I like what Cylob said about message boards
" I am sort of reluctant to promote a messageboard which, although it
is supposed to be a discussion area about electronic music, is often
full of brainless waffling, wit-free internal arguments, random
insults and malicious rumours. However, there are some genuine music
fans amoung its members, and since the webmaster asked me so nicely, I
thought it would be fun to give it a try.
For the record, I haven't posted on such boards for many years, I
think the last time was in 2000 or so. When I started releasing
records, some time last century, I was always intrigued who was buying
them and what the demographic of my audience was. The internet age has
brought with it the ability for such communication to be made easily
(I have had a public email address on my site for nearly 7 years now)
and I was pleased to have the opportunity to engage with music fans
directly. However, the anonymity of the internet brings other
pitfalls, and while I was amused by the gratuitous insults and
libellous stories about my supposed behaviour, there were a few
instances of people spoofing my identity. I was amazed that these
messages were believed to be genuine! I made it my policy never to
post on these kinds of messageboards again."
