Howay guys wtf??
Yes M4B can be over the top and often is full of himself, but why does it bother you so much?? I like his humour, it's good crack, and the bits that are not, well, just ignor it. It's just words on a screen why let it get to you?? You should all know what he's about by now, at least enough to take what he says with a pinch of salt.
If his banter aint your thing, just don't read his posts. |

Why should you have to put up with someone's blatant disrespect for everybody else, and constant chatter of how awesome he is, how you will never be as succesful, and all the other jargon he spills?
I don't want that in real life, and I don't want it on my computer screen.
Tell me to "stop being so sensitive" for all I care, but your good friend Mad4Brad got a little bit "sensitive" in this thread too, didn't he? Maybe you should tell him to lighten up
And by the way, he's not laughing about this right now. He thought that because of his musical knowledge he could come here and eventually say whatever he wanted to anybody and you sheep would lap it up because you looked up to him. Remember when he first made his return? Quiet as a mouse, now he's high and mighty again, just like "RichieV" was.. shock horror, before he ed off the boards. |

Baa!!!
I don't think anyone looks up to him, and he aint a good friend.
I have not got a clue who he is and couldn't give a . I must just be laid back because nothing what anyone says on here bothers me like it seems it does to alot of you. If a can learn something from all you guys, (which is ultimatly why I'm here) then thats a bonus, but the rest of it, well why sit and get all worked up about what someone says, that you don't even know, and does not know you. |

Yeah, that's what I don't understand. Music tastes and opinions are subjective but people seem to think things related to theory fall under the same category.
M4B literally spent his life studying and pursuing music, he's undeniably amazing at it, yet people try and reduce his experience and knowledge to nothing because they have their own uninformed beliefs and opinions that they feel are just as credible because "music is subjective". If I were M4B there wouldn't be words to describe how ing aggravating it'd be to hear something like that, especially coming from bedroom producers over the internet. |
If he acted differently towards others, he could potentially be the most liked person in this sub forum. He doesn't though. His knowledge has nothing to do with why people dislike him, it's his attitude towards everyone and his disgusting view of other people.
As Aesthetic said, you wouldn't take this in real life so why would you here? It's the internet, great :rolleyes: This isn't the c0r, he can go act like that over there.
His attitude towards others is indefensible. His contributions have nothing to do with any of this. Somebody's level of contribution doesn't give them the right to abuse others. You may be content to let someone walk all over other people because you're getting something out of them while you happily turn a blind eye to what's happening, but others aren't. |

Why don't you ing ask HIM what he stands to earn every time he "discredits" us?
How has this even became about "us" as in anyone except M4B himself?
What we stand to earn is the hope or possibility that one day he will either:
a) learn some simple ing respect for people or
b) leave the forum if its really that difficult for him to do.
| quote: | | I'm getting kind of tired of sticking up for him when you guys cluster him with your whining over his ego or self-centeredness, and I really don't want to seem like I'm sucking up to him since I stand to earn absolutely nothing from doing so, but you guys are seriously delusional if you think M4B actually causes more harm than good. |
You're not "sucking up to him", at this point you're outright sucking his dick. If a thousand people stepped in all at the same time, then all of those people wiped their shoes off on a doormat, you would be that doormat.
I can't count how many times he's disrespected YOU, called your music gay, called you gay, but you're willing to turn that all away for what? Just because he taught you something? What are you a ing knowledge whore? Someone pays you in knowledge and they're allowed to do/say w/e the hell they want to you? Are you serious bro?
Have some ing respect for yourself. This isn't about putting all his + & - traits on a scale I could give 2 s if he rescued battered baby seals for a living. He's a dirtbag. Can he be entertaining? Sure. Can you learn something from him? Just as well. Could you learn something from Ted Bundy too? Absolutely.
Does that in ANYway give him the right to treat YOU and other people like we're a bunch of dogs? Hell ing no.
| quote: | | Where the hell are you guys when any thread about theory or production comes up? M4B has a concise, thorough answer to virtually any legitimate question that's asked here. |
I'll say it again, you're a knowledge whore. You trade your own integrity and self respect for a piece of theory or knowledge you could have gotten from any book.. yet instead, you assume the shape of a trashcan and let M4B dump all his on you.
But as long as you learned something in the process… everything's copasetic huh? You know what that makes me assume about you? All I have to do is teach you something, and you'll let me in your mouth, piss on your gfs face, your mom in the ass, and you'll sit there like the doormat you are and thank me for the lesson on music theory.
You should really be proud.
| quote: |
He formed a contest with his own money to encourage you guys to step out of your comfort zone as producers. And you guys get all touchy because he thinks highly of himself in comparison to us, who are a bunch of clueless, bottom-feeding bedroom producers with a couple of moderately successful musicians tossed in. You get pissed off because his sense of humor might be distasteful at, say, a funeral or a wine-tasting convention, but here on the grand old internet the things he says aren't even remotely shocking. |
Look even I myself was playing devils advocate earlier in this thread. I was trying to have an open mind but you write things in a way that really makes me feel sad for you.
M4B KNOWS A LOT, we've settled that.
But for the amount of experience he has his music is . I do not consider that successful.
We might be "clueless" in respect to his career and what he does for a living, but a good portion of people on this forum can and do make better EDM than him. They also know less than him which makes him look that much more incompetent as a person.
And where is this "success" you speak of?
Nobodies buying his music by the truck loads, nobody knows him or cares to know him, and all the "success" you're seeing is really just a side effect of how you percieve his oversized ego.
People who are truly successful in life have NO NEED to talk about it every ing day of their lives. They actually PREFER that people DON'T KNOW as people will tend to treat you less favorably when they know you're successful.
We treat him less favorably because he is so emotionally poor, that the only way he can feel competent in life is by coming to a forum like this to bask in reflective glory. Its what insecure people with no self respect do.
It would be like Tiger Woods going to play miniature golf and screaming "you suck!" every time a little 6 year old girl missed her put. But in M4B's case, he's at that course everyday doing it to everybody 24/7 365 days a year.
I can't get over how in the world you actually think that behavior is ok. If he wants to be distastefully humorsome he can go join a ing comedy club. What he's doing here is fed by his own neurotic insecurities and he can't help himself like a fat person at the candy store. I find it appalling, and there is no way in hell I would tolerate that for a second.
| quote: | | He was a wealth of knowledge in a giant pile of amateurs who are desperately trying to acquire it, and you guys decide that fart jokes and a well-deserved ego are just way too ing hard to put up with in exchange for extensive musical knowledge that he's always been willing to share with us. Like he said, he gets absolutely nothing out of this site other than a way to waste time, so of course he's not going to take absolutely everything seriously like some of you try so ing hard to do. |
OMFG what is wrong with your brain bro?
"Gets absolutely nothing" from this site? Really? Theres no way in hell you are really that stupid.
He gets EVERYTHING from this site. He gets an ego boost that allows him to tolerate his own miserable life, he validates his own worthless existence by comparing himself to a population of people who are NOTHING like him.
You are comparing apples and oranges here. Take M4B by the nuts and drop into a pool of people who do the same exact thing he does for a living. Then I'll say his ego is well deserved. But you are basing his competency on the fact that he voluntarily chose to come to a forum of people who for the most part treat music as a HOBBY.
I don't even think cryo does music for a living wtf. There really is NOONE on this forum to draw a "fair" comparison with. And being as though cryo doesn't even do music as a career, he surely comes off wayyyy smarter than M4B regarding what he knows. No rich parents, no fancy upbringing as a self proclaimed child prodigy, he's humble, modest, and if he had the same exact learning experiences that M4B did, I guarantee he'd be light years ahead with what he knows.
Drop M4B in my intro to music class alone with my professor and he would have made him look like a highschool drop out.
THAT’S a fair comparison. 42 years experience, has played, performed and directed orchestras all his life. Has also played with tons of famous musicians and appeared on tv dozens of times.
M4B came here to feel like he's smart, to feel like he's better than someone else and that he definitely gets from us. So please don't give me that about nothing to gain. Pure utter garbage you're talking now.
| quote: | Sorry for the Robbie post, I hate ranting, but this seriously needs saying. You guys have the most vapid sense of humor I've ever seen on the internet before, I don't know what the hell causes it but you guys need to get your heads out of your asses. This thread directly addressed M4B with a stupid question and you guys preceeded to mock and insult him because he gave a legitimate answer that you didn't want to hear.
God I ing hate you guys sometimes. |
Its ok I've seen nearly everyone do a "Robbie post" on this forum.
Something tells me they existed long before I did.
This whole debate/argument comes down to one simple fact of human life.
You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar. Everything that has happened to M4B up until this point has been 100% a result of his own doings, and nothing remotely related to our "vapid" sense of humors.
There are about a million ways to be humorous and stimulating w/out outright ting on people. Go over to any forum with a proper moderating system and you'll see that vapidless humor still exists.
For w/e reason you don't think its ok to demand respect from people and that’s the ONLY thing I see happening here. The same way you're trying to justify M4Bs insults you can turn that logic around and apply it to the insults against him in this thread.
But you don't, you cry because your master might never becoming back now. You're mad that you might actually have to open a book or take lessons on music theory vs sacrificing every bit of dignity and self respect you have just to have some neurotic sociopath spoon feed you theory.
And to that I say, the same way M4B is likely to never have respect for other people, I don't think its likely you'll ever have a shred of respect for yourself.
edit: I also find it amusing that as many times as M4B has been confronted in the past for his malevolent behavoir.. he conveniently chooses to leave right before a winner is announced.
I'm rather interested to see if he will use this opportunity to save himself some cash. |

It's annoying when people come in here, and just say "Chill out bra." It doesn't really help anything or anyone with any issues. |

I just apply what he said to the most insensitive person on this board.
And apparently even for him words on a screen are more than just words. Out of all the overreactions in this thread, his was really the most unjustified.
He basically threw a preschool conniption fit and stormed out of here like a little girl... merely for us doing the same exact thing he's been doing ever since he joined here.
Goes to show that even the most insensitive of people have a breaking point. |

This thread seems to divide people into two camps...
Those who think a person should behave on the internet as they would in real life
and
Those who see the internet for what it is |

The thing is, you do not have to. This board, unlike a face to face conversation, has a handy "ignore list" feature that easily offended people really should use more often.
So yes, the Internet actually is a lot different from "real life" in this case. |
