in the future everyone will be famous for 15 ILX sub-boards

so much meta the earth tips on its axis

oh look we had this entire fuckin conversation last september

Rolling Metal Thread 2010

haha this is kewl i'm all for anything that keeps Algerian Goalkeeper off my site new answers tbh

That's rather uncalled for, isn't it?

the notion of "I love [genre]" boards is really stupid imo, I have no idea if somebody's actually proposing such a thing but on ILM phases come and go where this or that genre is "trending" or whatever

wait this was actually done? lol what a stupid idea

I'll continue posting any metal threads I start to ILM, fuck this shit with a pickaxe imo

people take a deep breath this is a testing only phase if peeps dont post to it it will vanish quietly into the night sheesh

lol sorry jjj

is there a "hide board" option somewhere in preferences 'cause I wanna make sure I don't actually post to this board, because I really vociferously-yet-in-good-humor oppose this board

But the question isn't about whether people are interested in the types of thread - just because people might want a rolling doom thread doesn't mean they want or need a dedicated metal board. That's the only thing measuring number of posts will tell you, listening to people's opinions in places such as here will give you a better idea of how popular the board concept actually is.

take a deep breath.

the thing is is that most of the metal board posters have already had this discussion and said "no, that's silly & there is no need to take our kind of music and separate it from the broader category of music," so it's a little "well, we're trying it anyway, never mind that we already had this discussion" to just go ahead and do it - and now, people have to go to extra lengths to not post to threads they might be interested in so as to avoid offering support to I Love Metal, which (and this is not! not!! OMG HOW HORRIBLE, I'm just discussing bcz this is a discussion borad OK) is kind of "in order to not have this thing you said you didn't want, you're going to have to stop using Site New Answers or go fix your prefs." Which to me it seems like the people who wanted the board had the opportunity to make their case, didn't, and went ahead and just put it in anyway.

It's not actually a big deal though let me be clear about that lest anybody say "you are makin a big deal!" ok!

might as well call it "poseur board 2k11"

i am kinda of the try it and see if it works mind wrt new boards, so this is pretty much my fault, so sorry for shaking shit up - there have been some peeps that have approached me about not feeling comfortable on the rolling thread because its super promo oriented and for the non-journos i can see where that would be kinda a high bar for contribution so i figured what the hell. this board is def not written in stone, and if i dont get on this thread to respond much today im not ignoring yall, i am at work.

yeah tbh I'm totally cool with it as long as it doesn't mean "if you start a metal thread on ILM it will be moved to I Love Metal" - if all the metal posters go "yeah, prefer new board" then I'm sure I can adjust tbh

open thread creation to all imo

open board creation to all imo, rather

also if peeps can point me to the discussion of this on the metal thread that would help because i was prev unaware of it tbh

lol metal

metal promos r serious business according to a friend of mine who writes abt metal & has access to label private torrent trackers & is so neurotic abt everything being watermarked & traceable to him -- u guys watch out

jjj my link to rolling metal 2010 20 posts ago has that discussion

we talked about this then, i just fail to see why ppl don't start new threads about specific bands or whatever if they don't want to double back to something on the rolling thread

Yeah, I totally get the appeal of rolling threads but they shouldn't exist to the exclusion of threads about specific bands/records.

Also, it may well be just me, but I actively prefer being a bit 'damn, there are too many threads on subject x' to removing all trace of subject x from a generalist music board. I enjoyed the metal poll, I occasionally pop in to other trü kvlt threads to have a look at what you're talking about, but quite frequently I ignore metal threads. So how is a separate board going to help me? I'm not going to shut it off, nor am I going to be encouraged to participate. I'll just see even more metal threads appearing. Which you could do as part of a wider community instead of being all sectarian. But, you know, if (for example) goons are pissed off about threads on music they don't like appearing on ILM, they should move somewhere that is a specialist board. And in return, if metallers are gonna whinge about goon threads being all over the place, they shouldn't form a hostile annexe, but just bugger off completely.

where is i love dadrock

i love late 80's college rock with chick singers

I Love Songs with a fast dancey/electroish 4/4 beat with someone talking over it (but not really rapping)

I Love Gay Dad

i love all those ministry side projects where they used different vocalists

i love mix tapes

mixed tapes

and to think of all the hoops i had to jump through to get an 'i love footy' board

or was that 'i love hoops'

xp - and we are all very appreciative of your efforts.

you're all too old for the internet

a bunch of olds with back pains

can we have an i love being old sub-board?

http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/NewAnswersControllerServlet?boardid=207147393

open board creation to all imo, rather

we used to have that, and yea, those were the days of glory, when men could take up irons and forge boards by the sweat of their brows -- and yea, in those days when titans strode the earth, one such titan did arise and create the board "Chairman Meow: Best Cat Name?"

morbs and aimless should have a talk show

would watch

I don't love much but I do love cats

post cat names itt

xp - that's not the same! I love being old would cover such topics as how expensive everything is now, things they don't make like they used to, and those kids who won't get off my lawn!

milquetoast metal

skipped a lot of msgs here but basically if u dont listen to metal or w/e how could this possibly affect u, also probably stfu about it? the rolling metal thread really isnt the same as autogoon etc, ie 7 dudes talking about w/e its like 700 guys posting about what promo cds they got and it sucked, it needed to be split, dont really see HOW PEOPLE ARE POSSIBLY AFFECTED AT ALL by threads that they do not read? something i've enevr understood about ilx, but then again i don't look at ILM or SNA all day, i just look at whatever threads i like

like wtf is wrong with yall that dont do this

"i fuckin hate all these threads about x" < this has never been a problem i have ever had

otoh - i think one of the bracket food poll threads led to me learning about the popularity of organic farming in Minnesota, so i shouldn't be hating on bracket polls that much.

oh ha i just was trying to figure out what thread that was!

I wish the poll function had never been invented :(

i think it involved berries, and i was trying to find a logical explanation for why you hated something as awesome as berries.

well duh they are fruit and therefore terrible

god didnt create vitamin supplements so you assholes could all deny his glory and eat fruits and vegetables ffs

anyway, that information came in useful at a later date when i was chatting up a cute midwestern boy from some touring band.

btw i fuckin hate the metal polls

but i ignore them iirc

you don't remember if you ignore them?

lol

just sometimes she needs to be reminded to ignore them

obviously by stating that i ignore them i am aware that i ignore them

ty sarahel APU

my solution to the rolling-every-subgenre thread is: I'll post to rolling metal. if there's a band that warrants its own thread, I'll post to that or start it. if some subgenre thread has some sort of special reason to be blowing up (like if Gorgoroth made another masterpiece like Ad Majorem I can see the black metal thread getting pretty lit up) then I can imagine posting to it but otherwise I don't see the point, it seems like trainspotting to me and I am not into that shit. I don't vigorously oppose subgenre threads but I do think they're pointless, rolling metal is fun & has flow whereas separate-bin-for-everything just does not interest me in the slightest. this is the internet and it's 2011, "things move fast" is actually OK by me

Dude I'm actually super-psyched about space-metal

whiney as someone who starts so many threads about yourself it seems weird that you would object to people starting threads about actual things

or maybe not weird idk

how hard would it be to code a ignore-thread function into ILX? seems like it'd be pretty easy to modify the bookmark code

I mean, so that j0rdan can stop getting trackpaditis

oh god, you didn't....

you just suggested coding a feature

relax should take five mins

lol cad

I still remember when forks said he was gonna disable sb for a few days

you'd all better hope he did it in the last few days

how many times can u post "wow, i cant wait to hear that in a month when it comes out!!!" and still consider it actual participation in a thread

^^^ Useful participation in the thread.

Anyway it's gone now so this is done with.
