Very Good Forum.
Very good forum i have discovered not so famous / obscure artists albums that i never knew existed because i read about them on the forum. Very useful indeed. In return i posted links to albums & singles, 3" CD singles, picture discs and box sets i've got.
My prized music possessions are The Beatles stereo Japanese box set, rare Led Zep Japanese album box Set (Kosher, not fake) , Pink Floyd Early and Later Years Box Set, Kate Bush Live At The Hammersmith Odeon CD + Vid, Sheena Easton No Sound But A Heart bonus tracks CD, 101 and Days Like This 3" CD singles, Dannii Minogue Neon Nights pink and blue colour pressings double album, UFOs 1995 & 2004 Walk On Water CD, Iron Maiden Maiden Japan 17 track edition CD, loads of Madonna picture discs and coloured vinyls , Sex book with CD and my Holy Grail i've recently purchased Madonna's Japanese 40 CD singles box set.
I have found, not just this forum others i have posted on it's not worth the hassle discussing anything many people think they're right and they don't want to listen to others opinions they often want the last say - Only their opinion counts. I got booted off 3 or 4 threads lol. I thought it best to post on the songs and albums you've recently listened to threads just name the artist and track post a link from youtube and where you can buy it from. There are many threads you can leave just 1 or 2 comments. If you've downloaded from free music sites best not to mention it.

Stuck up boomers
A few very helpful people, but you really feel looked down upon by more. Joined as I'm a young, inexperienced vinyl enthusiast and boy was I made to feel it. 60-70 year old yanks who've been audiophiles for years being downright rude and making me feel like I'm polluting their air by commenting in the same section or asking a question.

If you have a brain and value free…
If you have a brain and value free speech then avoid this forum. Its run like a concentration camp by despotic mods who censor anything and everything.
Anyone with valuable life experience will not be welcome as the site seems aimed at younger people who seem to think they are omniscient. Its very pro American and anti anyone who comes from elsewhere.
Yes theres very good information but if you want a decent debate then forget it. If the mods think you know more than they so then they will delete your posts to preserve their own power
The forum could be very good. sadly all meaningful debate is stifled due to the inherent power cravings of those that run the site.
Older people are certainly discriminated against as age often brings wisdom
My advise is to avoid joining the debates and just use the forum for information.
I don't like censorship and power games. Sadly the Steve Hoffman forum is most proficient at both.
