Age (Optional):
21
Location: British Columbia, Canada
Music preference:
Inclined to say no preference, but actual tastes lean towards what you'd know as indie rock.
How long have you been a member? Four months.
What made you join a music forum? This is my fifth music-centric forum. I had a need to leave the last one, and found MusicBanter in that search. I joined a music forum in the first place to discuss my favourite artists.
How come you choose MB as your music community over other music communities? I did a bit of research, and found MB to be the most knowledgeable and diverse looking community. I wanted to be able to expand my horizons, so MB appeared ideal for this purpose.
How does Music make you feel and what it means to you? I think most people who are passionate about music would have trouble summing their feelings up in a few words, but I can tell you that music engages me more than any other activity (asides, possibly, from travel).
Tell me what makes the MB online forum work for you and keep you coming back for more? It's an excellent resource with a very good userbase. I haven't made any BFFs yet, but the conversation is worth checking back daily for.
What have you learned or what will you take away from your experiences here? I've only been here a short time, but possibly the most surprising revelation I've had since joining is that it's possible to be a diverse listener with great taste without being an outwardly judgmental elitist turd.
Let me know of any other points that you feel might interest me negative/positive about your experiences regarding being involved in a Music forum and its Members, now's your chance? I've found a level of maturity here amongst users that I haven't previously seen in forums. In my past experiences I've found forums to be quite judgmental and cliquey; not very accepting of new contributors. I have not experienced this as a problem here.
