Spill Your Guts: What You Really Think About MB members

With all the backlash at HHBH, I agree. Just ignore him and it won't bother you.

I find HHBH interesting sometimes though negative mostly and whacky. I don't get worked up by his posts, nor do I care much. Whatever.

Just fer the reckerd, i don't know exactly what caused HHBH to say all that nasty stuff, but i'm not about to take it personally. Do i deserve it? To be honest, i probably do in some way. I don't think his descriptions are totally accurate, but i see where they are coming from.

My issue stems more from the fact that this thread is a breeding ground for this type of stuff. As a working adult, i've never seen a bulletin board anywhere i've been employed which exists to facilitate the calling of people out. Anytime i've ever had a problem with someone (in real life) it's been dealt with in private. There's nothing constructive about this thread. It's just waiting for people to come in an trip the f*ck out and then be either ridiculed for it or agreed with.

If he had taken issue with my MO and addressed me in private i might have actually grown a bit. But i guess it's okay in that perhaps someone will just put this toxic dumping ground of a thread to rest. Besides, trollheart's thread about saying nice stuff is much better for everyone. I doubt it'll happen, but if i was a mod, i'd be trying to shine that kinda light instead.

Peace.

It's a breeding ground for this kind of stuff because members can't seem to take things negatively even though it's an honesty thread.

It's nice that certain people can be so cool calm and collective that they shit ice cubes when someone says something negative about them but it's a natural reaction to feel like you have to defend yourself against a negative claim whether it be jokingly in stride or in a serious manner. Not for the fact that it's necessarily untrue but it's usually taking a small characteristic and wildly stretching it.

This thread used to be used for people saying nice stuff about each other also but since Trollheart made that other thread the majority of the negative stuff stays in here and reactions to it.

Also here comes cranky Big3 again to shake his cane at the youngins telling us that we should be using our energy to further music discussion while he sits up on his porch not doing the same thing that he's preaching about.

No it wasn't.
In fact if you look at a lot of the earlier posts some of them are the most brutally honest posts in this thread.

True as that may be, it wasn't limited to only negative viewpoints. There were some positive things mentioned as well.

Trollheart's thread is pretty much the same as this one but only reserved for the positive side of things when those opinions could be shared in this thread also like others have before.

**** that. Trolls are an integral part of the forum experience and can be more fun than shooting fish in a barrel. Without them we'd have to actually have music discussions. Where's the fun in that?

As a "working adult" maybe you should get a "working knowledge" of this thing your using called the Internet.
