I'm wondering if any of you here were members of JamTank? Has been more than ten years and the site is now defunct, but to many it was one of the very first underground (or "urban" as it was known then) forums in English. There was a healthy rivalry with Malaise, Metalscene and to a certain extent The-Bazement (strangely). All the three aforementioned sites are also defunct.

During its heydays there were quite a number of musicians who hung out there - JD (Pop Shuvit), Meng (Love Me Butch), the Dragon Red guys, Tempered Mental, Josh (Flatline), Ash ("orionpax") and not forgetting the late, great Alda Tan.

Any ex-JamTankers here?

Yes, Vulcan.x. I banned him a couple of time, and yet he got resurrected each time.

I still own the JamTank.com domain. Exchanged hands some time ago but I managed to get it back. Was thinking of reviving it but meh.

Yeah, DAMAGEPLAN. The most prolific JamTank poster, ever. Where did that dude go?

Site went down periodically because we hit the bandwidth cap at least a couple of times per month. Too cheap to upgrade.

Gap - how are you?

Selling what shit? You mean, the marketplace?

I once had a kid's mom threatening to call the police because his son sold a crap guitar and he got flamed for it.
