oh and (20) flatter your favorite members should have an extra line-
(20a) fawn over your favourite female member, dangerously bordering on the kind of creepy.

(1) is drukqs the pinnacle of aphexhood or a collection of filler tracks? Pinnacle. (2) are autechre fans mentally handicapped or the new intelligentsia? Mentally handicapped (although garbage EP is great).
(3) vsnares: does he suck, or what? Largely sucks. Good skills, but not very good "music" to listen to.
(4) are boc occult/pedophiliac/aliens? boc just make good music, let's leave it at that.
(5) who is your favorite asian softcorn star? I don't know any. I'm not into porn and I don't (unlike the vast majority of XLT posters it would seem) have a "thing" for asians.
(6) what is wrong with xltronic? Too many nonsense threads. Bitching when they're closed. Too many of the good members have left/stopped coming so frequently because of this.
what can be done to save it? Keep the crap to a minimum. Talking about music more than the war in Iraq- not everyone thinks that is the single most important topic in the world, this is a music board, respect that.
(7) why are we spending so much money on cds? Not enough of us know the joys of vinyl. Lots of us who have otherwise good willpower are very weak when it comes to warpmart orders. Especially at 4.30am after 8 cans of Stella. You know who you are.
(8) what should i do about my nonexistant/convoluted love-life? Get out of the house once in a while. Give up on "internet girlfriends". Make a point of breaking into a new circle of friends. Have a shave, cut your hair. Dress smartly. Drop some of your neurosis. Don't talk computers/idm to girls.

(9) what links would you like to recommend? This and this. (10) is it okay to download mp3s? So long as you can honestly say, you wouldn't buy the release (be it because it's out of press, too expensive, vinyl only etc.) if you couldn't have the MP3, then the answer is a resounding YES!
(11) list the top five of whatever. Top 5 Rockstar games. 1. GTA VC 2. Manhunt. 3. GTA 3. 4. GTA 1. 5. GTA 2. (12) link to your grating, disasterous mp3 track. I've not got any really gash ones online. Sorry. (13) bump the thread and beg us to listen. No, only select friends get to ehar my early work. (14) plaid and squarepusher: aren't they a bit overrated? Yes. (15) trumpet your next xltronic points milestone. 20,000. But I've never made a big deal about it. I post quality, not single word nonsense.
(16) isn't non-idm music primitive? (indie/prog rock is exempted.) A lot of it is, yes. Doesn't mean it's easy to make/less valid though.
(17) is america the new evil empire? Not to the extent most people think it is. (18) plead for tech support. I've heard it can be hard to chain electribes and synch them to another midi clock. I'm considering linking an ER-1 and EA-1 to a Vestax Faderboard, with the faderboard as the master. Anyone know if this'll work?
(19) why does anus_presley always double his r's? It's his "thing". (20) flatter your favorite members. Jand, Titsworth, Tibbar, Gwely Mernans and Horsefactory are some of the best. I apologise to the latter to writing him off as a "nonsense" member. He's the nearest to a substitute for the baron and wizards teeth that we have. (*sniff*)
