I don't really think of guitar tricks as just a forum. It's the host stuff and the posted tricks I'm interested in.
The forum is more like the back page of the main site. It's nice to chat once in awhile, but I'd rather spend my time learning new tricks.
I find most of the questions posted here are more for beginners than us seasoned players. Yet another discussion of how to properly tune your guitar or how to clean your fretboard bores the crap outa me so I don't partipate unless it's a subject that I'm interested in.
