Opeth Board - Did I Miss Something?

[lizard]

since the Opeth board got shut down, all its refugees are flooding into other boards.

did you guys discuss this already and I missed it?

 

[NAD]

I saw discussion of it in some other thread, the overrated albums one maybe?

I didn't see the reason though, why'd it get shut down? Oh and if someone shows me proof that the "best band since Slipknot" ad is authentic, I'll totally go and buy some Opeth stickers. You can't make stuff like that up!

 

[cthulufhtagn]

yup, my overrated bands thread got hijacked

 

[lizard]

some of them have migrated over to the Nevermore board and Karen pimpslapped them with this post:

Wasn't the Opeth forum the gayest forum on the UM?
No wonder the band closed it.
They should have done it long time ago.

*politely directs all the Opeth fans refugees to the Children Of Bodom forum*

In case anyone was really wondering, the board was shut down due to the new album leaking early. The plan is to re-open the forum after the album's release date at the end of August. It was on Blabbermouth.

 

[lizard]

well as I saw somewhere, closing the board isn't going to prevent leaks...the P2P genie is out of the lamp, and he ain't gettin back in.

 

[Dark One]

Oh yeah totally. Closing the forum down and believing that it would make a difference is just asinine.

Proves Roadrunner is gay . Enough said..

 

[lizard]

so is Roadrunner behind this? it doesn't seem to me that taking away a board from what are allegedly your most loyal fans is productive in any way.

Did the board close for Deliverance and Damnation (who sure leaked MONTHS before the release date) ?

 

[Reign in Acai]

I didnt even realize it was shut down. Hopefully it remains that way.

So the board is still open and the new album hasn't leaked early? And the plan is to close down the forum after the album's release date? K.

No, but Roadrunner wasn't in charge then and the board had yet to become entirely unreadable at that point...closing down forums and leaking albums are equally shitty.

 

[dorian gray]

bah...who cares? did any of you visit the opeth forum in recent months? terrible.

 

[Demilich]

anyone else check out the leak of the album? it sounds alright, i'm on the first song, and it actually sounds... brace yourselves... a little DIFFERENT! (not too much)

 

[MFJ]

Oh shit.. didn't know there was a whole leak yet. I'll have to check it out (and yes, I'm such a closet Opeth fanboi that I'll buy it too, you vunts).

 

[Demilich]

me too, 100% sure

i'll upload something in approximately however many seconds it takes to upload something

Opeth - some song off the new album (it says "Beneath the Mire" but I do believe the guy fucked up on the names/order, 'cause I'm listening to "Baying of the Hounds right now and he's singing the line "beneath the deep mire..." etc, etc. in the chorus)
