Just because I said it excludes certain artists does not mean I think ALL artists that deserve to get in the Hall should be inducted in the same year.

Please don't make statements that I allegedly said when I know damn well I did not say it

Well if you're going to support your side in a debate/argument, don't let your statement lead to false accusations. That's just poor debate imo.

No whats poor debating is drawing assumptions from statements I made and accusing me of making statements based off your false assumptions that I did not make.

Like I said, be clearer on your points and false accusations won't be made.

I was pretty clear with my points regarding the statement you posted.

You should not falsely make a claim that I said something that I clearly did not say.

Just because you might disagree with my opinion does not give you the right to boldly make a claim that I said something that I clearly did not say.

So now you're making the assumption that I disagreed with your statement without me actually saying that I disagreed with your statement. See the problem?

No because I never said that you specifically made that statement.

It would have been a problem if I had said, "Ki you said that you disagreed with my statement". I did not do that.

I simply expressed an opinion about how you derived to your assumption which I am technically entitled to. I am entitled to my opinion.

To be fair, the logic that you used regarding the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame boils down to the fact that they've inducted non-rock acts into the hall before, so they have no credibility. This could easily be read as "let's induct them all and leave no room for redemption on the part of RNRHOF to induct rock acts." Why induct a rock act over a disco act? Those stupid and biased bastards. I can't believe how hateful they are towards disco, those Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame inductors.

If it's such a ridiculously biased form of the media (and rightfully so, since it focuses on an ENTIRELY different genre of music), then why do you keep pointing to that as your fact? Is it because you're afraid to be wrong? Had Urban provided me the facts that he attempted to beat into your skull multiple times I would have retracted my original statement because it's okay to change your opinion based on new facts. Not everybody can know everything about music, you and I are no different.

Tl;dr it's time to cut the bull****, Soulflower.

That is not the logic I used. What I said was that they have no credibility because they are biased in terms of who they choose to induct. It is clearly not an exclusive rock oriented organization anymore because they have inducted non rock acts but they insist on snubbing certain acts over others based on their own agenda or political criteria.

No it could not.

I am not posting it as a fact. I am using it as an example to support why Disco is underrated. I have used other examples as well not just this one.

I think you should take your own advice.

So because they abandoned their main theme of rock 'n' roll in the past they should ignore it in the future? I'm trying really hard to make your vague points clearer, but I doubt that'll ever happen.
