Isn't the point of the Pit to discuss things besides music?

Riva 01-14-2005 09:34 PM

But these people come to a music site, and never, ever discuss music.

That is like me going to a temple to use the toilet.

gmoneyguy 01-14-2005 09:34 PM

The point of this forum, is music not idiotic rambling (aka the pit)

LeperAffinity 01-14-2005 09:35 PM

[QUOTE=Gilmour]see 100% of the pit[/QUOTE]
Fixed. That's why I avoid that place like the plague.

Silenius 01-14-2005 09:35 PM

I see your guys point.

Edit: I never post in the Pit either. ( to LeperAffinity)

Simple Man 01-14-2005 09:37 PM

The Pit is 99% idiots.

[QUOTE=high_voltage_acdc]Isn't the point of the Pit to discuss things besides music?[/QUOTE]

Yes, but the original intention of the Pit was to be a kind of rest area for the people who use the music forums. It was never supposed to have a reason for existing on it's own, and that's why it's now bad; it's almost entirely perishable and vacuous.

Anyway, hello everyone.

True. The other 1% are people from other forums who occasionally go there.

Hey Bartender.

jpj 01-14-2005 09:43 PM

Hello. It's Friday :)

Simple Man 01-14-2005 09:45 PM

Sure is.

BoboTheRagingHobo 01-14-2005 09:52 PM

Yes, the pit for the most part doesn't even have any musicians in there. They are people that are spam whores that talk about nothing all day long and join just for that purpose...

Personally I find it a waste of space, since you know this is a musicians forum, and well over 75% of those people in the pit are not musicians. Nor do you ever see them out side of the pit...

So with these things stated, why is the pit still around?

There was a thread in the Pit about this not too long ago, about how SFK had suggested that mx get rid of the Pit. The main argument against it was that all the Pit-dwellers would gravitate into other forums and infect them, making them into new Pits. For that reason I say the Pit should be kept around. R&M is bad enough without them spamming it up.

How about perma-banning all the pit dwellers? :lol::lol::lol:

Well see, other forums have rules about this kind of stuff. And after awhile they would all be perma banned and such, since you know, the other mods are not as soft as the pit mods are.

And seriously, this is a musicians site, not a "omgz spamz site, lolz" like the pit is...

I think it was a good idea. Of course it would have been bad at first, but things would have gotten much better later.

BludgeonySteve 01-14-2005 10:07 PM

The pit used to be cool until the mods made is so that we weren't allowed to flame stupid people and so all of the idiots stayed.

disasterpiece_012345678_515 01-14-2005 10:33 PM

I don't really like the pit that much cuz they make retarded threads

RiceMonster 01-14-2005 10:33 PM

I almost never post in the pit. Everytime I go in, its just a bunch of idiotic threads. Really, I pretty much just post in here and the cd review forum. I don't know why I haven't posted in the guitar forum for a long time.

disasterpiece_012345678_515 01-14-2005 10:34 PM

I don't post in the bass forum that much anymore cuz they all ****in hate me for no reason

^Dream~Theater^ 01-14-2005 10:40 PM

One Hour Photo is a good movie

Bartender 01-14-2005 10:41 PM

That it is. So is Death to Smoochy. Insomnia is..so-so.

[QUOTE=disasterpiece_012345678_515]I don't post in the bass forum that much anymore cuz they all ****in hate me for no reason[/QUOTE]

Probably your name.

Simple Man 01-14-2005 10:44 PM

:lol:

Rasta Rocker 01-14-2005 10:45 PM

I've posted in the bass forum once, I think it's boring in there. And I wish there was a Reggae forum...but maybe that's just me

I loved Insomnia. It was the first of those three I saw, and the first film to show me Robin Williams's other side. Man, that guy is talented.

Other? There's a decent amount of reggae discussion in there, if anyone cares to start it.

Bartender 01-14-2005 10:47 PM

Meaning because it distorts the screen, by the way.

You can discuss reggae in the other music forum. reggae isn't popular enough to have its own forum, although I do like Bob marley.

Simple Man 01-14-2005 10:48 PM

I post in R&M and Sports

And occasionly Pit.

Rasta Rocker 01-14-2005 10:48 PM

I've checked in there, i started one, but they die pretty quickly. I haven't checked recently....maybe ill do that now

jpj 01-14-2005 10:49 PM

I used to post in bass, but it's pretty boring.



And I think Death to Smoochy is easily the best out of those 3.

Rasta Rocker 01-14-2005 10:53 PM

I go to the Love and Relationships thread (is that worthy of me getting flamed?) when I need advice or some possible rep+

Bartender 01-14-2005 10:53 PM

[QUOTE=jpj]

Death To Smoochy is my favourite out of the three, definitely. I remember, I kind of had a moment of self-realisation about halfway through the film, when I thought "Hang on :confused: I'm watching a large, purple elephant skating around an ice-rink, pursued by a couple of dozen flag-waving neo-Nazi demons..

What a fu[color=white]c[/color]king awesome movie I'm watching."

jpj 01-14-2005 10:55 PM

:lol: Yea, for me it's really the "wtf :confused:" element of it that makes me like it.

Bartender 01-14-2005 10:56 PM

[QUOTE=Rasta Rockerstat3]I've checked in there, i started one, but they die pretty quickly. I haven't checked recently....maybe ill do that now[/QUOTE]

I remember seeing one Reggae thread going for quite a while. I think that's because it was some guy arguing that it was crap and took no talent.

Rasta Rocker 01-14-2005 10:57 PM

It's not the hardest music, but that doesn't mean that it's crap

Bartender 01-14-2005 10:59 PM

Yeah, we know. That's the other reason it was kept alive; several people flaming that guy to hell and back. 'Til he was banned.

Rasta Rocker 01-14-2005 10:59 PM

Bartender, if you don't mind me asking are you satanic (im just wondering cause of your avatar)
