I was, once... never found the threads of any personal interest, so I don't even open them any more... (I had a Takamine, by the way, but didn't bother to read the thread..) Somebody must be interested, because others post to them.. Whatever turns you on...

I believe it is being tolerated out of compassion for a deteriorating condition, or some thing like that.

I think the 53 refers to a 1953 Ford (or Chevvy)

Nathan:

How many holes in your guiter? is not a musical thread. And I think the bitching has dropped way down since the BS filter was introduced.

What ever happened ti 53 anyway? I thought having two posters with the same name was quite entertaining.

Good point, Amergin. But, if you read the first post on the "D chord" thread, it doesn't appear to have been intended to be a musical thread...though many did submit musical responses.

Benjamin,

53 refreshed his threads that are now on the board again. So he is still around.

53 is obviously someone bemoaning the total lack of instrument threads of late. I just looked, and except for the guitar threads he has refreshed there is not a single instrument thread on the forum. (Well, there's the "Ask Dr. Guitar" thread, but that's applying a pretty liberal interpretation of the term "instrument thread".)

Personally, I like guitars. In fact, I like guitars better than anything in the world besides women. In fact, I'm not so sure about the women thing either. I have posted to a couple of the refreshed threads because I did not have a computer when they were originally on the forum and the subjects are of interest to me. If older threads are refreshed to give newcomers, or people who may have missed the thread the first time around a chance to throw in their two-cents-worth I see nothing wrong with it. If you saw it or posted to it the first time around, just pretend it's a S*****r thread and ignore it.

Leadfingers, a simple search on 53's posts, going back to the start and skimming forward, would answer your question, and it's what's usually done here when one has a question about someone's posting history or their place at the Mudcat. Click the underlined 53 in the header of Bob's post to see how this works.

Yeah, Bob, good to have ya' back! And as fir 53? I enjoyed being 53 so much that I'm now on my 3rd time being 53...

And keep up those *signiture* threads. They're *harmless and fun*. How about one on the best way to get a lost pick out of your guitar? Or one on changing a broken string in the middle of a song?

Nice to hear from ya'.

Hi, Bobert: How about a thread on the importance of having a cat to bat at your strings when you change them?

That's an easy one, Jerry. Take up the violin and the cat will just run away everytime you pick it up :)

This thread really bugs me. I've been tempted to delete it, or at least close it so people can't post to it - but I don't want to give people the idea that we censor too heavily. The thread started out as a personal attack, which means that somebody gets hurt every time a message is posted and refreshes the thread. I had hoped that the majority of people would be nice enough and wise enough to let this thread die a quiet death.
It's a hard decision, but, I think I will close the thread. It just doesn't seem right, to start a thread to attack another member, even if that member responded with his usual good humor. Find something else to talk about.
