I think you're wrong, and I don't think it's a weird assumption. I think it's quite reasonable to suggest that, given evolution and the survival instinct, a species which has already evolved to self-consciousness and phenomenological enquiry will continue to try to understand its environment in order to survive better, and as its understanding increases, it will eventually abandon its requirement for superstition. "The" metaphysical only exists because of humankind's insufficiently informed attempts to explain its situation and its environment. Once (thousands, millions of years from now, however long it takes, provided the species doesn't get wiped out or wipe itself out first) humankind has sufficient explanations for its environment, the need to fill in the gaps won't persist, because there won't be any gaps. This wouldn't mean "the end of history" (you can't apply that phrase to every discussion, however much you may like it), it would just be one more stage. You cock end.

No new posts About unmoderated.co.uk
This is, believe it or not, an unmoderated web forum. It's aimed primarily at musicians and wannabe rock stars, etc, but you don't have to be one to join, and the topics covered don't have to be musical or music-related. We'll kick out nasty people posting really nasty stuff, but other than that, you can say what you like.

It's unmoderated because we want to allow people to say what they mean, and to say it how they want to say it. As this can be less than 100% polite, only registered members can read threads, post, and see everything uncensored. (You can register here if you want to see them and maybe join in.)

"About unmoderated.co.uk" contains tantalizing titbits of info about the rest of the forum, for the benefit of those of you who have yet to register and who give a flying toss.

The unmoderated guts of unmoderated.co.uk; a homage to the mountain of gibberish that is our very own te me !. Regulars, newcomers, hardened old cynics who can't be bothered with any other forums; all are welcome to pile in, shoot the breeze and talk a load of old crap.

The first rule of Flame Club is ... you're an ****hole.
Actually, scratch that, you're not just an ****hole; you're a prolapsed ****hole hanging from the syphilitic accidental offspring of a sybaritic whore and her vile, humpbacked, leprous, typhoid-ravaged pimp.

If you want to talk about politics, the environment, religion, society, all that **** - or even (gasp) Mac vs PC, or hardware vs software - then do it here. It'll inevitably end up with rows, so argue all you like; we couldn't give a ****. Don't expect us to bail you out, and don't expect us to give a **** when some **** offends you. It's your lookout.

No new posts Jokes
This might appear to be just a forum for posting jokes, but in fact it's a social experiment; a kind of trial by humour. Some might say it's a "reality forum". Any joke you want to post is fine by us - we're going to let the population cut you down if it's crap or out of order. A plutocracy where amusement is the currency - or some such ****e.

How do I plug this keyboard into the mixer? I mean they've both got holes in them, shouldn't one of them have a plug? And what's that button do? How do I make the lights flash in time with the music? A what? A resonant filter? I thought that was like a horror movie or something?

No new posts Instrumental Issues
It has come to the attention of the managers of www.unmoderated.co.uk that in days of yore, prior to the current, glorious age of digital music generation, there flourished a particular type of craftsperson rejoicing in the moniker of "minstrel". These willowy, lonesome types plucked away on their archaic "instruments", often constructions as simple as bits of wood with lengths of cord attached to them and held taut so as to reverberate when plucked, bowed or bashed with small pieces of plastic. Such loners would spend most of their time engaged in such activity; so obsessed were they with their neolithic devices that when not doing so, they'd discuss endlessly the various merits of one such type or other. "Lovely neck", they'd say, or "I prefer humbucking, me". Losers.

No new posts The Mangle
So you're proud of your new tune. You've spent ages on the mix, getting the arrangement just so, and you could do with getting a bit of positive, constructive feedback. Just a touch of "It's not really my cup of tea, but I can see how it might work in some markets" here, maybe a smidgin of "I think it's great but it needs just a little bit more oomph" there. You think that maybe posting it up to a forum will help you to acquire the approbation you crave and give you the gumption to take it forward. Well, think again; you won't get any of that **** here. Post it through the Mangle, and we'll tell you what we think. Seriously.

No new posts Bargains! Much cheapness!
Right, we didn't set up this oasis of bliss in a desert of rampant commercialism just so that you pigs could reduce it to a market stall, but seeing as you have already, we might as well dive in head first and give you this, the unmoderated.co.uk "Gear to sell" forum. Usual rules apply - sales and purchases are ****-all to do with us and don't come whining to us if some nobhead rips you off, you really should be able to sort that sort of stuff out for yourself by now. And any jokes about "selling gear' will be snorted at contemptuously.

No new posts Smelly Deli
Ah, the gentle aroma of a warm Brie; the spicy warmth of a bold Shiraz; the subtle delicacy of a seared scallop. The lip-smacking zing of a mixed Aftershock; the ineffable, transcendent glory of cheesy beans on toast. All must consume, for such is our design; yet consumption need not serve a merely functional purpose. Gourmet, gourmand, gastronome alike; all who wish to present a paean to the profiterole or forward a formula for the furnishing of frills on our food are enjoined so to do herewithin. Enjoy, nos petits choux-fleurs.

It's feasible that you might want to talk on other forums, possibly even without peppering every sentence with a cuss-word, about specific subjects, with other people than those who regularly hang around here. Well, maybe. So just in case, here's a place we'll post links to those other ones. Let us know if you have a link we should include. We might.

Post a topic so ****e that it's universally ignored; we'll make a public show of you and your staggering lack of charisma by transferring your drivel into the Unmoderated stocks and allowing only small pieces of tumbleweed to flutter sadly by.

No new posts Spewback
You can post complaints, suggestions about forum functionality (etc) here, if you really haven't got anything better to do. To be honest complaints'll probably go straight in the bin, but you might as well post 'em if you're really ****ed off about something, 'cos we might read them if we feel like having a laugh. All suggestions welcome, subject to us being interested in them.
