I don't think http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=388983 should have been closed as it's not really just a "Post your band" thread and the posts in it wouldn't fit into that sort thread.

Yeah I had fun reading that thread. Some of the songs were kinda bad though :lol:. I was going to write something for it BUT I GUESS NOT NOW.

Hey Nick when you said this...

You aren't to bash them in thread and you aren't allowed to bash them outside the forum. If you read the rules, there is no bashing, you moron.

Enjoy your ban.

does that mean I can't make fun of anti-flag with my friends off the forum (not that we do)? Now that's what I call nazi modding! The rules are starting to stretch into our personal lives.

**THIS IS JUST AN IDEA, DONT MINDLESSLY BASH ME IF YOU DISLIKE IT**
I just have a quick question. Since the name of the Community Thread changes often to various different things, Sean brought up a point. He was talking about the name changes and if they change every month. This got me thinking, what if we the community, vote on the Community Threads name. This would occur every month and the process would be simple. A thread would be started and people would suggest 1 and only 1 new name. At the end of the day the thread would be closed and a new thread would be created to have the top 5 names reccomended (this means any stupid unapropreat names will not count). And that poll will be set up for the day and the name with the most votes will be the new name.

Although its a good idea, it's just too much work for the result. When I think the thread needs a change, or user express a want for a change I usually ask them what they want pick the best from there, and may end up using one of the older ones later on. The changes don't even happen that reguarly, only when the current name gets stale.

I think it's kind of dumb that Coheneran got banned for defending himself in a thread started for the sole purpose of bashing him.

I admit he was kind of crossing the line in some of his posts. I assume he was at least warned about it a couple times?

I didn't make the thread to bash him. I have actually never seen the guy post that I recall. I just wanted him to have a chance to be able to defend himself instead of being bashed.

I suggested a one week ban before. I know he's active outside of punk, but I hadn't had a chance to see any contributions he made, whether they be good or bad. While in punk though, he argued seemingly with no end, and tried to preach his beliefs. He was just all-around annoying.

I think 2 or 3 weeks is a bit much. He didn't exactly break rules, like said before, but he was still an "annoying little squirrel".

We had one a long time ago, and it turned into a hate fest between users. Stuff like Veganism and Straight Edge aren't discussed well in the forums because everyone has their opinions and no one is changing and it just breeds more and more hate.

Nick, the Mucho-Punk list isn't dead. It's been going on for a while, but there's been no need to update the thread so I didn't. But I hadn't sent an album in nearly a fortnight and I felt I needed to tell people why. I know I could have just sent out an explanatory email to the list, but I thought that seeing as there've been so many new members in the Punk forum lately, I might as well restart the thread so they can add themselves. I went back through all the pages but I couldn't find the thread, so I had to make a new one. But people are obviously still interested, as they added themselves to it and sent me/promised to send me albums.

Ninja EDIT: So I think you should unlock the thread.

You should've bumped the other one, it would've been better then making a new thread.

And if people really worried about where it meant, they would've bumped it themselves or emailed you about it.

I said, I tried to find the older one, but it won't go back more than six pages, and it isn't in those six pages. I also remember some rule against bumping threads that have gone past the third page.

What does it matter if it was me or other people who bumped it? At least four other people care, and that was just in the first six hours. Pretty please unlock it?:)
