I've been a member here since 2002-05-03. Thats seven years ago. I had to laugh because this morning when i woke up XLT popped into my head. I thought i would check it out since its always on the verge of the new version. Lo and behold I find this thread. This has to be an ongoing joke with you. For the last 6 of those 7 years you have been talking about updating this and the new version that. For all our patience and donations we are rewarded with: - v2 extended space (+260 pixels) - The wolfman - ads by goooooooogle!! I mean really... if you would have capitalized on the popularity of this website at its apex it would have been far more beneficial to everyone (yourself included) It just seems like an after thought now. Instead of the busy little metropolis it once was it more or less is the hole in the wall tourist attraction in bumfuck Iowa. You dont communicate with your own community (unless you have a different account for that) only to pop in with various rephlex info as if grant himself is giving you discounts to hype up the product. We on the other hand get halfassed vague posts about what you may or may not be doing with this site. Thats ok because being vauge and cryptic in this community is the cool thing to do. Its amazing that people still donate here considering the only reward to do so is the ability to post pictures |

But seriously... just now i almost corrected myself. Its been a while since i posted here. So i took five minutes and went through some posts. which was posted Nov last year is actually the only post that gives any insight at all. Last before that was 2007 when we were that he only received possibly $30 bucks over a 5 month span although the server bill was $145 a month and then a couple of posts down he states... "there will be one day when I can't afford it any longer and that would prolly mean Good Bye to Xltronic. Hopefully donatiions will get a bit better and people will pay attention to the ads a bit more. " But what has changed over these few years? I think probably only the people that have been around here long enough are the ones that actually care. But why expect to receive donations of any kind when there is nothing being shown for "the work" that is going on behind the scenes. Or perhaps interact with your own community a bit more then showing up to ban people that talk about skyfarmer. Perhaps its that all the old regulars have indeed lost interest in IDM as a whole and moved on. Its a genre thats been lackluster (LOL) for some time. That and people have gotten older and that silly antics and tomfoolery that were a staple of zilty have faded away. I tired of the music long ago but I always came back because this internet community had THE best group of people i have met online. I was guaranteed to laugh my ass off everyday. I would have updated the site or done whatever it takes to keep those people here and happy because at the end of the day this site is nothing without those people that post on it. I come back because I know Dan_belch will make me laugh, the jasons would say something great, elusive would post f42 and i just might see sylvia's tits. There is no way to recapture |

(Comment: Your message was downsized because it was too big! Thank you for your message!) there is no way to recapture that. Part of it is that these people are adults now. People are getting married and having babies. Its nuts. Phobia for this to ever work you need to become more active in your own community and stand by the deadlines you set up. Be more open around whats going on around here. People will respect you for that. I stopped posting here in part that alot of people i liked seeing were banned. Who cares if they were offensive or immature. The interaction between them and other users were great. If it was a slow music day then there were some guys who would rile everyone up with something and it would get people posting. When you remove that element then thats one less thing to chat about. What brought us here in the first place (IDM) is dying or dead. Warp saw that long ago when they stepped away from being an "IDM" only label. Maybe I dont even know what i am saying. But overall it wasnt XLT version 8.55 that brought me back it was people like Dan, the jasons, arf, the alex's, fleet, meems, elusive... actually i cant name them all. They know who they are. Thats the reason i have 27,000 posts. It had nothing to do with the music... although thats why some are there. It came down to the users. When they start leaving because nothing is progressing then your community suffers. My threads used to get buried beyond the fourth page and there used to be so many active users. Now... what really do you have? Take it into consideration phobia. It doesnt matter to me what you do because i'm not an "addict" anymore. I'm just an old relic that misses the laughs of the old days |

seriously - dnf was announced in 97 so it lasted a little bit longer for 3d realms to admit that it is dead that for phobs. but i think someone can already make a wikipedia entry about xlt being the site holding the record for delay between updates. |

i donated only once - but i felt it would be for a symbolic amount of cash for all the great spam, great mixes, great music and great people (=internet personas) i've seen/found/heard here during the +4 years i've been here. all of the positive above doesn't mean i feel Phobia has been fucking us about for a long time now. endless anouncements and promises. such a potential for an electronic music site which might've become legendary - and spoil it ? fuck. my vote is NAY or DUNNO |

stick around and you'll learn to appreciate the unmoderated version of xlt. v3 or no v3. i always assumed phobs to be tongue in cheek bullshitting us anyways. and it has a certain type of charm of course: the never ending story of the new xlt. like some twilight zone fantasy story. anyways lots of lesbian kisses and hugs to you, pandaboy |

let say also that the power of music at xltronic goes way beyond a site's update. personally i donated to keep it online, physically participating to the physically costs, its all if you put it down there might be another place where to meet of course, but if you don't put it down people could be lucky enough to keep on picking some neat little things that happen on this site time to time, time to time and time to time, that can make one's day, too keep this real and there will be something to pick for everyone, the prophet says. |
