Breezus Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Lmao. Anyway, for those who are genuinely pissed ... it's just a forum. Post counts mean nothing and there are worse things to worry about than other people's music tastes and "young newbies".

soundofsilver Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I know better than to try and make threads about most other genres, because it feels like there won't be any response. Thanks, opinions. "Thanks, Obama" is too easy. "Thanks, Satan" doesn't work for me. I'm not religulous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 N00bs gunna noob. My biggest issue is all the crap being pressed for movie soundtracks, video game soundtracks, doig cover albums, and all of record store day. But the squids on this boards eat this shit up and then lick the asshole to make sure they got it all. brandy and AlexH. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

himynameisShane Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Can't we all just get along? I know a lot of people on here don't like some of my tastes of music. I like pop punk. Sorry. But I'm not. Its what I enjoy. I'm not tied down to that though. I came to these boards to learn more about vinyl/records, to get info on new releases, etc, AND to get a broader taste of other genres. I have discovered new bands and music I never would have listened to if it wasn't for people on here. Just because we don't have the same ideal taste of music doesn't mean we can't find some common ground. ManhattanValley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Logan Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 and honestly satan/divesandfives we've never really had beef, we used to get along. shitting on knuckle puck and loving banner pilot. yeah, i don't like it when people use rape as a catch-all verb or call someone a pussy or a faggot and i will tell them that i dont like it. and honestly, i dont see how these boards cant be fun without that shit, and why they even need that to begin with. if i'm ruining people's experience here i will bow the fuck out and just lurk. my intention isnt to annoy all the *OG* pro boards posters, there's plenty of 16 year olds here for that. go blast no matter where we go, remember that punk music exists, be happy, and read the liner notes to dear boys. later muthafuckaaaaaassssss I dunno, the newbies feed my power so I'm partial to them. In other news, I miss these two terribly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynamitekid Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 But seriously, this place used to be more fun. Now I look at the new release page and all I see are represses and complaints. Most of the people I used to talk to are gone. Am I so out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I actually do miss Virgil...dude was open to anything on the boards (except for bashing Virgil)....at least he was genuinely enthused on puting out records of stuff he loved and artists he cared about. An absolute dreamer and idealist and a merchandiser, sure, certainly so. But he had genuine enthusiasm for starting VC. Hell, even the fucking co-op was sprung from a place of trying to get the board more involved with releases. I'm well aware that shit went sour the secon he started hemoraging money because he moved his operation from his house to apparently a warehouse that was WAY too fast of a growth spurt for his business to handle. Dude fucked up HARD, but he was also fairly active in this community. The Suburban Home day party I made it to at SXSW was a blast. Virgil hung out the whole time. Dude needed a financial planner or consultant like I need a bagel right now. But this board is now an online shop that opened a retail shop that only makes posts about whatever new overpriced reissue they're releasing....I've bought some of them.....some sound better than others, but they're not a label and I certainly don't feel they have the same passion about this whole vinyl thang. They're not interested in releasing albums they're passionate about, they're interested in releasing re-issues they'll probably make money on...not to say that's the worst thing in the world, but I feel like that mentality and mode of thinking is what brought an influx of SoundTrackers who buy during RSD and RSD BF and sporadically if any throughout the year as opposed to people who are passionate about music in general and happen to thoroughly enjoy vinyl as a preferred format. I understand there are great generalizations made in the above post and it doesn't call anybody in particular out (sans Virg and SRC)....but it's how I feel about this place dethrock, dynamitekid, mssskat184 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Alright, here we go. I've got my coffee, sat down at my desk... let's talk about Babby's little temper tantrum. First and foremost, your post is embarrassing as fuck. Like a lot of your posts lately. You might be the biggest fucking hypocrite on these forums and it cracks me up. I started to go through your posts just to make sure I wasn't about to go off with the wrong idea, but no, I couldn't even get past the first page of your posts without seeing you be a massive shitlord. You're mad... about people being mad... about flipping? You've stalked Kanye Kess across the fucking galaxy to shame spiral him for being a flipping wanker. And now you're going to post a VC-wide callout thread about giving people shit for complaining about flipping? That's not to say I disagree. If it's blatant and shitty, call people out. If someone is selling something for a profit, shut the fuck up and don't buy it - on that point I agree with you. "When this place was in it's prime" - Dear God where to start with this elitist bullshit. Your post reads like the saddest little hipster temper tantrum from someone who liked VC before it was cool! Do people complain about a lot of petty bullshit? Yes. And they get called out for it. Do some people get a little SJW tumblr around here and PC police? Yes. Sometimes it's warranted, sometimes it results in some pretty entertaining/enlightening conversations. I guess it's easy to miss that when you think you're so fucking edgy that everyone will laugh and pat you on the back when you go in a thread about how the use of "faggot" as a derogatory term is fucked up and say "lol you are all a bunch of faggots". You are so fucking edgy, man. Congratulations. As far as "the glory proboards days" You're so salty about the fucking boobies and butts threads getting locked and deleted. Grow the fuck up. What is wrong with you that you need to come to a forum ABOUT VINYL RECORDS for your spank bank material. Fuck off with that shit. The internet is literally filled to the overflowing brim with porn, I implore you to go find it elsewhere. "Lighten the fuck up, and listen to your records" says a guy whose last status update in July was "thinking about just selling everything. havent spun a reciord in months." So why are you here? You want everyone else to lighten up... but I don't see anyone else writing an "Open letter" crying and whining about the quality of their precious boards. Now let's touch on your "pop punk" comment. Do people listen to music you think is shitty? Yes. Do people listen to music I think is shitty? Yes. Who fucking cares. Poke fun, and be done with it. What your comment really speaks to is your fucking elitist ageism nonsense. You're a fucking month off of 31, dude. You're posting on the forums of a website that sells My Chemical Romance and Jimmy Eat World represses and you're pissed that there are teenagers here? Grow the fuck up. Half of your latest posts are you going around insulting Doman and Rezqua, on their fucking pictures and posts. Are you kidding me man? You're so fucking insecure with yourself that you need to go around picking internet fights with people who are LITERALLY half of your age? Am I the biggest fan of some of the stuff those guys posts? NO. But they are a hell of a lot more tolerable than some nearly-31 year old asshole having a mid-life tempter tantrum on VINYL RECORDS forums who doesn't even listen to his own vinyl. Go join somethingawful or 4chan if you want to post pictures of tits and asses and talk about your sexual adventures every day. I think it's safe to say that these forums aren't the place for it, and everyone is getting pretty tired of your elitist tr00 punX nonsense. So, chill out, let other people live their lives, and listen to your records. brandy, Hairy Potter, Team Avatar and 16 others 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Hundred Fifty-Two Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Posting again to up my post count. There is a very real negative impact caused by all the shit that is being pressed. Production time is very backed. This doesn't hurt a 20 year old repress, but when a small band needs their 500 records in time for tour it can be detrimental. Blah blah blah Support artists, not nostalgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
