    Be as negative as you want, just don’t personally attack other forum members while you’re doing it.

    Except that very often just expressing an opposing viewpoint is seen as a personal attack. Then if a few people share that opinion it gets characterized by someone as a pile-on. I read some of these downward spirals carefully and they often begin with this pattern.

    That said, my sarcasm is more than too passive-aggressive far too often. I'm tryin' to get over that, and failing spectacularly, as evidenced in this thread. 😂

    Let's see if I can just shut up now.

    Has it gone too far, are you happy being manipulated or should we be treated like adults and discussions left to flourish?

    Someone please start an epic soundtrack production thread for that movie!
    I would participate I think, though I'm not sure I could do it justice.

    We need a thread where everyone takes turns writing a line to the movie and then we make a soundtrack for it. In theaters this summer. Brought to you buy ABF. Based on a short novella by NannyState.

    January 11 was the last thread closure, and that one had clearly violated the forum guidelines.
    January 5 one thread closed that had descended into nothing but personal bickering.
    One thread closed in all of December.
    Out of more than 300 threads, 5 closed over two months.

    Hardly an epidemic.

    Lunar Lander thread closed today. No clear offense; I'm guessing OP wants to know exactly why.

    One principle in sociology is that the very act of discipline will give the group information about where the line between conformity and deviance is drawn. Another is that disciplining deviants builds solidarity among the group.

    In my experience, this is not a nanny state board. There are far worse. Lines would be my first example of such.

    Yes, I already mentioned that a few posts earlier. Two threads to be exact, and presumably the trigger for this thread.

    Nice! How'd you do that so fast? 😎
    The only proper way to end the track would have been a sudden cut off before the real end though.

  • The movie should be basically a 90 minute teaser that never actually gets to the plot so there’s just anticipation building and building and then, boom. Credits. No release. And then the closing music ends with a diminished chord so the music never resolves either. And there is no veiled message in the movie either, it’s just really funny to me and my dry sense of humor.

    I do work pretty quick … my patches generally take a couple of minutes for instance !

    All the Iceworks synths except Lorentz were used , along with Minibit

  • The tone of the Audiobus forum is the best it’s ever been IMO. If you want to rant, go do so on X etc.

    I think that's what the OP's complaint is.

    Look at them all pat each other on the back.

    Im the kind of guy who roots for the underdog whoever it is.

    Its easy to go with the flow. Enjoy your low iq group think. You got lots of friends though!

  • Underdog?

    Rooting?

    “In a world where users of a niche online music forum called ABF must question what has become of their beloved community, when less than 5 threads have been deleted, the the real question looms large over one user who dares to go where no man has gone before, to just asking the real questions…

    WHAT IF ABF has become a Nanny State?”

  • However the plot goes down, Fran Drescher is going to play the lead

    I'd say it is probably just as easy to "root for the underdog, whoever it is" as it is to "go with the flow".

    Neither takes much effort. :smiley:

    Why wouldn’t you guys address OPs concern instead of making a mockery of it all?

    What concerns? I did give a serious response. OP chose not to respond.

    I am not sure what makes OP some sort of underdog to root for? They chose a trollish way to raise an issue . I gave what I thought was a thoughtful reply? What is your quibble with what I said?

    Lol. Actually it takes a lot of effort to go against the norm. But maybe you don’t have any experience, so its all the same to you

    Its so strange to see the people who pretend to be so inclusive attack others

    Probably because the OP made a sock puppet account with an overblown name to make a super dramatic and hyperbolized comment that made a lot of generalizations about the forum as a whole? Is it that hard to see?

    I’m 99.99999999999999999% sure if the OP had used their actual account and respectfully voiced a concern then people would’ve acted accordingly. Is that how you generally go about making your voice heard as well? I mean…cmon now lol
