Let’s all take a step back.
There’s obviously some misunderstandings happening here and on other threads. I truly believe there were no bad intentions in any of them.
There’s no tone in written word (it goes both ways), there’s also some generation gaps (across several generations actually) to take into account.
@Glitch have some patience, and chin up. You have to understand we’re not your average internet community. If you check this thread Bassbuzz Demographics (a poll), you’ll see we’re on the older side of the spectrum.
Old people like us don’t like change just for the sake of change. So requests like thread renaming (where we see no reason for it) or requests to change nicknames (there’s no problem if someone already has a mildly similar nickname) don’t come across too well. I understand where you come from when you ask stuff about badges or make a comment about the number of likes, etc., and I can see it was without a drop of bad intention. But you have to understand that comes out as a bit spammy to us. You’ll learn to read your audience eventually. Sometimes when the world doesn’t adapt to us, we have to adapt to the world. Just follow the forum rules and common netiquette and you’ll be fine.
Don’t quit on us just now. There’s much to learn in here and it would be a pity to miss on that just because some misunderstandings and generation gaps are in place. Take a step back and dry those tears.
Now, grab your bass and play some tunes!
