Hi guys!
Firstly, I have to say I'm flattered that so many of the good folks of OCRemix have taken the time to register here at Gamingforce to tell me they don't care about my opinion. If I had known that OCRemix was such a source of lulz, I might have registered there rather than here all those years ago and now it could be me coming here to tell a different me that I don't care about my opinion. Imagine the hilarity that would ensue from that little conversation eh?
Secondly, whilst I thank you all for taking the time out to inform me that I am wrong in my assertion that every single tune on OCRemix is a piece of shit dance music effort made by a 13 year old on an Amiga, had you all and Mr Liontamer in particular bothered to read the tl;dr post I made a few pages back, you'll have seen that I never actually said that and was simply commenting that the dance music that is there is of a generally poor quality. I know it was a long post and reading that much text is probably tough for the kind of people who don't think that computer game music isn't quite niche enough already and are arrogant enough to believe they can improve on it (Not that I'm saying you aren't, a lot of vgm is really, really shit and it wouldn't take much to improve it) but if you're going to take the time to register here and tell me how wrong I am, I'd have thought you might have at least bothered to find out what I was saying that you were disagreeing with in the first place.
I mean sure, I was probably insulting you, if you're one of the OCRemixers (OCRers? OMixers? What is it you kids call yourself anyway?) who specialises in dance music but it was more of a critique of the American electronica scene in general and as has been so rightly pointed out, it's not the first time I've made these broad statements here and previously to this, I've avoided incurring the wrath of the wider, American dance music community.
So I'm afraid to say that you chaps seem to have had a wasted trip. That's not to say you're not welcome here of course. Gamingforce is always happy to welcome new members and as a highly diverse community, you're bound to find some like-minded folk to chat with and you never know, you might even find some other people here who like you, have spent the last 5 years perfecting the art of using really expensive computer programmes to create free-form jazz versions of One-Winged Angel or whatever it is you've all moved on to since the heady days of Fruity Loops and 90's Eurohouse.
Welcome to Gamingforce guys, nice to meet you all. Have fun posting around but do take a bit of time to read a few posts here and there before you start posting yourselves. You'll notice we have certain expectations of our members in so far as reading other people's posts and framing coherant replies go but we're not ogres or anythng and as Liontamer has demonstrated, even someone with a minimal grasp of English can fit right in here for a long time before we notice what a tool they are.
