What Happened?

[Sonic Blue 55]

The Santa Cruz Guitar Forum.has about 8 participants. It can go weeks with nothing new.

I guess I've been here long enough to be a medium timer, and, yes, we sometimes come across a little tough on newcomers, of just plain defensive. Heck, this place was tough to crack back in 2015 when I joined. It felt like a long time before I was "accepted."

Yes, I came in a few years later and tried multiple times to “fit in.” I told the story before, but I was leaving in frustration of being completely ignored, until Sergio rescued me. It’s not like that anymore. I try, and see others do as well (especially you) to welcome new people.

I like the low-key vibe here

It's kind of like going for a quiet stroll with friends, as opposed to TGP's scheduled lemming rush over the cliffs of insanity.

That guy got me, too. Texted with him last night. He’s shunned all social media this summer.

I was on vacation. Sorry to throw everyone off. Please resume your regularly scheduled forum-ing.

It's all my fault. Just ask my wife.

If all of our wives connected there would be a new forum based on all the reasons prs forum is a complete waste of time since there are so many other things that need attention.

Think of all the GAS prevention support and tips that would circulate amongst them all.

Hell, none of us would see NGD for ten year stretches.

This is frightening........

It's terrifying to even contemplate what would happen; I'd be drawn and quartered!

This Place Is Not Nearly As Active As It Once Was. What Happened?

So if this place was still like it was in the Good Old Days what would you be posting about, talking about and discussing?

 

[dogrocketp]

We’d be talking about the time before the good old days when 10 people posted?

 

[Bogner]

I mean, I’ve been married 35 years. I’ve gotta play hard to get somewhere!

You Dirty Tease...LOL

 

[Bogner]

For sure! Plus, the Mrs is 11 my senior.

She Is Whipping You Into Shape...Good For You!

Gear. Experiences With Gear. Gear On The Way. Dream Gear. Gear Specs. Gear Sounds. Gear.

That Was Huge News When Initially Only Two People Were Posting.

Broke

 

[Broseph]

I blame no new limited edition silver sky!

It would be cool if they allowed a sales or trade portion of the forum! But I know that is a pipe dream.

Maybe we would talk about the music that we all create with these incredible instruments/gear (I am not saying that it was ever that way)! What a concept, eh!! Everyone wants to talk about the tools (which is fine and to be expected), but few want to talk about what they do with them, which to me seems to be missing the point of the tools!!! And yes, I know this is a guitar forum, but these guitars would not even exist were it not for our desire to create ;~)) So everyone on this thread, go ahead and post in the Studio & Stage section, your latest work, I look forward to listening to it!!!!
