Yep.

Bout time. I've wanted to do this for awhile. Post 'em if you got 'em. :yes:

MonkeyMan/Mods - please do not move this to Off Topic. We will keep this clean enough an political free. If we move it there it will get destroyed :D

Plus we need something here that is light hearted and fun, especially for those that dare NOT enter the OT. Similar to GGF's thread.

Rule #1 - No political BS please. If you are that compelled, make your own thread in teh OT.
Rule #2 - No nudity, harassments, threats or other off put bullshit. This is a great community. Don't be that guy.

GO!

I will kick it off and I'm going to reserve some space for Epic Threads so start collecting those, even from other forums like TGP and old HCAF.

WTF?. This is RIG TALK!
You must acquire another amp that does what you need.
This will help continue the inevitable cycle of amp flipping needed for this forum to thrive.
You can't think logically and try to make what you have work for it's unintended purposes...that will cause others to think logically.
Not only would this cause the implosion of the forum,but could destroy the internet entirely.


Whoa guy! John Mayer is super talented and plays with such sincerity bro! That face he makes that looks like he is going to puke when he does a bend is super intense! You can just totally tell that he feels like every note. And when he covers Van Halen nobody does it better!


Welcome Steve!!

We have a 12 step program to help you get through the initial urges you may have:

1. We admitted we were powerless over gear addiction—that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power Chord greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to Rig Talk.
4. Made a searching and fearless inventory of our gear.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our gear whoreness.
6. We’re entirely ready to have the classified section remove all these defects of gear we don’t want.
7. Humbly asked Rig Talk members to remove our doubts about buying more gear
8. Made a list of all gear we had harmed, modified or otherwise screwed up and became willing to make amends
9. Made direct amends to such gear hoarding wherever possible, except when to do so would require further gear reduction.
10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly NEVER admitted it.
11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with great gear, praying only for knowledge and skill to use it.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to gear whores everywhere, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

I predict this thread will not be as epic as your O.G. Tom Morello thread Thump....unless he's playing a Kirk Hammet solo on a Larry while doing the chick from polyphia from behind.....

Question, how come the “What’s New” doesn’t populate the threads contained in the Off Topic Forum?
 
I think Brother Monkey Nik said 'clutter'? Guessing actually.

OT'rs know where to go :D
Actually, it was because snowflakes complained 'cause they didn't want to see the links to / accidentally stumble upon "offensive" OTC material.

I kid not; there were quite a few complaints. :dunno: This is also why I suggested the sub-forum be moved to the bottom of the main list, 'cause, you know, best get free speech as far away from mainstream view as practically-possible. :LOL:

*Reported*
 
Part of my job is to anticipate needs, so I've removed my now-redundant "banner heads-up" sticky in order to "make room" for this to become one.

As you know Brother 3, I always try to keep the floating threads to a minimum for lack-of-clutter's sake. The CBD-gummies thread will be unstuck as soon as that stuff's played-out.

Oh, and I edited the title - added the word "thread" 'cause it sounded like an incomplete statement.

I’d personally like to complain about those complainers. Where’s the manager!
