where oh where are the topics that are the cause for such nice debates? And where did the nacmat-type topics go? I find that I have to look really hard to find something worth replying too. |

debates mean disagreements, disagreements mean bans! :-) |

- lol tab :P - nacmat, I love your "top5/favorite" topics, only you can make 'em fun. - titsworth, I know there's the older ones that are good, but I don't like covering old ground, we need new impulses |

the way i see it people here rarely ever cover new ground. it's just the same topics done not as well. look at the "idm influence in other music" topic on the front page. i even linked a better discussion of the exact same topic from 2 weeks before and people still continued to take stabs in the dark at the topic (again, covered in full just a few days before). so i don't believe the "new impulses" explanation myself. it seems whenever people bring up something that really is new almost no one replies cos they don't know what to say. |

I notice this aswell, I see so many topics that I've already responded to in the past in some other form and it just seems a little redundant to respond again |

i find it really tempting to chime in when someone says something that is inaccurate (eg: charlie clouser remixed "judith" by APC.. nyet, it was danny lohner and joshua eustis) or when someone wants advice, but in the end it's just so pointless and wasteful of my time. someone will just ask again later. |

yeah its really difficult to look for a topic, then again I dont even know how to use the "favorites" I thought I did and once I was gonna use it I was confoooosed |

ok so forget the new ground Tits, just look at the freshest topics atm. I'm sure you'll agree that topics like "sex with an album", "I've been with my g/f","PAIN","red wine","behold a pale horse" (etc. etc. the list goes on) aren't exactly the greatest and most inspiring topics of late |
||||||||
|

even this topic is overdone |
||||||||
|

agreed; it rehashes and plenty of others. |

What about the Zelda topic? That's been going strong for some months now. A serious exploration of mechanics, games as fine art, and Nintendo politics. |

And of course certain topics are going to pop up again; we get a deluge of inquisitive new members every day not satisfied with an erratic search engine or prissy authorities. They're testing the water, trying to acclimate themselves to the licentious ant farm that is xltronic. If you want to enrich the soil here, go ahead and do so - I could use some fresh brain fodder. Stop sniffing around for an interesting topic to latch on to and create one yourself. |

click "CREATED BY" to sort topics by author. 30700-31055 is all me baby. notice how many topics i made that were genuinely new or different. now notice how few replies the topic got. like a lot of people, i've steered away from raising new discussions because people just don't care. to clarify, i didn't say in this thread that all the topics that stay active are boring. i participate in some of them, i think they're good discussions. it's just that most of them are recycled old topics. if people want to know something they should use the search function here or even google (or all music guide) before creating a new thread about it. people who've been here longer than a day should know how to resurrect old discussions instead of posting new, identical topics. |

It's a complete mystery to me why some topics become popular and some die unnoticed. It has fairly little to do with the first post i think. There can 10 identical topics about an autechre-track that get almost no response... and then suddenly the 11th similar topic sparks a long and interesting discussion. It's a matter of luck i think... which people are online and what they have to say, and how they respond to eachother. But if you're only looking at the subjects of new topics... i really don't think they have been getting any worse (or any better) lately. |
