In a few words, what is your "role" on Talk Classical?

I did this thread long ago, but it was forgotten and not many people replied. I want update! People have specialties on this forum. Some people really make an effort to contribute in specific ways either to the discussion or the community atmosphere. Some people really spend a lot of time in the voting processes for the various lists, others spend time in the Opera sub-forum the most, and still others do completely other things, like remember other people's birthdays!

In a few words, I am Russian music advocate, short-story blogger, janitor (I tidy up the forums sometimes with my moderator abilities). I don't chat a lot here anymore, but when I do, it's often for one of those reasons.

So that's what I do! What about you?

I want to turn people on to good music, clarify things, and get turned on to good music. I like the simulated camaraderie as well, such as star thrower, bettina, powders, all the other characters. I'd also like to thank the academy.

Welcome to the club. I wonder when everyone here actually has any time to listen to music.

"Listening" to music while posting is not listening, by the way. :)

It's about as effective as "listening" while reading a program as the music is playing at a concert.

I can listen and do other things. Example: listening to Mahler symphonies while eating a Volkswagen.

Hopefully, you'll still get their Bud Light.

Thanks for mentioning me! ;) I enjoy the camaraderie too. It's fun to have online interactions with you and my other friends such as hpowders and SiegendesLicht.

That's very sweet of you to mention me in your post. I respect your intelligence, your knowledge and your quick, sparkling wit, Bettina. Tell Mom, I'll be over for dinner at the usual time.

Show me. How can you possibly concentrate on Mahler when eating a VW? Eating a VW I can dig, but NOT while listening to Mahler at the same time.

Thanks for mentioning me, millionrainbows. Glad to be considered a TC character. I've been called a lot worse, in particular by the one who shares my house.

Simulated? This is ME!! What you can't see is what you get. No scripts.
