Members NuSkoolTone Posted September 28, 2012 Members Share Posted September 28, 2012 Stating the obvious, and I know the reasons for it but didn't realize how bad it was! I posted on a topic yesterday and out of curiosity wanted to see if anyone followed up to my comments (No I didn't subscribe to the thread) and it's still only half-way down on the FIRST page with me as the last post almost a full day later! Years ago it would be pages and pages before even finding the thread, sometimes so bad I'd have to do a search.Guess this place just never recovered from the mass exodus(es).

As far as I can tell, the "forum upgrade" debacle of a year or two ago really cost this forum a lot of members. One thing I've learned in business is that customers are creatures of habit. If they expect you to be 'open' and then one day (or week) you're simply not, they'll go elsewhere and many won't come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wwwjd Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 oh THAT. I remember that. It was definitely one of the poorest selections of software I had ever seen online. I do hope they got some of their money back from the snake oil sales demons that convinced them it was such a great upgrade. I'm in InfoTech and I would NEVER have sold that crap to anybody. Too bad members left. Maybe more will come. Things go in cycles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members keybdwizrd Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Yes, it's more quiet here. A lot of the noise is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ElectricPuppy Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Well, on behalf of just me, myself, and I, I'd like to thank those of you that have stuck around and kept the dust bunnies at bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Synthaholic Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 Wow, this place REALLY doesn't get the traffic it used to anymore... Now, it's quality over quantity (excluding your humble narrator...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cresshead Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 i like it here...it's preferable to other forums when discussing new products, seems lass prone to outright arguments for little or no reason...some forums are just places to shout at others it seems!

Members NoRomoFan Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 The liberal infested political forums with daily ra ra chants for their chosen one doesn't help. That alone has made many of the conservative minded stay away. Of course that's probably the intent. It's good to see people actually discussing music and gear on here...

Members Franz Schiller Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 I still visit a lot. Though I don't partake very often because most topics are not relevant to my interests these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Purity_Control Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 I don't miss the whole threads of incessant argument the place could be filled with sometimes. And of course, Puppy banning me from posting pics of tied up women probably hasn;t helped things either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wwwjd Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 you mean they made the equip reviews WORSE then they already were?? I stopped looking at them BEFORE the "upgrade" because they were not... well, not so good, but at least useable.If posting abused looking women gets you banned..... maybe.... don't do it? Just an idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members XorAxAx Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 I used to post here, but became disillusioned with electronic music for a number of reasons: a mismatch of talent, the toy-like quality of today's gear, the non-immediacy of programming/sequencing, the lack of emphasis on performable music, the plague of DJs, etc. There are more rewarding hobbies out there. Got rid of all keys gear except a PC3, a piano, and a custom-built organ console that I use with Hauptwerk. Currently learning BWV 552. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members minimoog Posted September 29, 2012 Members Share Posted September 29, 2012 I'ts actually a bit of a good thing , becuase bullyings its waaaaay down, It's actually becomming a much friendlier place . Yea its surprising that a topic will stick for more than a day now on the same page , Before that i would be like in page 3 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
