Has your experience here to date generally been negative or positive?
 

We've all had our run-ins, our fights, our shame of drama, times when we wanted to leave the forum and times when we wished others would. But overall, in general, do you view your experience here as a positive or negative one? Do you enjoy it here or just keep coming back not knowing what else to do? Are you glad you joined, or is it the biggest mistake you ever made? Do you look forward to coming here? Do you feel you contribute and are heard or do you wish for more of a voice?

How do y'all feel?

Well, I've not been here even a week yet, but its been a positive experience. Seemingly a lot of very knowledgeable people here, and a lot of interesting discussion. Not nearly as much trolling, and spam as many other forums.

As for my contribution, I hope to one day make a bigger splash here. As of now though, I doubt I do very much. But I'm still new, and haven't done very much to earn that or whatever.

My experience has been positive. This is easily the best place to discuss music, no matter what your taste is.

And Cicatrice, you will, don't worry. You're already starting to be a great poster.

Completely positive.

It's really weird the only people answering are noobs

My diagnonsense: it's not a complicated question for us n00bs. You hang out in any one subculture long enough and a question like this becomes more complicated and you have to be careful of passive-aggressive overtones, etc.

For me, this place is like a playground, and I'm the salty old man sitting on the bench watching the kids play. I'll shake my cane at a whippersnapper once in a while, but for the most part I'm harmless.

Drama is a part of life, and some people are addicted to it. Plus the added phenomenon of some of the younger members trying to prove themselves, which tends to bog things down a bit. Meh. Been there, done that.

For the most part, my experience has been positive, since I don't take things too seriously most of the time.

Thats about as honest as I can be.

Sarcasm is hard to convey on the internet

Neutral

yeah, TOTALLY!
