It's been fun......
 

...but this place is losing its relevance for me, so I'm calling it a day.
For those of you that know me and could give a shit, you can catch me on facebook or soundcloud.

Play nice now.

Bye.

bye florya

Drama queen.

Fair shout. Catch you elsewhere.

ciao

I'll certainly will continue to check out your music on Soundcloud and the info you post to facemook. I'm not very familiar with those two sites, though. I'll miss your contributions to this board. Good luck in all your endeavors. Listening Mirror is something really wonderful (I guess you won't read this)...


"To absent friends, lost loves, old gods, and the season of mists; and may each and every one of us always give the devil his due."


Goodbye, Florya.

Bye Jeff, see you on facebook

goo bah

blah


anotherr one bites the dust

later bro

It's hard to believe that this new board is already over five years old. I think my first 1000 posts came within the first year. Sadly, it has long lost its relevance for me, but I'll always still stop by.

Why make a thread? Just leave and don't make a deal about it..

Why would someone be against the existence of a thread like this one doesn't make any sense to me. It's not as if he was posting pictures of diarrhea or something that would actually offend some people's sensibilities. If there is enough freedom here permitted to pretty much anyone to post pictures of tits, beg for Cantankerous' comeback, and cry about personal misery derived from factors such as the weather, booze or drugs, or the lack of pussy; all besides the discussion of music and pop culture in general, then what's the harm in someone saying bye to our beloved mess while leaving some doors opened for communication to anyone here who cares enough about the things he posts?

Everyone needs a barometer of how well they're liked...... I'm sure this person will be back to view the results.........

Because most threads like this are just attention seeking and usually the person starting them comes back eventually. The ones who leave forever are the ones who don't leave goodbye messages and just get on with it.

ALSO:

Hmm. I think i've stepped right into the mud, and i'm probably the wrong person to say it, but i'll go ahead and post this anyway: Florya has been an active member of this board for many years, even since its previous incarnation. Therefore, it's just kind of logical to think that he already is well aware of how well liked he is in this part of the internetz. Taking this into consideration, is not difficult to understand what he has posted. I can say the impression i have of him due to the content he has posted over the years, is that of a fairly serious man, and not an attention-whore in any way whatsoever. He didn't say exactly all the reasons why he's leaving, but assuming his focus is Listening Mirror, then i would guess posting on faceboob and soundcloud as the means to promote his art, would be even more reasonable than posting here. Good thing that he let us know as well where we can reach him. Cheesy as it may sound, some of us appreciate the gesture (right? Or i'm the only one?)

Since you are someone who has made a thread about how summer is hell, that has summoned n'ik when he was absent, and who uses this board extensively as a means to promote your musical project; i'd guess you are already well aware that you have the right to post pretty much anything you might please, but it seems a bit odd that you could question Florya's actions in regards to opening such a thread as this. I just don't see the point in opposing the creation of any kind of thread. Nothing would get someone's panties in a twist if they don't permit it.

Hmm, Derek I love you man, but I can't agree with you on this one... because it doesn't seem like he made a big deal about it, to me, it was one little post, and I for one am very appreciate of Florya's last post here, as it didn't seem like some kind of attention-grab, it just seemed like something to let those who care knows that he wont' be around. Florya isn't dramatic and ridiculous..... I mean, think about some of the posts made in the past by people like S W A Y ; this had the exact opposite tone of something like that...

actually, I think it's kinda creepy when people just flat-out disappear, and some people in the past have kinda worried me with their sudden absences, so I actually appreciate the gesture in this case. Florya will be missed.

Goodbye, Florya.

Good points as usual, n'ik. Something interesting I've noticed isn't just this board that has provoked less and less people to post -- it seems like every board around has users leaving, or users who aren't posting anymore. This is something I've thought about for a long time but haven't expressed; the internet is probably technically more popular and powerful than ever; you can get on the net while you're taking a shit or fucking or in the desert or whatever, via overpriced ridiculous phones and cars and what-have-you. Libraries and coffee shops everywhere. More people infiltrating the system than ever. Yet, it seems like there's less people who have anything to say, less information traded. Has the novelty worn off? Or is there just too much to take in? I almost wonder if the sensory overload of WATCH THIS VIDEO! DOWNLOAD THIS ALBUM! CHECK THIS OUT! ETCETCETCETC has almost made us... well.. I dunno. We don't really have to say anything anymore -- we don't have to entertain each other, or ourselves, because there's SO MUCH out there to do it for us. In an age where our avatars say more about us than our actual words.

Technically, with modems faster than ever, information possible to be traded at a MUCH faster rate, more information to trade PERIOD, and unlimited space (I mean, I can just go download any game or album or movie or whatever, ever masde, in like 3 clicks; used to, it took 5 minutes to load one 320x240 jpeg!).... you'd think there'd be more to talk about. Maybe we're all bored. Spoiled. Who knows. Maybe the internet has become such a part of our lives that we just take it for granted, it is like taking a shit now or something.

Rehab is a beautiful thing.

I think you should watch the film Content by Chris Petit. It might soothe you. I'm going to bed. But take my advice.
