the reason i visit this site several times a day is because i like it how it is. people are talking of musical elitism - well where else can i find other people getting excited about the obscure stuff i listen to?
i come here to talk about music i have discovered, and to find more. and i don't find music by reading verbose reviews that inevitably sound pompous and obscure. i find it by listening to a few tracks on youtube and exploring things myself.
moreover, i don't come here to make friends. i don't care about anyone on the board - i'm just around to talk about music.

This is fairly accurate description of what this site has become for me, although at one point it was much more of a social outlet, which is ironic because it was also when Music Banter was much more about bantering about music (Who else remembers pre-lounge MB?).
This isn't a soapbox rant. MB has simply evolved into what it is, and what it is will to appeal to some and not to others.
Pretty simple actually.
