As for the songs, I didn't mean forced listening, :p , I was talking about when people want songs on a specific band. Like when they say, "Recommend me some Rhapsody, etc." This way they post it in there, rather than in the forum. If that makes sense?

If it's last 15 years, it goes back to 1989. And I'd say the first full-length record was released is a good barometer of when they officially started.

So Nirvana are on the border, by my take on it. When was Bleach released? '88 or '89?

89

I think that might work as criterion, the first LP release date. It might exclude a few deserving bands potentially, but I think it is workable.

Iai
11-05-2004, 01:39 PM
It excludes Soundgarden, as November 1988 was their debut (UltraMegaOk). They stick out in my mind. But then again, you have to have criterion for 'modern'. I'll go find an example of a band who debuted in 1988 that nobody in their right mind would call modern....

Edit: There was GnR in 1987, who were in Classic Rock. And nobody should be in both. Also Public Enemy, for those who know who they are, was also 1987. For '88 you're got The Pixies, My Bloody Valentine, Morrissey, Mudhoney....would you include those?

Permanent Solution
11-05-2004, 01:52 PM
Soundgarden seems to be a glaring omission, as do the pixies, but then again, GnR should definitely not be in there...maybe say 1988 instead? Up to you if you end up running it, but I would bet there would be complaints if those two were left out of the polls...

What happened to the recommendations thread that had songs to check out for a lot of bands?

and whats this reputation thing? when was it introduced and why? And where do i see it. I dotn see it in User CP

I think they do.

http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=258767

Here is the thread in the site forum. Not much info on it yet, though.

Good stuff, SFK. That is a really great idea. And Medopalis should be a mod of R & M, for all the good stuff he does around here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, I was wondering if we could start an "exposure" thread. Somewhere were people can post bands that they think are up-and-coming, or are relatively unknown. We would have to restrict people from posting their own bands though.

We could set it up so that they review the band, give it a genre, classification, etc. and then list their favourite song and maybe a link to their sample mp3s etc.



Also, how would a "Recommended songs thread" go down? It seems we always have tons of people saying "Recommend me some Megadeth, etc." and it clutters up the forums quite a bit. I redirect them if it is related to an official thread (e.g. Classic Rock or Death Heads etc), but some of these are of relatively unknown bands. So in this thread, they post the band, and their general musical tastes, and others can then give a list of songs that they think that poster will like. I haven't got a major beef with these types of threads, but it would streamline the forum a bit. (In my opinion at least :) )

What do you all think? Sorry if it is a bit unclear what I'm getting at. :p

We had a thread like that for awhile. Ive been asking where it is ever since it disappeared. I have asked 3 times in this very thread where it is haha.

I've got a thread idea, 'Must have Metal Albums.' People are always asking what's the best album by a certain artist, well this thread would be a big help. In each post someone posts an album, the tracklisting, type of music etc. I've seen this thread be big on other forums, so i figure why not here.

Can I say something? I just want to express how happy I am that we have such kickarse mods running this forum. I know I will sound like I am brown-nosing, but it needs to be said.

When I first started here, we only had SFK and Jelle, and Nacho actually posted here occasionally :eek: Then a short time later, Chris became the third mod of R&M, and now we have Bartender as another. The forum when I first started was pretty **** good, but still had quite a few idiot posters, quite a few spam threads and not as much good discussion as we do now.

You may have noticed that as the time has gone by, there has been fewer and fewer threads reported in here, and much more positive suggestions and such. I know I have been here a short time, but I think this forum has gone from a good forum to a great one, quite possibly the best on MX. And it really comes back to the mods, and some excellent regular users; Pigs, Gilmour (The Poster Formerly Known As KingofDudes), Rock Not Roll, BoboTheRagingHobo, and of course Medopalis (who should be a mod by now :naughty: ).

So, good on you guys. Thanks for making this a really awesome place for me to come when I'm relaxing at home, or avoiding study at uni. I've made some good friends here, and I hope to be here for a lot longer. Good stuff! :thumb:

The great mods have certainly help cut down on the idiot posters since I have been here...when I first joined there was tons of idiots. Also with the help of good posters makes this a great forum now with pretty much good dicussion all the time.

Hey, I was wondering what you guys would think of a couple ideas to help weed some things out that like to float around and get annoying.

A nu-metal thread. Hopefully this could cut down on a lot of the Slipknot, Disturbed, System of a Down, Mudvayne, Mushroomhead, and Korn threads. There seems to be hundreds of them constantly floating around. It gets annoying to some.

A Punk-metal/grindcore thread of some sort. Hopefully this would give a place for the Atreyu, From Autumn to Ashes, 36 Crazyfists, and Thrice fans to discuss w/o getting flamed out of both the punk and rock/metal forums.

I would suggest a Guns N' Roses official thread, but at this time there doesn't seem to be enough gn'r fans in here to justify it. Keep it in mind though if you guys could, please.

You two are very rude, but let me make one thing clear on the behalf of atreyu_breakingbenjamin. For anyone who cares, his computer froze up, and he kept trying to post that post but it wouldn't go through. Come to find out, it did post- once for every time he hit the post reply button trying to get it to work. Not until he got his computer rebooted did he realize this, and the next time he got on, well wouldn't ya know he's banned for something he didn't do on purpose. So i would suggest that people not judge until they know the facts, and mods not ban people on spur of the moment. If somebody who normally doesnt do that apparantly does and then you don't hear from them again, wouldn't you assume that something went wrong first before immediately banning them? atreyu_breakingbenjamin hopes you are all very proud of yourselves for being the sh!ttalkers that you are. That would be in reference to the two above idiots esp.

For anyone who cares, his computer froze up, and he kept trying to post that post but it wouldn't go through. Come to find out, it did post- once for every time he hit the post reply button trying to get it to work. Not until he got his computer rebooted did he realize this, and the next time he got on, well wouldn't ya know he's banned for something he didn't do on purpose. So i would suggest that people not judge until they know the facts, and mods not ban people on spur of the moment. If somebody who normally doesnt do that apparantly does and then you don't hear from them again, wouldn't you assume that something went wrong first before immediately banning them? atreyu_breakingbenjamin hopes you are all very proud of yourselves for being the sh!ttalkers that you are. That would be in reference to the two above idiots esp.


The servers time out sometimes, but when you send a request most of the time even if it does not load the reply is sent. You just can't connect to the server again for a few minutes to see your message. Learn some common sense about the internet and this would have never happened.

Hmmm, yeah I've been noticing a name around here that is entitled "rippa32," which just bears a bit too close a similarity to my own "ripper22" for me to automatically dismiss it as a coincidence...(strokes chin in suspicion)

Just kidding. I doubt I'm that popular.

If you guys are this dumb I hope you leave the forum. I banned you for making about 50 stupid posts in the classic rock and Led Zeppelin thread. Did you computer freeze 50 times a piece in these threads causing you to type idiotic posts?

Your wearing my patience really thin. Enough of this crap. Don't come back till your ban is up. If you act like an azz again Im gonna skip the 30 day ban. Won't bother me a bit.

Talk to DBJ. Tell him I sent you to him. Tell him that you are an ex-problem user who has seen the light and want to get away from your current name and want to reflect more of who you are in your new name.

Im glad to see your gonna stick around. Don't hesitate asking serious questions. I do want you to have fun here, just don't spam or intentionally try to piss people off.

a question here:


rep points:

when will I see my reppoint level move?


thanks

BoboTheRagingHobo
11-14-2004, 09:20 AM
I know when I was getting repped early on it would take a few hours or another person to rep me to actually see the points increase. So I am not sure my self, and was wondering that when it first started. Were any of their reputation points on a negative side as well? They could have repped you to a negative and then other people repped you higher?

Also people with a higher reputation points give more reputation points then people with low amounts, and vice versa for the negative reputation points.

And yes you start out at 10.

but could a mod please explain the system to me?


ever since this rep thing started, I'm still at 10 points, got rep'd on several times, and in the thread that I've been rep'd in , it still says, your reputation on this post is even .



is there something wrong with my account?, :confused:

It's possible that people have been positively repping you, then other people have been nagetively repping you. So it will appear in your User CP that you've been repped multiple times for a post, but it will actually be an even score.

I'll rep you for the post just above (the one that starts "thanks to Bobo"). See what happens.

They should be right there. You probably can't see them yet, though, because people haven't repped you for any specific posts, so you only have the starting number of 10 points so far. So go to some threads and post well, and those points should be rolling in. :thumb:
