[Bartender]

So, today I found out that my sister doesn't know who Lando Calrissian is.

Do any of you have losers in your families?

[munky_magik]

My mum is a bit of a loser. My bro is uber-cool and my dad is pretty cool as well :)

Lando Carlissian is a Star Wars character.

[munky_magik]

the only black man in star wars, one time owner of the millenium falcon and a true swindler

[jpj]

He turned in Han Solo :angry:

Dirty bastard..

[munky_magik]

han solo was teh man :cool:

although that deal was to keep the Empire outta Bespin forever. Sounds like a good deal to me :p

[Bartender]

Yeah, and he redeemed himself in the end.

Yea, I just remember the first time i saw that movie when I was like 8 and I remember wanting to stab Lando in the face.

Morning, shorto.

NP Theory in Practice - The Psychomantum Litany

I'm in the mood to rent a game for my PS2. Preferably one I haven't played before, though if all else fails I'll get Red Dead Revolver or Spiderman 2. Anyway, do any of you know of a game with a really good (preferably in-depth) combat system?

haha, if you want a good game to check out get goldeneye : rogue agent. It was a suprise to me! Or if your a geek like me, and own a gamecube, get tales of symphonia!

Are you allowed to vote for mods in the R+M top osters thing. (im wondering if i can vote for you and superpeer?) Dont jpj, your already on there.

I woke up at 8:00 this morning and got so little sleep, so im bored as hell.

I figured id come here now since in the afternoon, this place is so crowded my browser cant load it :ERROR website not responding: <- that thing pisses me off so much its unbelievable

I never liked Gamecube that much, ive always been into Xbox, nut i own neither since i use all my money at the music store.

Halo's really the only game i like. Me and my friends were gonna hook up 3 Xboxs tonight and play 12 player, but i might not go since most of the others arent going either

[Distant Echoes]

not really. Drums and percussion boards (if you didnt know what D&P meant) has some smart guys there, and the noobs arnt even that annoying.

But if you can gain respect in the pit, you can conquer all goals in life. I swear, everything you say in there has to be replied with
a)flame
b)usually lame joke
c)something sexual like being raped or having sex
d)two word comments

I have never got 1 intelegent response in the pit

R&M is one of the stupidest places here, after The Pit, and maybe on a par with Punk. I love it here, and there's a bunch of cool people, but there's also a whole lot of morons. Alt/Indie is like heaven in comparison, as is Jazz and, for the most part, Other.

Alt/Indie has so many better discussions than in R&M. They dont have to worry about morons entering a thread and saying "lol this band sux lol".

so...

whats up?

NP: The Doors - The End

[Mekkalayakay]

There are probably around 50 decent posters in R&M, and around 15-20 of those post semi-frequently.. :(

Bartender's right, but I wouldn't say that this forum is as stupid as the punk forum.

NP: Devin Townsend - Funeral

[Arucard]

I used to only post in the punk forum, and as soon as they took the community thread away BAM, downhill it went. I think one of the reason the punk forum is so bad, is because of total ignoarnce of what punk actually is. About 50% of people in there are like LiNk 182 Rox My BoSeRx Gu#ys1, which ruins it for the people who actually enjoy the scene and the music.

But i like to count myself among the 50 decent posters :)

[Distant Echoes]

I dont think i can call my self a decent poster anymore after getting involved in this thread

[Arucard]

haha. This thread keeps R+M alive.

[Badmoon]

Alt/Indie has so many better discussions than in R&M. They dont have to worry about morons entering a thread and saying "lol this band sux lol".

Well, I believe the regulars there think it's a lot better than it really is. There tons of random crap lists that pop up all the time.

I find the board boring most the time.

[Distant Echoes]

It does keep this place running... as well as the classic rock thread.

The only threat to these forums (i think) is the endless Official band threads and "What do you think of this band" threads.

Sometimes i feel like all i should do is post in the classic rock thread and just sign off the internet for another day.

[jpj]

I'm popping bubble wrap :)

NP: Black Sabbath-N.I.B.

[Mekkalayakay]

I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to go through with it; Once I reach the big 10 grand in posts, I'm going to ask DBJ to reset them. All of them, just like Zerokewl/Non Sequitur did.

The reasons:

1. I've got an internet paranoia freak dad, (I would be too) and if I saw my son with 10,000 posts on a message board on the internet, I'd think there was seriously something wrong. So I am constantly doing other things while my dad is in this room, or when he walks by. I hide my posts, and I'm getting tired of it. :(

2. It's a constant reminder of how much time I've wasted away at this forum. Every once in a while, it gets to me, and I leave for a couple weeks, and that's not something I want to do. I just want to post less frequently (I'm going to post almost nothing in the Pit anymore. It's a shithole anyway)

But first, I want to reach 10,000, which could possibly happen today.

You may call me crazy and stupid, and my respect (yes, people with high post counts have more respect) will be gone, but I really want to do it.


And after typing this all up, I'm starting to think it's a bad idea. At least I have 90+ posts to think about it :-/

:(

[RNR]

That's a good idea. But maybe just get him to set it back 8000 or so. You joined a pretty long time ago.

[Arucard]

Yeh, but you still have 90 posts to think with. New Avatar! It took so long to re-size it, what happened to starred members getting bigger avatars?

[Bartender]

*crazy plan*

I don't see the point, to be honest, though it's not like I'll try and stop you if you want to have it done.

Distant Echoes - what was your previous account?

[Arucard]

I don't see the point, to be honest, though it's not like I'll try and stop you if you want to have it done.

Distant Echoes - what was your previous account?

The only reason is, to get a half decent album cover/picture, you need about 100 by 100, and its gay cause theyre not even that big...

[Mekkalayakay]

Does your dad know your mx name? I know my parents don't, and if they did they wouldn't even look at my post count.

I don't think you have to ask permission, not that that has to stop you. I wouldn't imagine Spiral Architect asked permission from Sabbath, though.

[Bartender]

/feels gay.

Heh, sorry. I think that idea just kinda got dropped, in favour of stars (which is actually a built-in feature of vBulletin, which mx just had to activate). I think.

[Dancin' Man]

long post about resetting post count


Just have them set it to 1000 or something.

[Mekkalayakay]

Does your dad know your mx name? I know my parents don't, and if they did they wouldn't even look at my post count.

I'm quite sure he does/he's seen me post, and it isn't like my name is hard to forget (spelling, yes it's hard, but the name really sticks out)


Just have them set it to 1000 or something.


Yeah, if I do it, I will try to get DBJ to give me a 1000-2000 post count. I just realized that starting at zero would be really weird... and I don't think I'd like it.

[guitrguy]

I'm quite sure he does/he's seen me post, and it isn't like my name is hard to forget (spelling, yes it's hard, but the name really sticks out)
True.

There is a reason why i put Mek instead of Mekkalayakay on my list. :lol:

[guitrguy]

Yeah, if I do it, I will try to get DBJ to give me a 1000-2000 post count. I just realized that starting at zero would be really weird... and I don't think I'd like it.
You would lose your stars!!!

[Mekkalayakay]

How many posts do you have to have? 1500?


Even if it did take them away, it wouldn't matter that much to me. I'd still have all my rep points, and once I reached the right number of posts, I'd be right back on top again.

[Bartender]

1,000 for stars, I think.

I still don't really see the point, though. Changing your postcount won't change that you still have made 10,000+ posts.

[Mekkalayakay]

Yeah, I guess it doesn't work too well for that, but it does work for the "omg im paranoid about my dad" thing.

By the way, I don't know if you'd know this or not, but can DBJ unmerge accounts?

Before my accounts got merged, I had about 2500, and after, I had almost 7000-8000 :-/


If he unmerged my accounts to where I only had the posts I've made on Mekkalayakay, I'd have anywhere from 4000-6000, and I'd be happier with that.

The point: I just don't like seeing a giant post count next to my name. I don't know why.

[Bartender]

I've no idea whether unmerging accounts can be done, but you could go and ask about it in Site (in Ask the Mods).

Anyway, since she doesn't seem about to answer, does anyone know who Distant Echoes was?

[jpj]

I thought someone said The Mighty Zep, but I'm not sure.

[Mekkalayakay]

I've no idea whether unmerging accounts can be done, but you could go and ask about it in Site (in Ask the Mods).

I'll just IM DBJ sometime about it. Thanks though.

I dont think you can unmerge. For example I had a name change from KingofDudes to Gilmour and the name KingofDudes didnt exist anymore.

I have nothing to say, because you covered it all! Great post man, very well thought out...

I also agree with you on all ways to give extreme metal a chance, but I started out on melodic death metal because I was clueless about death metal, and didn't know that it existed at the time.

[Mekkalayakay]

How I started out:

*DBJ IM's me

"Wahahah man, listen to Death- Without Judgement man, that **** is intense, wahaha. Hoglan is a beast man JEEZ! Insert Capital Letters, Wahaha."

Me: /downloads

*DBJ logs off

Me: /listens :eek: This **** is freaky sounding...

/doesn't listen to death metal for about 2-3 months
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eventually, I get curious. I asked Big69 to get me into some stuff, and that's when I first started with Cryptopsy. He gave me a few songs, I thought "sounds like **** now, but maybe it'll be worth it" so then I downloaded the whole None So Vile album. After a couple weeks, I loved it to death.


The only other person I know of that started out on brutal stuff is Bartender. :-/ I guess it's a bit harder, but I wouldn't know, I still have a hard time getting into some types of melodic death.

Where in the hell is that guy teaching music theory at in Oregon!?



Tell me now, or you die! I live in Oregon, I will find him muahahahaha. :evil:

Wewt. I am going to check out that university just for that now...

Thanks for the info man!

[Mekkalayakay]

That would be incredibly sad if he was in California (I think that's where he does a lot of his recording) recording with Gordian Knot, or any other project, the day you went there.

/prays it won't happen.


I'm in Idaho, so maybe if he's still working there when the time comes for me to check out colleges, I'll give him a visit. :cool:

You still have a good three years left thought before college though don't ya?

Sean Malone, eh.

Can I come visit you, Bobo?

Also, why did I think you lived in Norway?

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Sure, why not? But I am not paying for your ticket. And better bring some booze. :p


I don't know why you thought I lived in Norway. I would love to live in Norway though, and also the fact that I am part Norwegian and Swedish is cool as well.

[Bartender]

Mmm.. prawns for breakfast.

Sean Malone's awesome, anyway. Maybe it was your being part Norwegian that confused me.

[LordDargon]

Someone gave me a rep saying "nobody likes CKY or heartagrams, idiot."

:confused:

He must have mistaken me with someone else... I've seen a user called "CKY_heartagram" going around.

Oh well, it only took 9 points anyways.

EDIT: I got into death metal through Nile... the instant I heard the opening chord on The Blessed Dead, I was hooked.

It's about 7 degrees Farenhiet here, but the wind chill is -15.

It's snowing right now. I think the wind chill is like single digits.

[Broken Arrow]

Can you translate that into celsius?

[jpj]

Can you translate that into celsius?
No he can't because Canada sucks :angry:




:p

[Woodstock]

Can you translate that into celsius?
Farenheit's freezing point is 32 degrees, Celsius is 0 degrees.

So, it's colder here.

[Broken Arrow]

Celsius is just so much more easier.

*gets shot by the americans*

*gets shot by the americans*
Yeah, the metric system and Celsius are much easier to read and are just more logical. But it would be hard for me to switch since I grew up with it.

What's wierd is one of the English kings started the system we use(i think), but the English use the metric system.

Well i might get into the top 40 R+M posters. Rock on.

[LordDargon]

Is Zakath supposed to be a more irritable version of Maddox or something? He just cleaned me out because I asked a mod to insert a space in my name. :rolleyes:

[Arucard]

Zakkath de-reps for no reason.
So i wouldnt be suprised he did that to you.

[LordDargon]

Actually, he didn't touch my reps, just gave me a verbal beating. I'm surprised that guy has four stars.

On a more positive note, I have 1590 reps. Time for handing out reps to all the people on the page.

[Arucard]

Lol, i have 1274, so me too!

I've given out to much rep in the last 24 hours :(

I need to say this now. The punk forum SUCKS. I used to only post in there, but omg, i went back its so bad. How many noob spammers. You thought people who were like HiM ROX DUDeZ! were bad. Belive me.

[Distant Echoes]

Ive seen alot of posters that give out too much rep. When you do that, do you get your privelage back the next day or is it banned for a longer time?

[jpj]

You get it back the next day.

Then rep for you!

So I was just shoveling, and with the windchill it is now -23degrees C.:eek:

And im going to Vegas right after Christmas! Its gonna be so sweet. After that i might not be able to afford my amp

I'm going to florida for two weeks though, during christmas and new years, which kinda sucks in a way cause I won't be able to be with friends and my girlfriend :(

And I won't have access to mx

[jpj]

I think I only get 11 :(

[superpeer]

I have to study during the Christmas Holidays. :mad:

[Arucard]

I have to go into music writing over drive... :(
Since we lost our bassist, we can now play metal instead of pop-punk, but it means i have to spend hours on songs, not 10 minutes.

[RNR]

Hehe, no just play brutal death metal.

[Arucard]

Not my style. Ive been writing alot of Power, but im no shredder so the riffs arent very complex.

[DonMancini]

Woah! Mine's 2 weeks.
Yeah I'm pretty lucky to have that much of a break :)

Oh and the other thing that sucks is that I get back from florida January 5th, and my girlfriend leaves to go to the dominican republic the 13th, so I'll only have like 8 days of vacation to see her :(

[Dancin' Man]

My vacation officially starts on thursday before Christmas. I've been sick though and may get to start it last Friday.

[RNR]

Not my style. Ive been writing alot of Power, but im no shredder so the riffs arent very complex.
eh, just steal some riffs from Iron Maiden and play them with a wah wah pedal. As for the solos, just wank on 2 strings.

Or look at Iced Earth. Not very many extremely fast solos but they're one of the best power metal bands.

[jpj]

My last day of school is supposed to be on Tuesday, but we might get a cancellation :)

[Riva]

My Christmas holidays go for 3 months. :cool:

Yup, i was just listening to some nightwish, and they arent to complex either. Im pretty pleased with the **** i wrote, but can somebody reccomend me a good scale to write power riffs in.

[jpj]

What bands should I start with for power metal?

[guitrguy]

Children of Bodom

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

Children of Bodom


123.


And Dragonforce.

[Mekkalayakay]

Blind Guardian
Iced Earth
Nevermore
Edguy
Falconer
Jag Panzer
Sonata Arctica
Sentenced
Symphorce
Lost Horizon
Some of my favorites.

[RNR]

Blind Guardian and Iced Earth + their two.

And Helloween if you want. The big 5 of power metalsz.

edit: and betsey's if you want...

[jpj]

Yea I like Dragonforce, zep sent me one of their songs....has he posted lately?

Thanks peoples I'll be downloading some of that :thumb:

[guitrguy]

123.


And Dragonforce.
Lyrics are kinda cheesy, but the guitar work is sweet.

[Mekkalayakay]

edit: and betsey's if you want... even though he's a transexual motivationist and nobody wants that **** music...

u watch urself fag. ur ded 2 me.

[RNR]

Hehe. ;)

So basicly, Iced Earth, Dragonforce, Blind Guardian, COB and mekalalklakka's are optional as some fo them aren't the biggest names in powermetal and that's a lot to get into all at once.

[guitrguy]

CoB wise my first power metal band, and they got me wanting more.

[jpj]

I downloaded som CoB, and at first as was thinking "man what have I been missing", then the guy started singing and I was all ewwww :(

[guitrguy]

You will get used to it.

/Goes gets CoB cd.

[RNR]

Haha, yeah. When I listen to them I basicly just don't pay attention to the singing at all. They would be a great instrumental band.

[BoboTheRagingHobo]

If you start to like Children Of Bodom, check out Norther...

They are like them, but minus the 80's like synths. They still have synth's, but not that style.

I wouldn't say they are 80's style. Van Halen had the 80's style going on.

[jpj]

I like the synths so far, I hope I get used to the vocals because the music is awesome.

[Arucard]

What bands should I start with for power metal?

My faves are (ive been listening to it for four weeks max) :

DragonForce
CoB
Iced Earth
NightWish (re-discovered today)
Angra
Blind Gaurdian

None of those are too extreme.

[RNR]

Van Halen and synths do not mix well :(

[Arucard]

I thought 1984 was there best album bar van halen 1. :confused:

[Riva]

What bands should I start with for power metal?

Rhapsody
DragonForce
CoB
Melechesh
Iced Earth
Symphony X
Stratovarius

and who could forget MANOWAR!?!

The Kings Of Metal.

Posers leave the hall!

[Mekkalayakay]

CoB is a terrible band to start power metal with... They are a great band, but they sound nothing like real, typical, power metal.

Melechesh

Maybe their lyrics are a bit fantasy-like, but aren't they more black/death?

[superpeer]

Power Metal again? Jeez.

[Mekkalayakay]

What now? Is that Belgia country or whatever against Power metal? Those dumb elitists.

[RNR]

This is getting a little too dragons and kings for me.

[superpeer]

I don't like a lot of Power Metal.

Just Rhapsody and CoB, maybe Hammerfall. Most of it annoys me.
