The question should be, do they really post on any gear board with regularity anymore. The only guy I see post somewhat regularly is psychodave at GAB and TGP, but not sure he was HOM anyway. Seems to me all the old crew that left just didn't have anything to add to gear discussions anymore/was moving on with their lives or had a beef (disclosed or undisclosed) with the ownership here and didn't feel like starting over somewhere else....Chubtone":3vxesgm1 said:

I have swilled many a refreshing alcoholic beverage with those fine gentlemen at the HOM on Long Island... we played many guitars and laughed heartily and I was made an honorary member in an elaborate ceremony that I am not at liberty to speak of.Bob Savage":1btto7w4 said:

Actually after learning the secret handshake you'd also learn HOM really stands for Homosexual Old Men.

That's maybe why the cork sniffer thing touched a nerve/was so funny (depending on your perspective)...not that i don't own a few pricy pieces myself, but it does get thick around here sometimes...and people wonder why rock music is in the shitty state its in... tone is a tool, not a trophy wife.
Nonetheless, I am all for people spending money on whatever they want. After a certain level of wealth, it always gets pretty ridiculous whether its guitars or cars or boats or women or trips or whatever. No one wants a big pile of cash just sitting around, doing nuthin. It's also not so safe to parade your pile of cash around to everyone, but they should know somehow, right...

Exactly Bob. We had some MONSTROUS flame wars and there was a lot of fun and excitement about lots of different things back then. It wasn't that any of us were new to forums either. Maybe they've been slipping small amounts of Xanax into our food and we're all just mellowed out or faded away or everyone just avoids any sort of topic that gets too heated. At least on this main forum here. I rarely venture onto any of the other headings here.
And if you are a "new guy" here, it doesn't mean I don't like you or that I think someone who used to be here is cooler than you and they should come back and you should leave. Not at all. I think there's room for all of us. This was more "community" feeling as sah5150 said, but there was also way more all out brawling going on too. It was just extremely fun and this forum just kept drawing you back to it all day long, "I wonder what he said..... I wonder what's going on in the Cameron vs. Splawn thread with Dirrty Craig...." etc etc.
Maybe it's just gotten too nice and polite and if anyone goes slightly out of bounds, everyone goes uh-oh and dials it back to nice safe levels.

I believe I was the first one to ask if the rings smelled like cork. If you can't take a joke you should take yer $300 and buy a sense of humor IMO. If I had $10k that I could afford to spend on a guitar you could call me whatever kind of cork sniffer or cocksucker you wanted, it wouldn't hurt my feelings a bit.
