Another oldschool appreciation thread....

[Hawk]

the music taste is also similar, other oldschool threads will like newer or weirder stuff rather than real oldschool.

Thats true. That has been commented on here before and there was agreement that this all happends from a solid old school perspective. Or Old School feel, whatever that may be. For instance discussing Fear Factory is definatly NOT old School. I like them a lot but a FF discussion does not belong here on the Old School forum imho. Thats why I did not participate in that tread, even though I really like that band. Duh, seems like I am discussing them now, right?

Hey. I'm the one that posted that Fear Factory thread. I agree with you that it doesn't belong here. I'm sorry, but I'd just prefer to talk about things with more educated/intelligent people rather than getting narrow minded, arrogant pricks pretending to know anything about music and abusing you for your taste in music.

Anyways. Sorry, I'll remember to only discuss old school from now on

No worries

i hang out here and in the Seriously Off Topic. I also hit a lot of the band forums but they don't usually move too fast. SOT isn't that bad and a lot of fake accounts are made so anyone new to that forum has to take a bit of a beating to weed out the fake accounts. It can be a lot of fun over there too but I don't learn too much or pick up on any metal I missed when I was younger like I do here.

I think the difference is that people around here usually don´t act or react disrespectful towards others, even when they disagree. And instead of telling other people that they are idiots/retards because they listen to (insert band name here), they´d rather explain in detail why they like a certain band or album so much. I mean, I couldn´t imagine people like e.g. Bryant or Hawk commenting on other people´s musical tastes with "constructive" and "eloquent" (Attention! Sarcasm ahead!) remarks like "You don´t get worse than that.", "This band/album is total crap!" or "Your taste in music sucks."
It´s much more about pointing out the positive aspects of the bands/albums you like instead of primitive bashing of bands or of people who listen to bands you dislike. At least this is my impression. (Now you may prove me wrong and reveal all your fake accounts which you use to indulge in some serious primitive bashing business!)

I think it sums up everything about this board

Forget about my answer in the Fozzy thread though

Thanks for what you said Burkhard.

Damn I am way behind in responding to people. I have been a bit busy lately.
