Nice. Where'd you get them from? I tried Primark socks once, left fluff balls all over my carpet.

Primark socks defo aint worth the hassle. Pay a little bit more and the last longer. I go for UniGlo personally.

where and who mentioned the "dubstep politics" you speak of? only you...

the moderators aren't "working hard" to allow group A to be trolled, and group B to be promoted. what you're implying is totally ridiculous. there's dozens (and i'll find them if you want) of skream threads on this site, where he's getting slated and also supported. opinions are opinions. everyone has a right to them, but trolling popular dj's and producers (burial, zomby, skream, rusko, caspa, skrillex) is becoming a growing sport on this site as we get bigger, and when there's a pattern of it, the moderators will definitely get involved, as its stupid.

just as we get involved when unknown DJ XYZ has a problem with DJ ABC, or DJ 123 thinks he can flood the site with soundcloud spam. moreover, this idea that skream doesn't need protecting, is also as silly as implying that we should only be protecting and promoting new talent. we started the dub's forum to do exactly that 4 years ago, so you don't have anything to stand on in regards to that. this whole site is geared towards helping people get exposed, connected and on their own path.

I went to topman, not a shop I go to (mainly cos I'd like to punch most of the guys in there on general principles) but I needed cheap socks. They aint bad either

1. Guy asks people that have seen Skream & Benga play out lately what sort of music they're playing, and if they think he'd enjoy it.
2. People give their opinions and relay their experiences of recent Skream & Benga sets to OP.
3. Trolling? :?

H&M socks are alright, not too pricey and keep their shape. Gap socks are pretty nice too but you pay a bit more and the manufacturing process probably involves a cow being killed or something.

edit: sock convo is being ruined by all this talk about DJs.

i'm speaking of the pattern of trolling on this site, and its growth. not just this specific thread. no one can say that skream doesn't get trolled here.

I disagree. Unless we disagree on what we think trolling is. If by not falling head-over-heels for everything Skream has ever done is trolling, then yes, I guess there is. What I see in most discussions about Skream is people talking about which Skream tracks they do and don't like, which is completely fair enough. As much as you might think that everybody has forgotten that Skream was one of the "originals", it hasn't happened. Some people just don't like everything he's ever made.
