I still can't figure out why they got rid of it. It was hugely popular - as I remember it got about equal the amount of discussion as the main recording forum. The demise of the coffeehouse probably has something to do with money or lawyers or both. Doesn't it always?

Nope, I don't miss it, but that was the best way to get over 500 posts to go Silver in one day.


there's another post here that serves that same purpose...
i believe it was called "post anything even if u don't hav eanything to say" or something like that...

It's important for people on the internet to know your views on politics and religion

I've spent a lifetime visiting each forum to tell them that

2 billion forums have now been put right by me.

I think the coffee house was closed due to one person alone. That really bummed me out, because I hate to see the trolls win.

Anyway, the coffee house spirit lives on... infecting the other subforums.

I completely missed out on the Coffee House. Sounds like a pretty cool forum - if no one starts messing things up.

Would love to see what happened in there. It's just a whisper these days so it must have been big!
Oh well...

Why not just start a coffee house thread in the off topic forum?
ORIGINAL: Brad Russell

The coffee house was a seperate forum for Cakewalk customers to talk freely about whatever they wanted to, ie...religion, politics, music, whatever. It was sometimes very contentious but also very interesting. When they got rid of it my post count went way down. That's where I spent most of my forum time and interacted with others the most. Anyway, I guess I waste less time now. Since I don't often have Sonar related questions, and I don't often have answers to the questions of others, I don't post much.

I don't miss the Coffee House one bit. As others have said, it was lots of fun for a while, but when it turned ugly it turned very, very ugly, and I'm glad CW shut it down.
