Yes, you can state it reasonably. I've already stated why. It's not something hard to grasp, dude.

The point is this, this was stated:

"Yet the community apparently has no problem with making an appearance on one of the most despicable television channels around.  We certainly do seem to have a fucked up set of priorities."

and yet, this is done:

Signed up and appearing on http://myspace.com/nullsleep

This is what they (pr1mate) wanted to achieve:

/insert_pr1mate_tv_time AKA exposure

yet, this is done:

http://myspace.com/nullsleep AKA exposure

Rupert is behind it all and is the cause of the original "beef" that was brought up. Rupert is News Corp. Rupert directs it all. Rupert owns it all. He's the one that benefits from all his assets to in turn continue on what he is doing. So if one wants to take a proper stand against an entity, do it right, not half-assed.

And you brought up this, forgot to address it last time:

(left out amigacorer as it just sounds silly)

Well guess what, same can be said here:

It's so easy to look edgy and suddenly political, and take a blow at FOX news, especially when you're not the one in question that will be featured on it. I mean why wouldn't it be easy ? You have nothing to lose. Only gain from looking "edgy".

Probably wasn't the angle, but people can easily say as such. So your hints at your question and comments that followed that, is simply pure speculation. I feel it was an attempt at a low blow which is unrelated to all this, to somehow discredit and completely make this all irrelevant. I may add, wouldn't be the first time you go about in assuming things either, Peter. ;)

The only reason why I brought up the whole "Delete Your Myspace" aka "Don't Appear On The Site" for your entertainment purpose was in response to the negativity that was attached to "Pr1mate's appearance on TV" for entertainment purposes. Was to see if certain people in question would actually have the fortitude and stand by their words.

If a person wants to see the world from a black and white world perspective, then so be it. But at least stand by it when it actually involves you and not others. Not half-assed.

Like I said, appearing on the internet and appearing on TV have the same effect: it's exposure and it's definitely communication. One just happens to be international by default. The other just happens to be local or national or international, depending by what means you're accessing it (older technology after all). They are all owned by the same guy regardless, who's behind the "controversies".

I would like to add: I would be saying differently if BR1GHT PR1MATE's intentions were from a political point of view, but they never were. They were strictly for entertainment.

Attaching such negativity to something that is strictly done for fun and kicks is just way too extreme and, imo, a poor attempt to falsely attach negative connotations to it.

Oh forgot to seal the deal, since everyone forgets this little small fact:

Yet the community apparently has no problem with making an account on MySpace, owned by Rupert Murdoch, Chairman and CEO of News Corporation, the owner of Fox News Channel.

If anyone want to truly make a political statement delete your myspace for good. Rather than critique without any real substance behind it and/or action.

Actions speak louder than words.

Here's a start: http://www.myspace.com/nullsleep

:D

Cheers. Let get fucking political!

Same ol' same ol'.

Electronic music has suffered similar faith time and time again (although, like old Nullsleep muzak: I thought BR1GHT PR1MATE was shitty as well. So I agree. I HAS AN OPINION: calm down).

Anyway, the year is 1979/80, PUNK FRAWK WAS STILL ALL THE RAEG... well, sorta. I guess we were at post punk at this point:

Gary Numan was accept while hated by many.... and those prior to him were even less accepted. Same old arguments were brought up: not authentic. Not earthy enough. NOT REAL etc.

Anyway, I think Crass put it quite well at some point:

"If it's done for entertainment, simply take it as entertainment."

I believe that was a reference to a lot of punk bands at the time, who posed as political activists, but yet were simply musicians yelling out empty promises and false hopes. Just catchy slogans. It had no true value, as many never truly lived by what they stated. I mean, the Sex Pistols w/Anarchy in the UK? srsly? While on a major record label? Come on. Bulldada. It's empty.

If your music holds no political point of view whatsoever, then performing on some shitty show really does not matter (on a personal level), imo...

Now on a scene/community level... it may have different drawbacks. However, since when did you fuckers get all political? Seriously? wtf? Since when has chip music been political. Can someone point that out to me? To me, over the years it looks more like it consist of the old reich (old school chip-hopers, that may or may not have demoscene backgrounds. Which started of mostly out of nostalgia, to some anyway) to teeny-bopper sceneter kids (which mostly consist of the UK kids ). It's nothing like punk ever was (although punk itself is a hypocrisy, but that's another time I could bore you with). I have yet to see it emerge as some scene that exchanges political ideas and expression.

Srsly.

Gaiz.

....Srsly.

Anyway, I'm not sure why people are still taking "8bit" as a revelation.... I mean, Timbaland has been up on that biznatch from here and back as it is already. I mean, come on, Britney too?

I mean Crystal Castles have even taken it full blown... I mean, come on, Toshiba commercials:

That was seen internationally.

Although, while loved by many, you wouldn't believe the amount of hate.... oh right, I forgot what site I was on again xD

hahaha

Man, sleepy time for me. bai nao.

lol either a troll or mentally handicapped. I love how this guy didn't get shit from anyone except RG. Yet, other more productive threads get shat on and are in turn issued warnings pointlessly.

"I produce speedcore"

Yet, I'm on a "chip music" site... which usually and majorily consists of bleeps and bloops (don't care if you have a sub-forum, not a whole lot of info to begin with. To top it off they didn't even bother to post there specifically. So obviously were not even aware of it. Talk about fucking moderation on this site, lol). Hardly any bending. Most here are probably clueless to it, except a few.

"recently discovered sound bending"

so I come to chip forum. jah?

"I already have a shit load of toys n stuff to use but don't usderstand really how it works.. can i put it threw my mixer or laptop? I dont get were it goes from the toy to????"

I make speedcore and  have a mixer.... yet don't have the slightest clue how input  and output jacks work. hurp durp hurp durp.

There's plenty of much more insightful stuff out there with a simple google search to begin with.  Even on youtube and whatnot. lawlz.

Anyway, lets derail some more to a pointless thread in an inappropriate forum section due to lack of moderation: The Distort13 Stagediver stuff is the best SD to date, imo. They need to get off their fucking asses and release it properly already. Geezus.

I use to lean more towards Despez stuff in the past, but I'm a firm higher believer of SD stuff now. I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT. PRAISE ALAH

I got it too, just now ;[

lawlz. Was downloading a release two days ago or something.

Certain it was an FTP compromise? As I noticed your Wordpress installation is out of date:

v2.8.6

Naughty boi :p

They just released 3.0 a bit back.

I'm not too certain or can't recall what security updates were made, but it's always a good idea to always keep it up to date:

http://wordpress.org/

Plus, it's easiest WP version to maintain to date, if you ask me personally. I mean, even non-tech/developers can maintain it at this point.

Older versions of any piece of software are always susceptible to being broken into in one way or another e.g. injections and whatnot etc etc.

Where there is a will, there is a way.
