^ For instance: how can one tell whether a question is personal or not just from another person's behavior?

you seem to be taking this KC topic(excuse me for my language) up the ass. The KC questions seems to be personal hence its effecting your behavior. Can I ask you something????

Someone just answer the question that I want to ask??? Maybe you'll answer it, why is that KC is so revered on this site but yet seem to lose in mostly all the polls???

I would guess they lose in polls because they are a lot less accessible than some other popular prog acts like Genesis, Yes, JT, Floyd, Rush, etc. But the reason they are so revered is because their influence, innovation, and overall importance to music is unquestionable. It's the same reason I would say bands like Genesis, Rush, and Pink Floyd tend to be really popular in polls, just a lot more accessible prog with a wider appeal.

Thank you clarifying, that's all I wanted just because I don't like this band much doesn't give Dayvenkirq the right to say the things he says. However I think you saying Prog is accessible is wrong because there's nothing accessible about it

in the grand scheme of things, yes, prog is not a very accessible genre, but it still has some bands that are accessible. There's a reason Pink Floyd and Rush are on the radio but King Crimson and Gentle Giant are not.

to say "oh you nicked the crims an average band"or something like that because it's my personal opinion and I know pretty darn well what they are going for but it just doesn't interest me, that's the end of the line. You cannot impose your opinions on others and that's what your basically saying and doing, THE END!!!!!

^ I'm aware of Traffic. But I don't remember them using a Mellotron or a saxophone. Traffic were more like a jazzy version of The Animals. Just no symph prog elements. That doesn't make them prog. That makes them proto-prog. Like The Who.

It is not. But you might as well quit pretending that that's all you do. You scarcely show any interest in what other participants in a thread have to say and argue with them to establish that your opinion is better than others. There is no point protesting that that's not what you intended because that's exactly how it comes across to us (and I am not alone in saying so). For instance, I've backed you up in another comment on this thread and yet you pick on the one thing I said that you don't like so what does that tell you about your attitude. In a discussion forum, you cannot just go on posting monologues and then seek shelter under the "It's my opinion" cop out. People are going to respond to what you say so a little care over the choice of your words and showing the willingness to listen to another person won't hurt. Well, it might hurt your ego but that's a small price to pay (I hope).

Another example of your close minded rejection of another person's statement (and yet you want all the respect in the world for your own opinions!). Ever heard Money? And ever heard Fracture? Quick, which is the more accessible song of the two? Is there any KC track as accessible as Another Brick in the Wall or Spirit of Radio? It's just an observation, to say that a band is more accessible than another doesn't detract from it. Don't you think it would be better to consider a statement before jumping to dismiss it?

Seriously, attempting to deny that Floyd or Rush are more accessible than KC is just silly.
