Like does it want the tuning spelled out like EADGBE

So..... just a sanity check here: Are we answering 6-string tunings on sevenstring.org?

If that IS the answer, you're missing the low B.
BEADGBE

I've been a member since 2011, have 1574 posts and have sold and bought a lot of gear on the marketplace. I must be the most advanced bot in history.

Do you know how many PS5s and sneakers bots have bought and sold in the last year?

We tried tons of 6 and 7 string tunings.

Yeah but posting since 2011 would be the longest con in history for virtually no payout. I don't know much about bots, but I don't think they're capable of taking pictures of gear in my living room and answering specific questions in the sale threads lol So either I must be the most sophisticated bot in history or maybe I'm just a guitarist whose bandmate wanted to join the forum I told him about lol Occam's Razor would suggest the latter.

There was one here yesterday dropping crypto links as a first post that has been a member for 7 years. That’s playing the long game.

I’ve been a member for almost 17 years and I still have a few surprises up my sleeve.

You may be overthinking it.

I must be, because nothing worked. We even tried the most simple answers like "B" and "E" but still, nothing lol

Dude we tried SO many tunings. I think the main problem is we didn't know what format to answer the question in. Like does it want the tuning spelled out like EADGBE, does it want spaces, is it case sensitive, etc. There's just too many variables lol

EDIT: I also considered that it might be my browser, because Firefox notoriously isn't friendly with some stuff like that, so I tried Chrome and Safari but it was the same on all of them.

I don't remmember what choice I made upon sign up or what the question was, or maybe I had to select image tiles. Honestly just don't remmember.

But I used Firefox exclusively as my main browser for ages, never had any issues and I don't plan on going to the google browser ever.

I feel you. The main reason I stick with Firefox is because they're supposedly the only browser that actually gives a fuck about your privacy. But I have had issues in the past with certain functions of websites not working correctly on Firefox.

Does your bandmate play bass?
It just might be that we're currently not looking for more bassists.

Yeah I've run into that aswell. Sometimes there's a solution in an addon or browser plugin if something is no longer supported by Firefox directly. But if your friend gets past the captcha then I promise mostly everything works on Firefox reguarding this site.

Sometimes images are broken and show up as random text and numbers but it seems that's a universal issue on every forum ever and not a browser problem. Other than that everything works.

If all else fails, just have your bud contact a mod or have you do it on his behalf to open up his account from the inside bypassing the captcha.

He actually does play bass! lmao his first question was, "Well... are they talking about guitar or bass?" i tried to explain that playing bass doesn't make him a guitarist but he didn't quite understand lol

It's not that kind of captcha. It's a specific question with a very specific answer, apparently lol

Just as I thought, you didn't get the joke, robot confirmed! :lol:

In the days of djent, I don’t think a lot of guitarists understand, either.

I hope this doesn't put a damper on the Garth Brooks CBD gummies.

:idea:

Maybe that's what the tuning is... CBDCBD

Or GBCBDG, really pushing that high G to the limit.

I gotta give those bots credit for thinking about how this board is related to music, so, throw names of musicians into the spam, but they gravitate so heavily toward country music, which, and I may be wrong, doesn't seem like the typical demographic here. It'd seem more authentic if they were pushing Maestro Alex Gregory CBD gummies by claiming that they invented the CBD gummy without any substantive proof.

Chri · Jan 20, 2023

I would buy Maestro Alex Gregory gummies just to say I did. Surely they would have been the first of their kind, and we’d have the man himself to thank for the plethora of CBD gummies on the market today. Who needs proof? What is a man (insert Castlevania Dracula meme) if we can’t take his word on things?

ZXIIIT · Jan 20, 2023

I guess I'm in the overthinking crowd too because I forgot my password away from home and could not figure out the captcha to reset my password, lol.
