Another Bleeding Through thread. If I'm not mistaken we had one a little while ago.

did one of the mods make that official? he's got over 1000 posts, so surely he knows the rules by now

yeah im confused with that one too

Nope, he doesnt have permission

so is it going to be closed?

Yeah. That or its name changes to "The Berzerker". No offical threads.

The problem with these threads are that they dont have a point. They are just "lol i like dis banded wat do u think of tehm?" Everyone is like "yeah they are cool/suck" then the thread dies. The Pink Floyd thread actually had a direction of discussion before it became official.

The Pink Floyd thread still has a purpose. But Pink Floyd was talked of enough before that it got its own thread. The Berzerker does not need/deserve an offical thread.

tr00 and the "official" title still isnt needed. But im saying if people want to have an official thread so bad, make a thread, have a real topic to start off with(not this "wat is ur favorite song" crap), and let it grow.


In reality, the only official threads that are needed are the tool, slipknot, and Metallica threads.

Yeah. Like The Beatles thread which could become an offical thread soon ;)

The "Official" is there to prevent over made threads. Pink Floyd threads aren't made everyday, like Metallica would be if there was no Official thread.

don't forget the iron maiden official thread, and the opeth one

The thing is, there arent a lot of Iron Maiden or Opeth threads. The point of an Official Thread is to cut down on rampant threads.

oh i see what your saying, fair enough

Whats your dream gear.

Could a mod please close the nominations thread after 12 noon on New Years day? Depending on where you are of course :)

Some four hours late, I've closed it.

Ken, I have a question about rule # 26. I was banned in the pit and rather unfairly as it was 14 days for a bit of spam. Does me posting in rock and metal on a different account break that rule? Keeping in mind that my ban was fro mthe pit and not rock and metal.

That's pretty unfair, I spammed a lot and made a spam thread and I only got 10, I doesn't see why you deserve 14.

Nah, dude your a great poster in R&M. If you get banned in R&M I really want you to respect the rules. Alot of people don't like R&M cus of all the rules. Most people don't understand our community, this is one of the few places where generally everyone respects each other. The rules are harsh to nail those people who don't respect our community.

If ya pull crazy stunts in the pit, unless its a blatant horrible spam thing, it stays in the pit.
