new here

Hi, new here. wanted to introduce myself. I'm from queens and long island but live in brooklyn now specifically Stuyvesant Heights (ie Bed Stuy). I play in a few bands. Thank you.

Welcome -- how'd you find out about us?

and you think you're worth your own thread already? WTF, dude? There's something called proto-f'ing-col.

kidding. HI!

Hello, nice to meet you.

well i dont know actually, i think i did a search on a few things and they all linked here...I've been looking for an all music board for some time now. BCO and VLV are too big...Maybe this one will stick. I'm trying to wrap my head around this layout here. definitely kinda weird. how many other people post here?..

Haha - you can change the style in your preferences, but they're probably all 'weird'.

Hi Francis. What are BCO and VLV?

our layout makes sooooo much more sense than most webboards.

i'd guess we've busier than both bco and vlv though?

Hey dude, welcome to ILX. as a musician, don't be afraid to come visit I Make Music (IMM) as well. (which is not exactly a hotbed of activity, but we are a friendly bunch)

xpost last i checked we were slightly above 10000 registered users (not all of which post, of course)

viva la vinyl and board crewcial

Hi Francis! Welcome.

http://board.crewcial.org

http://board.vivalavinyl.org

oh thanks!

definitely kinda weird.

Nah it's just relaxed (and like ian sez, makes WAY more sense than other spots). But Keith's right about other options.

What are BCO and VLV?

And should we be organizing a fight with them?

vlv is http://board.vivalavinyl.org/

xposts

oh wow! its a lot bigger than both of those places! ok then!

theres a few vlv'ers on here and some BCO . Im only on vlv

Incorrect, Keith, we should be saying "...and can we eat them?"

Seconding on I Make Music, even though I am never there (except for fake U2 cover projects).

4,457 registered users 164,556 threads 7,321,463 messages (figures updated daily)

I zap uses that don't log in for six months too, so that figure is pretty accurate.

how long has this board been around for? and i'd like to LOL at some of the comments made about Blank Dogs in that other thread....

see i am obv not to be trusted xpost

The original board is almost nine years old; ILE started in 2001 and the rest of the boards followed as they did.

Now the crucial question -- what are these bands you play in and where are their sites?

You can see some of the old stuff here:

francis what's your username on vlv? (and dont say santa dog :) )

oh hmmm. well im a bit apprehensive to give up ALL of my personal information. Not that the bands blow or anything, but I'd like reserve some anonymity before acting like a complete idiot on this thing...

if you really wanna know, send me a private message with personal information about yourself. Tit for Tat...

are there pm's on this thing?

No, but you can webmail individuals (click on the link that is someone's username).

not santa dog. and i dont really post on VLV. too many screamo revivalists and hardcore purists, although there are some very cool people on that board.

Hehe no worries, Francis -- actually quite understood!

Get them here, and get them to renounce their devotion to the other board (x-post).

hi francis! your name is my middle name.

vlv has assholes from all forms of music not just those!

bco is mostly vegans with bad tattoos

also dudes who have hot chicks waiting in their beds for them

oooh, i like the webmail function. pretty sweet!

also lots of people from scotland/england here! awesome! i am a british comedy freak. (no IT crowd. blech)

Yes, I am from Scotland... But, how do you know that!?

hi Francis. ILM is cool and all, but don't forget to check out ILE and all of the other boards. I didn't realize there was another board other than ILM for several months after I first posted here.

plenty of British comedy on this messageboard even!

ILE? link please?

And sometimes LJ tries his hand too!

i think it was in your profile, keith

ILE http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/NewAnswersControllerServlet?boardid=40

Actually Francis just go here:

http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/index.jsp

And explore.

it says on my profile where im from too I think.

Oh yeah, so it is...

dude this is all you need: Site New Answers

oh gotcha, i love everything.

ILE? link please?

At the top of the screen click on "boards", then click on "I Love Everything". Later, if you decide to stick around you can put quick links to any board by messing around with the preferences.

haha unfortunately my name is not Francis.

danka!

If Dom wasn't banned

When was Dom banned? I must have been away with the fairies when that happened. I recall he was one of the only regular posters in I Love WWE, but I mostly lurk on the Rolling Metal Thread so I don't know what else he could've been up to.

i'm not sure. I was unaware of it at the time until i saw some usernames mentioning it

5 march 2009

is there a crying eagle jpeg to go with that?

if not, why not?

the only thing i know, is that he had 2 accounts with an apostrophe in a different place so that he avoided 51 suggest bans by splitting them up. Then a mod noticed and totalled them up.

You gotta laugh at him thinking of that and getting away with it for so long.

I hope no one suggested banning me for, I dunno, not liking the second half of 'Call Me' by Throwing Muses or something. (Or have I just brought the wrath upon myself?)

sugbans have only happened to high-profile posters (dom, morbius, gabbers) and egreigious trolls (tuomas).

Although I've been happily blasting away at the small fry.

I'm trying to wrap my head around this layout here. definitely kinda weird.

One reason I continue posting here is that it's so much easier on the eye than most boards and I don't have to put up with all those animated Avatars and so forth.

I use old.css: Original ILX2 Live Stylesheet

Jimmy here. New since yesterday.Owwwwww.

jimmy how did you find us?

"awful"

jimmy, francis: here is the bar:

greetings, all

can you reach it?

Oh, I forget. Looking at some U.S. Maple reviews or something.

(xpost) First two posts on that thread foreshadow sooooo much...

Too true.

Ned's first post there both hopeful and poignantly hopeless, like a Nazi officer saying to Hitler, "Well, maybe we don't have to kill them..."

francis your connection to williamsboard bothers me

actually wait, i do but i havent been on it in ages.

Too true.

It's really the first four that make it.

<3<3<3s for felt!

Williamboard is BCO but only for people who live in Williamsburg, not Philly.

frajancis

VLV is described as bco's retarded younger brother

Stuyvesant Heights (ie Bed Stuy)

what a debut

Maybe this one will stick.

;_;

i am currently a white man. Although I'm part italian.

I was new in 09 too. I'm still white.

hi guys, im back. sorry for not keeping up on the thread and posting. i lost my password so i created a new account.

since we've last conversed, ive moved to germany and play music in two (new) projects, work as a freelancer (mostly english teaching and some radio stuff)!

i kinda miss nyc, but not really!

anyways! hello and glad to be back on board.

Hi there. So how's Deutschland in general these days.

I love when this thread gets revived and there's two new answers and the last one's by Ned and you know there's welcoming vibes to be read.

everything is pretty good actually. i dont live in berlin, which is good. my rent is ridiculously cheap and so is food. ich kann sehr gut deutsch sprechen already, only after being here for about a year.

how are you, ned?

what are your thoughts on a moanwave revival?

do you hang w/T0m Sm1th?

oh yea, i basically work three days a week. i have a practice space next door to my apartment which i pay 15 euros a month for. are there any other germans here, and or ex pats? is there a sub forum for those kinda people?

yes indeed, do we know each other sara?

we are facebook friends! didn't know you had ex-patted tho!

how are you, ned?

Relaxed, thanks!

hi ned wilkommen aus ilx

I'm just a simple unfrozen board poster.

hi francis

nice, sara! i think i have an inkling as to who you are!

ok ill let this thread die, unless other posters dont want to.

I was thinking of going to Germany, but will end up visiting family in Switzerland.

Either way, I have to brush up on my Deutsch!

hi francis

say hi to all, big or small

hope SourPatchCorpse drops by too
