Or... those who don’t want to discuss VMP can just stay out of those threads?

I think that's a great idea but stepping into tomorrow wasnt a adaption when I swapped earlier.

I am very much a supporter of skimming past threads I don’t want to read.
we were all going to go somewhere. I’m glad we’re here together.Again, it wasn't meant as snark, but in the grand scheme of things I can't help but feel we've given VMP exactly what they wanted. Somewhere else for everyone to complain so they don't need to deal with it. Not my vision of what we wanted out of this forum.

Agreed, but I'm sure you get my point.

My swap list is getting shorter. Down to Miles Davis, LARB, Booker, and Moses Sumney. But it’s hard to get those because a lot of the time I’ll swap for an exclusive that isn’t gonna hang around (ie. UGK Ridin Dirty for $23 uh yes please). Swapped out Rosetta Tharpe, which I just don’t like more than UGK tbh.

I do. And it’s for sure what they wanted. People have a right to complain, though. Some people were nowhere close to jumping the VMP ship when this happened so it’s all the more jarring for them compared to those who had a more circumspect view of them as a business. I agree with those who think gradually people will reduce the vmp talk as time goes on.
Thanks for the feedback on this. I was hoping to swap it but will look for something else. I wanted Bratmobile instead, but it wasn't there.

But, I still don't see the benefit in ever combining it. They're essentially different clubs just owned by one company.

he wasn't complaining or asking for CS he asked a simple question, if the inquiry had been different I could see this type of response, this seems like complete overkill for this situation
Not now there isn't, but to my point, if participation decreases significantly there won't be a need for multiple threads, as again other clubs have a few things going on but we handle it just fine

OK, cool, I will send them an email.Again, it wasn't meant as snark, but in the grand scheme of things I can't help but feel we've giving VMP exactly what they wanted. Somewhere else for everyone to complain so they don't need to deal with it. Not my vision of what we wanted out of this forum.
Honestly, it was just an innocent question. Appreciate & agree with the overall vision, but I'm a long way down the bitchiness scale of people railing against VMP.

I don't think you did anything wrong or that needed policing

I’ve seen a lot of people discouraged by the first dibs model in PIF over the past couple days. I think it’s a sound model but I basically live within this thread now. Since this is a limited edition popular release I decided it’s best to do a random hat draw. First 5 people to comment a claim will be entered!
Album Notes:
Anderson Paak - Malibu (2LP)
Newbury Comics Limited Variant (500 copies)
Small dish warp on both discs (doesn’t seem to affect play from what i can tell)
Newbury was nice enough to send me a new copy without wanting the defective one back so now I will pay it forward. Let the fun begin
Sure.. why not, I don't own any Paak records

No Paak for me either but loved him at Coachella... Count me in too. Thanks.
. I’m going to put your guys name a down and re do this thread over there!To anyone that has feedon fleece and says their copy doesn’t have surface noise throughout- I don’t believe you. 
I have 3 copies with the same issue and others have claimed the same. It’s a tad frustrating because the music is so good.

my guess is SC is pulling from the same box for your replacements and that box contains the ones with the issue (i.e. the same stamper that was probably worn out)
