Things you've learned Posting on TB

1) Don't be a Dick.....yes, I've violated this policy, but I've gotten better over the years.....no one likes a "Pain in the As@"

2) Just because you own it, or had owned it, doesn't mean you can defensively suggest if this product is for someone interested in it or not....try to stay neutral.....all equipment and music is subjective

3) I like the Carrots option....because ultimately, I don't care what you play or do.....as long its not illegal

What do you guys got?

A lot of folks get nit-picky when you use an artist's real name.

The merits or lack of re Fender P-bass are very controversial.

 

[Helix]

There's been a few times when I disagreed with a member, and later on I said..."hmm, that might be a good idea"

 

[Alkali Ike]

I've said it before, will say it again. TB is generally a very good safe harbor for civil debate and disagreement. Sensible (to me anyway) moderation makes this possible.

Dont give your 2 cents about effects pedals, that gets you in trouble...

I've learned that if someone posts a New Bass Day, the proper thing to do is post the largest picture I can find of my similar bass. I've learned that not everyone can eat criticism as well as they can serve it. I've learned that some people just like to hear themselves talk. I've learned that some people think that the year you joined TB is the year you started playing bass. I've also learned about strings and stuff.

I love this one....."Hey check out my new Bass" a few posts later, on the same thread....."Hey check out mine to"......let the OP enjoy his day in the sun.

I've learned that there are lots of folks on here who have an incredible amount of knowledge and wisdom about basses, amps and playing in bands. I've also learned that there are lots of folks on here who think they have an incredible amount of knowledge and wisdom, but don't know jack.

I've learned back-up bass debates are a sore spot for many here.

Few people like your bass pictures unless it has a tort pickguard?

 

[5544]

You shouldn't be picking up the bass at all unless you have mastered reading standard notation.

People who cannot read music are not musicians.

All tablature is wrong - even if you transcribe it from an original part you wrote.

I've learned a lot of people don't realize there's a place outside the USA

Even when you're right, YOU'RE WRONG!


A $100 bass slays a $1000 bass.
