stein Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 France, Germany, Spain, Netherlands, they have their own Gibson forums in "Gibson International". If Scottland becomes independant, should they have their own? Last time I remember we had a vote, The EPIPHONE lounge voted to have independance from the GIBSON lounge. I will also make this a poll in the EPI lounge.
slimt Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Do you think they should have there own forum? Do they build Gibsons in Scotland?
zigzag Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Aye, Scotttlandd needs their own forum. Any country who doesn't speak English should have their own forum.
rct Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 No. They are too cheap to buy Gibsons. Man I hope Pippy is laughing. rct
stein Posted September 19, 2014 Author Posted September 19, 2014 I will be tabulating results as they come in all night. I expect if they get their own forum (IF Gibson lets them), there will be many things to sort out. PIPPY is a shoe-in for moderator I think.
rct Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 I exercised the ultimate paradox of American voting . I proclaimed No they should not, and voted Yes. rct
stein Posted September 19, 2014 Author Posted September 19, 2014 I exercised the ultimate paradox of American voting . I proclaimed No they should not, and voted Yes. rct At least you voted. It is surprising you are the ONLY one so far. By making the effort to exorcise some democracy here, I would have expected this to rally.
pippy Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 No!......ermm I mean NAW! You lot must put up with our witterings! Nowhere To Run To, Baby! Nowhere To Hide! There's To Be No Escape!....lol! P.
Jimi Mac Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Well it's a bit of a moot point now, but... No, that just puts fewer and fewer folks together. There's one Gibson and it's from The USA. It is to be shared with all free peoples across the globe of like minded guitar communion... Even if I'm of Scotch ancestry and Kin... I am American born, but know where my roots are buried.... On hallowed Scottish ground! Sadly, I didn't even know this was afoot and had no idea until I saw headlines speaking of the vote that was happening yesterday... I just wasn't up on any of the movement or what it was about... But I don't think we need to disintegrate or segregate Gibson lovers for any particular reason... SCOTLAND FEREVAR!!!
btoth76 Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Hello! Once I asked in a mail, can we have a Hungarian section here... Didn`t even get a reply. Now I know, it's because we aren`t independent either, being part of EU. ;) Cheers... Bence
pippy Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Aye, Scotttlandd needs their own forum. Any country who doesn't speak English should have their own forum. Actually, come to think of it.........wouldn't America come under that description, zz?.......lol!
badbluesplayer Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Actually, come to think of it.........wouldn't America come under that description, zz?.......lol! You'uns o'var are funny! Hit wouldn't surprahze me iffun y'all ain't never talkin' rahght 'till we learn y'all some.
stein Posted September 19, 2014 Author Posted September 19, 2014 Scottland has voted to stay unified. The forums have also voted to stay unified, with a 25% "yes" and a 75% "no". (although one "yes" appears to be in favor of a "no", which would make the votes total 100%). Activity in the discussion threads was good, with about 75% or so of active forumites posting, however voter turnout for the poll threads was low, with only 4 choosing to vote, even with 6 posting on the poll thread itself. With more poeple choosing to talk about it and fewer voting, this appears to be consistant with American habits. It may be the result of a majority of Americans being on the forums.

Great observations.. I would have voted but the polls closed before I climbed out of bed.

10K-DB Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 No. They are too cheap to buy Gibsons. Man I hope Pippy is laughing. rct lol
10K-DB Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Maybe Gibson should have its own Scotland forum,,wait,,Im confused,,did I miss something? No,,just kidding,,anyways,,news today is that they voted against being indie of UK,,I guess theres alot of reasons,,coming up w/there own currency,,defense of the country,,and many others,,one could google it,,and read all about it. It may be that "Nationalism" as opposed to "Internationalism" is starting to be desired by some countries. What do I know,,Im just a mere layman,,and I know nothing about world political systems.

dem00n Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 For interested parties. What have they done for us?
pippy Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Further to dem00n's link... It should come as no surprise to anyone that the Scots invented both the Mackintosh raincoat and the Thermos flask... P.
