Hey Yac ... Piss In My Face

I had no idea Rockafella Skank started musicbanter. I thought he was just a really..really.. old poster.

musicbanter.com is currently owned by a company named Advameg.

"Whoising" the domain some time back would give you the name and address of the owner of advameg.com (likely the head honcho), but he's found a way to make himself a little more invisible now. Either way, it's not someone who visits the site much.

Sorry to hear about your job, friend. I was laid off myself last year and its not a place anyone can comprehend until you're there. I don't know much about where you are, or where you're looking to go, but if you want to PM me.

I'm meeting with an old college friend tomorrow at Heathrow (sp?) and she works for a tech consultation firm. I'll ask if anythings open and pass the word on.

All the best.

I'm sure him and all the other ancient posters were mates, like Thrice had been here from the very beginning but wither he was friends with Rockafella Skank or not I don't know. I just assumed

They were all members of another forum if I remember correctly.

Yep... and I'm positive I posted Rockafella's old profile on what used to be Google's top result for 'music forums' around 2003-4 in this thread yesterday morning. It even had this site linked as his homepage. Who's shocked to find out a user named Thrice##### joined just a few weeks prior and only made a handful of posts before leaving too?

I'm not the only former member from that site who posts or lurks here...

I'm not saying it's a ripoff. Just about every single web forum out there is laid out the same way. I just think it's funny at how small the world sometimes becomes.

Better observation - how long will this comment last before being deleted? I didn't post the links to that 'other' forum like when I pointed out this coincidence yesterday. Though, that reaction KINDA makes it seems like I struck a nerve with the higher ups.

Whatever. You weren't that original, neither was that other forum who's popularity peak coincides with the start of this one, can the people running this place actually own up to that? Or will this just get deleted ASAP, again?

I don't see any deleted posts from you in this thread. Are you sure you didn't do the old "hit preview and then forget to submit" thing? I can't count the number of times I've done that. In fact I just did it earlier today.

That's entirely possible.

Though I seem to recall a way for Admins to delete posts in a way that Mods can't see from having worn both hats at that other place. Like I said, it's not a huge deal, more like the hilarious confirmation of a long standing sneaking suspicion.

I know exactly what you're talking about, and I agree 100%.

On a side note, I was doing some looking around and I found a questionable website value consulting site that has MB's total worth at around $14,000 USD.

I wonder how many active members we have? I guess you could divide that by 14,000 to find out how much you're worth.
