    History of Stepfile Ideals

    From the beginning...
    ------------------------------
    "hey lets make files rofl"

    "notepad and ctrl+r and dumps"

    "notes must represent some sound"

    "files must be onsync"

    "files must be layered"

    "files must be technical"

    "files must be creative"

    "files must be art"

    "files must be fun"
    ------------------------------
    ... to the present.


    Do you guys see the pattern here?
    ------------------------------

    Ancient Era - "hey lets make files rofl"

    Medieval Era - "notepad and ctrl+r and dumps"

    Renaissance Era - "notes must represent some sound"

    Baroque Era - "files must be onsync"

    Classical Era - "files must be layered"

    Romantic Era - "files must be technical"

    Contemporary/Modern Era - "files must be creative"

    Post-modern Era - "files must be art"

    Post-post-modern Era - "files must be fun"

    ------------------------------
    Completely perfectly parallel to musical eras.

    Where do we go next?

    Why would you put that in your signature? You've lost your signature rights for a month. (You'll get them back on March 10th, 2012.)

          the smart investment is to sell now, since we dont know how much longer solo stocks will be worth this much.

                Aren't you the one that's expected to pump them out, Patashu?

                really, it would be interesting to read your take on it since your in-depth posts are good reads

                    Do you think we'll enter a time paradox?

                      Where do we go from here? We go to solo, and repeat the process from the classical era.

                            I completely disagree with the comparison to historical eras. Each of the eras had their own peak, their own completeness, before a new idea started to arise. Not so much in stepfile making. Honestly, people are just getting pickier with a silly game, so stepfile makers need to cater to that pickyness.
