The M/F Thread 2009: The Quickening

MusicScribbles:
I think that the biggest problem some people are finding is that not only is the thread getting cluttered, but some people haven't been able to find those little gems that we used to discover in the thread upon its conception.
Of course, it really has run the gamut, and a lot has been done already. And now it's getting more difficult for some to find those. (Especially with Kai gone.)
This is likely because there is so much to download, --especially in one post-- that it can become overwhelming to really consider trying out any of the things that are posted.
It's like walking into a record store and frantically scanning everything because there's just so much, and the place itself is so large and expansive that it makes you dizzy.
So, when people say clutter, I'm willing to venture that some of them are saying that they hate having to wade through all of it because everyone's posts are so long. It gets harder for the individual to get their recommendation out there. You might upload an album, only for it to get swallowed up by a discography post. And don't say that if people really wanted to find it then they would search diligently, slowly, methodically, and patiently. Because at that point, some voices, or in this case, uploads, can overwhelm the smaller ones, who might never be heard because of it. Finding your own subjective needle in the haystack is for some aesthetically more enjoyable when they don't have to rely on one person's opinion or listen to an entire page to find something they like. Sometimes smaller doses can better help people out. Otherwise I feel like those who are complaining might be experiencing a weariness and/or overload of music.
So, interpreting all of the complaints I've heard for those saying that they are being completely irrational. Have a heart. I venture to guess that what they are trying to say is that they feel like finding and listening to music here is becoming a chore. Unenjoyable.

Also; I'm not expressing my opinion, but helping to interpret those that have stuck it out through the beginning, because they're the ones it seems most likely to feel this way, being here from the start.

Nicky Thrice:
that seems reasonable. i'll respost only the less known shit and i'll do it over time. Feel better?

sean:
^ This. Music Scribbles has said everything I wanted to say.

This ain't a blog kids. Everything ever doesn't need to be here.

and man where is Daz when you need him.

Don't ask me. I'm not upset.
I mean, I've been gone from the forums for about a year now. This is all new politic to me.

Scandanavian War Machine:
okay, glad that's sorted out.

on an unrelated note: would it be possible/desirable to hide this thread from non-members just like I Like Hurrrr? because, as you may or may not know, the whole mediafire word filter plan didn't really work to prevent this thread from being searchable via Google (my bad). however, after a little experimentation i realized that I Like Hurrrr is NOT searchable from Google, probably because of it's hidden status.

thoughts?
