I understood it NOT through my statistics / probability teacher as someone would infere.

I learned it through my chemistry teacher.

Stupid lousy bitch.

[i]Dargon has been a long time contributor to R&M. His knowledge of all aspect of real metal are the stuff of legend, and he effectively causes noobs to scatter.[/i]

Dargon joined MX about 100 years ago. He resides in The Pits of Hell (MX, 2007). He has a bunch of posts on MX forums, all of which are in R&M (Dargon, 2007). He regularly contributes to a variety of threads, including as the various incarnations of the Black Metal, Any Other Death Heads?, and no other threads. This essay aims to investigate the posting habits of Dargon and determine whether he is fit for a larger avatar.

In the Report Problems/Ask Questions/Make Suggestions thread he has some posts. This implies he has done his fair share of problem reporting (Dargon, 2007). The top posters of the thread are, in general, mods, former regulars or current "top posters" (MX, 2007). This suggests that he is a "good backseat moderator".

Dargon frequently attempts to get his threads back on topic, even though nobody cares. He also shows restraint by not invading threads such as the Opeth thread, despite his deep-seating and burning hatred for the band. He was nominated for MX RMer of the month one time (MX, 2007).

In conclusion, it can be seen that Dargon is a worthwhile contributor to R&M and MX as a whole and therefore is deserving of a larger avatar, so hurry the **** up and change it you son of a bitch.

Not enough legitimate academic resources... but fuc[font=verdana]k[/font] it, here you go.

you do realize he just copy and pasted riva's essay and added in stuff about him, right

He added some lols, I don't know.

It's okay, I'm still looking forward to being called a Jew 88 times in one post.

It's like helping a rotting horse to get up on its feet.

thanks.

sooo...what the hell's the point of the "F Dethklok" thread?

politely telling people to shut the **** up about it

Well there seems to be a strong influx of really shitty bands getting some limelight on MX, and I'm not going to stand by and let a Cartoon Network band be one of them.

MUST FIGHT THE POWER.

[QUOTE=Cocaine;15349616]politely telling people to shut the **** up about it[/QUOTE]

Who cares? Is it really that big of a deal to you? If it is, I feel sorry for you ma'am.

There's no reason the thread can't exist for us to say the band/album/joke is horrible and for you and yours to say otherwise.

There's no reason we can step outside the typical I LIKE DARKTHRONE NAYONE ELSE LIKE DARKTHRONE? BURZUM BURZUM I LOVE DEATH HAVE YOU HEARD [DEMO]?!"

Good job being a bitch, masterchaos.

What Tyler said.

It really doesnt matter to me. I just dont get the point of it all. But Im down for debate and arguements.

These are discussion forums not namedropping forums. People wonder why the forums are slow lately and it's because every thread is basically an endless cycle of people seeing if others approve of their tastes. The death/black threads are the most exemplary of this, but the Daily Upload perpetuates it with people uploading albums and feeding the fire.

Then you have the 'trolls' who provide elemental tension, which thereby aggravates those not 'in the know' resulting in call-outs. Call-outs result in long-winded Dargon insults, which in turn lead to three pages of us calling Austin/Jono wiggers/jews.

Then the next stage happens. Someone will mentioned either a highly lauded or highly frowned upon release. People will then concede to the statement, occasionally name dropping a track to prove their opinion. Then they'll ask if anyone has heard a certain demo, followed by another cycle of ridiculously loose 'discussion'.

So yeah that thread is call out. It's antagonistic and that's more or less what we need.

**** you Dethklok. **** you up the ***.

I mean besides this...[quote=Yellow Rule]Don’t create a thread to bash a band. Don’t go into an established thread and mindlessly flame anyone in it/bash the band. For the difference between debate and flaming, see this [url=http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=435908]thread[/url].[/quote]
Yeah.

Whatever, Austin's flaming (Austin is flaming?) can easily incite a discussion. Easily.

I know, but there was no reason to make a second thread. Keep it in the already established thread, and, like the rules say, keep it from mindless flaming and I don't mind.

I just don't see the point on 2 threads on teh same band on the front page. Aye?

Well I did totally miss and forget about the Dethklok thread, but regardless. Best metal album ever? Seriously? I see why he made a new thread.

But it's on the front page like a few posts down =|

But yeh I'll merge the threads if you want or just leave the one closed, up to you Austin.

ftr I agree with a lot of what you're doing but rules are rules and I have to enforce em so meh.

How come i'm not allowed to post new threads?

You have to wait 24 hours to post new threadsdue to problems with spam attacks.

Take that time to review the rules please.

Hey, can I get this avatar?

Where's your abstract?

Txus has been a long time contributor to R&M. In addition to creating several threads on the topic of good music and Agalloch, he has a significant number of posts in any Agalloch-related thread. This suggests he is a good back seat moderator and a fanboy.

Txus joined MX in Feb. 2005. He resides in and old cabin(MX, 2007). He has 16.217 posts on MX forums, the vast majority of which are in R&M (MX, 2007). He regularly contributes to a variety of threads, including Folk/Viking Metal thread, the Doom thread, the new Sludge thread, the Black Metal (Joke) thread. This essay aims to investigate the posting habits of Txus and determine whether he is fit for a larger avatar, which he does, and why the **** does he likes fagalloch so much!

In the new Folk/Viking Thread he has 172 posts and in the old one he was reaching probably the 20,000. This implies he has knowledge in the great gods(Oden, 2007).

Txus is always in the big fights that occur all over MX (Black Metal thread) over the year but he is never the one who starts them or is part of any of them therefor he is a bit of a fag or a lazy guy who deserves a big avatar...once again (IDK, 2007). He has also been nominated for RMOTM several times (MX, 2007).

In conclusion, it can be seen that Txus is a worthwhile contributor to R&M and MX as a whole and therefore is deserving of a larger avatar....why does he like fagalloch?

No.

Txus: I'm disappointed in how unoriginal your essay was... because it looks kinda familiar. And, it lacks an abstract. And, IDK is not a scholarly resource. And, you don't really support your thesis :(

His reference list is also incomplete.

I didn't want to bring that up because he seemed sorry at the time, but... :o

[QUOTE=pate;15351136]Way to be an a[SIZE=2]sshole[/size].[/QUOTE]

I was thinking the same thing

It's been perfectly established that you have to write essays with abstracts. No essay, no abstract, no problem.

Oh. Well there are plenty of spatulas in various threads here that like to bring that up whenever he posts. Sorry. I'll delete my posts.

Please ban Mappy for double posting!

Thanks to whoever did my avatar change :)

Meh here we go....

I think I deserve to get a small avatar change because of my vs. Issue with Rattle. The albums I sent in were relevant and good, as well as having some pretty good descriptions. In the last month, I have sent in over 40+ albums to the DU, and have helped keep the thread movie as much as I could.

I also try to keep my posting to necessary and high quality standards, stoked conversation in many threads, as well as contributing some decently popular threads. I have also contributed 25 + bands to the review site with artwork, pictures, and track listings, and as you all know, those take some time to do.

So, allmighty mods of Sputnik, I humbly ask for an avatar to repay some of what I have put into this site.

Pt. 2

Allthough Hbp has been prancing the wooded forests of Norse Sputnik for a little over a year now, he has added much magic to the threads and conversations. He has also helped get many albums out into the mainstream of sputnik, and wholly admits he sucks horribly at abstracts, but he has put forth the effort so as to please the allmighty, super, handsome, Mod God's of this mythical land.

With powerful Burzum, Massacre, and Poison The Well reviews under his belt, Hbp works very hard in trying to improve the Sputnik archieves and reivews. His entire exsistance is dedicated to review and posting on the site.

By recruting 3 people to come to the site and join, Hbp is somewhat of a valuable asset to the sputnik community, pressuring his friends to "give their souls to sputnik".
