"My 600+ post on your board are 75% assistance/help replies to your boardmembers who unfortunately do not have any information to read/learn/listen. I swear, almost once a month some poor uninformed/misinformed soul will start a Melodies From Mars post asking where's track 12, where did it come from, or what videogames feature it's music. I'm just helping out fellow fans of electronic music when I can, even if it means posting at your board.
Compared to the amount of posts some other board members have (7000+) my paltry 600 are nothing to warrant my being an insect - think of me more as the guy who accidently steps in the pile of shit, and promptly finds some grass to wipe my boot clean.
Sorry Nacmat, I know I should be above such petty insults, but you can only be nice so long before you have to say something in response. Please don't take my issues I have with the management personally - the majority of xltronic posters are nice people and I enjoy talking/helping with them all the time."
NOO ! YOU ARE EITHER WITH, OR AGAINST US JOYREX !

I wish both sides would just step down. It's silly falling out over something like this. It's not like I'm a neutral party as I post exclusively here, but I can't help feel people are fanning the flames...

this rivalry is really silly, i mean both phob and joyrex (and all the members) know so much about this cool music and then they/we come down to this almost calling names kind of thing?

this is what joyrex posted on watmm a few miutes ago:
Would you all like to know how this 'rivalry' started between Phob and myselr? Some of you know, but since it's always good to dredge up the past:
Back when I started joyrex.com (june '99), I was working hard on my discography and I had painstakenly scanned in every aphex release I had, or scans friends sent me from their private collections. at the time, Phob's site (zap.to.aphex) had a nice (but incomplete) discography, missing some of the releases I had (specifically PowerPill and Joyrex J4 and J9i).
Not too long after I updated my discography, Phob's discography suddenly had those releases I added - now, there's nothing wrong with having duplicate discogs (it's bound to happen), but when I looked at the scans closer, I realized they were mine (more on this later).
I confronted Phob about this (first via email, then via my messageboard and then his), and he denied stealing anything, saying he had scanned them himself. I explained to him that unless he came clean about it, I would publically reveal how I knew they were stolen, and he eventually admitted publically that he had 'borrowed' them. (I knew they were mine because at the time I only had the 12" PowerPill release, and I had to scan it in two halves, and then digitally 'stitch' the cover back together in PhotoShop. However, in my rush to get these up on my site, I had forgotten to erase/colour correct the 'seam' on the PowerPill cover, and oddly enough, Phob's discog scan had the exact same seam, in the exact same place.
Ever since then, I have been very wary of Phob, and we've had our blow-ups in the past (like this one), but overall we've kept a level of maturity about our rivalry (kind of like saying 'hello' to the person you can't stand but know you have to be civil to).
Now that the past has been dredged up, and this petty feud still continues after 4 years, I wonder when it will end - it's really, really boring and a total waste of time.

that situation is really sad : (
that shit and flies comment was really low, but that stolen cover story wasn't better!!
and there must have been more than these... for the hate to persist after 4 years...
(needless to say, banning Joyrex from the xltronic board -as they suggested at watmm- would most definitely not arrange the situation.)
i believe Joyrex and Phobiazero are both talented webmasters and sensitive persons (i may be wrong about this, i don't know them well enough)... a competition between both sites wouldn't be necessarily a bad thing, but here it is rather like a war... and between two persons.
such quarrels can't be solved if the grudge remains... maybe, if they really want to end this war, i think they can do it.

That has kept things 'tense' over the years, with the occasional "I hate watmm" threads, or trashtalking about each site that goes on each mb.

ive seen it when i was in high school. its like roosters getting their feathers ruffled. i think everyone is guilty of it, to varying extents. it just gets things sticky, though. i hope the drama quiets down and the "calm" period we were experiencing continues. :)
