I wanted to post my Firebird build thread over here, but I now can't quote or edit my posts to be able to copy the text and image links (copying the text from the forum misses out the picture info). :-<
I just liked the people on MR really; as long as we keep a coherent community here, I can't see why I'd want to go back.

The reason the MR site was difficult to navigate was because they used VBulletin, and personally find any site using it hard to use. That was also the reason they got hacked, because there was a security law in the version they were running.
Instead of upgrading and fixing, they just turned of the features that didn't work. All back end stuff had to be handled by a separate department including it seems just minor admin stuff. No way to run a forum IMO. It was the same over at Digital Camera World, (Previously DCM, then PhotoRadar, then DCW). Hence why the staff favoured Facebook and Twitter in the end.

Good to see everyones thoughts. I will be giving this forum the best go that I can, it's great, but I do think that myself and no one else should have any negative feeling towards someone that might use BOTH forums if MR ever did come back.
I like to cast the net out wide if it's a serious Gear,Theory or Technique question I'm asking and the more places you throw out the question, the more chance you get of educating yourself. I still ocassionally post on TGP because it's one more place my question will be addressed.
I would expect most people on here are grown up enough to not "Send someone to Coventry" or show less favour to Dual Forum users, should that ever arise.
I'm not casting aspersions here, but I do understand that there is a less favourable side to Human Nature sometimes.
I'm fully committed to this place ... staffed as it is by people I respect (and Sporky ) )with a new and fresh style ... and more good content than you can waggle a waggly thing at.

Have a "LOL".
@TheGuitarWeasel
I'm just expressing some inner concerns that's all, I'm sure this place will be great. I just tend to have to get things off my chest, so to speak.
You might have to tell me what a "Flamer" is though. As for Ignoramuses, I am an Ignoramus as far as playing cool Jazz solos and complex Jazz Progressions goes, so I hope my presence is acceptable.
I couldn't play a cool jazz solo if you held a gun to my head either ... if you want to see my definition of ignoramuses ... just tale a look at some of the less well managed music forums on any given day ... plenty there to chose from

They could at least just re-open it read-only for reference purposes.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
@TheGuitarWeasel
Ahh, I thought that might be something like that, just never heard the term before.
I'm unaware of the behaviour of a lot of Forums. I am on TGP and they seem to frown upon obnoxiousness from some threads I've read, I've seen people pulled up for cocky comments. I wasn't sure what @ICBM meant about the culture on there deriving from the fact it was once the PRS Forum?
As for others like the Les Paul, Strat-Talk, TDPRI and Sevenstring, I've only skirted round the edges of those when I've googled a question about gear or whatever else, so haven't established any real thoughts on those.
Anyway, Vive La Fretboard
:-hNot that most peeps would care.

One of them could even become the guitar in the banner.
