10.09.09 | I remember Sputnik when getting 20 responses on a news article was a big deal. These new users are growing like weeds - which I don't mind, it's just interesting. |

10.09.09 | @bf: i don't mind the numbers i more have an issue with them being a hundred different copies of the same person. plus they all bite hard on trolls which is annoying as fuck. |

10.09.09 | some sites deny people from getting accounts, perhaps sputnik should do the same, because the noobs here are getting annoying. |

10.09.09 | who the fuck are you? |

10.09.09 | How would you actually go about filtering people? |

10.09.09 | @Shade: Nothing wrong with that, though I am a metalhead I have some indie binges on occasion |
Captain North
10.09.09 | Ahh, the horrid n00b plague. Every site ever bitches about this. And then a handful of the newbies stick around and get to bitch about it themselves. |

10.09.09 | im an obvious troll |
Deviant1769
10.09.09 | My filtering comment was asking how could you set up a way to deny
people from obtaining an account etc?
@Bassr0ck: Yeah, i've only been here about a month actually haha
Gotta start somewhere though |
Bassr0ck
10.09.09 | I remember when the forums were connected to mxtabs... lol |
Chewie
10.09.09 | "My filtering comment was asking how could you set up a way to deny people from obtaining an account etc?"
by not letting anyone get accounts. |
Bassr0ck
10.09.09 | why do all you assholes think it's cool to not let new people in? It would get stale as fuck if we didn't let new people in. Same old shit fuckers talking about the same old shitty bands. sweet. |
combustion07
10.09.09 | New music= new shit to talk about...
I'm cool with new users but some of them are just people who make one post defending a band that they are fanboys of and then never signing on again
And then there are always the people who refuse to check out new music
Some new users are alright though |
Chewie
10.09.09 | or not letting noobs who know nothing about music in and leaving it to a community of intelligent people to discuss. I'm pretty hypocritical in saying this though since I was a hard-core n00b when I joined. I'm not saying completely lock the site out, but just ban n00bs who are ruining the site. |

Do you like Thrice?
Do you like Brand New?
No? gtfo. |
Bassr0ck
10.09.09 | So let people defend Nickleback and Likin Park. Who the FUCK cares. We all think the music we listen to is the best, and that everyone should listen to it. We have it in our heads that we have a superior musical taste than everyone new that comes on to this site claiming that Bring Me The Horizon is the best metal band. That's what they fucking like. Let them like it. I'm sure all you assholes liked shit music before you came here. |
cirq
10.09.09 | Everyone knows me |
combustion07
10.09.09 | You say let them enjoy it and than you shit on our original taste? I actually still listen to some of the stuff before I joined (Kyuss, Sepultura) It's cool if you enjoy something but if you try to shove it down peoples throats who don't like it it is a different story. I don't really bash new users though unless they do so to me |
Captain North
10.09.09 | This site is basically built off people bashing others music views. |
combustion07
10.09.09 | lol pretty much, I remember joining and constantly being flamed my first month |
Cesar21
10.09.09 | soon the who knows who and who is more recognizable thing will be settled... those who were here during the Fall of 2008 might know what I'm referring to. |
ziroth
10.09.09 | It's not bashing, it's simply negative reinforcement. |

I'm sorry man, but that was possibly on of the stupidest and most arrogant comments i've ever heard in my life. What, you just happen to be the exception? I'm sure when you joined up there was probably a bunch of people who weren't happy with all the new users as well, they just might not have made a list about it.
I admit, i've only been here about a month but if you look at my profile i've already hit over 200 comments and rated over 300 albums here. And looking at a previous comment on this thread I love Opeth,Thrice and because of this site i've heard of Brand New and so far i'm digging it. So I guess I fit the sputnik criteria??
Sure I haven't posted any reviews yet but a man's gotta work too! But I am working on it.
I agree that there does seem to be an abundance of new users on here, i've only been here a month and even I can tell that, but every site is gonna be like that. How you deal with them is what makes the difference, if you don't feed the trolls you'll never have to worry for too long.
I'm not trying to call you out chewie, because you never used my name or directly spoke to me, but given the fact i've been here a short amount of time, your noob comment directly relates to me. |
combustion07
10.10.09 | It took me a year to write a review lol
I've been here a total of 3 years and only written 24 reviews |
Captain North
10.10.09 | This is my third year and I'm yet to write a good review. I've written like 5 or something, a few got deleted when the database crashed. I've got one half decent. |
combustion07
10.10.09 | I'm still not very confident about mine, I gotta write another soon it's been awhile |
Deviant1769
10.10.09 | Haha, I just re read what I said, sounded like a mad rant.
Oh well. I understand the anger to certain new users but there are some who could be on this site for the long haul.
@combustion: Haven't seen you posting in the same threads as me for awhile lol |
combustion07
10.10.09 | lol I haven't seen you commenting much lately, unless your mainy commenting on lists... I normally don't look at too many lists |

10.10.09 | I have nothing against new users as long as they stick around and don't just sign on once, neg a well written review that conflicts with their opinion and rate a bunch of albums in a hyperbolic scatter-gun manner. |

Yeah, I've been here for like 3 years now, same account, minimal people pissed at me (mostly newer users anyway), and got 2 reviews up and am working on a third. Yay for me.
Oh, did the site crash reset the join date? Cause I've been here a hell of a lot longer than 08. |
