pedant

agree, good luck 👍

delete/rename aud.ini? i think amberwolf already suggested

how all apocalypses start https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy4gd8xx93yo

other audio devices should already be offered in prefs

yep, altho they've always relied on user made tutorials, never made any official ones 🤷‍♀️

is that the hdmi audio via your video card?

what specs? windows version, audio driver etc, platinum's pretty old by now

that was a screenshot not a quote 🙄

ffs eta, any company people running a user environment has multiple accounts for exactly this reason, as a mod you don;t see the same stuff as a regular user, so you have a "test" account where you can see what a regular user sees, it's not rocket science

i didn't quote the spam for exactly that reason, i shared screenshots to help you out, as you clearly hadn't noticed the actual spam /sorryfortryingtohelp

you're a mod

anything logged in windows event viewer?

have 2 accounts, your admin/mod one, plus a regular user one (simples)

is the forum software up to date? why not use the "recapcha" funtionality to avoid spam https://invisioncommunity.com/search/?&q=avoid spam&quick=1&search_and_or=or&sortby=relevancy

eta, are you just hiding them and not deleting them?

i understood there was some gui thing that made them non-standard vsts (simples)

he's a cat?

ok maybe "hacked" means something different to some people, but it was officially declared some time ago in these very forums, more than just a host check

it's not though, it's embedded in the app? or it has a "host check" if it has been developed as a plugin, or it's a hacked plugin format like the prochannel fx

Sure! Here's a song based on "What a Good Day for the Roses" but with the lyrics reimagined as "What a Shame About the Forum": --- **What a Shame About the Forum** *(To the tune of "What a Good Day for the Roses")* *(Verse 1)* It’s a shame about the forum, How the threads have gone awry. Once a place for lively discussion, Now it's just a place to sigh. Oh, the posts have lost their meaning, And the debates are getting cold. What a shame about the forum, Where the stories used to unfold. *(Chorus)* What a shame about the forum, Where we used to share our views, Now it’s filled with trolls and shouting, And the threads are all confused. We used to have some laughter, Now we’re drowning in the noise, Oh, what a shame about the forum, That was once our favorite voice. *(Verse 2)* It’s a shame about the forum, Once a home for all our dreams, Now it's cluttered with complaints, And no one’s talking in between. Remember when the posts were clever, And we’d learn a thing or two? Now we’re stuck in endless circles, Chasing echoes through the queue. *(Chorus)* What a shame about the forum, Where we used to share our views, Now it’s filled with trolls and shouting, And the threads are all confused. We used to have some laughter, Now we’re drowning in the noise, Oh, what a shame about the forum, That was once our favorite voice. *(Bridge)* Maybe one day we’ll find our way back, To a space where words have meaning, But for now, the silence echoes, And the signal’s slowly fading. *(Chorus)* What a shame about the forum, Where we used to share our views, Now it’s filled with trolls and shouting, And the threads are all confused. We used to have some laughter, Now we’re drowning in the noise, Oh, what a shame about the forum, That was once our favorite voice. *(Outro)* It’s a shame about the forum, And what it used to be... Maybe one day, we’ll remember, The way it used to be... --- Hope that captures the nostalgic vibe for you! It’s got that feeling of lamenting what’s been lost, but still holding on to the memory of better days.

@Jonathan Sasor @Noel Borthwick @Meng sort it out, you're happy to delete critical posts but can't maintain a spam-free forum, shame on you

as they seem to be focussing on their own proprietary cakewalk-bandlab-cross-app format/workflow at the moment, my guess is low, but i would be happy to be proved wrong

Nothing to see here
