Oh no! I got trolled! What will I do to recover from the trauma! WHY ME?!?! THIS IS WORSE THAN THE TIME I GOT RAPED!!! I feel so foolish I just hate myself now!!!!
Just in case you failed to pick up on the sarcasm, nobody cares.
I'd rather return this idiots tirade and get trolled than have some n00b take what he's saying to heart and set themselves back by months.

i could troll to the next level and make a thread complaining about threads complaining about datsik threads, but i think anyone with half a brain can see the potential exponential trolling paradox this could cause, which could put the very space time continuum of the production forum, dsf, and the whole of the internet at risk.

TO ALL YOU WANNABEE PRODUCERS:
Please create your OWN sounds, get your OWN synths, your OWN sequencer and daw, your OWN style and your OWN creative mind. By constantly asking this forum how to make a Datsik/Rusko/Bar9/Reso whatever the fuck sound, you are NOT growing as a musician!!
If you REALLY want to achieve something in music you need to be creative. I'm not saying i'm all that but at least i try to be creative.
The reason i'm never on this forum anymore is because of all the little wining shitheads asking how to make a certain sound.
FUCK OFF!!
So, thats it. Have a nice day.

Yeah, because we all want to code our own synths, write a totally new sequencer/daw and after all that, make our own drum samples and then finally get down and create original music with our own style.
Get off your high horse. Who are you to dictate what people should do?
And P.S, I bet you've listened to something and thought "wow, I wanna learn how to make that sound" ... Rehashing isn't the problem if its done well.

To the op - you're a douchebag.
Although your opinion is valid - learning how to mimic other people's sounds is a great way to get started to learning your own sounds. They are used as a reference point and along the way you discover how some things work. Through a single thread I created some time ago about Antiserum's Dope Angel, one point of advice led me on a journey to creating all sorts of sounds that mimic'd what I personally liked to hear. As well as doing that, I've also created a stack of presets of my own that I feel are "my sound", because they're synths and incidentals that were created by going completely off-track.
Although a stack of people asking the same thing over and over gets old (that's why we have stickied threads), it's still a very valid and good starting point to learning how to produce.
You need to take a chill pill and not let such ridiculous things get to you - it's causing you more problems than anyone else

The great joke is, his stuff actually sounds like pretty generic midrange wobblers, not too shy of the datsik sound actually XD

I considered this hard one time, but came to the same conclusion. Also I have my doubts on the general forum populace's powers of observational intelligence.

Opinions can be wrong. Op's is one such example.

OP's argument might hold some weight if he were FyLo/Burial/Radiohead
hardly cutting edge, is he, though?
...Just sayin....

I would still disagree if it was any major producer saying the same thing. Not everyone learns the same way.

Mm, no doubt, but his "be creative" sctick seems pretty hypocritical.
Eh. Who knows, maybe he was just having a rough day with this tirade...

Assholes, man.. The world is full of 'em.
DSF is a goldmine of info. Give a man, a fish and he'll eat for the day, give a 16yr old tips on how to sound make F**thy bass and he
might just one day sell records. Asking questions is key, to a certain extent
