still displayed in the upper right-hand area of the TB window, but when I try to reply to a post, I get an error message saying "You must be logged in to do that." It gets very frustrating.

I dislike the “use the search” answers, mostly because it’s flippant and not helpful.
But I like to drop this when I can: I just go to google. Google “best bass for metal talkbass” and I get much better answers.
That’s it, I’m changing my user name to @25fingers!
It should be illegal to list a bass in the classifieds without giving the weight.

His, ahem, non-musical videos have much more egregious fakery, or so one hears.24657321[/URL], member: 317378"]You can't ignore him. He can make a Rickenbacker sound like a Jazz bass

Talksteelhead is just a better place for that IMNSHO.
I cannot tell if you're being facetious or serious. If your post is not a joke, I can only say two things in response:
- It is because of the warmth, friendliness, and helpfulness of the people in the Jack Casady Bass Club thread that I decided to become a registered TB user.
- Maybe just ignore those happy specific-bass-owner threads?
