the fear of return

[faster]

(maybe the now-rarely-sighted Fearandpanic would have something more erudite to say on that score)

I had a couple run-ins with the guy, but Fearandpanic's broad knowledge and uncompromising dedication to his beliefs are really missed around here.

Totally. When he verballed you, he backed that shit up, he was consistent, and he could be utterly hilarious when it wasn't you getting skewered.

Fear, stop lurking.

Agreed here's another vote for his return. And polyphonic too.

no

[MRS]

That was the guy from the bay area, right?

[jon abbey]

yes.

sorry for all of these off-topic posts, snailed, I'm sure mark will move them when he's back and settled later today.

He always seemed a bit (overly) angry but only from commitment, I think. Certainly very well informed and interesting but maybe a tone down of the confrontational stance would help get his (very valid) points across.

[Jesse]

Really substantive content, overall, with a frequently snotty mien.
Betcha he's lurking like Tom Sawyer at his own funeral, digging this!

[franz bieberkopf]

i prefer to imagine that he is pulling a rip van winkle, and will wake up with a giant beard and a great deal of confusion in 20 years or so.

[jpeatt]

If he's lurking I'm sure there would have been something that would have given him the shits enough to at least pop up and take someone to task...

Has anyone had contact with him outside of here?

Has he been on soulseek?

Has he been on soulseek?

He's on soulseek now but not in the ihm room.

[bryan]

So F&P is not merely on sabbatical?

Too bad if that's the case. Out of all the postings I don't have the time to read lately, it's a shame I can't not read his either.

...that's a tribute... his integrity is missed.

you, on the other hand, I wouldn't miss for a second.

Do what?
Debating about who's good enough to belong to the glorious IHM community?

What are the rules exactly? Does one need a degree in musicology? Is personnal acquaintance with influential posters here a plus? Is there a proprietary algorithm that determines in real time the relevance of one's musical taste by scanning their posts on the "wtf are you listening to" thread"? Should one post two dozens monochrome covers a day in the aforementioned thread?

And I believe knowing more on gender, race, beliefs and sexual orientation of all posters would also be extremely useful and appropriate to decide on who to ban.

Am I popular now that I use irony and sarcasm? Please say yes and make me an admin!

[mudd]

i was gonna explain myself, but i think you'd be better served with careful instruction on how to fuck off.

[Jesse]

Let's not do that-it says "do as I say, not as I do."

[mudd]

under the circumstances i'm ok with that.

[grisha]

why all these displays of love and justice on a hate forum.




what's up scumbags.
