Someone asked if Bass was easy to play, and I responded with this.

"If you wanna play punk (like bowling for soup and the like), sure."

Someone else responded to me with something like "I'm not even gonna bother"

I replied with "If you think playing 3 chord punk songs is hard, then you are mislead. If you wanna be a true musician like Victor Wooten and the like, then Bass is NOT easy".

Banned for that? I sense a group of Nazi mods over there.

I haven't been banned yet but in a forum I started on who's the best drummer alive (my vote being Peart) somebody came and said that Neil Peart can't keep a 4/4 rock beat, this caused me and another Rush fan to get into it wiht this guy and I ended up challenging him to a rock-off after he claimed The Trees meant nothing, anyways after I challenged him somebody reported the thread and it was locked before hardly anyone got to vote for their pick.

Thing is... I agree with the guys statement that "Genres don't have difficulties attatched to them" on that forum (went and found the topic you were on about). The bass player in my punk band doesn't play just the root notes of the chords. Just because it's punk doesn't mean it's easy to play. Plus, there's so many sub genres and off shoots of punk.

However, I don't think you should have been banned for that.

Haha, they have upgraded my ban to a permaban.

that is where it is located I believe...
I heard there was once so much noise being made from there, that It coated the streets of a city miles away. People mistake this for music, and some people were trying to catch it in their ears.

People call me disturbed for laughing when someone put a knife to my throat, yet you take the piss out of the most evil thing ever?

I laugh..seriously, I don't mean anything there -.- but yeah I did do that knife thing...

I demand to know who the UG Admin amongst us is! Then ve vill go LYNCHING!! *laughs manically*

Agree with you there Doz, I just started out on bass, it is not at all easy, specially with no help at all with getting the basic of bass, put hey I'm coming up with Rage Against The Machine style lines, shame they don't fit with my bands songs, well the ones were finishing off anyway.

Haha, sometimes my bassist comes up with funky basslines and we try it out in our punk songs anyway. Usually we go for a some solid harmonies, little runs and arpeggios though.

Same. It's sometimes hard to get a new thread seen to though.

I've not been over there yet, sounds like there is to much negativity for it to be really helpful.
