Since it looks like this site is off to a good start I will go ahead and play devils advocate and answer a few predetermined questions. Feel free to add your own if you don't feel I am covering enough.

Why create basically a carbon copy of G101?
Because I can call this one my own.

But you sold G101, will that happen here?
I have no intention of that, of course you can never rule it out but I don't forsee it and it's not why I started this up.

You are stealing the ideas for all the forums from G101!
Am I?

But you are still an admin over at G101.
Correct although I don't know for how much longer ;) I like to own sites and run them my own way. This site is no reflection good or bad to G101, it's just mine and not someone elses.

You are robbing members from G101!
So far it's been by invite only, no posts have been made about it and I prefer it that way for as long as we can get away with it. G101 is a thriving community and will suffer in no way from this site in either members or revenue generated, they get a ton of new members on a regular basis and are heavily listed in search engines. If I thought that we were taking from them in any way I wouldn't have started this site.

All i can say is the creator has created again :woot: and thanks for the new forum :boobies: <<< i love this one too lol

I would just like to take this time out to reply to these questions as Eric actually intended them answered.HAHAHAHA You knwo I love ya man. :thumb: Good to see ya back in the webmaster chair

And because I can god damn it. It's a free cyber space, I can do what I want.

Possibly, for the highest bidder or best sexual offer

Is it really stealing when I created it that site first?

Yes this is true, nothing like being your own competition

I am not robbing members, I am mind warping them all to start my own clan. Instead of the Nikes and Heaven's Gate gimick, I am going with the Yellow Partridge Family Bus will pick us all up and Elvis will be the bus driver, see Elvis is not dead, he's driving the Partridge Family bus with Hendrix riding shotgun and they're only picking up the believers.

Haha, well said Dlynn!

:yourock: This looks like a good new start to me!
I love new boards.
Niels

Can't see how it can be classed as robbing members when we all still post on G101 lol:toothless:
Anyway i was pleased that Linda referred me over to here, looks like it could be a decent all round forum:thumb: :thumb:

this will be the new guitars101 imo
and no one is stealing bc you made the other site too .
all members that are here now decided to join the "old" (lol) bossman on his new site and thats it

and besides all that i think guitarblast is a much cooler name :rock: :toothless:

Im glad you made this site Eric :) Good to be here.

LOL E! How could you steal ideas that were yours to begin with.
I for one am glad to have you in the drivers seat! :yourock:

Haha!, as far as I´m concerned there shouldn´t be any reason for this post as you started both sites, but doing it rises even further higher the class you have as a nice cool unprententious type. I hope to have as much fun or even more here as I have on 101, although not much a good communicator through the keyboard here, I love to interact-give whatever I can, weekends get to be a lot more amusing dealing with a bunch of nice grounded, cool, normal people like ya´all are HERE ON THIS SITE! :rock: . (Now I´ll look for some kleenex to wipe out my brown nose, :p )

I am sorta pissed you didn't invite me..........focker :)

LOL Sorry man, actually I can count the amount of people I've personally invited on one hand because I didn't want to bug everyone over there. Once a couple of regluars came around they spread the word all over the place.

I actually think you told me over myspace or something.......but it was forgotten by me lol.....but I still have to blame everything on you....that is how our loving relationship goes ha ha

LOL. Thanks dear. Always a pleasure exchanging banter with you. lol :yourock: ;) LOL

good stuff eric. g101 had me worn down sorry to say!!

thats why i didn't go there to much...

Well, G101 is still doing very well and I don't want to make it appear that I don't like it anymore. The only difference is that this one's mine and the other one is Lee's and both are happy to offer the same benfits to everyone. :)

I think this site is looking awesome so far ! ,

I've had a look around and it looks really promising , I like some of the nifty features like with the PM's and the quote button ,

very cool and i look forward to a long stay !

Tell us what you really think.......

Hey Eric.

Is there any way to change the board skin? Or are we stuck with white?

BTW - Nice to see you running your own place again.

I think it looks ok this colour.. easy on your eyes and refreshing :thumb:

Thats true.

But I think the Avatars look better with a dark skin. But thats just me.

Thanks and welcome, PJ. On this site we are going to stick with a light theme, I would give more options but for every theme I install I have to make massive edits to them so I always stick to one. After a while it's easy to get used to though. :)

Thats cool - I can dig it. It's a different look is all. No problem!

Wow, and here we are...a new site.

Hi and welcome sinners swing :wavey: :woot:

Thanks, I just found this site. Kind of like a parallel universe of G101.

Good, because it took awhile to get my avatar background to blend in with your light gray. :D

Yeah, I've been meaning to change that to a slightly different shade. ;)
