Finally managed to get my hands on my dream guitar. Upgrading from a 7 to an 8 string is a bit weird but easier than a 6 to a 7. Some specs for those interested:

  • Skeversen Shoggie 8
  • 26-28" 5-piece pau ferro & wenge neck, flame maple fretboard
  • European ash body, flame maple top wood
  • Bare Knuckle Juggernaut in the Bridge, BKP Cold Sweat in the Neck
  • Skervesen's "World Domination Mod" AKA coil split and "acoustic" switch

That's why I use tinyurl, easier to just remember stuff wherever I'm at rather than bust out my laptop, which honestly I haven't used bookmarks in many years since I started doing things this way now.

I mostly use tinyurl for my own convenience, but it does make it easier to share links as well. I also don't have a tinyurl account, so once I've made a snapshot and a shortlink, it cannot be changed.

Why do it that way with no account? To make sure there's no account for them to be able to ban if they ever find my games collection or anything else they wanna claim DMCA on.

    so, just so you know, it's very easy to highlight a link, copy it, paste it, and share it.

    it's why people despise tinyurl and other link shorteners. they are great ways to hide viruses. as it is your username is already burned just for using them.

    if you want to use them for your convenience, great, but for sharing, click through and give us the long link. and if you have a non-archived one that's better

    it's good etiquette. show's us you're not trying to hide things.

    Its all good, I get it, you have no reason to trust hardly anyone online, and that's understandable. I picked the archive and tinyurl because they're amongst the oldest, longest standing sites on the internet, so while other sites come and go, the things I archive are about as close to permanent as can be these days.

    As easy as it is for me to copy/paste the whole link, it's actually even easier for others to just type in preview.tinyurl.com

    I figured people might actually know how to investigate shortlinks themselves, it's not difficult.
