Here I am, prestigious now. Here are some well-deserved comments about posters who i've talked with, befriended, or read their posts:

El Jeffe - You are by far the poster i respect the most. Kind to everyone, and you have amazing, amazing reccomendations for users. I unflinchingly trust anything you would suggest in terms of music. Keep on at it. I owe a lot of great music that i listen to, to you.

Troggy - You are too cool. AP's pokemon master #1 for sure. One of the coolest and most knowledgable guys i know haha. And you like good music too. That's always a plus. We're going to have a lot of fun on our path to Take This To Your Graveler.

allhourcymbals - You haven't been around in a while, i don't even know if you are still on, but i really enjoy your posts and your comments on music. You too have swung me some great artists that i still listen to.

theguy77 - We probably would be perfect bandmates. In the future hopefully we'll tour together or something. Keep making music and doing cool stuff. Like pokemon haha. I admire your courage to defend the bands you listen to, i wish more people did that.

CharlieKilo - I would absolutely trust any reccommendation you give. Go Joey Cape, he is the man! Thanks for helping me get into Bad Astronaut among other bands.

TheOtherAndrew - I think i had my first "real" conversation with you. You also are super funny. Keep it real. I think you are cruising around here occasionally with a bull dog avatar or something.

Get Up and Dance - I credit you with getting me into Notorious B.I.G's Ready to Die. I love that album. Keep upping the Hip-Hop around here along with Jumpoff.

Lunchforthesky - You get a ton of crap around here by some posters, but i like you. You've done a really tremendously awesome thing with sunonthesand.net. Keep it up with the music. Not to mention i totally am indebted for your Neutral Milk Hotel reccommendation a long, long time ago.

Iwasacamera - We have random good conversations sometimes, don't know if you remember most of them. You've helped me get into fantastic artists such as Iron & Wine, The National, Bon Iver and Nick Drake. I appreciate your honest with music and your straightforwardness in critiquing it. I really enjoy reading your posts.

funkel - I've had a few good conversations with you too. You've helped me out with Post-Rock more recently whether you realize it or not. You have great posts too, keep it up.

togepi - You have good posts, and show opposing sides to artists that people are too stubborn to recognize. I don't care how brutal you are, sometimes it's needed to get points across. I love reading your posts.

Summer Skin & AbosluteCrunk - two funniest posters on here.

Ap_Punk - You are the next funniest poster. And you have a good taste in music, and i like you.

Renee - I've talked with you a bunch in the Chat threads. You're cool. Plus you like the Format, which makes you awesome.

nonamesleft - Haha we've had some funny conversations, most recently about my vest haha.

A fatal Goodbye - You've helped my recent flare for Pink Floyd progress, don't stop.

Davezerozero - You've been getting flack lately, but i like you. Keep posting

MADSTA - You catch me when i spell Elliott Smith wrong, and probably have helped me get into him, which is awesome, because he's got some great and solid tunes/albums. Thanks.

Sanepsychotic - Anal Scene. You are cool.

Versus_God - i like your posts.

Yes. And? - i like you too. You like My Chemical Romance and don't care what people think about that.

Osto - You gave me some sweet reccommendations also, most notably Okkervil River

Untilitkillsyou - I haven't seen you on an ages, but we had great discussion about basses, which i really enjoyed. I hope you are enjoying yours.

Micahistheballs - You are a cool guy, and have good input. I attribute my liking for Godspeed mostly to you.

Dr. Acula - You have good posts, i like reading them.

ThisIsNotDan - We agree on lots of bands, you've got a cool music taste. Gatsbys totally owns.

Kid B - You among other posters help suggest Radiohead and help me like Radiohead. Excellent band, i'm glad i got into them from good posters like you.

Machu505 - You got me into Cursive, i really owe you for that one. Big time.

Bowl of Oranges - I remember when i first joined you seemed to be in a lot of threads that i was in, and i always liked what you said, i haven't seen you too recently. Great username.

Jumpoff - It's refreshing to see stuff about Hip-Hop. And you like Arrested Development too, which is rad. My Buster Avater will come back.

ThemChains - You're pretty nice and definitely open to helping someone with a digital copy of a CD. I'm sure you've given me several albums before.

As for the rest, i either forgot you, since there were a lot of people i wanted to say something about, or you haven't talked to me, or your musical taste isn't good, or you haven't reccommended anything good to me.

Now i'd like to pass on a few albums that i have been reccomended by users from this site, and i would exhort you to listen to some of these:

Radiohead - Kid A, OK Computer
The National - Boxer
Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water

good on ya mate. definitely a poster i've genuinely enjoyed getting to know over the past months, for many reasons. top bloke, with a friendly manner, but what i really enjoyed also was your keenness to discover new music regardless of all those age, genre, popular opinion, etc, barriers. i still remember the first time you pm'ed me asking for ska recc's haha, & i've really enjoyed swapping up recc's, talking tunes & sharing the odd laugh over the times since then. much love & never stop searching through the ever encompassing artistic hue that is music
