Agreed. Totally underrated poster, would love to be as knowledgeable about music as he is.

Poor Howard. I normally think his eccentricity is blood boiling. The poor guy goes ahead and makes a plainly evident tongue-in-cheek post and gets rained-on by Public Service Announcements from upper crust.

Howard, I know your pain my friend.

Also, Lisn, as I've shared with you in PM's, your one of the few decent people around here. Never change.

nobody understands a joke anymore

I read your post and understood that it was a joke. But fake-ripping on people, whether for the sake of trolling or just as a display of sarcasm, it just isn't that good a joke.

What I think of MB members -

Tore - I've never really appreciated how cool Tore actually is until fairly recently after talking to him in the IRC a little more. He's a really sound fellow and I like that he sticks around despite his obvious displeasure with how things are/were for the mod team.

Howard The Duck - Unfunny, and oblivious to that fact.

.

I have recently been getting to know Burning Down, Fred and Bob quite a bit through the shoutbox, along with a few others. Cool dudes of course.

Mankycaant is also growing on me as a poster (always liked him personally). Seems to be adding more detail to his posts, and he sends me DL links :)

It's fairly obvious that Howard was making a joke, in an attempt to divert tension away from the Ki and Urban situation, which was rather silly anyway. I think members need to chill out, after all this is just a site to chat about music and other trivial things. I understand that certain standards need to be kept, but it is a site for banter after all.

Except that I'm a girl :)

I thought dude was non gender specific? It's 2012 for Duce sake.
