Wasn`t HCFX a kind of role-model for this E-H forum?
and would this E-H forum have happened without HCFX?
Lots of spillover, for sure. I love HCFX at times, but most of the time it’s filled with annoying blather. I appreciate this forum’s tendency to stay on topic and focus deeper on a question.
It’s not amazing in itself…. it’s a bit like pubs, it’s all about the people you are with. I wouldn’t know Fender&ehx4ever;, Kev Demuth, Andy Heartfeltdawn and a number of other people who I’ve considered my friends for a long time now.
exactly. :thumb:
i’ve been a member of a few music-related forums over the years, and HCFX is the only one where i feel like i know (some of) the people and could even – like the legendary melx says – consider them as friends.
sure, some of the content is irritating but the forum moves fast enough (when it’s online) that you can just ignore the things you have no interest in.
this forum feels more like home….HCFX drives me to random Rick Rolling because of some of the off topic stuff….just lost my mind and got banned…and the crash happened…weird timing!
sometimes i’d love to sign up for some other forum than this one – i sometimes miss talking about every brand i want…
but then i realize that i don’t need a pile of snobs talking about how the most expensive things are the best ones… i’m not against boutique stuff, i’m just against some of its users
one of the best equipped and most helpful guys here plays a squier jagmaster… who needs those hand made guitars… and who needs to talk about Dumbles… we are cool

I think you might be describing The Gear Page….HCFX are a bunch of clowns…who happen to know a bunch of stuff about gear! It really is a FUN place! But for the serious EHX junkie, like me, this is the place!
yeah, i know… TGP is a big snobhole although i need to make a confession – i spent a lot of time browsing through those “show your pedalboard” topics… i’m a fun of those topics
anyway… i might check the HCFX more deeply someday
