^^^ I intentionally and specifically used the general term "newer members" To respond as if I only meant you shows a great deal of self-centeredness. At least a half dozen newbs have been doing it consistently. This thread is titled What is going on around inforoo. I responded to that. The title is not What is wrong with Bonnapoo? That thread would be too many pages to read. And seriously, you pick that name and then lament that you are not given respect? It is earned, but not by such as you. More of your posts have been antagonistic than helpful or even conversational. You, sir, have been exposed as a troll, not by us, but by your own actions and statements, and I am finished responding to such inconsequential blather.
Every post since then..I feel like my posts are skipped over.
Don't take it personally. I'm ignored on a regular basis. I just bang harder on the keys till someone notices me or I break the keyboard first.
In fact, I bet this post is completely ignored so the argument can continue.
trooper-it's like Dory in Finding Nemo..."just keep posting!, just keep posting!" It can take awhile to find your groove. Druid- Do you mind? i'm trying to have an argument here! J/k you are actually one of the respected members i was referring to in my earlier post here. You are clearly someone who empathizes with others and we could use more o' that 'round here. Especially to make up for me.

Here we go with the bashing (which was earlier predicted) of Noob's/veterans. I love how Jam Bands got brought into this argument too. Wow...took longer than expected.
Thanks to Scrog for providing the uplifting moment of the year (thus far). i feel better about Inforoo than I have in months.
My main objective was to simply find out what went wrong from when I first started til now. I know and respect many of you. I have had the privilege to meet many of you you at the brunch as well as see shows with some of you (I still remember seeing Druid totally rocking out across the way at The Gossip). I love when Inforoo members come up to me out of nowhere at the Roo and say hi.
Some of you may feel nothing is wrong. You are entitled to your opinion. I just felt that a lot of negativity was driving people away and wanted to address it. I hope some kind of awareness was raised and I hope some people who felt intimidated had their mind eased a little bit.

Im sorry for saying anything about jam bands. Yoga enthusiast brought it up first. But that doesn't justify my response. I apologize. The bashing was inevitable. I am pretty sure all the hate here is directed at me. Maybe if everyone focuses all their hate on me it will mean more peace for everyone else.
I can't believe I just read the last 2 pages of crap that happened since a Mod thanked everybody for the kind comments. Talk about a shit storm.
Since I should add to to the discussion if i'm going to post i'll say that I think that passionate music fans with diverse tastes in music will always result in arguing. No different than passionate sports fans, or whatever the hell besides music and sports that people get really into.
I am torn on this topic. Pondo brings up a good point with questioning what's going on. However to me none of this is new on here, or other forum for that matter. When I first joined I was a little intimidated by the vets and how some things were handled. To be honest Juggs and all of his ban hammer banter last year had me scared to death to even post at first.
All that being said I have never seen a legitimate question (or response for that matter) go unanswered (or without notice). However I have seen lots of jabs at people who repeatedly ask the same question, or say worthless nonsense, or barge into a thread to ask an irrelevant questions. You wouldn't run into the library and just yell out what you are looking for and then be surprised when you are not responded to or even told that is not how the library is used and maybe you should search around a little and see that everything you might need is there if you take the time to look for it.
Bonnapoo everyone keeps attacking you because you won't let it die. Not just the jam band thing but everything. I use the same sort of manners on here that I use in real life. The vets are my elders (even if not by age, they have put the time in on here) and I respect them that way. If they disagree with something I don't argue and fill a thread with hate, breeding more hate. I quietly agree to disagree and move on. If your topic is something centered on fact as opposed to opinion you could produce evidence that what you are talking about is correct, but you'll never when win an opinion stand off.
All of my feelings aside it is a little sad that a thread started to ask what's going on with all the tension, turns into pages of the same old bullshit that caused to Madman to open the thread in the first place. Friday to you Pondo for being passionate enough about inforoo to at least attempt to engage us all in a little less hate. Hold your clock high my friend.

What is it that im not letting go? I did not start this thread. I did not bring up the jam band thing again. Enlighten me. What am i holding on to? This thread was started and I just joined in by telling how people give me crap on here. And what topic are you talking about? I've mad one post on here and it was the jam band thing. I stated in the beginning that the list was just opinion. But people started giving me their opinion, so I gave them mine.

When somone gives me their opinion its a reflex to give them mine. I'm sorry vets. I didnt mean to cause such controversy.
Because you respong like this^^ to EVERY post man. You're very defensive, and you have made a hell of a lot more than 1 post in this thread. Just fuckin let it go man. Try engaging people in conversation in a different thread, try a different approach if you're not getting the response you want, and last but not least--learn to let some water jsut roll off your back. A good start would not responding in defense of yourself in this thread ANYMORE.

I'm not being an ass, I'm trying to help you.
I guess you're right. This will be my last comment. I only defended myself in the first place because people are accusing me of being someone named Ryan Ashton. I never attacked anyone or said anything personal to anyone. I guess Im not liked because I am me. And thats fine.

Ok it took me a minute but I did figure out everyone say hello tooooooooo
He is NBT's boyfriend and just out here to prove what a pathetic waste of DNA he is. Give him a round of applause folks once again his need for attention has brought him here where he likes to play pitiful little mind games and toy with others emotions. I will find his last thread where he was outed and link to it.
