how is it a shitload more work? Don't moderate everything. Put a disclaimer that the forum is unmoderated, and if you have a dispute, work it out yourself. I'd have to disagree with the idea that it's not something that the site needs, because obviously it's becoming an issue that there's no place to be silly

Right, and you're allowed to feel that way too. Which is the point of an off topic board haha. You don't have to visit it, and the people that would like to are able to see it.

Where does it say that everyone posting should do so in a way that furthers the education of the general population on the topic of chipmusic?

Exactly. I honestly think its total garbage to expect a forum to be on topic 100% of the time. I don't get why it's so bad to have discussion on a forum. Who cares what the pace is? You realize that every other forum I've ever moderated, admin'd, or been a member of has had an off topic section or at least dedicated talk threads. I'd say 4/5 of them so had forum games.

It's a lot less fun to be here if there's no lively fun discussion or pictures or hedgehogs or jokes. Iight as well be a chipmusic school instead of the Internet.

I'd say look now, but then it would again be incorrect. Let's just say that they're both hot topics at the same time.

aww thanks for the love guys smile

in return I'll say something that I have been meaning to say for a while now: this current gen of new chiptune artists (aka you guys in this thread) are fucking amazing. the level of programming and music skill shown by auxcide, frostbyte, Vince, roboctopus, aeros and all you guys is just unreal for your respective ages. sure, it probably has something to do with so many chip resources available now, but still. I would DEFINATELY say that your guys' releases from this year are moving the genre of chiptune forward in a huge way. some of them I would place in, like, top 20 chip release and I'm not even kidding.

So don't mind the elitism, the snobbery, the lack of plays/likes/shows whatever. Y'all are seriously on the right track and with a little effort you guys are going to be doing some big thangs. REAL TALK.

I don't even know how to respond to this and give it justice. Thank you so much man...this means a lot to me smile And I'm sure to all of us as well! We're trying our hardest to do the right things for chipmusic and for the progression of the community. I think I'm going to make this post my wallpaper to remind me that I don't suck as bad as I think I do. heart

why can't this just be our shit thread?

i've tried that with at least three threads in the past and people completely ignored the suggestions
