I've just layeth the smackbottom on your candy a*s bucko. Damn I'm so good.


And once again your conversation turns to your fascination with my sweet ass. Despite all your denials, despite your protestations, you always return to the one subject that fills you with the most sensual of pleasure - my ass!
I realise now, you arent trolling - you want to have angry argument sex with lots of men!! You want the two of us to argue till we are blue in the face in the hope that we then have that angry make up sex the guy describes in American History X.
And as for the wrestling, lets leotard up, splash on the oil and go for it!

Reply to Post 70475 by lazarus in Facebook Killing Swindonmusic.co.uk? Quite agree, I posted a genuine music related topic this morning (mercury prize) and that has had one reply whilst over the same period this thread has had seven. It does seem that music is no longer a popular topic of conversation on this forum, unless you are trying to flog a guitar!


I don't think you can have a problem with people using the classifieds; that's what they're there for, after all. I've started countless threads about music on this forum and most of them have been popular, but since the forum has gone downhill a bit, there's not enough activity to have a decent discussion, so you think 'why bother?' It's nobody's fault; it's just the way things have gone. And it's inevitable that when someone starts being a tool, people are going to pipe up. Anyway, your Mercury Prize thread has several replies now (including one from me), so keep your chin up, eh!

Very true, I guess I was being a bit flippant mixed with a touch of weariness. I think the point was really that classifieds used to be a practical bolt on to the main discussions now it's becoming the raison d'etre, but like you say, no one to blame.

Peaks and troughs, I think it will pick up again, there's still a core of music fans who read the forum, however not so many of them are posting at the moment.

I feel quite strongly about local music forums. Without the combined efforts of the Swindon Music Forum (and prior to that both the 4th Street and Furnace forums) I'd have never started promoting gigs when I moved back to Swindon in 2005 (well that and a fair bit of encouragement from Dust, Shaun Buswell and Dave Young). ......cue some witty comment from Mr Franklin : )

Why don't we all invite three people to join? New blood is what any community thrives on.

SMF recruitment drive is a good idea

I suspect quite a few people still "browse" the forum they just don't bother posting because it's been so quiet.

I'm happy to start pushing it a bit more at the Songs of Praise band nights at The Vic if that helps?
