Is Music Banter dying?
 
I've never seen it so slow here.

Yep, I'd say that about half of the regular MB posters are now more active on that new website, created by Guybrush and Trollheart.
You should follow Mindfulness's link and join us, Paul !

I plan to keep posting on MB https://boxden.com/smilies/o16vPRS.png

but Something Completely Different is, well, different! https://boxden.com/smilies/ra2NRDo.png

IT's probably all the wokesters. They'd rather talk about woke stuff, then music.

Szukobit 05-30-2023 02:34 AM

I think yeah...

Psy-Fi 05-30-2023 04:19 AM

It's definitely the slowest I've ever seen it since I joined. Several regular posters from MB are also posting at the new site more than here. I've been going back and forth between both sites but I'm not planning on leaving MB.

I would say it’s been dying for about the last decade.

I can't figure out how to upload a profile image to SCD

At the top right, you see a little avatar - or an icon where an avatar would be - and your username. If you click that, you get your menu where you can control the look of the forum (try the dark theme), your info, avatar and more.

Try Profile Details under that menu :)

It never registered to another IP iirc.

Been here before around maybe ~2018. Made a new account today on a whim and this place does feel a tad barren. It used to be more active on weekends iirc though.

Forums in general have been on the decline for a while.


It’s a shame cuz this place used to be wild.

It is not. You get out of it what you put into it.

I hear the afterlife is straight fire. Even in death this forum won’t really die.

It seems to be very slow (I mean hardily anyone)

Where is everyone?? (Not many good sites left)

BassoonPlatoon 08-23-2023 02:00 PM

True, but the people that are still here are rather dedicated and you still get content.
A lot of people do "leave" and come back from time to time.
It's true, though, it's tough to find good places for discussion online anymore, which is sad.

mattrixs 08-23-2023 03:57 PM

People seem to be so mean now and not nice :(

Lisnaholic 08-23-2023 05:43 PM

Many people from Music Banter have migrated to SCD, mattrixs.
There's a link on the first page of this thread if you'd like to join us there.

Definitely. Everywhere just seems to want to be an echo chamber.

Surely, what mattrixs says is one thing, and what you say, BassoonPlatoon, is another ?

I have no idea if both or either of those statements are true, because what do I know about "people" or "everywhere". All I like to do is chat online about music - for years Music Banter was active, then the action seemed to shift to Something Completely Different. Maybe it's me, but now both places seem to have hints of this song playing gently in the background:-

Or, after you've been posting and have had a cup or two of coffee:


Lisnaholic 08-26-2023 07:12 AM

HaHa! Or if you are feeling nostalgic for a classic era of pop:-



One thing the pre-psychedelic Beatles did really well was to sing about ordinary peoples' experiences, with natural language that gives a kind of effortless, conversational quality to their lyrics:-

Quote:

I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That's a lie
'Cause I know where you've been
And I saw you walk in
Your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
'Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man
In my place

No, the only one saying something other than what we are saying is you. Which is fine, but don't get it twisted.

If most people have moved on to elsewhere and you feel like that, then I suppose it's true, but there are still people who post here, obviously.

mattrixs 08-31-2023 10:23 PM

It is sad really......

http://www.internationalskeptics.com...forumindex.php is still quite active...

BassoonPlatoon 09-01-2023 04:01 PM

I am skeptical about that link.

mattrixs 09-01-2023 07:44 PM

Hehe most of the people on that site dont seem to be skepitcal!!

Ya talk about something you dont believe is as MSM says,they cut ya down like crazy!!

BassoonPlatoon 09-12-2023 06:07 PM

How ironic.

Tristan_Geoff 09-13-2023 05:34 PM
