Isnt it time..that the topic´s on this great site..get serious??!!

Enuff of the:Name your greatest this or that!

                 : What to bring on an island!

                 : Are YES better than ....???

Blah..blah...blah.........

This site ..in my opinion..are one of the best in our progworld.

Sure there are other fine progsites out there..but this one still

holds it mark. So...i can allready hear the response:

"Get down from your high horse"!! "Who are you to judge?"

"What did you bring to this site?"...well...right you are,im

an ex-collaborator on progarchives. But thatdoesnt mean that

my opinion are less,than yours!!

I just think that we (progarchives) need to get out of

kindergarden!!

If this site are supposed to be the greatest in our progworld...

then...yes you´ve guessed it!!!

Forget the hitlist thing..who´s better than ...blah..blah.....

and the:which guitar player...blah..blah....

yeah i know ive joined those polls once in a while...but seriously

guys...wakeup.......powerfull prog site...powerfull knowledge

....serious commitment.

So whats my thread?? Well here goes:

"What did CAMEL ( the band) use as soundeffect on their brilliant

: Snow goose"...when trying to illustrate goose´s wing???

yeah thats right...go get me!!!

sorry, but if we only had threads like that, it would reduce the forum discussion to technical debates only interesting for those who are musicians themselves

Hi baldjean...well..i see your point...but why not??

Isnt it tiresome with all that...comparing this to that??

ive read your reply´s often..and you seem like my kind of

progfriend! If ive read you right ...you are NOT the hitlist

this or hitlist that..kinda progfriend!!

We could ask ourselves...what kinda progsite would be the best ever??

Kind regards to Baldjean.

I think this site actually currently suffers from a serious lack of musical discussions.

...absolutely right on there BaldJean.

Tonny, we all appreciate what exactly you're trying to aim for,  unfortunately many of us(including myself) love prog music but do not possess the technical knowledge to answer such questions.

So, by all means start a thread where you can discuss such matters about The Snow Goose but please just get to the point of your thread without the rants. That will only make people angry and therefore achieve exactly what you don't want to happen.

Wouldn't the Tech-talk section of the forum do for a question like the snow goose one. (Just bought that album, absolutely WONDERFUL!!!) I myself never have used that section so I don't know if it's well used.

Gdub11 Hey friend..thanks for your response...but thats excactly my point...i know that we (the progcommunity) dont wanna "bother" with details of this and that.... in some recording.

Im merely trying to get some serious thought as to what this

site is about!!! I gather that you (like me) dont want this site to be a kinda...pop issue magasine like site!!??

I for one would like a serious prog orientated well documented

kinda site!!

I mean seriously....what up with the hitlist kinda thing???

Peace...all the best!!

I think that sections is intended for gear discussions - musical instruments, setup, configurations etc. ... or HiFi systems.

It was a duffle coat..."played" by Doug Ferguson.  The problem with your "thread" is that it was a closed question, meaning there is a single right answer.  No room for opinion.  No room for discussion.  You asked, I answered.  Thread closed.  Do you see the problem with eliminating all of the "who's the best guitar player?", "is yes better than genesis?" and so on threads.  It would be a very shallow forum if we did that.
