You're a troll, and since you're still here, it means it does work.

Threads like these really are troll magnets.
There's nothing wrong with verbalizing your opinion, but just screaming it around everywhere without any arguments to support it is not very useful and is bound to annoy people. That's what I call trolling. Anyway, I'm out of here, I've already wasted way too much time on this.
you're a fucking moron.
I've been posting actively for more than 3 years, and I lurked for like 2 years before that. how, again, am I a troll?
oh wait, it's because I'm not. you have no facts to back up your opinion that I'm a troll. look at any number of my posts from before the release of watershed.
I could sit here and tell my opinions and try to create a discussion about it, but you know what I'd be met with? pre-pubescent fanboys telling me that I'm wrong and that they're right no matter what. that's why half of the people on this forum either left, or started mocking everyone - it's fucking redundant and retarded. when the same threads have been done over and over again, and the same people answer the same questions over and over again, it's not fun to participate in a serious manner on this board anymore.
as frodo said, this is partly due to the eradication of the OT board. but it's also because as opeth gets more popular, they attract more shitstain dumbfucks who don't know how to
a) use the search function
or b) in avoidance of the search function, create worthwhile discussion.
instead, they drone on and on about the same bullshit (OMG WHT GUITRZ DO THA GUYZ USE, WHRD LOPZ GO etc etc etc) with no effort. otherwise, they will counter any worthwhile opinion, with their prepubescent fanboy bullshit, and anybody who disagrees with them should get the banhammer.

I too find this thread quite amusing. With so many of the more active, knowledgeable users leaving the forum for this very reason, this place is getting even more dull than it was before. In My Time Of Disease told me a bunch of guys were bailing, and I was afraid it would get like this. It's getting harder and harder to take this place seriously anymore...seriously.
I did bail, but I came back and started posting here again as well because it's quite hilarious seeing this forum go more and more down the shitter everyday.
there really needs to be some serious changes to this board, otherwise we're either
a) going to keep being obnoxious when a fanboy gets his panties in knots
or b) end up getting bored of trolling shitstain fanboys and leave
if option b happens, what will this board be left with? a bunch of shitstain fanboys who joined in the latter half of 08 with no opinion to differentiate themselves from the rest of the pack, but because someone disagrees with them, well - the heretic should be banned in their fanboyish opinion.
this post has gone on for too fucking long and most likely won't make a whole lot of sense but fuck it.
