Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

We have 161 different banners. If I had them all in rotation, then your browser would essentially have to keep a mini mp3 in its cache at all times; for those users who don't frequent the site often, it's going to require downloading them every time. The banners are regularly rotated (and have been for years) to keep the cache/download time low while also making sure a particular set of banners don't get burnt out quickly.

Besides, you've had yours for 8 years... can't I have my 8 days? :(

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

^^ Let me think about that :lol:

I only asked for 5 :( It feels like an eternity :( :lol: Btw this was definitely meant to be a lighthearted play on the fact that the artists rotating at the moment are very representative of RA. I would hate for you to defect to them :lol:

I thought this was going to be about MS people turning into retard hipsters.

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

Have you heard the new track by Gustiflkj Fckuassdfjk?

Only 3 copies were released. He sampled a cat getting a thermometer shoved up its ass, reversed it and looping it over a kick drum and a Pharaoh Sanders solo. He plays with the flanger for 45 minutes. Fucking tune of the year!

We could get rid of the one of the speaker, it just reminds me my speakers need refoaming :lol:

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

The initial ones I made which are no longer in circulation were based on the top subscribed DJs on this site. I thought that made sense :)

BTW, being on RA or MS is not a mutually exclusive thing... ;)

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

^^^ It is for me. :lol: Particularly after the article nikoa put up in the other thread. :lol:

I was joking about the coup, but it's real, :( and not content to co exist you want to conquer us :lol:

Thanks :)

And I agree... they're definitely not mutually exclusive. I was on RA before MS (when it was a prog based site) and continue to visit it.

Thanks for all the new banners, Nikoa and also to Vinnie for the Jody Wisternoff motive! They are all online now and you will see them once your cache has refreshed.

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

I friggin love...love...love the new banners. It's good to see [ms] growing beyond the chains that bind it. And without a doubt...the Ida banner is fucking hot. She has been one of my top Jayne's in the last year. If you dont know about her, I suggest you seek her out. She ripped DEMF a new asshole last year. Complaining that there aren't enough banners of dj's who are going to need their diapers changed in the near future is such a joke.

And nikoa, stating the bleeding obvious , how can you possibly say you certainly haven't met me if you don't know who I am :lol:

Thanks for all the new banners, Nikoa and also to Vinnie for the Jody Wisternoff motive! They are all online now and you will see them once your cache has refreshed.[/QUOTE] Gee I wonder how Hernan, Danny, John, Sasha and Nick would feel about being usurped, all guys who very generously share with us. Particularly by people like Danny Tenaglia who won't share anything musically without us paying. And locodice who after Hernan struggled for 4 hours to make it worthwhile for his fans , decided the sound system didn't work well enough for him??

The joke is MS would be important to Hernan , John , Sasha and Nick . I doubt that applies to our new banners. These are the guys who did and still do make MS great. Yet here we have members baying for their blood ! Slight exaggeration there :)

This is not the spirit of MS that I have come to know and love. :(

[QUOTE]that there aren't enough banners of dj's who are going to need their diapers changed in the near future [/QUOTE]

There should be room for all without taking away from any. It is good for to grow, but to refer to the Djs who helped make us great as chains is just staggering.

Btw I think the banners of Ida, Claude, and Villalobos are absolutely stunning, unfortunately it shows up the lesser quality of some of the others.

Btw I wish people would stop this as either one or the other . We should have all!! I have never asked for anything to be taken down. Well, except the speaker one :lol: I keep saying there should be room for all ! The best thing about EDM is the diversity . I wouldn't complain about Armin either :)

Banners need more Chloe Harris Boat Photo imo, but that one seems to have fallen off the internet now.

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

Nice one on the new images by nikoa being employed.

Another suggestion to Adam the Picklemonkey....perhaps hyperlink them to the artist/DJ page here at MS. ;-)

great point. yeah, some dj's do a lot more for this community. maybe we should have more emphasis on the home town MS talent?

i definitely agree with your point about danny. he's put out some stellar stuff.....but his attitude is shit. 'be yourself'* (*unless you're a dick)

warren and herny for sure. chloe. shiva? i know there are many others that i'm forgetting right now....

#1461996Post 79 of 118

Re: Has RA Staged a Coup Here??

The point is this site is not a homage to the likes of JUST hernan, digweed, howells etc.

Sure, they do a lot for the community here. This is why they have their own bloody threads on the home page!

There's a lot of people on here that have musical taste beyond these guys. Picklemonkey has already explained this earlier in the thread. I agree with him and have taken this on board.

And anyway... it's just a banner. As long as they're relatively interesting for most people on here and keep the site fresh... and god forbid actually introduce some new music to some people... I think their job is done.
