I've got a nerdy theory about TGP...

[ryan summit]

guys i really hate the martha stewart forum
i just go there for new recipes
and wanted to get instructions for festive yule log
but i gotta read through endless "horrors of menopause threads"
and really, how many different shades of khaki are there
but i just cant stop checkin in to look at pictures of fresh baked goods
i wish all the middle aged women would get the banhammock

[goroth]

and really, how many different shades of beige are there

fix'd

I'm also a bit sick of TGP threads. All forums have their own thing.
ILF: look at those guys hyping another TS-clone for blues jams in the loungeroom. 600 bucks for that? That's like 3 custom oscillating fuzzes. HAHA
TGP: look at those guys losing their shit over another oscillating fuzz that they'll just use for droning mindlessly in their basement. 200 bucks for that? That's a third of a decent OD! HAHA

Edit: I mean, we're as bad as each other in our own ways! Some things are going to suit certain dudes, and that's why I'm over here and not over there.

This, over and over.
Just couldn't be more correct.

Now excuse me while I go drone away in my basement.

I've never even been there

But I love them for being somehow responsible for "blues lawyer" being a thing

It's seriously hilarious

Our friend goroth makes an excellent point ^

Also TGP's primary demographic centers around babyboomers, who tapped-out in the 1980s and drink the FNC Kool Aid.
So it's fun to mock the crotchety old codgers yelling at clouds. Especially when so many have genuine anger and contempt toward Gen X and every subsequent generation...in spite of the fact they, themselves are to blame for raising [them] and clearcutting their children's future.

Probably making a demo for a pedal I have no interest in.

Yea, I guess it is annoying talking about other gear forums. Let's keep rehashing the same shit. Carry on...

I'm glad TGP exists. It's got high traffic, questions are asked over and over (keeping info up to date), and is easily searchable.
It's a great resource, and can provide some near instant help/info when needed.

That said, it's hard to ignore a certain % of BS content that happens on forums.........it's also hard to ignore TGP's policies, when it comes to banning people that don't follow TGP's flow.
