Im in a good mood guys
hey babeStevenson, what are you even doing on this thread?
We all want to be able to control who comes to events and such, and have agreed on this via a teamspeak discussion. So many people on this mod are toxic and want to be in control, and see themselves as the reason this mod is alive again.That sounds immensely ironic. Who in in the world is "we"? It's like you think it's okay to get rid of certain players just because you don't like them. If that goes through it'll suddenly sound like you want to be in control instead. You can't simply ban someone because they're toxic. Let server admins deal with that instead.
That's an interesting question!Oooh, how interesting! I had no idea. Thanks for the explanation.
The rank "Hautboist" dates back to the 17th century when oboes were considered a main instrument of the military orchestra - one of the oboe-players used to lead the orchestra when practicing and set the tone, similiar to the civilian position of the first violin. However, in the late 18th and 19th century armymusicians in general used to be called "Hoboist" or "Hautboist" until the First World War in Germany. The purpose of the name was to distinguish between actual musicians and the usual tambours giving drum- or hornsignals:
The Hautboists made up the actual band, led by a Kapell- or Musikmeister.
The "Signalisten" on the other hand - drummers, trumpeters, hornists (fifers had been abolished before the Napoleonic Wars) - were not considered to be equal to Hautboists as their main purpose was rather simple signalling, while the Hautboists played the actual music. That's why Hautboists were higher in rank and pay.
Way to go avoiding my question. Why do you waste your time with this? There is no point.Why do you waste your time with this?
you literally have 1500 posts on this forum and you're getting on me for wasting my time?
Sure, it's not a full drum corps, sure, the drum riff is not part of the song, but the video from the game? The fifer misses several notes and doesn't seem to keep a steady tempo. Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm wrong, but that doesn't sound exactly like "Hell on the Wabash".Did you expect the band of her majesty's royal marines to show up and record fife and drums or what? I think it sounds fair enough for a preview. Besides, it's already 10 times better than the fife and drum from Holdfast that uses samples with no other articulations than staccato...
