What the hell does "make intelligent music talk" mean?

I think a renaming of the site is in order.

Congrats, you guys are digging a hole for this site's reputation and making this thread seem like a fraud. Name change to "Abrasive Music Talk," anyone?

I wrote "make intelligent music talk" because that's what I value and the newbies who get rude welcomes often post inane or self-promoting stuff. Do you want more activity and more meaningful threads on this site - yes or no?

Give it a rest. You're not helping yourself by being over critical. People have their opinions and you need to accept that. No one is going to hold your hand but to gain respect you need to respect us (mod's especially).

i think a pragmatic idea is that the bar at the top that has "user cp, blogging, new posts, search, quick links, and log out" be duplicated at the bottom of threads. less scrolling.

What does have hand-holding have to do with this?

Anyway, I repeat, Do you want more activity and more meaningful threads on this site - yes or no? (Because, if not, then I'm wasting energy in even spending much time on Music Banter.)

Of course we do. Bitching about the lack of discussion on here is not helping the cause. I can't make you like this place and I can't force you to stay here either.

I imagined you balling up your fist and screaming at the top of your lungs when you typed this and it was Hawt.
