I may as well get involved here.
Dirty: When I first 'saw' Dirty, and heard he was a white hip hop fan, I instantly assumed he'd be a bit try hard and only listen to really underground stuff in an attempt to earn more credibility as a fan of the music (this has been the case I have experienced in the past). I had a PM conversation with him not long after I signed up though, and he wasnt like that at all. He liked all of the obvious names, and I felt that he wasnt going to jump down my throat if I mentioned liking Cam'Ron or something. It was very refreshing to be honest.
s_k:I wasnt sure what to make of s_k at the start. He was really friendly, but in a traditional way if this makes sense. I am used to alot of joking around as a way of bonding, 'I mock you, you mock me' type of thing, but he was just genuinely nice and couldnt do enough to help me settle in around here. He also re-recorded a youtube video he'd made previously of a record playing (the name escapes me right now, sorry) after I'd asked for some recommendations. He told me the original video he'd done was poor quality so he'd redone it so I can hear the song properly. That was way more than I'd expect someone to do really, especially for a newbie.
Burning Down:Actually gave me an infraction within about an hour of me being here. I decided to try and make a better impression with you with my proper posts, and not with my personality (because that failed miserably). But it seems we actually dont like any of the same music!! Outside of lounge threads, I dont even notice your posts really, and if we do interact its me asking about something you know and looking like a complete idiot. On the plus side you sound like Kat Von D, which I like.
Jack Pat:One of my favourite posters here, again not that we have really interacted that much, but we've had a couple of threads where we've had a laugh (Skittles are NOT a candy BAR), and when I mentioned Portal you gave them a listen despite me telling you how they sound, and you telling me that wasnt your taste at all. I respected highly that you still gave them a listen though.
Jackhammer: Seems to know alot about music from alot of genres, but isnt in your face with it which I like. I had a fear that seeing him in every section would mean he's be a bit of a snob or elitist, but he seems to be really relaxed about music. Also, he has the best avatar here by a mile!
djchameleon:I have two sides with dj. In threads where its a pretty neutral topic he is good for a conversation, but in some threads where you are on the opposite side of something to him he's a bit more of an ass-hole (in the nicest way possible lol). Weirdly it only seem to be threads where I am in discussion with Ben Butler that I notice this with dj, so that'd be the Rihanna thread where I compared Kanye and Alicia Keys to Rihanna, and the more recent Rebecca Black thread. I think he's generally a good guy though.
Tore and mojopinuk are also people I hold in high esteem, more for their roles in making me feel a bit more welcome when I first joined.
