[sdiy] trolls and unicorns

[Sean Ellis]

I try to avoid posting on these types of threads but if you think AH is a 
troll fest you dont frequent the internet very often. It was part of my job 
to consult with the community for my last game I worked on, AH (forget about 
SDIY) is the height of good manners and camaraderie compared to the internet 
as a whole. I have this printed on my wall at work:

:-D

Back to business, why are there so few PPL modules out there? A long time 
ago I made a crazy module with a PPL at its heart, it was based on a harmony 
circuit that was supposed to perform a backup when a person whistled a tune. 
With some careful additions it turned into an amazing 'fattener' module for 
synths, the tracking was awful and sounded like your drunk friend trying to 
see what keys you were pressing....I always wondered why people dont use 
PPLs more.
