To be fair to Phi, the Coachella board is home to some of the worst people ever.
I love it. Everyone is so angry. There's none of this bullsh*t "oh, just be cool and heady brah" nonsense, it's just hatehatehate. Clueless new posters are treated with hostility. It's absolutely fascinating.
In their defense, considering much of the demographic of Coachella, I have to imagine that the types of goons they get bumrushing the boards in peak season make the idiots we attract here look like Noble Prize candidates.
TBH I like that shit. Its not even as harsh as another forum I post on. I'm used to constant flaming, trolling, and a need for thick skin in order to post.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

wow... we are totally a bunch of hippies over here..
We definitely get a lot more sensitive posters. People who can't take getting their feelings stepped on (even at times when someone isn't being harsh but just voicing their dissenting opinion).
I like this board more than a lot of others. Though it is much easier to offend people here. I think a lot of it is that a decent number of posters here just aren't so used to posting on message boards and don't get some things.....like poking fun or making a joke.
I love this place but I am envious of the music lounge they have over there. It's the only thing about their board that is straight up better than this one. So many quality posters over there are discussing music intelligently and thoughtfully daily.
EDIT: In case that comes off the wrong way, Inforoo of course has tons of quality posters too, but the volume of discussion in their music lounge is just far greater than here.

I'm King Sensitive, but I've made the transition from new member to regular poster pretty smoothly in general. I think it's a matter of not pairing sensitivity with saying dumb sh*t, haha. I guess I'm just lucky, but I don't say enough stuff that's really worthy of getting called out by the more aggressive posters.
So, the moral of the story...if you're gonna be sensitive, at least don't be dumb on top of it. Haha.

I know I am terribly new, but this is just an observation. At least on here when people are "poking fun or making a joke" it's intellectual. On that board it's all, "Hopefully this year all the daft punk fans on the board die a painful death, dissolved in the acid spit of a huge reptilian beast," or "Get f*ucked." Then, the responses are so juvenile that all I can do is facepalm.
Or maybe I am just biased on anything Roo related...

I know what you mean, Brannigan... d*ck.
Seriously though, I think our TML suffers greatly from the sensitivity that ITM was talking about. It is hard to get a discussion going sometimes because the existing posters there are rough at times, so some are reluctant to post a dissenting opinion in there due to the feeling that they will get brutalized for not agreeing with an opinion that the majority holds, i.e. that Channel Orange is a great album (suck it, rdk).

In the first 30 seconds I saw this:
"die in a pit of eternal fire that extends beyond this plane of existence."
