the passive-aggressiveness is kind of unsettling. everytime someone remarks about the negative things you say, you respond with something akin to 'i'm just joking, it's the internet, blah blah blah,' but when the shoe is on the other foot you just get offended.

kinda sucks that a kind heart felt letter to ilf thread turns into this troll shit.

No trolling bro. Just love. Don't let the bullshit get in the way of the pure brilliance that is the bro-love going on here.

ILF is cool,...but the novelty has started to wear off.
Coming from the heavily moderated church that is Talkbass to a relatively uncensored forum like this was refreshing,...but I'm realizing that there aren't really that many differences. People still get pissy with each other,...people still form friendships and bromances,...cliques of sheeple form around people who are witty or scathing, or who have similar opinions on gear (this is the element of discussion forums I despise the most,...the whole shepherd/sheeple thing). People still think "their" forum is going to hell in handbasket when a flurry of noobs join up. It's an eb and flow.
The one thing that I do notice with this forum over bigger ones is that by and large people really are into it for the music. Other gear talk forums,...most people just want to ream each other over the gear they use but there isn't a great deal of example of said gear in context outside the bedroom. I don't have a problem with that but for me personally; not using my gear is a waste of money.
I definitely do favor this place to other forums. I feel like I fit in here better than I do at other places even if the whole

on

thing went over my head.
And to HTS,...I like you too buddy. Thanks for the well wishes after my little procedure. That was really welcoming.
EDITED for spelling mistake and to add a smiley.

alright this is getting old, if you wanna talk crap do it openly, stop writing things when you know only a few will see it then editing it. Then saying "oh you guys, lulz." Take your own ironic advice and man up.

I'm not the dozen forum members crying and whining because they can't handle and old friend giving them a little shit.
Seriously... go reread this thread and pay attention to the real crybabies in the crowd
Still love you all the same.

Seriously though. It's all good my friends. Sometimes I get the feeling you guys are all pissed off and holding a grudge just because I decided to split a long time ago. I don't seem to remember all this animosity and taking shit so seriously before the deforum split.
... and to the new members who are jumping on the haterade band wagon... you guys need to realize I used to talk the worst shit with HT (and other old ILF members) back in the day and it never ended in such crybaby tears as this thread is heading in the direction in.
People taking shit way too personally... you guys seem to forget I'm not just one of you, I'm the reason you guys found each other in the first place.
So shut the fuck up and stop taking my shit talk so seriously and respect the hand that nourished your retarded asses to life.

honey, people know you and how you act, there're screenshots of your unedited posts floating around. Because again, you have a reputation for bitching and writing walls of text. Then once you feel a few people saw it, going back and fixing it up.
cute, talking about crybabies
yeah you created ILF,no ones denying that. But you had nothing to do with the way it is now.
