LOL, YEH, THIS IS A RANT GUYS AND GIRLS, DONT MIND IT
Reading most of the posts on this thread made me sad, you know.
You know why I joined this forum? I had been reading all the posts and stuff on here for about a year, but I never actually signed up, untill I read a post by Admin in the now removed 'Newbies Say Hi' forum, where he said something about all of the communities opinions, however different, as valued as the last. That hit me, you know? I've been part of online communities before - I do, like, internet roleplaying, if anyone knows what that is... Its all literary stuff, based on writing skill. And those places were rife, fucking rife, with elitism, genocide, self-obsession... It really took me to find out that there was a community without that bullshit. So I signed up, right away!
And you know, when Bomber and Cherry had that argument with Hemps on that thread I made, I was fuckin' terrified, because I thought it might have jeoprodised that ideal, you know? Because, its one of the rules here that people arent allowed to attack other peoples opinions- Admin and the Moderators keep that rule in tact beautifully, actually, from what I've seen... And its a rule I really like. And I was worried that that would jeoprodise that, that there'd be that snarling, back-stabbing bullshit that haunts most online communities.
I mean, generally, from the stuff I read here, everyone bloody well likes eachother. Its great!
But, you know, it pisses me off that people would so openly assault one another here, both on their views of another genere/scene, whatever, and at someone who's part of that genere/scene. That doesnt do anything but get people pissed off at eachother and it starts shit. To me, that doesn't belong here, you know?
Uh....
Anyway....
I used to like Rites of Spring, actually, whenever they called it 'Emotive Hardcore', or 'Emotional Punk', 'cause it was like... 'Hardcore Punk' but... Emotional/Emotive.
Ooo-eer.
