i mean seriously, we can't be all as charming as Trollheart..
Not everybody that comes here is a professional music critic it feels like music hipsters that only socialise with other music hipsters and if you don't know as much you get excluded

How can i say this,
it seems this place is run by certain key members and they are the same key members as always cause not many ppl make the cut and that's why i think not many newcomers stay here cause they don't feel acknowledged here.. it feels not everybody is welcomed here just certain ppl..

Thankfully this place has the lounge where you don't need to be a music pros to socialise here
