You should do an albums poll, it will satisfy those who didn't like the results in the alltime poll.

I really care more about individual tracks than albums. I mean, I have zero emotional investment in listening to an entire hair metal album and can probably only remember the details of half a dozen or so from when I listened as a kid. If someone else wants to do it, that's fine though.

i'm trying to think of any repeated behavior on ilx as pathetic as some dude's 'my heavens! a poll!' on nearly every damn poll on this board. does it ever occur to you that if you and yr dork bros hadn't spent so many years slowly killing every kind of ilm thread you do enjoy (ie 'let's sift thru what remains of dead genres like hip-hop and alt-rock') that you might get more out of the eighteen hours a day you spend on ilx? why the fuck should ag care that you hate him and his threads? and why do the mods tolerate a poster stalking and repeatedly harrassing another poster for no reason like this? good to know you'll keep it off 'this thread' though, maybe try to keep it off this board while you're at it. don't you have kids for fucks sake?
― balls, Monday, 29 October 2012 00:33 (eleven years ago) link
Not really seeing the "stalking" personally, and right now balls you seem way more heated up than some dude. But I am one of the "dork bros" who loves all the alt-rock threads so YMMV may vary. I do personally think that since there DOES exist the "order and timing" thread then running other ballot polls in parallel, while not really a violation of any particular rule or principle, does seem kinda annoying, like the collective generally is on board with the "order and timing" system to avoid there being eighty polls at once. I don't mind it once in a while for a big cross-artist, "genre" type poll, personally - that's not too much for me to keep up with. But I get the idea of wanting to rein it in a little and I don't think that makes somebody "pathetic."

just curious why continued harrassment of ag by some dude and others is ok but 'clutter' on ilm (defined as 'o no there are threads on ilm i'm not interested in!') is an urgent matter that must be attended to
― balls, Monday, 29 October 2012 00:42 (eleven years ago) link
1) not seeing the harassment
2) issue is not clutter but: a) consensus in the public realm of ILX as a commons b) sense shared by some (perhaps not all!) posters that the value of ballot polls is for people who are interested in that music but don't know anything about it, therefore it is nice to be able to actually keep up with the threads to get new recommended listening (as i have for example from the hard rock spotify playlist, so that i can diversify my tastes beyond their apparently unacceptable bounds) c) civility vs. taking something that was a sincere, i think mild procedural suggestion on my part and turning up the knob to flaming/yelling/Making It Personal, yes some dude called out AG by name but i think your response is super way out of proportion
― Doctor Casino, Monday, 29 October 2012 00:46 (eleven years ago) link
consensus in the public realm of ILX as a commons - this has never existed btw beyond obv 'dealing w/ openly racist posts/posters' or 'posters hacking the coding of the board' and tbh there wasn't even a consensus in those cases
