Thank you for setting this up on my behalf as well!

A question: am I complete idiot for not figuring out how to get an external link posted on the Forum to open in a new window?

Opening in the same window seems to be built into the standard phpBB coding. I’m sure if I played around with it long enough I could come up with something but the easiest solution is to manually open in new tab/window (not really possible for mobile, I know).

Nice to hear, definitely appreciated. Gives me something easy to browse while at work. Will report back on anything I notice once I've had a chance to try it out.

Sorry for the delayed response. There currently isn't an option to embed Soundcloud or any other player here (and the YouTube one needs revamping). The initial idea of this forum was to have it be a more stripped-down place, away from the busy bombardment of other social media. There are certain things can be beneficial, such as embedded players, and I will look into it soon.

thanks, got it! no problems about posting links only, just thought i can't get how to. however having player embedded, most probably will lead to users listening more to each other's posted stuff. there is this strange thing going on, laziness to click on the link (of which i'm guilty too sometimes). in the early 90's when there were no shops selling unconventional music we used to go with empty tapes to pirates gathering literary in a forest on the city edge, paying for recording and coming back to get them in a week. that was dedication, now we have become lazy :D

Hey, if I lived near you I would be happy to meet up in the woods to trade some tapes. I would throw in a loop or two as well!

the only thing we need to do is to go back in time :) those years were immersed in extreme metal and grind records, also gave me the first glimpses of industrial and related stuff, not much, but enough to modify and later change the sonic interests.
