Maybe we should rip off the punk forum and have a top posters poll for R&M?

It's fine with me.

that's a good idea ;)

Who would organise and run it, though?

You!


Err umm, failing that. Some rock and metal regular.

This is just...bad.

i fukin hate u

I've closed it, but not because there was anything wrong with the thread in the first place. It just degenerated into flaming pretty quickly.

Just thought, we've got Riva's poll coming up first anyway, haven't we?

this guy loves to make list threads

When exactly is Riva going to start his poll?

after christmas

After Christmas. Probably after New Year's as well. :thumb:

It would be awesome if we could organize a top 100 R&M posters deal.


So either we do it right this instant, or wait until...Two weeks after Riva gets done, which could be quite a while.


If you aren't going to do it until after New Year's, why not do the top 100 R&Mers before? That gives us around three weeks for the top 100 R&Mers. That's plenty of time.


edit: Hardest part: Finding the person to do it...


I'm definately thinking about it. :-/ I don't know. That's a whole shi[b][i][/b][/i]tload of time.

[i]maybe[/i] :p


If I do end up doing it, I probably won't go beyond #100, like Humor did. I'd just go to #100, and then put in Honorable Mentions (basically the rest of the people that didn't make it)

Sounds like a plan.

I just wasn't running the Albums poll till after New Year's, due to this time being the family/party/drunk time. :)

Is 100 feasible? Maybe a lower number?

[QUOTE=Bartender]Is 100 feasible? Maybe a lower number?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I dont think 100 will be easy to reach

I was thinking the same. I'm thinking an appropriate number (if you are comparing us to the Pit's size) would be 45.


I don't think we can go much lower, but we will if we have to.

And I don't think we should go any higher than 50, actually. Otherwords you've got random people you've never heard of that make the list.

So, we should make it 50?

That would be a good number to set it to. And Mekka is the organiser?

For now, yes. I have once week of school left, then I'm off for christmas break for two weeks.

I'll let you know if I can't do it. Maybe we should have a somebody for a back up to do it?



And 50 is fine with me.

I can help with a top R&M MXer's type of thing if you need help.

With the size of this forum, I don't think it will be too much of a problem.

I'll let you know though if it's too much work/You can be the back up if I can't do it.

This person is just dumb...

Alright then. :)

I will try to start this either this upcoming Friday, or the following Monday. Friday will be easiest, but there might be a time issue involved...

We'll see.

The last two were basically flame fests anyway.

Closed.

I added a rule, #24. Everyone read it and pass it on. This isnt The Pit and Im not gonna tolerate people calling each other childish racial, sexual, and idiotic names. Plain and simple, ya do it, 10 day ban. Plus, I'll have fun -reppin the dogsheet out of ya! 12-12-04 at 12:12 EST. I see a post against rule #24 after this time your nailed...

Other than that! Sups people!

In the rules, it says to do an FA you need to e-mail [B]Medolapis[/B]. Might wanna change that. :)

The ultimate Modern Rock Band poll is next, it says, but I'd rather not start until I'm unbanned, since it means I can't edit posts. When does the ban stop, please?

Why do I have three stars? I'm just curious...I've only seen maybe two other people with three stars. It seems strange and I thought maybe you could answer it for me, SK.


EDIT: Bartender's been dealing with this question from me for weeks. If he starts rolling his eyes like "Oh :rolleyes: , Ripper, it's not a big f-ing deal..." I apologize. At this point it's just a certain curiosity than what it was at first: "Awwww...I only have three stars....what did I do wrong to not get four?! Am I JUST NOT COOL ENOUGH???!!!" etc. Sorry about asking again.

Anyway, some people have speculated that it's because I've been banned before getting stars and after the whole rep thing was introduced, so it's like a punishment. Is that true?

Iai, why'd you get banned?

Yea, email Medopalis about the FA stuff, he is in charge of that, its his baby. I believe the 3 star thing is a result of a ban. Im not sure about the time limit before you are eligable for 4 stars. I also believe the time frame can be customized. I think basically it works like this. You get banned 2 times or more you are unable to achieve 4 stars until you have been ban free for 6 months. Im not sure if this is the system that applies here but on other boards I have moderated at this is similiar to how it worked.

Gotcha. I'll be good, I swear.......

Thanks for the help.

EDIT: [SIZE=1]It IS because I'm not cool enough. Curses![/SIZE]

[QUOTE=Medopalis]Just a suggestion, but it might be an idea to wait until the new year...it's just that traffic around here might fall a bit until after Christmas and The New Year, although I guess it might go up again as everyone's on holiday.

*realises this post is going nowhere fast*[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I noticed that, and after rolling back through this thread a bit I noticed Riva and Mekka have both been talking about doing polls, so it's no biggie for me to wait until they're finished.

[QUOTE=Ripper22]Iai, why'd you get banned?[/QUOTE]
I posted a joke in a spam thread, and everyone in it got banned.

The same reason as you, then. :)
