Cliques and nepotism. That's what all this comes down to.

It all makes sense now...

Thanks for confirming that you're all about nepotism and cliques.
No prob, if you have any other questions just let us know.

It all comes back to the popular kids with you doesn't it? Precisely how many lockers have you been shoved into?

Actually, Vets, the mods just did a great service here by getting other members off the hook by taking your crap instead. Yeah, the mods were a lot more (ahem) blunt with their criticisms a few years ago so you should appreciate the maturity that they've been showing you today.

But, hey, you're a big man because you can stand up to those big bad mods, right?

Maturity?! Let’s see what I’ve witnessed here today…

Gaslighting
Projecting
Deflecting
Goading
Nepotism
Clique mentality

And this is all because of personal observations about humans and their music tastes (as opposed to instigating an attack on any specific person here).

Seriously, if the conduct of others here is what you constitute as ‘maturity’, Lord help you…

Not to mention sensitivity


Anyway, all most of us were saying anyway was that everyone has a right to their own musical tastes, including you. It's just that some of us were sensing you were putting people down because certain tastes differed from yours and now everything is out of control.

So, just take a deep breath, okay? We're really not the enemy.

If we wanted to set an example to keep those things off of the forum, you would've been banned already.

This whining is getting boring, do you have any other spicy music takes?

But that’s the thing, I wasn’t specifically putting anyone down here in my opinions. If I was I could completely understand.

If any of my observations touched a raw nerve, that’s not my problem. As I’ve stated before, if you have genuine faith in your music tastes, whatever a detractor says should be water off a duck’s back.

IRL, I’ve spent my entire life being very open to everyone’s music tastes and rarely having that reciprocated. So, excuse me if I have been forced to reach certain unpleasant conclusions about most humans, which many of the posts here today have simply confirmed.

If I said "Mongolians are yak-****ing savages" I think it would be reasonable for even non-Mongolians to call me a ****head.
