I rarely post in here, but I'm going to stick up for Jeff. If they came into A/I and made a song that was "All Hail True Britrock" or something, I'm sure we would all have had a good laugh about it. You guys are being a bit childish about the whole situation, saying things like the following:

People like you are the reason I support abortion up to about age 80. Do yourself a favor and inhale zyklon-b as quickly as possible.

So Jeff and tu should be banned for a song they recorded, but this is alright? It seems there is a bit of a double standard there. Anyhow, I'll leave it alone, but I wanted to represent their side.

[RiceMonster]

In his thread you said something like "We need more threads like this"
That wasn't really a serious statement... I don't actually think it would be a good idea to have a ton of those threads floating around here. Enough of this now.

To above, like I said, I'm simply tired of people doing that. It was funny the first time it was done, but now it's just boring. Also, I often get a laugh out of things making fun of black metal, just not when it's overdone...

[Jom]

Deal with it. Everyone reacts differently to jokes.

People who don't get jokes need to take a break from the Internet.

And honestly, Aaron's point still stands. It's hilarious for the pasty, pseudo-Nazi users who are afraid of sunlight when Dargon says funny words like "mallcore" and "faggot," but whenever black and death are picked on, how dare something like that happen!

"Oh, but I'm tired of the jokes because they're overdone."

Knowledgable about metal or not, people got a laugh out of Dargon's antics, then got fed up with him, and rightly so. I don't see the justification there at all. Your pseudo-Nazi antics can stay in the black metal thread because that's what the music is about, but when you guys tried to formulate a "Gestapo" in R&M itself, that violated a couple rules here and deserved to be shut down.

Like it or not, one's music taste gets picked on here. Stop being such whiny bitches about it and just deal with it. Or, hell, ignore it.

Nobody should be banned, and I also don't think it all should have been deleted.

And I'd like to appologize, it was 1:30 AM and I was in need of sleep, and not in the mood for that sort of thing. I wasn't really offended, but more annoyed. I usually don't mind stupid jokes such as that.

I, for one, do not care if anyone makes fun of my music, real life people do it all the time and it does not phase me one bit.

Then you would have ignored it in the first place, eh? Nice one.

Further, they're entirely different circumstances. Anti-semitism and homophobia are justified (I suppose) in your community of tr00ness, but when they infiltrate to other portions of R&M, that's simply not allowed. You guys can idolize Hitler and Goering all you want in your thread, but they committed suicide for a reason, hahaha.

At any rate, everybody seems to have apologized for such ridiculous drama, so I'm laidback about whatever. I trust that they're not going to come back, and if they do, we can take care of it.

Ultimately, I do empathize how irritating it is when people invade your thread/forum, but using Dargon justification isn't going to cut it because those two threads happened on R&M itself, which it should not be subjected to, whereas the gimmick band happened in your thread. If you want, I can remove those posts, but since there was 1) an apology, and 2) members of your thread understanding that it was a joke, I would hope that you can move on and continue your anti-mallcore and pro-Zyklon-B ways.

Just to clear things up, I had no part in that.

And I'd like to appologize, it was 1:30 AM and I was in need of sleep, and not in the mood for that sort of thing. I wasn't really offended, but more annoyed. I usually don't mind stupid jokes such as that.

Thanks. Both events are in the past, though, so no need to worry about it. But if they continue to troll in your thread, I can take care of it for you. It's my assumption, though, that they won't.

Yeah, that was strange I got banned for saying that best/worst threads weren't aloud. I'm not like...bitching about it, I'm just wondering why I got banned, this is my first ban I've ever gotten so I was a little shocked.

It wasn't even really spam, I even posted the thread in here asking for it to be closed, I know the spam rules are getting tigher, but that was a little too tight. I could really care less about the length of the ban, It was just surprising.

[Britney Diva]

Well now you know how Jelle rolls.

[superpeer]

You're not supposed to post in it at all, having three people posting how it's not allowed is pointless. Reporting will do. Threadstarters should find the rules on their own. That's what I think anyway.

[Nostalgia]

Well, as long as we get it cleared up that’s fine with me. I just wasn’t expecting a ban for that. I’ve never really talked to you before so that might have had something to do with it. If I would of made some sort of a spam-related comment, then I believe I’d deserve a ban, the guy had like 14 posts, I was trying to tell him these aren’t aloud, the only thing I think I should of done is link him to the rules. But it’s fine with me; I just wanted to know why.

[Joe]

I'm ok with it. I get it now. Won't happen again.

I have a question:

Does anyone know of any websites that have free downloads of the drums of a song? It's fun playing with real songs but you don't know so much when you mess up (and if you want to record it you can't record with the original because it's got other guitars and vocals and bass). So does anyone know of a site that has midi drum song downloads? Like the midis are already made (because I'm not that smart).

Alright. A word to the wise. I've decided to start copying Jelle's examples when it comes to illegal threads and the community thread.

Short bans will ensue if your post is basically unneccesary.

[Nostalgia]

Yeah, I agree. But it really needs to depend on what the comment is. If there is a large repetition of "Oh, these threads are illegal, noob" Then, yeah, they deserve a ban. But if the person has reported the thread and told the user that they don't belong, then I don't see what rule they're actually breaking.

Just my opinion.

[Otherside]

Your ownage of the Korn TS was excellent Riva

I got banned for saying that the thread didn't belong. My example was what got me banned. That's why I said it.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I think it's still unecessary even if you are the first person posting. Reporting is enough.

[Nostalgia]

Yeah, but if the person doesn't know, you're helping them. Guys, it doesn't really matter if you're helping them, that's being kind, it's not spam.

I'll allow the first post that is a helpful one to go unscathed. But thirty "Illegal thread" posts are not needed.

No, they'll proably make the same thread with the first post being something along the lines of "i dont know why the other thread was deleted so i made another!!!!!"

I thought that round of bans were utterly idiotic. IMO.

I agree you can't have 25 people just posting the same line. "The Threads illegal man, read the rules next time, welcome to MX"

It just seems there are much more ban worthy actions than people trying to help out a n00b.

I mean. Plexi is a cool guy but his spam is more "ban worthy" than a vet trying to help someone.

In the end it's the Mod's call to make and we obviously need to accept the rules or not post.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It just seems there are much more ban worthy actions than people trying to help out a n00b.
Well spam posts like '123' and single smileys are against the rules, and that's essentially what's happening after the first person helps the threadstarter.

It was only for a day anyway.

[I'm Charming]

It was only for a day anyway.


Okay. That's more reasonable. I thought it was longer for some reason.


I think it's if over enforced then it's pure idiocy. If there are 25 people adding to their post count than I say 1-3 day ban.

How is it an oxymoron?

Black metal is first and foremost about misanthropy, about hating everyone. Henceforth we can discuss it's musical aspects and the lyrics without getting dragged into another 6 page long religious debate.

[Silenius]

Well the Norwegian founders also tended to burn churches every now and then... I just don't see how you can enjoy BM if you follow Christianity as misanthropy is also in contrast to judeo-christian.
