Were the "Musicplayer forums" hosted at Harmony Central or am I conflating two things? Trying to remember where the epic multipage Nika Aldrich 96kHz thread was
Heh, I was a member at Harmony Central for a long time, mainly in the Political Party. It really went downhill after ownership changes brought in a new atmosphere of sterility. TOO MANY RULES! Everyone left. Now PP is a dwindling number of liberal back-patters. I'm lib too, but it was too obvious and one-track for my tastes. It's now dominated by a couple of intellectual peeps who condescend onto others - I'm sure they are nice people, however. It is what it is, and it's not fun like it used to be.
Where's Nubie Girl? LOL, she was probably a he.
Stompbox Man was a nut job.
Daryl was a jerk.
I had good laughs there until it was sold to the corporate mindset and the stiffies became the norm.
I refuse to go back there and even look at anymore.
Same here. Although I probably frequented the Effects forum even more, because I started building my own back in those days (early 2000's).
I heard "Never Say Goodbye" from Bon Jovi on the radio last week, which suddenly popped an old HCAF quote/term in my head.
"Sambora'd", remember that one?
I believe the meaning was described something like "To be of superior musical talent, but left holding the jockstrap of a lesser talented bandmember/vocalist"...
There was a group of us that went to the Haunting Mids forum, but that seemed to dry up as well... Probably haven't been there in 15 years or so.
