Banned at TGP

Recommended Posts

I think it matters what specific forum the problem occurs within. The Sound Lounge and the Pub are where everyone gets in the most trouble. I got into a pretty heated argument in the Recording/Live Sound forum just a week or so ago and didn’t get in trouble outside of a warning, posts removed but no “points”.

Narcissists abound in TGP. Great place to buy used gear though... vintage pedals go for the cheapest prices on ththe internet there. So many boutique cork sniffers that the vintage gear has to be priced at market value and not a penny more.

Also the best place to buy used boutique gear. Most members know the exact value of everything so it usually keeps the prices honest... I basically wouldn’t have a pedalboard if it wasn’t for TGP. I certainly would have never heard about the Zen Drive or about Warm Audio.

Super information but not a friendly place... mostly just wankers, wannabes & blues lawyers.

My banning puzzled the hell out of me because it came out of the blue and I hadn’t had anyone take issue with what I posted... no warning - just the ban hammer. Must have been a mod who had a bone to pick with me - like a Dokken or Winger fan.... 

oh well - I’m banned for two more days..... what to do? Did you guys know there was porn on the internet? Holy crap.... you can also stream movies on this thing called webflix or netweb or something.... and the porn is free - how cool is that!!

I hate that place and only go there for the awesome Lovepedal thread where we have a saying “Don’t Get Out Of the boat”...meaning, stay in this thread and don’t waste your time posting in the rest of the site due to all the ever-present asshats.

I never knew there were Don Dokken fanboys .... until TGP. Like can’t some things be universally despised? Can’t we just agree on Don and be done?

He would lean towards Perfect.   But may make an exception for Prophet.  

No doubt.  It has been said of him that he is so humble that he considers himself to be the best at it.

The Internet has created an entire generation of narcissists. 

Or has it simply given pre-existing narcissists a worldwide platform to express their narcissism?

I do not remember people being so full of themselves previously, and I grew up in wealthy NYC suburb where everyone went off to college.  

Yeah, but the internet, social media and smart phones weren't ubiquitous like they are now. The narcissism was definitely there, it just wasn't in your face 24/7. Same with the racism. And the anger.

I’m in the final hours (I think) of my banning..... and I suddenly have the urge to post a photo of Neil Young sitting on a toilet.... do I go back, flipping tables and screaming at the money lenders? Do I try to make peace with whatever mod banned me? Is it showdown time? Is Don Dokken or his mom a TGP moderator? Who knows!  Do I lie in wait like a school shooter - biding my time for the big sendoff?  Decisions decisions...... it might be Shadow account time...  Trickster time!!! Monkey wrench time!!!!!! I might have to curry favor with the mod team under the “Rhett from Albuquerque” personae - a 67 year old ex hippy who plays a Les Paul Jr through an old Princeton.... Rhett has bursitis in his ass from his days driving trucks around the SW.... claim to fame was he once shared a beer with Neil Cassady even though the dates don’t line up..... This could be good!

That mental image makes me think of the tone that Neil coaxes from the combination of Ol' Black through his dimed, ancient tweed Deluxe.

Try the handle "Turd Ferguson"

or other, related SNL monikers, such as "Jasper Quazzeltoot"

or "Peabody Tilcutt"

or "Derval Mackinaw"

You get the picture.

I just think of how impossibly toxic his bathroom must be after "an event"...  I'm sure there's a photo shop expert out there somewhere.
