chriswareham Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I assume you mean the one started by "Bronner". Surprised the mods haven't deleted it or at least locked it, as it seems like an obvious troll to me. I've criticised the attitude of Hall and his acolytes, as well as stated how disappointed I've been by the Ricks that I've played, but they are a unique looking and sounding bass (the reason I've tried a few is that I love the sound and look, but ended up with a couple of fakers that suited me better).

alittlebitrobot Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 How about some alternative threads: TV programmes I've started to watch but turned off (and why you're an idiot for watching all of it) Periods of history that aren't as interesting as people think. Over-rated holiday destinations that pale in comparison to other places I could mention. Why I ordered the salmon and not the risotto the other night. Quote

"That's a logical fallacy!" "Well... That's a straw man argument!" "How dare you?! That's an ad hominem!!" And so on... Quote

Without your brain-dead nastiness, we'd never have had this piece of genius. Quote
ras52 Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I see that a factory in India has started making copies... watch out for their Rickenfakirs. Quote

DorsetBlue Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I was going to post to say I tried a Rick bass last week and kind of liked it (not enough to mortgage the children to buy it however). Perhaps not. Quote
