Discussions boards serve as platforms to discuss. Going into a thread to post "zzz" does nothing to facilitate discussion. I enjoy Phoebe's music when the mood is right, but I can sympathize with anyone who would say her stuff can be a snooze. That's an opinion and I can respect it, in an actual conversation or exchange of meaningful dialogue. We're talking about an instance of neither. I saw that TDWP thread get bumped this morning, abuzz with comments of a new EP. I could have very easily popped in there to ask why anyone is listening to Hot Topic-core in 2021. But I see no real benefit from doing so, nor am I starved enough for attention to consider baiting replies with a contribution like that. It'd be one thing if someone openly asked the board how they felt about Phoebe's music. But uninitiated it's just weird. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should, etc. jonnywreck 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JohnMatrix 155 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) Imagine going into a thread of a person or band you don't listen to or like only to tell people how much this person or band sucks or is overhyped. On a vinyl collection forum of all places too Edited April 8 by JohnMatrix Quote Link to post Share on other sites

On a vinyl collection forum of all places too Literally can’t imagine it. Especially for Phoebe Bridgers who already has an absurdly devoted PR team. In that hypothetical, I’d just feel like I was cucking myself by basically promoting her and keeping her threads active, for free. It’d really make me question my self-worth.

On a vinyl collection forum of all places too Oh stop being so silly. I read this board every day. I love record collecting. Me calling a record boring is only as serious as you take it. This thread could use a little balance from the fomo heavy posts. You can make fun of me when I miss out on the RTJ2 TTL that’s about to come out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oblivions 696 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 This is why I stopped thread balancing. It’s a thankless job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve been waiting for that thing to drop for 3 months. At this point, I doubt it actually will. ...Carry on... deftbarley 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
