I'm new on this forum and I have no clue what the clubs are about. So if someone can explain that to me that would be helpful. Thanks

What are the clubs for?
- Thread starter Bass Boss 101

Each one is different, some are just so people can add up a number some are so people with similar equipment can share tips tricks and tweaks etc.
Mainly it's just a fad

find one you like,post on it and ask for a number.....don't be discouraged by those initiation rites.....the scars are not that noticable
If you know what specifically your looking for there is a search tool on the right of every page.
Ok well i don't know how to post pictures for a thread to join
Host them externally and post the image URL like this:
They're just silliness.
A "club" is nothing but participating in a thread dedicated to a certain piece of gear (or occasionally something else) and asking someone for a number...which makes no difference to anything.
You can (as I do) participate in these threads without ever becoming a "member."
There are no benefits. There is no point. Some people think it's "fun," like collecting 5,729 "friends: on Facebook.
I've shunned the clubs myself. Any informative value they may have for the casual lurker is lost in the sheer volume of fluffy posts in most club threads.
I did hop on the Source Audio club thread in the TBFX portion but it is frequented by owner and one of the engineers from Source Audio and is pretty active and a good place to get answers, often times from the horse's mouth.
Also if you want to post pics in a thread, start a free account on a file hosting site such as Flikr, photobucket, imageshack, etc etc etc and copy and paste the "img" code in your post. I think there is a thread around here that goes into better detail for posting pics.

Yeah, clubs are rather useless.
OTOH, I think their value is simply to scroll through pages of cool pictures, especially if the pictures are based on a specific theme, like black and maple basses, or wild pickguard shapes.
