Yep, you're pure, von Johin. A pure bullshit artist. |

You can dish it out but you damn sure can't take it. Suck it up, little man.
There was nothing mean in what I said. You used it as an opportunity to spank me and now you're playing the victim based on that. The provocation came from you and now you don't have the balls to admit it. Show some backbone and stand by your words, you spineless dork.
By the way, if you think I'm the only one who thinks you're a clown, you prob'ly ought to shelve the narcissism for just a minute and check it out. The list is long.

Oh good - just what we need. More drama on the internet. 
Y'know what? This divisive bullshit is childish and completely counter-productive. No one has to like everybody, but there's nothing to be gained by insulting people and stirring up bad feelings. It only makes this place seem like an exclusive little club, and certainly there is enough of that perception around already. |

Ok, no moderation?
Fine. Gloves are off. This is how you roll? I'll give it back. I'll lay it down, now. I'm done trying to make nice.
First of all, you want a long list of people who think you are an asshat and suck, badly? I got a huge list. I'm going to be the one with the balls to tell you now in public. You have no idea how many people describe you with three words: Worst Tone Ever
How ironic that so many would IM and PM me here with the same words to describe you. Even your "friends" here say "Silas has issues." Yep, issues is an understatement in the grandest of descriptions.
Tell us about your pouty, bratty little stomping off from the forum a few weeks ago, Silas. How you insulted everyone on this forum on your ignorant little "My Duck Soup" blog and vowed never to return with some dramatic posting. And tell us why you suddenly came back and that posting magically disappeared? Interesting. Tool.
Now you're posting more mean things about this forum there, even insulting the "middle aged women" who "run the music scene".

I really have to stay away from that SL music forum as that place will suck the blood right out of your veins.
SL is pretty destructive for doing anything electrical but there's one place even more destructive and that's the SL music forum. I don't know why I keep going back there as there's not a damn thing to be learned so I've got to wise up on that one. I know it's a total waste of time but I do it anyway. Brilliant!
I talked to jsmn earlier about SL music being controlled by middle-aged women and she told me of some exceptions but there are too few of them to change my theory. In fact, it appears very much that the biggest single demographic in SL is middle-aged women (30-50) and it's definitely shifted to the high side. What's interesting to me from that is why would middle-aged women prefer acoustic guitar sets. Is it because RL men are forcing every other kind of music down their throats everywhere else so SL is an escape from it.
I'm not trying to slam middle-aged women; I'm kind of partial to them. I'm just curious about the RL/SL disparity in taste. |
You're a horrible mean-spirited, nasty, awful person, and you're a horrible musician. You just plain old fashioned suck. Period. I have never heard anyone else be so cocky about music and production, and in turn be so shitty at making it.
Your recordings, they suck.
Your mixes? What, do you wear fucking earplugs when you mix?
Singing? Oh my god, I've heard better singing out of wounded deer at the side of the road. Its miserable.
Songwriting? You call wanking on a fretboard over drum loops songwriting? Oh my god, you are tone deaf and can't count to four.
People go to your shows to laugh at you. You think they're cheering, but they're laughing at you. You are a clown to them, an assclown. Its a good thing you've got your fireworks to fall back on.
Look at the photo of the assclown wearing his assclown hat. I rest my case. You look like a dick in that photo, and you prove it every time you post.
Guitar Rig 3 does not tone make, dumbass. Suck it up, admit it. You have not got a clue how to use it and you have gone to great lengths to make your guitar tone sound like blown tin foil speakers. Your tired-ass repetitive self-indulgent "improvisations" have about as much depth as a mud puddle.
You can't play in time. Period. Your solos, noodling shit that they are, are an example of mediocre flailing at its best. I've heard 12 year olds lay out better jams than you in the middle of a Guitar Center.
You are a pompous, asshat. You have shown time and time again that you have absolutely no sense of decorum or fair play. You have no concern for anyone else's feelings, and have worked hard to make an enemy out of me because of your insecurities. You done nothing here from day one with me but cut me and other people down, use ad hoc insults, and worse because you're an insecure jerk who feels the need to cut people down when he can't intelligently have a discussion.
This post may finally find some moderation now, since they won't moderate out the bullshit you regularly hurl at people, I'm sure they will take out mine. But I'm not going out without telling you just how I fucking feel now that you've worked so hard to make an enemy out of me.
So fuckoff, Silas Suckborough. I wish I could lay claim to that insult, but another forum "fan of yours" here gave me that one.

He wont let me rise above. I tried, I didn't reply in kind for six weeks while I waited for the mods to take his insults down. Uncalled for, outright insults he hurled at me, when I wasn't even the one he was replying to. He's a prick. Nobody moderated. They left it there. Not a single word said to the prick. He kept insults coming. He doesn't understand anything else. It isn't on this message board only, there are a couple of others he's left his prickish footprints on, too.
The mods ignored the PM's I sent. I didn't reply with insults. He didn't even moderate himself until I called him on the carpet. I walked away, hoping he would act like a grown up, and he starts on it again. So screw him. I'm through with this shit.
Its all insults, name calling, nasty insults and personal stuff. I've had enough. Sorry you had to see it. Maybe he only understands nastiness. I gave it back this time. I'm tired of it. He leaves insults to me and others, left and right, nobody does a thing about it, says anything, moderates anything, enough. If he wants blood, he's got it. He's been picking fights we me since I showed up, and nobody wants to say a word. Enough is enough and I broke.

Come on now . . . we don't moderate because this is an open forum and we expect everyone here to be self policing and to act like adults. So lets all act like adults. If you want to say something directly at some other person in the forum, please use pm.
This post is directed at ANYONE who is angry with some other ONE person and wishes to let the other ONE person know. Please EVERYONE, if your comment is not intended for the community at large, use pm, not public threads.
In order to maintain this as a public and open forum, we have agreed to take that stance that NO posts will EVER be edited or deleted except for obvious, off topic spam or posts giving away personal, real life details about another person. If we can't take that stance, where the hell do we draw the line?
But please know that posts become too personal and too flaming are likely to be locked. This means you get to live with your bad words and childish behavior permanently. . . .there will be no going back and editing them out. Any visitor curious enough to see why the thread was locked will be welcome to observe your bad behavior.
So come on, BOTH of you, rise above this shit for ALL of our sakes. None of us want to read it and this kind of thing completely undermines this forum, which is here for everyone, not for just you. And if you don't like the conversation here to the point that you can't behave when you come here, fine no one's making you click the link.
Slimmie, I think it's time to close this one . . . . boys, if you wanna retract something, I'd suggest you do it now.
And a pair of apologies to the community might be in order as well. I don't give a rip if you apologize to each other or if you meet out back with knives and clubs, but please, whatever you do, take it OUT of our view.
