I like how it gives you a notification, like facebook style lol.
And the check boxes.  

[T i f a]

Definitely a lot easier to look at, at a glance.

Hey guys just wanted to bring this to your attention.
There was a bit of an argument in the saxophone sticky in the woodwind/brasswind subforum.
I've already let them know that i'm watching them but i thought i'd let you guys know what they said so you know what has been going on.

This is how it started

Yo, I play tenor sax in beggining band. I been playing since around september, 2008 and im having problems with some notes. =[

When i try to hit high notes (and some low notes) it either squeaks or it sounds wierd. The only notes i can really play is when i dont have to use the octave key. I dont know if somethings wrong with me or my sax.

The sax is NOT mine its the schools and i use RICO reeds size 3 and my mouthpiece is size 3. Help?

ok try positioning the mouth piece differently on the neck. that has happened to me before. i had no idea what was going on, so i tried to fix it. i kept moving around the neck piece, and voila. it worked. also, the reason it might sound weird is because it might either be flat or sharp. arrange the mouth piece. ;D

..e.e...how long have you been playing? adjusting the mouthpiece does NOTHING besides change the tuning. this guy's problem was most likely his embouchure and/or his saxophone. if you want to "help" someone...make sure you actually have useful, valid information

first, did you not read the rules?
second, i already wrote how long i have been playing.
third, i really dont need your criticism.
now, i messed up on the post. i meant to say he should arrange the neck piece on the neck. happy? you dont need to answer that.

adjusting the neck wouldn't change anything but tuning either e.o...but, if you pulled it too far out the octave key wouldn't work..still...not valid information, even if you DID mean the neck

blah blah blah....and right now you are not making any sense whatsoever. i said you really dont need to lecture me Mr. KnowItAll

the fact that you don't understand just assists in your appearance of a "noob" sax player.

exactly. i practically am a noob tenor sax player. a very good one for that fact. Mrs.Fullerton has already asked me to be in Jazz Band. i am better then i 3 year saxaphone player in my same grade. i am better than a seventh grader. and i got my tenor sax in march. i started sax this year. so i really dont give a s**t about what you say. it doesnt effect me whatsoever.

first, if it didn't AFFECT(not effect) you then you wouldn't have bothered responding.

second, IF YOU'RE A NOOB DON'T TRY TO GIVE ADVICE!!! chances are you'll do MUCH, MUCH, MUCH more harm than help. for all you know, you could be ruining someone's musical career.

third, better than a 7th grader? big whoop. some of us here in this guild are playing on a college level. some of us have EXPERIENCE. USEFUL and VALID experience. and who care's if you're in the jazz band? chances are, most of the saxophonists in this guild are. i've been in the jazz band since i started the sax in the 8th grade. and before you say "haha you must suck, you only started in 8th grade" i've been playing clarinet since 6th grade, and i play both of them on a college level.

After this i replied with:

Quote:

Oh and guys please try to be polite to each other
Everyone has their own level of playing and enjoys it just the same.
We're all sax players here (cept for that flute player that posted earlier xD)
We should be here to help each other and share our experiences.

Then this happened

IF YOU PLAY THE ******** CLARINET WHY THE ******** ARE YOU IN THE SAXAPHONE SECTION?!?!?!?!?

AND I REPLIED BECAUSE I FELT LIKE IT.

I HAVE EXPERIENCE YOU d**k.

I DONT CARE IF I SPELL SOMETHING WRONG. ITS CALLED "MESSING UP".
HEARD OF IT? YEAH, ALOT OF PEOPLE DO THAT. SO SUCK IT.

i'm in the SAXOPHONE(at least have the respect to make sure you're spelling saxophone correctly) section because, although i do play clarinet, i also play saxophone. it's really not that uncommon to find someone who plays the clarinet AND the saxophone...so...wtf is you problem?(btw, don't is spelled with an apostrophe and a lot is two words, not one.) it's only called messing up if you actually know how to spell the word in the first place.

I sent both of them warnings and i'll be watching them closely  

[MHHornfreak]

Should i delete the posts?
I had to send one of them a comment instead of a PM because he turned his PM's to friends only.
Oh and because of posts like this should we turn this thread into admin only?
Maybe make another thread for them to posts the new sigs?  

[Who is Puffer Fish]

Since it's Admin chat, it probably should be admin-only. :<

...yeah I'd see if it happens again, and delete the posts in the meantime.
I'd say that if they do it again that they're out.  

[MHHornfreak]

Okay i deleted all the posts but i will keep the quotes in this thread.

...hey, does anyone else have this problem when they're accepting join requests?

I accept a bunch at a time but it only says one made it. The rest are like "Request could not be accepted, it has already been accepted or has left the queue"  

[MHHornfreak]

It just gets a bit laggy when there's a large amount in the cue that you accept  

[T i f a]

I get that too. It usually happens when there's about 5 people or so accepted at a time.

I've had that too. I think it accepts them still. Lol, I hope it accepts them!  

[Who is Puffer Fish]

I think it does, lol.

Silly server lag.  

[Terra of the Lilies]

I feel like I'm intruding for posting here... xd But I think by editing my 2009 show themes thread it might've unstickied it or something? >_> Sorry 'bout that. And the Double Reeds Section thread in Woodwinds/Brass isn't a sticky anymore, either. I don't know if that's supposed to be like that, but my guess is that it's not...

Anyway, thanks in advance. Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this? I wasn't sure if I should PM someone or something.

 

[Who is Puffer Fish]

Hm...I think it's okay. :3

I'll go check out those threads since I'm on. Or at least your themes one since I know that's a sticky.

EDIT: It's unstickied and I'm...not sure how to re-sticky it. o_o
