no, sorry thats not really my point. my point was more that I appreciate / get it that TSS has his point of view on the matter   - that he doesnt care for censorship, and doesnt like the fact threads can be controlled / shut by someone........but  it personally doesnt bother me if a meme troll thread is closed..........im way too tired or high to give a shit tbh : P

Well, this site never claimed to be a bastion of free speech. It wasnt intended to be 4chan (in the bastion meaning, not the whatever the fuck 4chan is now meaning) or anything. It is a website about chipmusic and its peripheral interests with a fairly loose set of rules which can be codified down to "dont be a dick head".

Walking into a hardware store and complaining that they dont sell apples and oranges is kind of fruitless.

Yeeeesssss!

Dooooo it!

There are a few curmudgeons but the majority of people here are pretty nice.

seriously, i get what TSS is saying about mods closing shit,

If you think someone (ie me) made a bad call in closing a thread, you are more than welcome to PM one of us, make your case and say why you think the thread should be open. You will always get a reply and, for example, in the case of the "customised gear" thread, maybe get it re opened. Locking a thread isn't a one way street and while I freely admit I personally have no sense of humor to speak of, the moderators are all totally accessible and will listen to any comments / ideas.

You aren't wrong perse but I dont think there is a lot of a negativity really, its a forum, people disagree all the time, sometimes it gets a bit more vociferous as in the last day or two. Forums (and most other groups for that matter) take a while to warm up to new members.

I would suggest flying out to Tokyo and attending a show or two. That will show you a super positive site to the community!

It isnt deleted, It is locked and moved to the graveyard. We can open it up again in a few days.

I'd be happy to throw in some dev money! You have a Paypal?

I think that is the point.

Why?

Also it is a GREAT machine to learn subtractive synthesis on. Very very clearly laid out routing, knobs for almost everything. I think it is somewhere between a Microkorg and a Radius? Kevin can probably confirm. The only thing I didnt like about it is the Xbox hugeness.

Opened, added price.
