I think anyone who offers any drumming advice online ought to have some videos of themselves playing , otherwise how am I to know whether or not to listen to you ??

Plenty of people can play well but can't teach for s**t. Add writing to the equation and it gets worse.

Drumming advice also means suggestions for gear choices etc ………

I believe in private teaching ..
 
Looks like another wrinkle

Hope they get things worked out

Hi guy.
I was a little disappointed reading on another forum that you seem to be giving your beloved Downbeat a little bit of the cold shoulder,
now that you've found a pretty new face.

(only half kidding).

That's probably why we haven't seen any videos from people that post the same photos over and over of their obnoxious drum collection and lifestyle.

If you're talking about who I think you're talking about, there were videos. Two of them. From a long time ago. And no, they weren't very good.

Not sure if Bermuda realizes ads are based on the cookies on your computer. If it's showing you sexy ads it's because you've been lookin up horny stuff lol

My ads on this page right now are for sneakers, hot dogs, VBRO vacation rentals, and Linked In

To add insult to injury, the last time I tried to log in there, it couldn't even decide if I was a real person.

I got banned there a long time ago. I should try my best to get bannd there again too.
Good thing I never become a fanboy of these sites and stupidly give money to them so they can tell me what I cannot say. F' em

Some more thoughts:

i) The management may have significantly reduced the capability of the hosting VM to cut down on costs. The server is getting overworked and doesn't have the capacity to serve all of the requests. Hence the 'Oops' message.
ii) Cloudflare anti-DDoS has been put in to screen traffic as the traffic levels to the site are too high for it to handle (especially if they have reduced the capability of the VM).
iii) There may be a cyber security incident in progress and high levels of traffic is as a result of that.

It keeps showing me ads for some new Disney movie, over at DW, and I can say with certainty that there is NOT a history of me looking up anything Disney-related on my phone.
 
Well DW had a big change in moderation in recent times-all past moderators great. Suddenly removal of my post or threads and threaten to ban me-the same happened to many during the ban fest which took out many. Then finally make my use of site near impossible this last year. I believe sabotage because I tried it creating a new name and it worked fine-but that was removed because against the rules-just keeps saying it's on my end which it isn't and no help to address. I left my mighty bot behind to raise havoc. Ha, ha, ha my sinister plan is working as the site implodes from over moderating and needs to learn to subtract rather than just ad.
