The only mods I want is console mods.

What about case mods?

Irc confuses me because there always seems to be lots of people logged in but no one ever says anything or responds at all. Are they all bots or leftover accounts or something? Does everyone hate me and refuse to acknowledge my presence? I don't understand irc! :'(

While that is part of the point I was making (that #chipmusic is a relatively lifeless channel) keep in mind that when I come home from work and log my client in, I'm checking for conversation and then going about my business if I don't have anything to say. In busy channels more than half the users will answer when addressed directly but are probably up to something else at the same time.

There was a problem I used to have with AIM and Y! where certain friends of mine assumed that by logging in it meant I wanted to spend the entire four hours chatting and not maybe making a little music and picking up the house now and then, getting pissed off because my replies aren't immediate. Certain people aren't wired for certain kinds of interaction.

when we first started we had an amazing amount of mods.  before it went public everyone was a mod.  we had to ask who didn't want to be one.  which was pretty much everyone.

now we have a few

@kitsch I thought we really were not supposed to make multiple accounts either?  I remember someone stated that when I asked and I just decided to keep my username.

I wish that was true, it's so cluttered here with old accounts. Yet again we aren't allowed to delete so idk lol.

Yeah, I kind of agree with this. To me this site doesn't seem dead at all and it appears to fit the purpose of being informational and helpful pretty well. Plus we still do have fun here. Within the context of chipmusic of course ;P

The only thing I see that needs fixing is an AHX/HVL player plugin for the music section ;p

cmo kinda became dead because there was nowhere to have fun

Even though I was on 8bc for a short time before it died, I always felt the same way. I would only come here for info/tutorials, and I would go on there to talk to people.
We definitely need some sort of balance again.

This is why having a legit "rival"/sister site in 8bc was so good - the "srs bsns" of CMO was the yin to the "super fun dope" chilling out of 8bc's yang. Now 8bc is gone AND NEVER COMING BACK, cmo kinda became dead because there was nowhere to have fun (altho every1 is on fcbk/twitter/tumblez now) and now there's shit trolls on here who don't get stopped so it's a bit weird.

A big part of forums being better is how many great conversations from myspace are still on the net? Forums are a great archive of tutorials, show listings, releases, and site news that is a little more robust for the long term than twitter or facebook.

Yeah, and how many great conversations (and yes, they did exist at certain points) from 8bc are still on the net?

This theory only works assuming that CM doesn't "go away" someday.

Meh I've been off Facebook for almost a year now.  Too much real life drama for me even with the ability to block people.  It's annoying how many people think it's a dating site and hit on you or your significant other even if your listed as engaged.  I enjoy the focus here.  Google+ is pretty cool too but I haven't seen a significant amount of chipmusic peeps on there yet.  D&D on the other hand has awesome communities.
