:lol: Probably a good idea. You'll cut the amount of threads by at least 300. Sometimes I wonder if anybody has anything new to say about them, you know? Everybody thinks they're awesome, awesome, awesome. "Portnoy's so good! Petrucci's the best guitarist alive!" etc. etc. It'd be interesting to see which directions an official thread would go in.

hahahahahaha well said! Rep points for you! I'll start it up and well see where it goes. If it sucks I'll delete it hahaha.

hahahah check it out!

Heh, I suggested making an Official Dream Theater Thread several pages back...but at least someone finally did it. Now hopefully we won't see a million of these **** DT threads floating around.

Yea, it only seemed like a good idea when I thought of it tho! haha j/k.

Hey guys, list down all the winners of all the recent competitions for me. I am going to create a master list. If you can remember the date the contest ended it would be great too. We definiatly need to archive it fromt he one PIGS ran to current.

Runner Up: Opeth


Ultimate Classic Rock Band - Led Zeppelin
Runner Up: Pink Floyd

Ultimate Modern Rock Band: ???

Favourite Song: ???

Favourite Album: ???

Yours Sincerely,
Riva

Can I say something? I just want to express how happy I am that we have such kickarse mods running this forum. I know I will sound like I am brown-nosing, but it needs to be said.

When I first started here, we only had SFK and Jelle, and Nacho actually posted here occasionally :eek: Then a short time later, Chris became the third mod of R&M, and now we have Bartender as another. The forum when I first started was pretty **** good, but still had quite a few idiot posters, quite a few spam threads and not as much good discussion as we do now.

You may have noticed that as the time has gone by, there has been fewer and fewer threads reported in here, and much more positive suggestions and such. I know I have been here a short time, but I think this forum has gone from a good forum to a great one, quite possibly the best on MX. And it really comes back to the mods, and some excellent regular users; Pigs, Gilmour (The Poster Formerly Known As KingofDudes), Rock Not Roll, BoboTheRagingHobo, and of course Medopalis (who should be a mod by now :naughty: ).

So, good on you guys. Thanks for making this a really awesome place for me to come when I'm relaxing at home, or avoiding study at uni. I've made some good friends here, and I hope to be here for a lot longer. Good stuff! :thumb:

One. Two. Three.

The great mods have certainly help cut down on the idiot posters since I have been here...when I first joined there was tons of idiots. Also with the help of good posters makes this a great forum now with pretty much good dicussion all the time. The combination of the two have made this such a better forum, and one of the most popular as well.

Band name thread...

Turning into a political arguement, watch it if it goes any farther.

Stagefrightken can you please tell me why you banned *NevermindTheBallots* for making the Game Thread.

That thread has always been around in the punk forum, its not spam!

^^^^^^ The rules for R&M is different than the ones in the Punk Forum.... NevermindTheBallots was actually banned from the punk forum. I am helping mod the punk forum until the new mod gets there. I am basically letting the users run it over there and they said to nail ya.....

can you please ban nevermindtheballots, he hasnt done anything wrong and is a good contributer to the punk forum

I assume you meant UNban. :)

Since B0nz0 is gone from mx I need a mod to do this.

Could a mod edit the first post in the classic rock thread to say that this is now just a classic rock discussion thread. It woulod help because we get people quoting the first post alot and saying how classic rock is coming back and all, and it disturbs the conversation.

So umm, yeah.

done many a times before

[QUOTE=Stagefrightken]No, you broke the rules. You have 8 days left. When you are unbanned if you continue your idiocy I'll ban you for 30 days. 1 more time and I'll perm ban you. Dont come back to R&M is your going to post idiotic statements and prove that you have the mentality of a 10 year old.[/QUOTE]
Thanks, I was thinking that I was banned perm. I can wait eight more days and I promise not to post any form of spam in the R&M section again. My Apologies(Nirvana rocks) :D

Isn't it obvious? :naughty:

im just wondering when does the R+M best song nomination end?

Done, check it out. If ya want it changed lemme know. Hey Rivas, thanks for refreshing my memory. Id give ya rep points but I already did!

any one heard the new Linkin Park jz thingy what does everyone think of it

Hey SFK, dont know if you will have the time/patience, but the beloved Tool thread's first page has suffered from the random symbol disease, and could do with tidying up, as its the first thing most people will read on there. Plus its ruining a good track review :upset:

Just a minor niggle, not essential. :thumb:

Kind of a dumb and pointless thread.

Kill this thread too. It has been around a LOT longer then it should have and its only function now is to take up space.

The old top 100 R&M album list, if anyone wants to see it again

Ah, Spastic Ink at #97.

:cool:

That list was done before the Alt/Indie forum existed, right? :p

[QUOTE=Stagefrightken]Done, check it out. If ya want it changed lemme know. Hey Rivas, thanks for refreshing my memory. Id give ya rep points but I already did![/QUOTE]

:), maybe just add "don't quote the first page, just join in the discussion on the last page". And put it in 7 font and bold :mad: stupid n00bs might not understand if it;s not frickin' huge.

Also, JPJrulestheworld and Livewired need a temp banning. This spam is getting out of hand. It runins the classic rock discussion and makes the thread look all useless and spammy. Same with the offical led zeppelin thread.

2 day bans for each, please.

Please ban me!!(not)

Your both banned for 1 week. I will not tolerate this garbage as well. I should prune about 500 post off each of your post counts. Your lucky Im in a good mood. When you get unbanned, if you post spam crap again your banned for a month. Do it again and I'll delete your user.

I want you to be good users here, not idiotic little 10 year olds making goofy posts.

If you create another user and spam, I'll instantly delete your users. I don't want to see either of you back in here for 7 days, when you do come back an apology to the other forum members would be nice.
