What colour are the magic beans and how limited? Are the heirloom? Come on you have to know this stuff or I am not going to buy them!! Damn just take my money now!!
This financial recklessness is so worrying.If you want to make a sensible investment I have some magic beans left over. I traded most of them to @Mather as he made his way to market for his cow, Daisy, but these leftover stock are strictly limited edition.

Fair enough but I think you need to revisit They Want My Soul because that album is a companion piece to their masterwork Ga Ga Ga Ga GaAlright I’ll do them allll

Series of Sneaks
Telefono/Soft Effects
They Want My Soul
I think Transference is the one people need to revisit. It’s absolutely amazing and imo their sleeper masterpiece. I love the demo like style to it. Some songs seem like sketches
They are ‘Heinz Baked Orange’ colour. Strictly limited to 7500. The first 3000 come with a limited edition metallic style tin opener.
Please note colour, magic powers and wether or not they actually are beans may differ from description.
I agree with you about the hyperbole being different and unwarranted, but most people on here aren't doing that. There's a lot more whining and negative comments (myself especially) regarding VMP as well.No by could/would dynamics doesn’t really mean anything. 4 threads or 400 is the same to me. People use them. I’m using them. And when we don’t they will drop off as you said.
What I don’t get is the perception that a store, a commercial capitalist venture, is so different from HMV or Sound Of Vinyl. If I were to go on here and hyperbole every limited pressing they had it would sound ridiculous. VMP however we still look back as that start upwho would send us the wrong record (or 10) and not ask for it returned, or who would give us a full refund for damage then forget they did so and send us a replacement. So we felt they were our chums. That’s why people feel stung now.
I guess I just don't see what that has to do with multiple threads. If N&G ever has 3 ROTM guess threads going, I would advocate for them to be separate for the same reason, even though they probably wouldn't be as busy as any of the VMP threads have in the past.
I wasn't comparing them in that way at all though. I was specifically comparing the fact that people who are interested in a particular aspect that they want to discuss, or a particular track, don't want to be overwhelmed with hundreds of posts about a different topic or track, so it makes functional sense to separate them. I don't understand how that is preferential treatment, unless mods are shutting down similar splits for other stores. If they are doing that I think that is a bad thing.I don’t feel that’s a fair comparison. It’s actually really disingenuous.
One is giving one particular store, one that’s burnt people on here in particular preferential treatment over all other stores. No publicity is bad publicity and it gives all their releases a huge public airing that no one else is.
As you well know the other isn't a store, it’s in effect a self run “book club” style monthly recommendations thread by a different member from the forum. There’s no self interest, beyond the kudos of a good pick, or monetary benefit, it’s actually the very nexus of a positive community centric idea. Also as the person managing it for now I am dead against any thoughts of more than one a month.

EVERYONE STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY GODDAMN MAGIC BEANSMay I add Super Bacon and swap Potatoes of Wisdom for a Rainbow Egg?
You better not be a flipper? Are you Vinceron? Just sell me the damn beans!!EVERYONE STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY GODDAMN MAGIC BEANS

I don't know what you think my motives are, but I meant precisely what I said. The very valid comparison was predicated on clues and guess threads. It would be obnoxious and confusing to have three different sets of clues to keep straight, nevermind all of the different aspects discussed in this thread. That is my only point. I agree it can't be compared in other ways and that wasn't my intent.Yes but by putting them in the same post you are inviting comparison and you know you are. They are absolutely not comparable in any way. Other stores don’t have posts at all. Their releases go in the pre-order thread. Other clubs do but just one for the club not one for every stream that they offer. VMP gets a gross amount of free publicity on here.
I’ll just wait for the ones that China will send me for free, without even asking.I’m not selling beans, I’m offering an, errrrrrr, totally legitimate investment opportunity...
That's the travelling salesman who sold me the beans in the FIRST place! Have you seen him? I'm missing a bunch of stuff, and I think he stole my watch.You better not be a flipper? Are you Vinceron? Just sell me the damn beans!!

Liberated your watch. The word you we’re looking for was liberated.
Kindly refrain from anthropomorphizing my watch into something that doesn't like me.It just wasn’t happy in servitude, it needed the freedom to sit on a wrist of its choosing...
