I just don't know why you bother with trying to defend which topics should and should not be posted here. Ultimately, it's irrelevant. The only reason they have for not posting here are these: more relevant interest in other forums and mods could close them. Where do you come in in those scenarios?

That looks amazing I thought 8 was the most you could get!!! This is the only guy I've ever seen use one all the time, but it would be good to see a 9 string master!

And the award for best dressed 8 string guitarist goes to:

Well, to be honest I'm not extremely uptight kind of person who would yell "WRONG FORUM" if I see an irrelevant topic (if I'm in a bad mood that day I might flame someone for posting in the wrong topic but that doesn't mean I think it's a big deal o.O), but if you want to get technical about what this forum is about, the "About This Forum" thread makes it very clear (:

...haha.... douchey...

i dont know anyone that died of aids or cancer recently but my banjo strings are 2 years old and i wouldnt change them for anything (clawhammer style). my mandolin strings get changed at least once per two months, sometimes once per month (so dont call me lazy, its all about tone).

Sounds pretty disgusting in honesty, but some of my favourite guitarists don't believe in cleaning their instruments so w/e

i prefer stretched out steel strings (start with daddario heavy). clawhammer isnt the kind of picking where you use fingerpicks like on deliverance. its more of a flowing appalachian hillbilly approach (still very hard to master). everytime ive changed strings on my other banjo (the bluegrass banjo) i try clawhammer on it and im all "ewww". i do clean them with a paper towel or sometimes steel wool.

I'm right there with you brothah! Sitting here with D'Addario heavy's on my acoustic that I haven't changed for a few months. Now usually I change every 2 weeks or so, but I've been very busy, and I can't be buying new strings every two weeks. I hate the sound I get in the first week and a half, finally for like 2 days they sound amazing to me, then after that they become extremely dead. But D'Addario heavys that are dead still sound much better than every other brand, in my experience.

Any cheese with that whine sir?
