It's a good idea :clap: How about you start one in the secret forum?

Yes let's start a SYG on a forum where niceness is mandated. Doesn't that sound like fun????

It's the musicbanter forum rules :laughing:

Anyways, the first really popular SYG thread didn't start off as a toxic cesspool. Take a look at the early pages here if you want.

https://www.musicbanter.com/editors-pick/41000-spill-your-guts-what-you-really-think-about-mb-members.html

And the best version of that thread, to my mind, isn't a toxic cesspool of insults, trolling and antagonism.

I consider myself liberal minded in terms of content as long as it's not malicious, trolly, intended to harm or hurt others. If that sort of content would become too much for MB, it's not gonna fly here either.

^Yeah, the mental health struggle is real :( Hopefully we can support and help each other.

The first thing I saw was this:

I can't really think of anything to say about him, so he must be kind of bland? I don't really know the guy.


Toretorden
Should not be the mod of anything. Kind of like the yin to Sleepy's yang. He also argues for the sake of it, but usually is wrong about everything he says. Also, never entertaining.

That made me laugh out loud :laughing:

Wow, that thread is bringing back all the memories. Sleepy Jack? Cardboard Adolescent? Frickin' Captain Caveman?!

Feels like just yesterday I was fresh out of high school, randomly googling "music forum" and discovering all the diverse personalities in that community.

Sleepy Jack is with us, even if he isn't active 🙂

He's here as @theevilone

wrong.  SYG at its peak was Freebase told vanilla she looked like a tranny and the entire thread imploded.

Is that why Vanilla left for years, then?

I don't think so. But I do think that's what led to it getting shut down.

I'm lurking through unread threads because I'm bored 😂 that link to the old SYG's thread was so nice. So many members from back in the day and I hope everyone's okay 🥹
