1. New guy rocks up on TA.
2. New guy spreads complete BS, with total conviction that he knows everything.
3. Rape.
4. New guy assimilates or has a cry and never returns.
Every in time! |

6. Nerd makes passive aggressive thread, proving his superiority. :cool:
If it's a pattern, maybe you should recognize the pattern and then wonder why there's not so much activity on the forums...consider the fact that being aggressive about your opinions and that people leave after you try to humiliate anyone that opposes your righteous rule still doesn't make your opinion the right one. :rolleyes:
Also, you being on the site for 10 years, it's surprising you still haven't read the forum rules.

That is to say, discussions about the forum itself or its members as opposed to actual music production. These topics are of no relevance to anyone except the most "hardcore" members (and sometimes not even them). If you have a question or problem of this nature, please PM me or one of the other mods instead. |

Utter bollocks.
A few months ago, some pepople (mainly less seasoned people) were saying like this place is dead and it's the end etc, with stagnant threads barely moving on the main page, but those of us who have stuck around for a while, know it's just the ebb and flow.
Looking at this forum, it's packed again, with tons of new threads every day and there's even been at least a dozen new members post on here in the last month.
Echosystem has the formula EXACTLY right. Either Assimilate, or assume the position (bend over). |

Sure, maybe a dozen sign up each month. How many stay? That's the point I'm trying to make. |

I wouldn't be talking, you posted one track in the WIP thread everyone made fun of you and you never posted again which means you qualify. Your also new here and don't usually stick around when peeps mention your name. |

And the point that EchoSys is making is actually incredibly on point; As a newb here, you either realize that you don't know everything and get the way things truly work, or you get a hiding, can't take it, and leave.
I'm not saying this to be an arsehole - I have helped so many people over the years - we were all one at some point - it's that what the regulars see all too often is a fatal combination of an overblown sense of entitlement mixed with false knowledge. That does not fly around here and frankly it's healthy.
If you ever go to work in any pro studio, it's exactly like this but 1000 time worse.
The first thing you get taught is that you don't know and most likely what you think you know is wrong or at least only half boiled. The second thing you get taught is that you need to have a really tough skin and be able to take a joke, and certainly not take yourself at all seriously.
That is exactly like life in a real studio, in fact any workplace which is high pressure.
And although it's tough for some people, it's healthy as we don't know everything, and there's always someone better or more knowledgeable than you, but over time, you get the hang of things, you learn the real insights and actually how things work and then gradually there's less and less people that know more than you do, and at that point you actually know some .
Just look at things like the serato forums or audiophile/hifi forums - there's so much nonsense and misinformation on those forums that they aren't even worth accidentally clicking on to.
And granted, some people don't stick around, but there's been plenty of people who get how this place work and have stayed - just look at the join dates of many of the people in threads on the first page. There's actually only a handful of us who have been on here longer than say 5 years.
I hope you stick around, it's always good to have people who are passionate about what we're all in to, but learn how to deal and how to play ;) |
