The forum there is laughable at best.
... at BEST


please, let them have their "forum" ... their "piano forum" (at least they gave it an original name)
They like it. It makes them feel a little bit better. Why try to deny them that?

I am curious how many techno-neophytes heard that they should go to the "piano forums" online, and ended up there not even knowing this place existed.

HA! no I'm not... I'm really not that curious

Honestly, KB, I don't understand it either.

Some people might go, others might stay, people can cross-over at will.

Dang. All this energy expended on a big nuthin.'

As my mom used to say, "You want something to cry about? I'll give you something to cry about."

Jodi, you have the bourbon. I think I'll have some white wine . . .

Geez, I didn't know the other place was there. I guess I am not a desired entity, as no one bothered to solicit my participation.

Just as well. I like this forum and the people who participate. The format is user-friendly, the avatars are fun and the forumites -- absolutely the best, most intelligent and interesting folks I've ever had the pleasure to not actually meet!

I have a complaint about that site -- that black background is seriously annoying! For that reason alone I guess PW is stuck with me whether I'm wanted or not. laugh

When you visit a black backbround piano site on winter solstice, you better have your pentagram dusted off!

And plays, you're wanted. wink

You all need to get a ****ing life. You sound like a bunch of bullies who are ****ed because some kids went off to another sandbox.
Don't you have anything better to ****ing do?

I've been a member of this forum and the other for about the same time. I've seen people here there, and I've seen people there here. This bull**** has never been an issue.

Looks like they could use the grammar police over there.

Context is everything. This was posted in response to a direct question about the forum rules.
