I get joy out of hearing old pop songs that no one likes because its "mainstream". People's music choice is too much based on what others think.

Also...you all need to get the fugg over 'what emo is' just listen to the freaking music you like. Im with riseagainstrocks when saying I used to come here to discuss bands I liked, but the few times I do visit a week, it is some kid thats bitching about what 'real emo' is. Aside form the poor moderation part im beginning to agree with riseagainstrocks when saying this place is sinking fast. I guess you'll just see me around alot less, because everyday my homepage, MusicBanter pops up, and I dont sign in, because I know it will all be the same thing, some ****head spamming, some 14 year old girl posting about how much they love/hate GC, some kid who thinks hes the first to discover 'real emo'. Its ridiculous.

I accendently click this but im totally with Thrice on this one ive quit posting in the emo forum i like some emo but not much and ive quit viewing htis forum cause i hardly ever see a post on actual music anymore its always "thoughts on emo" or "i am tierd of emo kids who dont know what emo is..." or **** along the same line and to tell the truth i can hardly stand music banter you got a bunch of morons posting about random **** that know one cares bout i could care less if I get banned from this place you know why? Cause of **** like this my stance on music classification its someones opinion i gettin sick of people wining thier are few people who have opinions on emo that arent a idiot about it i eman riseagainstrocks isnt bitchin about real emo neithers thrice heres why thier not idiots who are arrogant so frankly this is why the emo forum pisses me off

Misfit,

Wow. Being new to these forums I've been wary to call attention to this. Didn't want to look like some idiot who doesn't know forums for **** coming in and bad mouthing the place. Since it's brought up I can't say how much I agree Thrice and how bothered I've been by it. This is the one place I've found that I can discuss the one and only style of music I enjoy. In the short time I've been here, I've seen most of what these forums have to offer and it's arguing (although some hide it in the guise of debating). Add on top of that the "what is emo" discussions over and over and over. Get's old fast. Hell, look at this topic as a good indicator of when topics are bad and get even worse. It's not all doom and gloom. I've seen some discussions that were heading in the right direction. I've found at least 10 good bands I've never heard of because of this place.

Can't topics be locked, people warned, and other people banned? How about a sticky warning new comers the right way to act when coming here and if you don't listen your topic could be locked/deleted and you could get banned?

Just suggestions. I wouldn't like to see this place get even worse and then again it would be ****ing great if we could have some real music discussions.

How that for getting serious?

I'm tired of threads about this...

If you don't like the thread don't read or contribute to it. It does get boring going over the same crap, but to some people it isn't. They may not have been listening to the genre and might find it useful finding out about bands they've never heard of. Everybodys got to start somewhere.

I havent been on much due to overwhelming school activities and personal stuff, but thats over now, and I plan on being on more often. Also, I will be taking matter into my own hands a bit more and deleting things I dont like...such as the countless repetitive posts and the negative users.
