I finally got around to reading Fight Club 2 this morning. Great covers (love David Mack), good art... story sucked. I was on board with the first couple issues, but it went downhill fast. I hated the last issue (maybe that was the point, idk).

It's not like we are feeling out the tastes of a unified, homogeneous fan base -- it's old school punks vs. teens wearing eyeliner (I think).

The most vinyl collective record that ever vinyl collected.

Thats what I said only couple of years ago. I now buy 10% of what I used to. And its not about economy, its just that record prices have doubled since I started 10 years ago and sooner or later you realise that you can buy pretty much the best digital playback system with that same money (99% of new music is recorded digital anyway and is available to download in high resolution for "free") and only cherry pick the essentials on vinyl. 

Looks like you are set as long as you keep your collection under 10 tapes.

This is one of the most overly dramatic threads I've seen on this board - and that's saying something.

Wait, He sold the records in the last week and people are going crazy?
 
I think Revelation still owes me some records from 1995 mailorder that I sent a money order in on

First, I'm not calling you out for a second. And I don't know this cat and agree that it's arguably sketchy and folks are on the hook for cash.
But I have to say that one of the thinks I hate about technology is that people know when I've seen a message and feel that means I need to respond to them immediately. 
I've got shit to do. I get a notification that I've gotten a message and I read it. Maybe I'm at the bar, maybe I'm working late...why do I owe you a response in under 10 hours. If there's money involved, yeah, I would expect a reply in 24 hours or I'd start to get pissed.
But there are a few things here that gives me pause. Much of this happened over Xmas and New Years, and some folks are worried about stuff they ordered 3 days ago.
If I was in your situation, I'd be getting antsy, but c'mon man...I get busy. Maybe I don't get around to responding to your email for a day or two. 
All that being said, there's only one person who can make this right.

You can use any old tape. Just put tape over the tabs and record away.

banana stand records is almost as cringey as pirate bacon records or bill murray zombie records

Prediction: All records will be delayed til 2017 due to vinyl plant backups.

Tascam >>> most brands

This just in:
 
Shadowbox Frame sales at all Michaels and Joanne's art & craft stores have skyrocketed a whopping 300%!!!

This would be cool if SS was putting out stuff from the 90s or very early 2000s.  Just not into anything else they put out unfortunately. 

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the baby blue and pink splatter in clear moon
Or asked the grinning clear in oxblood /450 bobcat why he grinned?

I have about .01% music taste in common with the posters in this thread.

Do you need me to break down the science behind a board going to shit?
In the year 2008, a then college junior, Paul decided he was interested in exploring the world of vinyl. None of his friends had records or record players so he needed somewhere to turn to for information. He did a search and to his amazement there was a young message board that focused on all his favorite bands and records. He enjoyed a couple years where the only bands being discussed were fat wreck, suburban home, Asian man, no idea, deathwish... But then a very slight change happened. the tastes of the board started to sway. Threads were made for blink 182, coheed, brand new, circa survive. Now Paul didn't mind those bands, but he wasn't in high school anymore so he wanted to leave that in the past. He thought Vc was an escape from teen scene emo mall pop punk of his earlier days. If only he knew that was only the beginning of the downfall of the board. Now people were searching for threads specific to blink 182. These people had no interest at all in any of the bands Paul currently liked. These new members then started branching out even more generic radio ready bands. Then people started joining the board to talk specifically about those crappy bands. Then those people made threads about straight up top 40 acts. Taking note in the popularity major labels decided to destroy the medium for the second time. Other labels specified in making soundtracks for breaking bad on vinyl. Now a place where Paul once loved for finding out about all the bands he dug turned into the warm turd known as the hobby.
While this board never had specific rules on what bands to cover it was understood that crap would not be tolerated. Over time that understanding faded until the board became unrecognizable.
To tie this together. The more shitty threads made the more shitty users join.
