maybe the thepumpkins.net forum should become a "members only" forum. or it should at least have the option of making certain threads "private". that would of course be up to the thread/ topic starter.

seriously though- they might have to be to keep the crap to a minimum. i don't know if it could be like here where things are mostly fine and the mods mostly just post like the rest of us.

so many people ask me stuff regarding my avatar. and everytime they do i'm like "IT'S FROM THE THIRTY-THREE SINGLE, I'M NOT A COMMIE, I SWEAR" haha.

same here. :/ i'm really eager to find out how all this turns out.

lol, yeah- i couldn't resist that post though.

I've always loved that Stalin Billy picture! I remember showing it to my dad and he was like, "Well THAT explains a lot!"

Great avatar choice.

A lot of people seem to visit these boards, though a LOT more seem to visit the Pumpkins official site. I wonder how it will turn out? I guess we'll see!

What's topic stealing? You can't copyright mere ideas, people! And I'd say the whole premise of the o-boards is to be a common ground for everyone; factions of thepumpkins.net versus Netphoria versus Blamo versus SPfreaks versus Hipsters Unite should not and will not matter.

Good things are coming, I can feel it!

i asked you guys if it made sense and no one said anything. hahaha.

ok.

see, i'm in this like underground gossip thingy and perez hilton always steals stuff from this gossip site i pertain to and it's annoying. it's hard to explain.

it's not so much "topic" stealing as much as it is "credit" stealing.

you'll see what i mean when it happens.
anywho, netphoria is already planning spam attacks for the new o-board.
netphoria is full of SIFs anyway. so whatev.

oh, and i don't mean stealing "ideas", trillian.
it's more like... hmmm.
ok, you know how here on thepumpkins.net there are tons of demos and rarities that people consider hard to find and they really aren't?
like, imagine if someone on here found the studio version of the song XOX and posted the mp3 here. stuff like that happens all the time (where someone on here finds random SP demos and whatnot and posts the link). and then someone from netphoria comes on here and posts it on the o-board and takes all the credit.

wow, this sounds so selfish. hahaha.
i kind of always found thepumpkins.net as an underground sp site. you know, it's a peaceful site. and i tend not to tell any other SP fans about it, in the hopes of keeping this site peaceful.

i mean, i'm sure all the SP fans in the world want to get their hands on every single random SP leak or release possible. but, like, we're incredibly humble SP fans with valid opinions. i almost feel that what happens in thepumpkins.net should stay in thepumkpkins.net.

/end rant.

Credit is usually given where credit is due. If a topic/post/comment is used from another board, most respectful posters will quote the op. That's my biggest pet peeve, quoting your source.

yeah. it's a pet peeve of mine, too. obvs. haha.
if they give thepumpkins.net credit, then great.
i wonder how many people from sp.com are actually familiar with thepumpkins.net.
i mean, most of them know about netphoria and hipstersunited.
hmmm...

If a person is familiar with one, they're usually familiar with all the others. They may not post there, but believe me, they lurk. I wouldn't worry too much about breaking news, that usually does come from netphoria...along with a virus.

To be honest, I'm wondering why there's such an absence of info about this, and not even any discussion around it.
