Well, we were doing crossovers and i did a somersault over the long box and landed very awkwardly......its swollen around the ankle area and i get sharp pains up the right side of my ankle when i step or try to walk on it...

Im currently just lying here with a duvet and some pillows really annoyed because i felt like practicing really hard today but i cant.

[QUOTE=LedZeppelin1307;14374266]ebe, can you explain again why you made a new hold?
im still confused...
do large post threads creat problems with the server?

and did Damo give you the ok?[/QUOTE]


Basically what happens is when the threads become so large they not only become difficult to manage in of themselves, but when it comes to moving it it has caused server issues in the past.

There used to be a thread called "Casual Compendium" in the Bass forum which had over 100 000 posts and it casued major issues when a move to the new server took place becasue any attempt to move it resulted in near continuous timeout issues.


The essential goal that I am trying to achieve is one that has been present in the Bass forum for a long time and works very well.

We create a "Casual" thread where people can discuss topics Bass and not Bass related, and in general socialise.

So what I want to do is have this be the place for that in the Drum forum, and when the thread reaches the +-5000 post mark, close it and open a new one, then people can have a bit of fun in trying to get the first post.


But once again, the old thread was closed due to its massive size, I have left it sticked and it will still be available for viewing, just not posting.

Plus I know I would not want somebody to refer me to it to try and find a post due to its massive size.

Can you hook me up to be able to get a big avater like yours?

so... did Damo give you the ok?

You have to win a contest to get a bigger avatar....like the drum-off!

:( I cant enter.


Can you hook me up though?

You gotta earn a bigger avatar.
An probably not, damo is rarely around.
What's wrong with having a new stronghold?

[QUOTE=LedZeppelin1307;14374307]so... did Damo give you the ok?[/QUOTE]


I have not spoken to Damo, but have discussed it with the other mods and gotten the okay.

This forum has been left fairly modless and I offered to help out.

So I have been doing to general problem solving and sorting out things that can be and are issues. But what I need as far as problems go is for you to post them in the problem reporting thread and link me to it.

The mods cannot be available and watching the forum every second of the day, so a big part of moderating is getting the users to help out is pointing out issues so we can help fix them.

its just going to get tedious when whe have a "Drum Stronghold (Version 8.95)"

and the name is very annoying.

How can i earn one without entering the drum off?

[QUOTE=LedZeppelin1307;14374307]so... did Damo give you the ok?[/QUOTE]

Its posts like these that make the drum forum filled with lolz.

The continual E masturbation of someone who has nothing to do with the stronghold.

Nothing against damo, I dont blame him for not looking in that old **** hole anyway.

Man I feel so lazy today.

I've slept from 3:30 am to 930, Went for breakfast, Came back at 10:30, Went to sleep at 11:00 and I just woke up at 1:45.

Im never going to be able to get up for school.

FDGHKGFHJLGHJLHJLFHJHJHJLCGH!!!!

DAMO DIDNT GIVE THE OK!?!
you didnt even talk to him...
that is a bit rude. you could have waited.

i understand you are a moderator, but how about instead of bringing a forum mod from the bass forums into the drum forums, we get a new Moderator, not to replace Damo, but as his back up. i can think of atleast three people who would be very good mods here.

*cough*

I say for our new mod we should be getting. Maybe we could have a vote for the D&P users who we think will do the best?

I am not going to get into an argument with you and if you continue to push this issue I will gladly give you a few days to cool off.


Just a few things:

People were complaining about the lack of mods, so I offered to help. I do appreciate it when people complain and then when somebody trys to do something to help they get moaned at.

You want to make a difference? Then do something to help, report problems, make this a forum people want to come to to learn and talk about drums and drumming.

[QUOTE=enemytopublic2;14373770]Can't you just get the GC to order one in?[/QUOTE]
I'd hate for the twats in there to get a commision like that


*is old skool* likes to walk in & walk out with a purchase :confused:


I'll just order it online, I did however just return from a local Pawn/Music Shop & got to jam behind a 20" AA Rock Ride, not tooo shabby, but meh still likes the AA RBDR, we'll see, since I have to order one now, I'm gonna look around a tad just to make sure




And thanks ebe9

I played on a 24" Istanbul Agop Traditional Ride at a gig last night...

Well. I really hated it's ride sound, but it was dark and trashy and not to heavy. Honestly, it would have made a really great HUGE crash.

[quote=Berk;14374352]*cough*[/quote]

Robitussin.

I wish we could get some distributers of Istanbul around here, I would LOVE to sample some of their cymbals

You could tell it was a really well made cymbal (it just had no preferable ride characteristics for me), but it had more wash than a sweet ride and no stick definition.
