Why Thumped? (1 Viewer)

[chickenham]

didn't you get the memo? nah, was going to type thumpsters but that was more lamer

I thought it was 'thumpeteers'

 

[roxy]

where? i dunno about listings but none of the bands i'm interested in are covered on the cluases of this world

He said

where else are you gonna find out what's going on in the auld irish music scene?

my answer was "loads of places"

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

if you like we can change if to 'thumponaut' for you, dee

 

[brianoak]

I dunno,most people are pretty nice on the board(myself included I like to think) but if you post something stupid you should be berated for it in the same way you would if you said it in the pub,you cant take seriously though.Jesus I can think of two people I could do for libel if I did

their are currently 100 active people on the board at the moment and 244 people have logged on today, yet so few people post regularly.
probably out of absolute dread.

 

[Donkey OJ]

just wondering if you know any thumpers in the real world. it makes a big difference.

good point.
i know who a good few of the posters are but i couldnt say i know them off thumped. i doubt if i'm unique in that respect.

When I first started posting on Thumped I remember thinking all my own posts were retarded and that all the regular posters were probably an uber-cool, devestatingly witty, sophisticated, sexy clique that would never accept me. I suppose starting to get rep points for my retarded posts made me think "Heyyy these guys must all be morons if they think I'M cool. I'm going to call them all morons."

Faggot.

woah - roxy dons the homophobia hat.

 

[plug]

em..shall i draw you up a list?

(please say no.....but just acknowledge my point that there are loads of places with far more gig comprehensive gig listings than thumped)

mmm... nah, I don't really mean listings specifically. you know banter about bands and shit. hype, in some cases. knowharramean!?

I'm fucking tired tired tired tired of your hate roxy.

 

[snakybus]

in fairness Roxy, that was pretty X-treme, c'mon

 

[Donkey OJ]

In all seriousness Donkey, there are journals devoted to New Media which publish articles dealing with these themes. For example, why do people find it so easy to discuss ultra-personal problems with strangers on the internet. Etc..etc..

Just saying, if it's something that you do find interesting, there's plenty of research done, and plenty of reading available.

care to actually contribute something roxy? i'm looknig for thumped specific user experience. nothing more really.

Are you getting sarky? Just I hope not coz i was genuinely trying to be helpful. In my college (DIT) (when i was a student) we had New Media journals and from the sounds of your posts it seemed like it was something you were actually curious about.

If you're askin whether I'd care to offer a Thumped-related article to this journal for publicatoin, then.....I'm afraid not, seeing as English isn't my first language.
