- It's not. Trust me. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 8, 19:11

I officially feel sad for Dmac. -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 18:44 36
- yikes, Just read where pegleg gave him the business. ouch. -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 18:46 35
  - Knowing peglegpete, he was probably giving him a ribbing and D. Mac took it the wrong way. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 8, 19:12 1
    - I didn't see it that way. Maybe he should have used a :) -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 19:32
  - Yeah, I have been tweaking Dmac, but that was just mean. -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 18:49 7
    - until Uwe Boll and JK Simmons get StarBonds he is Meat for the Grinder! -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 18:52 6
      - Yeah, WTF is up with the JK Simmons argument? -- nm - kelly Jan 8, 18:58 5
        
        I learned a long time ago that DMac can be just illogically stubborn about the simplest things sometimes. Otherwise, he's a decent guy. - Trish Jan 8, 19:16
        
        It's just amazing to me that people still care that much about that shit. -- nm - mara Jan 8, 19:11 2
        
        UBOLL and JKSIM are the new PINK2 -- nm - Roger More Jan 8, 19:12
        
        True, but DMac's reasoning really is ridiculous there. -- nm - kelly Jan 8, 19:12
        
        he certainly has galvanized the Stars Board. -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 18:59
  - here or on the old site? -- nm - Guy Jan 8, 18:49 24
    - Link -- (link) - Redmond $ Jan 8, 18:51 22
      - D.Mac is kind of carrying that board. He's it's biggest poster now. And he used to rarely post on it. -- nm - the liioulu with something Jan 8, 18:57 6
        
        I think it's a conscious business decision to spark conversation. I am sure this was all discussed in a meeting. - Redmond $ Jan 8, 19:01 2
        
        I agree with whoever it was (mara?) who said that HSX should can the Misc board and build a new community on Movies - Roger More Jan 8, 19:15
        
        the bathroom kind of meeting? -- nm - Guy Jan 8, 19:03
        
        He probably posts just as much, but they're easier to see now. ;) -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jan 8, 18:58 2
        
        Nice! -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 19:01
        
        heh -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 18:59
      - wow... so they STILL haven't switch to the new site since that big fiasco months ago?? - Guy Jan 8, 18:53 14
        
        To your IM. Only if they are smart. -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 18:55
        
        secretstalker says he's been lead to believe it's not coming back at all. -- nm - mara Jan 8, 18:55 12
        
        They're focusing on Cantor Exchange right now... and I'm not even sure that's a good idea. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 8, 19:13 2
        
        I'm hugely skeptical about the Cantor Exchange myself. -- nm - mara Jan 8, 19:15 1
        
        I don't really understand it but I never play the real stock market. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 8, 19:15
        
        hilarious. that has to be one of the most poorly executed re-design I've ever seen -- nm - Guy Jan 8, 18:57 7
        
        Everyone in beta warned them. I think the HSX egos got in the way. Beta testers knew it was shit. -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 19:00 5
        
        To be fair, even DMac gave the impression he thought it was a baaaaaaaaad idea -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 19:02 4
        
        Then he was right. And then it's too bad he is taking all the heat for it. -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 19:05 3
        
        Is that what he's taking heat for? I thought he was taking heat for showing disdain for veteran players for quite some time. -- nm - mara Jan 8, 19:13 2
        
        Agreed. Some of his communications dripped with distain. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 8, 19:23
        
        He's taking heat for more than one thing. He took a lot with the new version of HSX, which really wasn't his decision -- nm - Roger More Jan 8, 19:17
        
        Yeah. -- nm - ESPN Jan 8, 19:00
        
        They are just trying to keep the last person that goes to HSX from leaving. -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 18:57
    - TT - Misc. -- nm - Beaker Jan 8, 18:50

        I am sure by now they know about GUY. Like noise would bother them? -- nm - Redmond $ Jan 8, 18:58 4
        
        they dont seem to mind all the late night squealing -- nm - Guy Jan 8, 19:04 3
        
        there are muzzles you can get they look like metal bowls but I'm not sure what they are really called, anyway they lower the sound. -- nm - Stacy Jan 8, 19:08 2

      - I played soccer as well from 5 to 18...PAL league (Police Athletics League) -- nm - Stacy Jan 8, 19:04
- I played for 2 years, it isnt too hard, but it sucks if you have a cold sore on your mouth -- nm - Stacy Jan 8, 18:42
- You need a good ear. Part of what creates the pitch is the muscles in your mouth and throat. -- nm - mara Jan 8, 18:42 1
  - i have a pretty good ear from guitar & singing. so, perhaps i could learn from just playing around until I'm hearing the notes i want? -- nm - Guy Jan 8, 18:47
- And where have you been? -- nm - nubby Jan 8, 18:40 1
