OK, youāre absolutely sure Iām not.
P.S. Ask me if I care.
Did I say you were not?
Do you care?

I joined the old forum in 2004 and Iām still here, though I donāt hang out here as much as I did beforeā¦
Mark R. Hodge! 
āI donāt sing in falsetto voice!!!ā 
I was also a lot more active on the old forum, mainly because C4 was such a disaster. As a result I ended up getting involved in a lot more discussions with trolls who seemed more interested in raising their post count than creating music, or perhaps they were just lonely. In any case, as the stability of Cubase improved, I found I was enjoying making music with it so much I no longer felt like wasting any more time on the forum. This generation of the forum is a lot more civilized, but the Cubase section still needs to be handled with rubber gloves a lot of the time.
I think I joined about 2003. Canāt remember my old handle though. I must admit, this forum used to get pretty spicy back then. 
and what/who is āBrainsā mentioned here and there in the forum ? i have always wondered !!
I still know and am in contact with Paul on his own forum, though he may have lost interest in music, heās gained quite a bit of interest in world politics, and particularly interested in sympathizing with murderous sandal wearing, towel head wearing, bomb hurdling, anti-US, anti-UK terrorists, and generally any entity that is anti-west, whoās primary aim is to murder the Infidels! Aint that right Paul?
Thatās him! lol He actually invited me to come and see him sing āliveā at a Karaoke bar 
I was considering it, as I came to Petaluma to go camping once in a while. I still think he was playing a wild joke on all of us
Yes, the good Olā days were much more spicy indeed. The Steinberg forums have become very sterile. Tru that it got out of hand though. And some members, in relation to other members, were really just begging for more of what they were trying to police others for sayingā¦ those types (and you know who you are) got it 10 fold!
Iāve been here a long time, although not nearly as active as many others. Probably late 90ās onward, since I got my first Cubase in '98 or '99. I agree, there were an enormous number of interesting and crazy posts, as well as some fabulous music. I remember Hippo (guy was enormously knowledgeable), Paul Woodlock (another very knowledgeable guy, although I guess he had a few run-ins), Nerg (wonderful drummer with a lot of good music posts), Uncle Grusom was very active then (still is here now and then; some of the best musical posts of all time), Lenny Lee (here rarely now, but one of the best musicians we had), Jet (left us not so long ago to tend to his wife - many incredible albums posted here), Neil (the guy with the finger injury - lots of good playing, advice all the time that helped me, reincarnated multiple times, may still be here using some name I donāt recognize, but thanks Neil), Maury is here forever (but I canāt remember hearing any of his stuff), Steve (Plectrumboy - I can remember only one music post which revealed that he could play up a storm), HowlingUlf, Sherz, Jeff Hayat, Fooloman, ZapAxe (what happened?), Prism, Twilightsong, Woodcrest, JL, Kenny, anyway, lots of influences, plus invaluable advice, and I know I donāt remember everyone. Oh Phil D. He was always the first guy to comment on a new piece, and he was here for a while on the new forum, but disappeared. And John Reid was extremely helpful in the beginning.
Does anybody remember Ghost? Lots of entertainment there.
I donāt mean to mention everyone who ever helped me. So many people. Another guy I want to know what happened toā¦ BlueBob. Many more contributors I could mention.
I remember a lot of those you mentioned now- thanks!
I think this is the right Mike- if so a great article and statement about the many great musicians who have posted and some that continue to post here. Similar things are probably posted on the old forum- so newer members can appreciate this
If I canāt remember the year I first came to cubase.net, does that mean I was there in the good Ol daze?
This is what the forum needs I think lmao- but some parts might be more than ambiguously gay lol- has anyone posted this yet? Is this guy on here? you gotta watch starting at about 12 seconds into it
No, it means youāre over 50ā¦
(Not making fun of older dudesā¦itās just reality. Iām one and I forget things all the time. Waitā¦what was I talking about? )
Yeah, I saw this before. Great fun!
He still exists. 
But according to the statistics more active in the C6 forum.
I donāt think he cares much for C7, at least based on a lot of his comments. I donāt blame him either.
Aloha guys.
While pondering the title of this thread I came to realized that there is probably a
14 year old kid somewhere on this planet using Cubase that was not even alive in 2000.
And is most likely is very good at āCubasingā.
Whoa!! Talk about; āthangs that make ya goā¦huhā.
This from some episode of āStar Warsā:
āYou donāt want to sell me deathsticksāā¦āI donāt want to sell you deathsticksā
āYou want to go home and rethink your lifeāā¦āI want to go home and rethink my lifeā.
The ārethinking my lifeā part is precisely what I am doing these days
and this thread is a gentle reminder.
{ā-ā}
ā¦ whose parents may have even met here.
More likely at āCubasisingāā¦
