I seriously hope this isn't another reference to my calling Unfan an idiot?

Seriously...

Nope. No worries. The situations I was thinking of didn't have anything to do with you, r-t. And the "idiot" name-calling refers to what Mr. dave said about feeling justified and no remorse over calling a new member an idiot.

Haha well, it took me a while to build up the confidence to start discussing music and politics again after my episodes with people like Unfan and Caveman, and the whole feminism incident.

Good. Glad to hear it.
Saves me from sticking those rolling pins you were waving around earlier to where the sun don't shine.

Ah, I was wondering if you enjoyed my women friends taking you out for a little "night clubbing." Apparently they found you, since I see you retained the rolling pins after they were done with them. Momentos, perhaps, of an occasion that turned out to be more than just beating you on the head?

Wash them first, please, if you ever intend to use them again on yourself.

I don't have much new to add to the talk, except to agree that a blog on the front page would be great. We have a wealth of great material in the journal and review sections that would draw people in if it was in a more prominent format.

I think MB is in great health at the moment, sure it might begin to feel a bit stale for the older members, but this is inevitable to a point. I've never come across an online community as balanced and interesting as this one, and the community of sharing that has sprung up is great.

Maybe because I've been here a while and know am not really intimidated by any of your bull**** opinions any more, but elitism doesn't seem to be a problem to me. The big response to Big3's Miley Cyrus and Kesha threads points to an openness to the pop side of pop culture.

So...this forum is a haven for elitists and music snobs?

You get all kinds, but I don't think of musicbanter as particularly bad. Actually, I was surprised how friendly people were when I first signed up.
