I can understand your need for taking break from the prog polls, but on the other hand, if you want something with more edge, just have a look at the album classifying in Paul's polls. Wink

As I already said, I remember Svetonio from PE, but I don't recall him ever "promoting" anything up. I know there's one thread on another forum with his Bandcamp recommendations, run by Svetonio himself; he is a sole poster. Obviously, a lot of people are familiar with that thread, considering it's got a pretty healthy 25 million views. I still don't know much about Svetonio, though. Definitely I know about him less than you, since you always "spot" him in every new member who is active at the forum.

Quote This is not a fantastic thing but more like being treated like children if you ask me. If PE is so great then why bother being here at all and just stay over there? My guess is that it's just a little boring and Meh.

It does get a bit edgy round here for sure but that is because people are not perfect. What you have described is a sci-fi version of hell

Fine of course and (who would I be anyway trying to stifle anyone's freedom) but I'm not enjoying this playing one off against another vibe at all. Of course they will have some differences in tone and type of discussion etc. The big thing here though for me is the database. This gives PA substance for me and grounds everything. 
In general I don't do any chat only forums anymore. In fact this is the only forum on the net I visit per se. I used to do 5 or more forums twenty years ago inc a football discussion forum, and at least 3 forums linked to the artist (Genesis, IQ and Greg Lake) but they got very boring in the end. I didn't find anything particularly interesting about PE but in any case I'm not going to just repeat the same things over there that I say here. It just seems pointless.

In terms of core music discussion, I think so too. However, they also have a off topic active forum for discussing stuff like films and non prog stuff. The reply UI is slightly better there since it supports keyboard shortcuts for stuff like Bold, Italic. However, they give a more serious vibe which necessarily is not better.

According to the site's rules against politics discussion, the moderation team locks every thread that has some potential to turn into an ideological drama, in advance, before the shіt hits the fan. I think that's great cause it keeps the place chill and fun, like a casual chat with a bunch of fellow music nerd buddies. 💕

LOLLOLLOLClapClapClap

we (hardly me alone) observe a few days once you are spotted , then we wait until you promote ex-yugo bands (you never fail to)... But it's generally your texts, your syntax, your tone that give you away.
BTW, your different locations declared always cracks us up.LOL

And in this case, taking his defence is not the smartest thing to do. We hadn't spotted this incarnation before.

But we are impressed by your tenacity to keep coming back to haunt both sites... even if your VPN makes it easy.
"Promoting yugo-bands"? Really? Don't tell me that you count as "promoting" a few YouTube videos on different threads. Okay, I see. Anyone who posts a video by an "ex-yugo-band" is Svetonio, mmmm…

But, as far as I know, your go-to forum dude Svetonio is "promoting" bands from everywhere, including the "Heart of Europe." No cap, he's been doing his thing on another forum for more than a decade now.

Relax.


Yes, David, your point was perfectly valid, and, yes, they were. I might though, in my defence, point out that I was not a vaccine denier.

I didn't take your comments as a political attack, and most certainly didn't take any offence.

A call out is when you bring negative attention and comment about another member (by name) because you have a personal problem with them. And then a thread results. I’d list an example but then I would be making a callout thread. Lol

The whole svetonio thing has become almost comical and cliche at this point. The boogie man lives!
