well just to have a quick say here...
i've got into a few arguements on here , and nothing is more annoying than trying to make a point to someone who just can not get their head around what it is you are actually saying!
so yeah discussions can get a bit difficult sometimes , i think that's called "real life" isn't it?
anyway overall i haven't found the forum so bad although this section could perhaps learn a little from the acid techno section which always seems to be quite jovial ...... and the odd stupid post sometimes doesn't go amiss either.
there did used to be a bit more humour in here i don't know what happened to that (did jeff mills steal it?)
and sam..... as much as i appreciate the difficult job you do here
i will only say this once , you need to lighten up a bit mate. ( sorry about that)
just one more thing
perhaps sticking to the topics will actually help a bit , i just reckon you get something out of a discussion that's focused , for instance what's all this reeko stuff in this post all about????
ok there was a point in there but..........
also i have always agreed with not segregating the forum and was partly responsible for the acid techno forum not being separated the first time round...in fact i'd like to see all the "techno" forums compiled as we could all learn from each others attitudes to life as well as our music.

also there are a whole load of old names who seem to be absent these days that's what worries me really.
if it's just gonna be the same 20 people , it's fine , but for me i'm looking for a bit more than just an msn session
know what i mean?
