but the difference is, there are no mods to remove it on the oboard... here we actually have representation and care about what we do... therefore advertising to send people *away* from a board we support on our board, probably isn't the best thing for us to leave around...

This board is heavenly in my opinion.
Get this, I've been on a ton of MBs litterally a ton! for example: About 10 different LP bords, VCMB, This board, 3 John Mayer boards, 2 Josh Kelley boards, LPU and LP.com boards, 3 Different Local Radion station boards, Mudvayne boards, Audioslave boards, Local Media Discussion Board, Eminem, No Doubt, even Limp Bizkit and tons more! I'm not just listing one's I've been on either...I'm listing one's that I've posted on, and usually go to once a day...But most of them I lurk on now, just because.
The boards I've seen are crazy! The LPU and LP.com boards and 1 John Mayer board seem to be the only organized board out of all of those. (That is other than my
LP board and my
Josh Kelley Boards Sadly there are just a few ORGANIZED BOARDS in the world. I mean on the Mudvayne boards especially, they had about 5 people labeled 'moderator' and yet I made a thread about LP (muah!) and people came to that thread and were able to get away with saying the most degrading stuff to and about any person I think I have ever seen! I mean they tore up whatever they wanted, and even one mod joined in on the degrading. And they talked about everything, sexually degrading to musically degrading. I mostly lurk that board now just to find news...
on the VCMB, I'd bet they could and do get away with just about any of that too. And I don't like that, and I don't like all the flooders, it's funny to me how flood control comes on old timers, and then some people can still flood.
It's not organized...There are no sections...There's rarly VC related stuff, and if there is it's ignored...for the most part...And they can't pull any "There's no news and her CD isn't near release!" There's plently of news, and we get it on the NESSAholics board. (Example: Rolling Stone, and Playboy interviews)
I definatly love this board more, because the rules make it more fun, rather you think they do or not, I'd say about 90% of regular posters here are very happy with the rules.
I can't keep rambling on, but I think Katia, and BV and all the mods are incredibly nice people, and do a great job running this board! Remember when the VCMB was down for 1+ week? This board was up and running! And Katia does great keeping everything upgraded and getting us great new features...(The online button at the side of posts, Moderator colors and all that!)
You'll have to have rules sometime, you won't get far in life if you don't learn to follow them...
And as for BV 'brainwashing' people to come here. I didn't see any spining thing warping their brains. I come here by choice and love it here. He just made it so people would know, and I'm glad he does, cause the more people the more fun!
