it's only done if it's needed. they don't boost something for just the heck of it. the ultimate situation is that you don't have to do anything. you wouldn't use a de-esser, noise reduction or a noise gate for instance if there is no need would you?

but if you wanna keep doing bassless songs and boost them up in the mastering phase when it affects every sound in the song, be my guest..

Sure, if you really don't know what you're doing, it's probably a bad idea to use EQ when mastering. Maybe I shouldn't be trying certain things, but I only make very subtle changes. It doesn't seem to sound bad.

Yeah, I guess that would make all the tutorials on the TA stickies invalid, if it was "wrong" to use EQ when mastering.
