 Topic: Which Obsession is the Most Annoying
Posted: June 26 2006 at 22:21 |
Some of these drive me and other members nuts. I don't like to be negative. Hell, I don't even like to make polls, but I really want to know, what annoys you the most.
I vote for DT polls. Dream Theater is my favorite band, and I think the ridiculous polls lowers their reputation. Why should Dream Theater be treated like a culture obsession and not as musicians
*rant over
Mike Patton annoys me too.  |

Either DT polls or Mike Patton, the use of n00b gets old after a while too though

In order from most annoying to least annoying: Bern > Mike Patton > DT Polls / Polls about DT polls > Neo Prog > n00bs. Last.fm and ULKing are cool.

You missed a blatant choice out and Bern and my own pet pieve! OWLS! Jeez guys, stop it with the O RLY? stuff and stop posting Owls!
It was funny for a miniscule amount of time, but now, well it's old, just like Ansen's underpants!

What the..."Neo-Prog?"
Observe how Vince left out a "Dream Theater" option. I sense a bias.

It's totally out of control. Considering how many new members
select some permutation of "dream theater" as their nick, not
surprising I suppose. Of course, they arrive and think it's
either clever or novel to compare their gods to some lesser, mortal
band. 
I don't know how it can be handled - would the admins put a moratorium on DT polls?

It can't...  only good sense may prevail. However, there's always a newbie to start an "original" thread about DT.

DT polls are just a passing fad... remember when everyone wanted everyone to rate their collections? Just give it a week or two and it will all die down (except my Marillion related polls will never die!).
