Another guy whose name I don't remember got banned when cadeaux asked for songs to play at the funeral of a good friend that died from cancer when he proposed "As serious as cancer". If you risk being a complete dick for a jokes sake it should at least be a good joke.
now that's overreacting
You think? Cadeaux was telling about a very close friend passing away after fighting against cancer. Everybody phrased their condolence and made some serious suggestions. Then dude tried to be funny. Some people told him he's an idiot, then he got banned, nobody was protesting. All happenend within half an hour. Quickest ban I ever witnessed.

I don't think someone should be banned every time they say something distasteful or insensitive
unless the guy was a recidivist/relentless troll
The prevailing ethos on Soulstrut seems to involve giving each other handjobs in public,
The incidence of e-handjobbery on this board has reached a crescendo of late.
Passive-aggressive (and just plain aggressive) alpha male vinyl hunters post here seemingly solely for the purposes of receiving accolade.
We are awash in the jism of dudes who revel in parading techniques for acquisition akin to Crocodile Dundee's method of fishing, and dudes who strive to evoke some old Pa Ingles moralistic parable to demonstrate how earthy and wholesome and just damn great they are. But worst of all is the spectacle of a million miniscule dudes who hang on every hokey word and pant in a climax of gratitude afterwards.

Yeah, we should talk more about footie, the BBC and how we hate our jobs on here.
GTFOH
I for one was telling stories I thought people would enjoy. Rock tells stories cuz WE on the board like to hear the digging stories he tells. What is it that you think this message board should talk about? Unfunny British comedies about terrorists?
Again, GTFOH if you can't appreciate a good digging story, seriously.

I was originally invited to join SS for the sole purpose of posting a "digging story", which seemed appropriate for a place called "Crate Digging Revealed".
I've been here many years without having posted those recent stories but I was motivated by having recently read and enjoyed some stories posted by a couple of Brits at another site and Frank's beyond amazing tales.
I certainly understand that not everyone enjoys reading them but based on the 22,000+ views in a very short time I have to believe that's the exception and not the rule.
As a matter of fact the only regular thread with that many views is the same 10-15 wankers talking about Field Hockey or somesuch.
However, The word "digging" is Pretty yawn enducing
The only thing I remember anyone calling it before "digging" was simply record "buying"......we used to go on "record buying trips".....all things considered "digging" isn't that bad.

I'd guess that the digging thread was read by a lot of lurkers who seldom or never bother to post and who won't even open threads about postage problems or pina colada enemas.
i believe i was the recipient of the lamest (and shortest) ban ever.
right after MJ passed, there was a very long thread about his death. about 10 pages in or so,i suggested in a single post that it was strange that nobody was mentioning whether his legacy might be tainted by the pedophilia allegations.
i don't even remember who banned me, but it lasted about an hour or so.

Yeah, it was supposed to be funny, so I'm glad you got it. Maybe you're getting over that time you spent with the Scientologists.
And yet you gave it an "lol."
It's funny to me that you even responded to it. Twice. Whole lotta funny going on.

Haha. I tried to find that, but I think all of his poasts have been deleted.

You have the most interesting username ever.

wait...you're from the uk, right?
"I once caught a trout THIS BIG..."
if you took the time to read the thread, you'd realize that very few stories are about the actual records, but the circumstances surrounding them.
America is great at a lot of things, but truly it's a country that fucks up chocloate and cheese.
Boycott Kraft! Boycott Cadbury's!
I don't see how anybody reading Rock's Jr and the Soulettes story (or any of his stories, really) could describe it as a 'yawnfest'.

yeah, sure it's an interesting story
Rocks fishing stories are better than most
that thread had to be about the 5th time it was posted though
Exactly why I didn't post it.
Most consistently entertaining thread in ages, especially Rock's stories.
