What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse
i liked the list. including my least favorite Opeth album still meant it actually had an Opeth album, so that's good.

Exactly - our recommendations for anyone new browsing the forum. There's no reason why they couldn't start a new thread or join in another existing thread about those releases in order to discuss them. The intent of the list (as I saw it) was to provide evidence that RC'ers can come up with a consensus "must have" list in order to provide a service to non-regular viewers. It would stand the test of time for all of us battle hardened RC metal warriors and, of course, would be subject to additions down the road. I was actually quite proud of it.

So we'd want multiple other threads to discuss the contents of the sticky closed thread?
Wow.

So don't re-sticky it then. If I had known you were simply going to pull it down after a few weeks, I never would've given two rats' shits about any of the comments posted in the thread. I thought it was a consensus list that was already discussed in *gasp* multiple other threads and that the result was a product that was going to stand on its own. Whatever.

"the result was a product that was going to stand on its own"?
Serious? Jason, it was just a poll for shits and giggles. Opinions change as do forum browsers, so the thread inherently cannot be a constant. We had it stuck there for weeks!
The point being, if we did the exact same polls today (with the same bands), the results would be different so the list really isn't definitive until the end of time or anything.
The funny thing is, we're talking about a thread!
It hasn't even been deleted, just unstuck!

And apparently this is how it was viewed by most. That being the case, no problem - I simply didn't realize that until now.

Now it's one star for sure.

I agree with both of you. Everything in the forum is for shits and giggles. That said, I thought it made for a cool intro to RC.JayKeeley said:

Remember
People who seemed to take it pretty seriously before - taking time to count and recount votes, bicker over inclusions/exclusions, etc. - made it seem like much more than that.
