ArsMoriendi
09.13.24 | She left Sputnik over a dispute on a Marylin Manson thread/growing tired of people who defend music artists who do terrible things
She’s okay though |
CugnoBrasso
09.13.24 | Ok makes sense, I remember the Steve Albini thread.
She was one of my favorite users :c |

09.13.24 | I don't think many people would sign a petition to bring back smok |
Ryus
09.13.24 | we need smok |
budgie
09.13.24 | smoks the only person on this site id go out of my way to have a beer with |
Koris
09.13.24 | "she's a chick???"
Non-binary, iirc. Also, I just realized that their emeritus tag is gone... wonder if they requested for it to be removed |
Koris
09.13.24 | And all their reviews and ratings are gone too... damn |
dbizzles
09.13.24 | Bummer, think we are from the same area actually. Enjoyed my interactions with them. |

JoyfulPlatypus
09.13.24 | I remember the Albini thread too, in fact I just skimmed it again...and genuine question, is there something in that thread that got deleted or something? Like yeah there was some arguing back and forth but I'm just not understanding what in THAT thread was bad enough to make Kompys leave Sput. |
ffs
09.13.24 | komp is cool hope they are doing good |
Hyperion1001
09.13.24 | first hawks now kompys and maybe smok we cant afford to lose anymore |
sonictheplumber
09.13.24 | smok's a chick??? |
Emim
09.13.24 | People be taking this site way too seriously |
sonictheplumber
09.13.24 | wait kompys was offended by people listening to steve albini and marilyn manson? thats wild cause i remember them digging some valendreth reviews which are far more offensive |
budgie
09.13.24 | ppl werent very nice to smok i hope you all lose sleep |
ffs
09.13.24 | heh, yeah offensively terrible. whoever writes those reviews is the dumbest meathead bozo of all time |
Emim
09.13.24 | I hope smok's next poop is unsatisfactory |
budgie
09.13.24 | I LOVE SUSHI
sorry hyp u make good point |

09.13.24 | every person who grandstands like this always has skeletons in the closet |
Hyperion1001
09.13.24 | can we please not do this guys were trying to get them to come back |
Futures
09.13.24 | sorry but if someone can't handle a good faith back and forth about the merits of art from bad people and angrily lash out at them you probably shouldn't be on the internet |
Snake.
09.13.24 | her comments were getting deleted. far from a good faith argument if you ask me |
Futures
09.13.24 | so the mods determined they were worth deleting? |
Dedes
09.13.24 | Kompys was always really pleasant!! A little easy to upset iirc but I don't think anything's ever worth deleting all your content on the site, no matter what the problem reviews are a vehicle for people to get into music and that love can never be crossed. It makes me sad when people wipe their reviews. |
widowslaugh123
09.14.24 | Users dropping like flies
Is it true you can’t start a new account here? Damn. Is this it? Are we just gonna all slowly die off like fucking WW1 vets or some shit? |
artificialbox
09.14.24 | I actually like to imagine a future where the only person left on this site is PsychicChris reviewing the entire Buckethead discography |
Hyperion1001
09.14.24 | honestly unless mx fixes some things then yeah we actually might be the last ones. |
Koris
09.14.24 | ...and let's be honest, mx isn't fixing anything for the forseeable future |
Futures
09.14.24 | it does feel different this time but people have been saying the site has been on imminent shutdown since i joined in 2013 lol. remember when the servers were out every other day? |
Hyperion1001
09.14.24 | i mean this is the first time we literally cannot add new users so every one that leaves is actually one user closer to the site being abandoned. |
Futures
09.14.24 | there's enough degens like us to keep it kickin. mx will fix it in a few years lol |
Dedes
09.14.24 | iirc hasn't Sowing been messaging mx to purchase the site off of him? That would be a beautiful situation I think if possible. At minimum I'd like to see this site preserved but if traffic can slowly be reintegrated and actual modifications implemented that'd be so sick |
Butkuiss
09.14.24 | I for one look forward to seeing who the last active user will be, shitposting into the void |
Dedes
09.14.24 | Smok |
budgie
09.14.24 | that would be such poetry |
Butkuiss
09.14.24 | Nah I really think the PsychicChris scenario is one of the most plausible |
Koris
09.14.24 | I wouldn't wish reviewing the Buckethead discog on my worst enemy. But what's funny is that there's a reviewer on ProgArchives who's been doing just that... godspeed to that guy, lol |
Gyromania
09.14.24 | “She left Sputnik over a dispute on a Marylin Manson thread/growing tired of people who defend music artists who do terrible things”
Fr? I like Kompsy but people rly need to stop policing what other people think and do. If someone chooses to keep loving an artist’s music after whatever controversial story comes out, oh well man. They’re not doing it to piss you off lol. Unless the dispute was of someone defending horrible acts, that’s totally different but I’ve never seen anyone on Sputnik do this unless they were blatantly trolling. |
Drifter
09.14.24 | it was the latter gyro |
budgie
09.14.24 | mildly bad or real bad, like not liking korean food levels of bad? |
CugnoBrasso
09.14.24 | Kompys was extremely based and their heart was in the right place. Also, just added my band to the list for shameless self promotion |
arthropod
09.14.24 | Damn.
Actually, since when it's not possible to make new accounts? |
Butkuiss
09.14.24 | Like all year
It’s better this way : 3 |
Mort.
09.14.24 | since we got hacked on 10 of january 2023.

arthropod
09.14.24 | Shit, that's just a few months after I joined. Perfect timing I had. |
evilford
09.14.24 | I've seen account start dates after that in 2023
Makes u wonder |
Hyperion1001
09.14.24 | there have been periods where it maybe kind of worked? it’s definitely broken but it’s like intermittently possible to make a new account I guess. a lot of the sites functionality was tied to the forums so when those got hacked and MX just abandoned them, a huge chunk of the site went with it.
i honestly don’t know how the mods even moderate the site anymore. All the tools were tied up in the forums. |
ReefaJones
09.14.24 | "the mods"
lol you mean Sowing?
He's the only one with mod powers who even visits this site anymore. |
Hyperion1001
09.14.24 | there’s still jom and Willie too. |
ReefaJones
09.14.24 | Jom is still around? Just looking at his profile that doesn't seem to be the case. Could be wrong though |
Hyperion1001
09.14.24 | he very rarely posts on the main site. been that way forever. |
pizzamachine
09.14.24 | Maybe the real Kompys are the Kompys we lose along the way |
Hyperion1001
09.14.24 | when are we getting pizzamusic.com |
normaloctagon
09.14.24 | If you look into your heart you will find the pizzamusic.com was there all along
On a real note sad to see kompy gone |
pizzamachine
09.14.24 | Wake up boys new pizzamusic is here: https://youtu.be/hcZdjd4Z7MA?feature=shared |
Koris
09.14.24 | "Jom is still around? Just looking at his profile that doesn't seem to be the case. Could be wrong though"
Jom still does plenty of stuff behind the scenes; he just doesn't interact as much with the main site anymore. I still see Willie on here a decent amount though, especially when he puts up a new review |
Pikazilla
09.14.24 | Where is DivergentThinking? |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.14.24 | missed this thread, but kompys was easily one of sput's best users + writers. sad but understandable that she lost patience with the community (lot of sympathy for how she responded to the obstinate shitfucks in the manson thread), shame also that the staff literacy rate has declined by a p steep percentage since she left. a real one and good soul |
Koris
09.14.24 | "Where is DivergentThinking?"
Last I heard, he was locked up in a dungeon along with Necrotica. Pretty sure they're sharing the same cell |
budgie
09.14.24 | I DONT WANNA BE HEEEEEEERE
IN YOUR LONDON DUNGEOOON |
Koris
09.14.24 | Also, I don't remember what happened in the Manson thread, but I do remember Kompys and Gonzo coming to blows with each other (figuratively speaking) on the Health thread. That was quite the shit-show, and I think it was the last time I saw Kompys with the emeritus tag on the site |
artificialbox
09.14.24 | sputnik lore goes crazy |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.14.24 | legendary interaction. total immolation and a stern warning to any staffer who buys into lazy myths of artist exceptionalism and thinks they're above peer cricitism |
CugnoBrasso
09.15.24 | Pizza, how much music have you produced since January 2023? |
Egarran
09.15.24 | This site is positively vibrant with madness. But it may not be an isolated case. |
