BP's Guide to Surfing the EB Forum

[Big Poppa]

Hello Kids!

I notice that there are a lot of threads that get pretty funny that have a narrow viewing audience. I also notice that some people have posted, "WOW, 187 people online!" But I check and there are 500at that time. The reason I figure is that most of you just either go to the bass side or the guitar side. In the beginning the bass side had the best stuff and the guitar side was a bunch of insecure drooling dolts...Sure NorM still on the 6 string side, but what an extreme makeover! The guitar guys have a sense of humor!!!!!!
Here's how I get the most out of this viral thing :

Stumble out of bed.

change my depends. Just kidding...

Try to figure out where I am and start crawling for the expresso machine.

Flip life fluid machine on

Plop in front of the Laptop and hit EBForums Main Page.

First I hit 'quick links' and see how namy people we have online. WHen I started posting we had between 40-60 and now it is usually over 500. THis has really grown and I am really proud of the shape this thing is in. we have the pest posters and mods going.

Then I hit New Posts and scan them all.

Try it! It's almost harmless!

Will do BP. I guess it doesn't hurt to hang out with guitar players. Too much any way.

[Psycho Ward]

.... well come to think of it, yes. But only as a fashion statement.

I like to "view who's online" and see what everyone's looking at -- this, however, kinda makes me feel like a stalker.

Then, of course, the obligatory "new posts". Love that tool! The only issue is if you don't view all the new posts the first time you log in for the day, you'll miss the growth of the virus when you log back in a 2nd time because the system thinks you've already seen those posts since the last time you logged in. Did that make sense?

 

[Big Poppa]

yeah it does...with the new posts you have to view them completely but I found it saves time anyway

 

[lenny]

I am trying The New way as we Speak! i always did the whos online but the new posts is cool is gives you all of the posts in the forum,Thanx for the tip BP

 

[Fuzzy Dustmite]

BP, that's exactly how I roll. Of course, minus the quick links, expresso & depends.

 

[Mobay45]

Most of the time I only have time to keep up with the Bass Forum. I'll start trying to do that when I come here with a little extra time.

 

[Figjam]

I venture over to the guitar forum every now and then...

[nicolasd]

i like the subtext in BP's post:

"go play with your little brother! he's all by himself!"

 

[sandman@midlife]

"we have the pest posters and mods going."

I love this site!

But do you have to call me a pest poster?

May I have my green bass now please?

Tony

 

[Lazybite]

[Big Poppa]
