In all of my 200-and-something years on this message board i have noticed one thing and one thing only, and this is that the mb never felt as safe, welcoming, or stable as it did when i first arrived. I have seen maidens turn to witches and wizards to fools. I have watched the sturdy structure of the aphex twin community start to crumble away. Maybe someday we'll learn to deal with these goblins, but for now I will be confined to rocks and sand, beneath the Billy Goats Gruff. |

yeah, you're right. There is something wrong. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its so longer as welcoming,not many people respond to me,even if i do.I do find that certain folk only talk to certain people,not that i care or anything.But what can you do............... |
||||||||
|

I've been around this MB for quite a while as well.... and I've seen much worse periods than now. It goes up and down - all the time. So, I have to disagree with you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its no longer....even,hehe |
||||||||
|
|

is that you mathew broderick? |
||||||||
|

I have to agree with McCabe When I came on this MB about 1,5 years ago (I guess..), it was more welcoming then now; people were more open-minded I think. |

I've been here for ages but i never post. I've been here for ages but I've never really known anyone, and no one really knows me (here) so I spose it's never really felt like "home" to me. nice board though. I think a similar thing is happening to watmm aswell. lots of ppl have moved to another board |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
so, what do You do to welcome new people? what do You do for making this a better place? or are You relaying on other members? sido dyas said something very true in a previous post: Ask not what aphextwin.nu can do for you , but what you can do for aphextwin.nu. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Phobia: I totally agree with that. I'm not posting here a lot, though, but my opinion is some sort of guess, also concluded from the difference of the topics (and the people) I found here 1 year ago and those things now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't forward all those question to you in specific, Mac, but the community in general. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

well I have been here for quite a while and all I can say to that is bollocks... a community is an organic entity..just like Pobiazero here say, there will be ebbs and flows ups and downs..people getting interested in some people, topics issues etc, and people losing interest in some people, topics and issues..some will be more popular than other, others more annoying than others others more popular AND annoying than others..all the rules of social dynamics that apply in offline communities..will all apply here..only the expeirence is more concentated and substrated.. I mean I barely ever get more than a few replies to anything I post..but those replies are usually just enough to lift me up out of the dumps..or anger me but in whatever way alter my mood, give me a different experience....which is one of the motives behind coming on a board such as this and posting |
||||||||

|
|
Yeah, but who had expected Amonbrune to act this way? I mean, he was just another polite kid to me. I still have my doubts about this having been somebody else... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've said this before in a different thread - this is quite a large community of quite well-versed people. there will always be a person who has some criticism on a topic you start up, and they won't be afraid to voice their opinion. but thats what happens on a healthy messageboard..! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I haven't been on for long, but it seems pretty cool to me... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've gotta agree with you on that one qrter ..! |
||||||||
|

This reminds me of when reflex (if it was him) went phyco on the old v4 board. Everyone thought it would fall to bits, but its still here and just as strong. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well i was here since v4 from about feb/march last year but i went away because not many of the original crew remained here for v5 plus i was away for about 3 months and while i was away the board changed over and then there were all these new people and i didnt know how to cope with it and i got really stressed trying to keep up with the messages and nobody would respond to my posts and i got really depressed so i went to tefosav. sorry |

its the fact that we need mods to maintain spamming and crap on the messageboard. i can't believe its come to this. i also can't believe i was a part of the spamming, myself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't believe what Amon did... I wish I was there at the time, actually... what the fuck was he smoking? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what did Amon do?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I masterminded the whole Amonbrune thing... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He was smoking somthing I gave him... He was my puppet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just saw a screen capture of the HEIGHT of his madness... like 40 senseless topics all over the place. I would have been one upset mod if I had to deal with that shit... I gotta talk to that boy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dont worry, It was harmless fun. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Did he get banned? I can't imagine him sticking around after THAT! I'm going to beat him up and steal his milk money! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think you guys are suffering from peter pan syndrom. the MB is loosing its glory and wonder the more and more time you spend around it. its loosing its stablity cause you know more about the people and such then you did when you first joined. it happens to everything.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah he's banned.... unfortunatly. When he relised he was in a bit of trouble with Jand, he just thought he'd better go out in style... hence the 40 topics. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He went out in a blaze of bullets, and his story will be forever told, brought down by nu generations through out all time. I feel glad to have been alive around such a time that history will never forget... :) |

Hey Res, Git on MSN ya hear?! ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what a bizarre occurance. the poor bastard lost his mind. as with anyhting change is always going to be resisted so maybe thats why you feel the board is breaking, it's just evolving, whats gonna happen when we have to switch over to the new web site! oh christ the horror! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
This whole amon thing has brought us closer, were all talking bout it! |
||||||||

I have been a member of many messageboards. I have to say this is THE absolute best one I have ever been on. No post unanswered unless it is pure shit. There is a smart and diverse crowd. Beautiful and efficient design. I don't have a whole lot of room to talk, being so new to the forum, however i can say that this has been my most positive msgboard experience in my many years tied to this box. I spent the other day reading pages and pages of older messages. Most of those people were assholes (nearly all are long gone). Furthermore, threads like this one can only serve to strengthen ties within the community. blabidybla blah... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
seems fine to me, same as it ever was... I love this community! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you got a point potato, this is a more intelligent board than most, and really inviting too, it didn't take me long to make friends here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is the greatest mb i know. so lets just not spoil it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this mb is the best gawddamm aphextwin.nu mb out there, gawddamit! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this board is a hell of alot better than watmm right now, i feel sorry to say it but it has just dried up there, yet this place has lots going on and not everything is pointless bollocks. so feel proud of what you have, phobia should be proud (and im sure he is) :) |

afx community breaking?? take a look at aol chatroom community!!! then the afx community will be like a family to ya! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah this place is fucking wicked! i do miss some of the old crew though.. especially wizards teeth |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this MB is not going down the toilet...especially if we all keep one important thought in MIND. respect for each other and for the MB! if that golden rule is followed it will continue to prosper. sure there will be trolls and people going crazy.....however those too will pass....ehehhe i find it to be filled with intelligent people who i've learned quite a bit from, that is my biggest compliment to the designer and the people that make up this place! |

Being a relative begginer in msgbrd community goings on, all I can say on the subject is this sort of thread is a healthy thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If it wasnt for this board, i wouldnt have really got into aphex twin, heard of venetian snares and had the tolerance for autechre for me to really get into them. Isnt this so lovely this thread. I think we should all have a big hug and perhaps shake hands. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
*hug* :)(: and also, good night to everyone (sleep awaits) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
big hugs ll round then :-~ |

As I'v posted b4, this is the by far the best on line community I've come across. (I agree w/ a lot of what p.de t. said) Remember everything is temporary; the good and the bad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the problem lies in the unfriendly attitude of certain people on this board towards newbies |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the yards and yards of bullshit topics totally swamping the interesting topics. Another top 5 topic anyone? |
