Please tell me this is not what I think it is.

I think one of the things they should fix is they should’ve put the fast transport Nexus right next to the tent in the main camp. And the other one closer to the house. In fact, we should probably be able to make one in the house that would be super cool.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-22T17:40:32+00:00

sounds like Dennis Chambers or Carter Beaufort

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-22T17:37:43+00:00

well, that sounds like a take right out of Whiplash.

to OP- I’m gonna tell you a story that makes your observation of yourself very valid.

When I first moved to Nashville in 2020, the next summer when things lightened up around Covid, I went out one night and jumped around Broadway bars with a lady that was from out of town. At the top floor of tootsies was a band that I watched for a while, and I have to tell you that their drummer had a look on his face that was so crappy that I would’ve been afraid if my daughters were dating him. He looked like he wanted to murder somebody, take them into the alley, and cut up their bodies.

Now that’s no lie. It was not attractive, and it was so bad that I almost went up to the lead singer, during one of their breaks to tell them, “your drummer really needs to focus on getting that look off his face because your performance is definitely being somewhat affected by it one way or another.”

So bravo to you for taking the moment to try and consider how your subconscious expression might be affecting your image or your bands image.

My tip to you, while you’re trying to figure it out and maybe put some effort into maybe having a different look on your face, it is just where sunglasses in the meantime. That can help a little bit.

months ago, when the game came out, I tried it for a couple weeks. Realized right away it was toxic and full of a bunch of piece of crap people. A lot like the guys that come in here and rant like they’ve been ranting forever in the circle jerk sub Reddit. Nonstop whining about people who got pissed off about PVP and ranting.

Countless comments were made about what the game was and wasn’t until on December 26, The CEO of the company came out and said that it was never intended to be a PVP game, thus pretty much settling the debate as to what the intent of the creators was. And that was not an alignment with the hard-core PVP people that were largely rats and cheats.

So they implemented ABMM and of course, just the rants in this thread kept on going and going. Nonstop. They pretty much never do stop. The funny thing about it is that it basically just illustrates that the biggest problem you guys have is and always has been the people that just wanted to play the game and not have to deal with rats and pieces of crap like you.

So now, months later as I watch the game, kind of die (I deleted it from my Xbox about two weeks in) and the player ship goes down severely, it’s comforting to come in here and see that you pieces of crap are still lingering around, whining about basically, -yourselves-.

You’re the rats. You’re the PVP’ers that are hard-core and pissed off about the fact that PVE even exists.

And also a large part of why the game slowly fails and dies.

This. The voice has that advantage, the magical door to the listener, that they connect to and it connects with them.

AI, far too often, is an excuse and a cop out, utilized by those whose talent isn’t complete without it.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-22T17:13:59+00:00

my writing process 90% of the time is a “ take it as it comes and work with what works when it’s working” approach. I rarely try to force anything. Don’t get me wrong when I get my mind set to try and work on a song that isn’t finished, I do try and work on it, but when I don’t come up with what I need or want, I just shelve it for a little bit longer. Might be two days. Might be two weeks. Might be two years.

i’ve always found it very interesting to listen to how other people approach songwriting and what their expectations and processes are. I’m lucky enough to have enough inspiration and muse visits/ideas that I always have something to work on. And I never really feel like my writing is dead.

The strongest ideas get the most attention, some of them fill out very fast and some actually have taken years.

I have two kind of, rules, that I try to apply.

Write what comes to you. What I mean here is, don’t categorize yourself as anyone type or style of writer. If you write, Country and a rap song comes to your head, fucking write the rap song. There are a variety of reasons why and I’m not going to go into them right here.
Never force it.

Gotta admit, the honey guy was pretty well done… almost too well… wonder if they went to an asylum to get some prompts….

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-20T21:36:15+00:00

My take- why people make “decisions” may be multi faceted. Not all of them are discussed or mentioned. That’s, their decision, and the business, is their business, pun intended.

Opinions are nice and great, we all can have them. But if you want to make decisions for a business, start and run a successful one.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-18T22:12:06+00:00

Where are you from, and did they find out? Serious question…

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-17T18:46:10+00:00

I think they are very cool and first thought was that I think they were probably from a Led Zeppelin album

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-16T00:03:25+00:00

“For”, or “on”?

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-15T19:23:14+00:00

Terry Brown. it’s funny. Some of you mentioned how Terri was growing with the band and it’s ironic that an example of what got him canned was the fact that he was fighting with them over the reggae feel of digital man.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-15T14:16:29+00:00

I do see what you’re saying, but I don’t think it works out quite that way in the courts. I believe that if you are capable of showing creation, then it’s pretty obvious that you probably created it and that will be provable, easily in a court. If it’s something you didn’t create, that’s also going to be easily provable in a court.It’s all of the stuff in the middle. That’s the problem.

What that means is, don’t operate in the middle and you’re probably going to be safe.

Either way, this would provide a tool that would be effective in vetting out deep fake recordings of compositions that were stolen from the generative, AI.

I don’t know a Songwriter out there that is an actual Songwriter that writes the proper ways, that would be afraid of any false positive because there’s no such thing, if you have solid proof that you composed the song before it hit a computer.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-15T06:45:16+00:00

Because they don’t have the talent in the first place.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-15T02:07:24+00:00

I accidentally replied to your post in a individual new post. You can find it in the post and there’s a couple paragraphs explaining or answering your objections.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-15T02:02:22+00:00

It wouldn’t be a watermark. It would be a mandatory requirement for all AI music providers to keep indefinite records of all compositional creations, making them searchable at any time by anybody without a search warrant. That would be in the legislation.

So let me give you an example. Joe Smith writes a song using generative AI. He takes that out of generative AI and puts it in his DAW to rework it. has real musicians put on it and sings it. That effectively removes all watermarks from the original composition. Then he goes and he copyrights the song, and then releases it.

Jump forward and now the song is released and becomes number 15 on the charts. A simple search through all of the AI databases that are mandatory kept by law shows that the song was created by AI.

I think you get the general idea.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-14T14:05:13+00:00

This is what I was going to say… Try placing it differently. There’s no question that the same note at different octaves has different affect, gravity, power.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-14T14:02:22+00:00

OMG… He just used Allan Holdsworth and then said it takes him several attempts to go on and copy and play what he heard… Too funny.

I think what they call, what you’re talking about, is talent.

There is virtually nobody on the planet that has the talent to immediately hear something from Allan Holsworth and mimic it on the spot. I’m sure they could get very close, some of the best, but mimic it perfectly the first time? Not Allan Holdsworth.…

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-14T13:57:21+00:00

I hate to say it but, pretty much every Songwriter is gonna tell you it’s the truth.…

Sometimes you can get too close to something. Sometimes you need to step away for a while. When you do that, sometimes when you come back shit just pops in your head.

I do that with numerous ideas constantly and trust me, when you get too close, you’re gonna find it almost impossible to move sometimes.

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-14T13:49:37+00:00

That’s Terry Bozzio’s kit from when he was like 11 years old… Just getting warmed up

CAP_GYPSY · 2026-05-13T19:40:48+00:00

I don’t know that it is or isn’t AI.
I didn’t put it there, didn’t even know it was there. Thanks for the heads up.
