Unfortunately, I don't really have time for it.

It's possible to build a decent musical community, but it takes time. I can submit stuff, but I can't take the time to relearn CSS (I last used it around v. 1.0, I don't even know what version it currently is).

So, the first thing we probably need is some CSS help.

Someone who really likes music, specifically the guitar, could volunteer some time and make us some sexy CSS. We're not picky. No, we're not... We'll play music with anyone. We'll take CSS from most anyone - though it should make some sort of sense.

My design skills are, to be mild, imperfect. I'm also partially colorblind. You really, really don't want me to do this.

Are you planning on growing three guitar communities at once? I know you're on poal and now here at phuks. Just as your post stated it's hard to grow a community but probably even harder if your attempting to do so on multiple platforms. Just curious if your dropping anchor here and hosting all your guitar nights here or on all three sites?

Fucked if I know.

I do know the weekly guitar thread is not being moved - or there's no plans to move it at this time.

I put the stuff on Poal 'cause I like PMYB2 and wanted to give him some content. I started posting on Phuks 'cause i was invited a few times and then got asked if I'd post the guitar stuff here.

The problem is, I don't have time. I can answer questions and link pretty quickly, but I sure as hell can't devote myself to making a community. I can devote some time, to helping YOU make a community - and give you some content to run with.

Err... Sorry if that's not the answer you wanted. It's all I've got.

I don't have a desire to grow a music sub I was just curious about your post and it's intent.

Damn it... ;-)

I'll help! I will, too.

Here's a way that I think describes my intent.

I never post anything that I'm unwilling to return to, read comments about, and reply to each of the responses.

My ulterior motive is taking over Phuks so that I can get you to all do work on my behalf and mobilize you to become my army when I'm elected Supreme Emperor of the Universe and Everything Beyond.

Or, my motive is exactly what you see. You're a cliquish bunch, but that's okay - I fit in most everywhere. I ain't scared. You'll get used to me. ;-)

I pass the sniff test. I'm really who I say I am and kind of have to be. I'm pretty trivial to dox. I guess that's bad form, but people do it all the time. I speak to people via email, text, and even phone. I've had people from Voat visit my house.

Politically, if you use the new mostly-standard Political Compass (with the cardinal directions as points), then I'm squarely in the lower left. I think the left is largely fucking retarded. To be fair, the right is too. It's not so much that they're retarded, but they're easily excited. Extremism is pretty silly. So, I've decided to be a zealot in the name of rational and moderate thought, preferring pragmatism. That kind pretty much puts me in the Libertarian Socialist camp.

There...

Also, I smoke a lot of pot and write novellas.

I have a few free hours and I'll throw them at Phuks so long as there's people who are having happy moments with what I do. I don't want to control anything - except to make you all my minions and help me take over the universe. (The same thing we're going to do tomorrow night, Pinky!)

You've got maybe two hours of my time today. You can use it any way you want. If you've ever thought about playing music, I can probably tell you a little about the experience. I know a bit of math and some science, but I don't really have much time for that on this site. So, I avoid those subs entirely. I did look at the math sub, but it didn't seem like I'd be spending my time wisely.

At my age, time's important. I spend it having the best day ever. That means I gotta budget it.

Make sense?
