Because it is similar and one "negative" poll like this is surely enough?

Be happy, I would had closed both.
This is a Progressive Rock site, our mission is to research and promote the genre, of course we're not machines trained to like everything, but we must at least respect the work of the members in charge of a determined sub-genre who break their backs for free just to read nobody likes the music they are working in.
What's the point to sacrifice our free time, the time we could expend with our families working in sub-genres that apparently nobody likes?
When somebody talks about Rap or Hip Ho, we find a lot of "wide minded" members who call us names for believing this two genres don't match the beauty and copmplexity of Prog, but when a group of us messes with OUR OWN GENRES, nobody has a nice word for Neo Prog, a genre without which Prog wouuld had never survived the 80's or Prog Metal that has recruited a large number of new members that learned to love all the other faces of Prog.
Neo Prog may not be as perfect FOR MY TASTE as Symphonic, but I would be an idiot if I wasn't able to recognize the excellent achievements of groups as Marillion, Pendragon or Magenta, I may not like Prog Metal as much as Prog Folk but to deny the excellent skills of most Prog Metal musicians woiuld be a complete sign of ignorance.
I may not like some bands, but to easily say without any shame that I don't like a whole sub-genre is closing my ears to a whole bunch of great bands basred only in prejudices.
Said it once and will say it again, the worst enemy of Prog is the Prog fan.

Mine shouldn't have been closed. Forums are for discussions. Let us
discuss things. Also, I think it's stupid to close mine and then bring
this one back from the dead. It's retarded that you would close a
thread simply because you've seen a similar one in the past. People
change their minds sometimes and the votes might've been different.
Also, I was simply trying to see some reasons why people dislike
certain genres. For shame.

Instead of "stupid" you could use another word, ok? And also instead of starting a negative poll, you should have started a positive one.
Both polls add nothing to PA and it was my mistake to let it open. I'll fix things!

Wow, certainly can't speak your mind on here I guess. You need to stop
acting like such a control freak. My thread wasn't negative in any way.
It was simply a way of gathering opinions on the various genres of
Prog. I was trying to start a discussion. The thread itself wasn't
negative. In fact, there wasn't a single negative comment in it as far
as I'm concerned -- just opinions! If somebody says something truly
negative, go after that person if you really feel the need to, but
don't blame it on the thread.

Some threads just lend themselves to negativity, as yours could have done, and as there was a similar thread.......
Maybe the wrong thread was closed, but its Christmas Day. Admin have atough enough job without having to read througnthem all to decide which to close!

They should probably worry about closing perfectly decent threads a little less then.

"worst/least favorute" threads are negative from beginning and never start a good discussion. They either turn into flame wars or turn into a 5-page collection of posts doing nothing but offending each other. Just look through this thread: i'm going to have to go with zeuhl. wow. how uninspired can you get...?
Third Ear Band I found thoroughly unlistenable; therefore it has to be indo-prog. bag of sh*te.
Electronic Prog...
Prog metal...
I can't stand electronic prog
Some of the cheesy neo prog I hear on prog radio stations. I think the only satanic bands are those crazy Scandinavian black metal
bands that go around burning churches and killing babies...
I cant stand Krautrock...
makes me want to kill myself... 
Neo. Seems like I've that genre's material somewhere else... Too clone-like  etc.............. |
