Hah, plex has so many accounts it's impossible to ban them all. Plus, he uses a proxy.

is there a possibility to send a private message to a MX-User through MX? not email.
some forum have the option of personal messages, why not MX?

Nope because of badwidth (sp?)

MBS 08-23-2006 06:07 PM

bandwidth but if you really want to talk someone in private, get their instant messaging service.

Who can I contact about FGs? I'd like to write one on New Wave Of American Heavy Metal (which isn't as much a genre as a movement), Nu-Metal, Melodic Death, or just Death Metal in general.

If Steerpike's running it, then does anyone know his AIM or email?

Prince Charming 08-24-2006 04:55 PM

Yes. Alex's AIM= DownToTheDevil last I checked

Med is in charge of the Featured Artists - there really was nobody to cover the FGs, but thankfully Steerpike picked it up.

Prince Charming 08-24-2006 04:58 PM

Aye Mods! How about we reopen that dicussion of elitism?

Jom 08-24-2006 05:00 PM

To be honest, it went from discussion of elitism to people taking sides and bitching at each other. That kind of crap drags the community down as a whole.

It's not healthy discussion to have, especially when people are being bitchy with one another. It's not good for the forum as a whole.

Actually the conversation went from elitism to bitching at each other to Pat Methany and kelly Clarkson. It was actually semi-civil towards the end.

2nd day back and already theres the retarded bull**** of MX going on...


What i don't like is having stuffed down my throat "You don't have to like them but at least respect them and be civil". I mean what I say and I say what I mean.

It was some discussion that I don't recall seeing once before.

Oh well.

Look, I don't care for the Black Metal genre as much as the next shmuck, but getting on its fan's asses by asking if they think anybody takes them seriously isn't needed. I've never had a problem with any of them, really, because they haven't tried to cause problems for the forum, so I don't want any dissention going on that isn't needed. R&M doesn't need another bitchfit, or Dargon returning to pretend to troll, or whatever.

repcak 08-24-2006 05:11 PM

i'm offline for some hours and then this.

when i read the first post by ICB it was one of the best things i've read recently on MX. too many ppl thinks that when they listen to band x they are more true.. wow.
but afterwards it started to be a spamfest .. lol.

c'mon guys; you are pissed off cause of some immuture elitist and you behave the same. ignore them.

Indeed. It's just a war. An epic war.

As for ignoring. We've got an ignore feature on the forum! I prefer not to ignore anyone, so I can flame them if I wish. :)

repcak 08-24-2006 05:20 PM

i meant ignoring in the form of not responding, not the forum-feature ;)

This might be very off-topic and unneccessary, but I haven't been too up-to-date with MXLand recently, what happened to your modship?

Thanks, man...I hoped it didn't suck. :p I didn't mean for the whole thing to become a flame-war...but it just gets under my skin how shallow, narrow-minded and ignorant some people could be. Maybe I was being ignorant as well, but oh well. I tried to contribute something to the forum, rather than spam. Looks like I failed.

Silenius 08-24-2006 07:09 PM

[QUOTE]Shallow, narrow-minded and ignorant some people could be.[/QUOTE] The thing is, those people are just like whoever they're insulting. Both sides aren't serious. I doubt in the MX room 20% of everything said is meant seriously.

In a nutshell, I pissed off mx.

At the time I felt that he didn't give a shi[font=verdana]t[/font] about the forums (because of the hackings and overall apathetic vibe at the time) and was becoming obsessed with expanding his Sputnikmusic empire.

So I swore like an idiot and said he should just shut down the forums if he's just going to let the hackers and other crappy stuff that went on continue without doing anything about it. I wrote a lot of questionable adjectives.

It wasn't pleasant or the smartest thing to do, but I was able to get Wintermute added as a co-admin, seeing as how DBJ doesn't do jack around here anymore. And then some other stuff.

I might be back if they need me, but for now, 'sources' tell me that there are still hurt feelings so I'm basically serving my probation and promising not to swear so much when I think he's not paying attention to the forums.

It's not like I need to anymore, though, because he's starting to take care of the forums for a bit since then.

Shred Danson 08-24-2006 08:59 PM

Wow, drama drama drama.

There's something wrong with my browser, I'm using Firefox with the No Script thing and now when I look at MX there is no avators, and this is what the main page looks like, nothing taking me to the last post or anything. [url]http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/7897/picture2jr1.png[/url] And this is the only website it does that for (excluding the review section of the site, it does it their too). Any suggestions.

Well. I don't use any anti goon plug ins, but do you have images off, perhaps in USERCP?
