By T**T , did you mean TWIT or TWAT?!!?!

HeeeeeeeM!! Soorry about that !!!

Subgenres are a bother can be useful in describing music especially on such a site! I do not see it causing MAJOR problems in  the Archives.

But I know what you mean about these polls about anything that is best of anything! I get sick of them but also ignore them! All newcomers have a tendency to do those , because they still ignore such a thread has been done some thousands of time.

The best answer we can give is to start threads that elevate the level of this forum! This must be done with people with a good prog background.

I'm sorry KE9 iof you are refering to my Van Halen, the reason I posted it on the main page was to see if it would be moved, as the Iron Maiden/Queen Polls werent! It has been moved so Im confused( but Ive PMed Maani to ask why)

Quote " VAN HALEN, IRON MAIDEN, METALLICA!!!!!"

I reccomend that if you dont like discussions about prog metal or any sub genre then dont join in them. Leave them for those who do follow the subgenres. A lot of younger contributors like the prog metal scene. I dont, but I'm middle aged. So, if you want prog to be celebrated into the future, you will have to accept that artists like DreamTheater and RADIOHEAD!!! are pretty much where the genre is nowadays, especially from a younger listerners perspective.
