Band Bashing, Is This All This Board And Its Moderators Do? Options

[SinfulEyes]

No that is not all this site is about, but we do go through runs where people just start complaining about the boards all of the time. Take this thread for example. I happen to think there's some really good stuff here if you look. Just check out the lovely updates to the MP3 section on your way out!

On my way out? Where am I going?

[Pokey]

LMFAO, here comes music authority Alex on who's better than who. Are you even old enough to drink yet buddy?

Saying rush are far ahead of Live musically and technically, is just a bit of an overstatement. That is, if it were to be looked at "objectively."

What the hell has him drinking got to do with it? See you bring something completely irrelevent to the discussion and try to turn it into an insult, why?

He might be old enough to be your grandson but he's a lot more mature than you are.

Anyways, how is it an overstatement? How do you look at it if not objectively?
Not that im saying I agree, to be honest I've probably heard 2 Rush songs so I'm not really gonna make an opinion on who I think is better, but if you're gonna state the above do you mind expanding?

Age and experience have lots to do with it douche, they contribute to knowledge. You 17 year old wannabes know jack shit.

And yes, I mind.

You're completely ridiculous, aren't you? As Pokey said, that is completely irrelevant. Experience does, to an extent, have something to do with this, but that doesn't change my level of musical knowledge.

Secondly, my post was stating that Rush's new material is far better than Live's new material. Maybe I should have made it more clear that I meant that Rush's NEW material, compared to Live's NEW material, is far ahead in terms of musicality etc. But then I don't expect to be attacked about something completely irrelevant after making a post... The fact that you did this alone proves that age has less impact on maturity than it probably should.

This is the trouble with many people on forums; they can't seperate their own enjoyment of the music from an objective and un-biased viewpoint. So many people seem to think that their favourite band is the 'best band in the world'...

As musicians, Rush are definitely superior. But I still prefer, and enjoy Live a lot more than I do Rush.

Age and experience have lots to do with it douche, they contribute to knowledge.

Doesn't seem to have contributed much in your case.....

Besides, I've been going to music lessons since I was 4. My whole life revolves around music. I'm not going to be told by some loser on a forum that my musical knowledge amounts to nothing because of my age.

He might be old enough to be your grandson but he's a lot more mature than you are.

Cheers

I agree for the most part.

But if I'm such a loser, why are you talking to me? What does that make you? Intellectually inferior, I can pretty much guarantee you that.

Irrelevant was my point? REALLY? You know nothing about music now compared to what you'll know 15 years from now, that's fact.

Also, some people do things all their lives, practice sport, music.....whatever. In no way does that mean you are good at it, "objectively" that is.

[LiveRoCkS77]

Thanks for the heads up grizz. I just bought snakes and arrows online. I think the tune you gave me the link to in the Rush thread you started made that decision for me.

Never been a huge fan of Rush, but by the sounds of the first couple of tunes, you're right. This cd absolutely smokes anything Live have done for a long time now. Thanks.

shut up bitch!!!! I'll beat your ass.

[slainte]

you are sooooooooooooooooo scary! but you did spell it all correctly and with good punctuation.

[SJN1279]

I still don't care for Rush. And there is no way that anything that band does smokes anything that Live has done. But that's just me

[Grandpa Grizz]

The really big question is which band sucks worse: Dream Theater or U2?

So intelligent people talking to morons such as yourselves makes YOU more intelligent, and them intellectually inferior?

Right.

And I agree, in 15 years time I will know more about music. Obviously. But I can guarantee you that I am more knowledgeable about music than you are. I have 100% no doubt about this.

Thank you.

Wow, what a loser!!! I sooooooooo enjoy getting you little punks all riled up!!

And what the fuck did that first paragraph mean?? "To morons such as yourselves???" WHAT? Am i more than one person all of a sudden? And you call yourself intelligent in the same sentence? Obviously not nearly as knowledgeable in the English language are you????

That's your big comeback that you obviously felt compelled to make?? "I'm more knowledgeable about music than you are!" nah nah nah nah nah.....lmfao.

Wow buddy, maybe you should lay off the music sheets and spend some time getting an education. Grade 9 English might be a good place to start and if you need help, I can lend a hand. Take it from somebody who is twenty times smarter than you are, being intellectually challenged won't get you far in life.

So no, thank you!!!

[Alex]

Seriously... you're pathetic. I made a typo on a message board. Big fucking deal. I obviously meant 'yourself'. What the hell is your basis on being twenty times smarter than me? And yes, my 'comeback' was related to music since that's what we're fucking discussing.

Get a life.
