Maybe it's just the summer period. BTW, www.stratovarius.org is closed as well ???

I've just been too lazy to post :eyes But that's just me :D
In the beginning it seems that a known face beyond having fun,
Which is why you write music in the first place,
Always moving, defining, and pushing forward the art that once created,
Looking to the right time to share it,
And then the headaches of criticism,
Senior advisors advising people above,
Twisting, distorting that which we love,
And never ending problems with money,
Holding you back,
Preventing progress,
I thought you only started 'cause it was fun.

Sometimes posting gets boring...especially the same ol topics.
Yeah, in summertime there is more exciting things to do than post on a forum. ;)

I don't think the forum is dying, though--it has not got that bad!

Well, the Tolkki forum went out of business, and that was a real shame. It hosted some interesting discussions, more in the vein of free-style philosophy than on the Stratovarius forum, which seems to be a little too "focused". I will really miss it. I guess we'll just have to philosophize about Timo Kotipelto's snakeskin boots now. But, hey, there is tourism and there is travelling. Beyond those, there is exploring. Now, if only I could find some companions for the expedition. After all, a gentleman requires somebody to carry his luggage...

*throws a grenade into the forum*..



Now it´s dead, stop discussing about it! =P


No.. honestly.. I don´t think it´s dying.. it´s really just the summer period thing.. why should we stay at the computer all the time when the weather is that nice?.. There are many festivals at the moment too and concerts and whatever.. I think it will get better again ;)

Anyway I'll be back posting regularly in two weeks.

Haven't seen that many topics lately that have caught my interest. No offense to anyone, just haven't felt like participating in discussion lately. ;)

Likewise, C - nothing interesting to comment on and since I don't obsess with musicians' personal traits and couldn't care less for tabs, lyrics, or lengthy deliberation over trying to see how much I can read into the cover art for an album or suss out the nonexistent profound symbolism of all of the aforementioned, I guess I'm just shit out of luck for a topic to discuss. :buh:

Well, I'm not going anywhere... eyes

In every forum I've ever been part of, there are times when people sense the place is dying. It has always been temporary.
Usually the webforums die when the webmasters(those big bastards ;)) want to get rid of them.

Well I think every forum has this kind of period from time to time. No need to worry 'bout that.
I mostly read here and don't write so much.... it's really hard to 'get' in a community like this so I think I'll keep reading here regularly and posting from time to time. Perhaps there are some others here that do the same...*shrugs*
