I like the job he's doing as newly appointed moderator, actually.

I mean, I am not quite into Baseball. Though someone being able to read much of something about it is better than a person not being able to read something about it.

I'm sorry, I guess I should follow the example set by the older, better moderators and never ever post, or even look in this base ever again.

... You're indignant because I said that Knuckles is doing a good job as moderator and suggesting, in response, that you'll never start discussions and never post like Da King used to do?

What the hell are you getting at here? I have no idea what you're trying to say. You're not going to start threads here because Steve didn't?

What?

I made a joke about how a sports discussion on this board goes over about as well as a cooking class for dolphins, because the only other person besides Knuckles who gives a good god damn about sports is you, and you and Knuckles probably talk about this shit on the phone all day, and it'll never get discussed here, and I'll have to listen to Knuckles bitch and moan about how nobody ever responds to sports posts, and to that, you make a response that is not only not made in the same humor-rific tone that mine was in, but whose content matched mine about as good as a bottle redhead's uh, room decor, and then I made a joke about how moderatorship is an honor in name only, and that nobody really 'moderates' their base, and I'm now accused of being indignant and getting at something? It was a joke. Get Ben to remind you what that is, you know, between all those <strike>Star Trek Episodes</strike> busy and important things you do every night.

I'm writing a baseball preview in a sports forum. I said if you don't like baseball not to read this. What's the problem?

I'd like to see some album reviews, oh wait, you're the sports part and someone else is supposed to be the music part. Great reviews though, even if I don't watch sports.

Albums

I'd be more than happy to write an album review. Unfortunatley I'm one of the few people left in the world who doesn't pretend to hate pop music.

In order to write effective music reviews I'm told you must listen to utter shit. YOu must champion the cause of whatever terrible music you listen to and hope to god it doesn't become popular to more than 5,000 people across the world. Because then, you aren't so special and you can't be a fucking snob.

My favorite (no) is Rolling Stone. Back before Radiohead did exactly what was described above, Rolling stone gave the radiohead release the BENDS a 4 out of 5. 5 years later they revised the rating to 5 out of 5. WTF is that?

Also anybody who rates things out of 5 is an asshole. (Unless you use decimal points like 4.3 out of 5). Rate things out of a fucking 100.

Me- I'm just waiting for Level 42 to release another catchy single.

Me posting an album review anywhere in the vicinity of this board would be about as uselsss as talking about next year's Bocci Ball tourney.

Turns out that it is not only a sport nobody cares about, but also a drink recipe nobody's ever heard of.

1 oz Amaretto
2 oz Orange juice
Fill with Soda water

or

2 oz. Amaretto
Orange Juice
Orange Slice

If lurkers know this is a good place to get album reviews, they will start coming by every day and possibly even eventtually contriibute posts. In order to make a BBS a place that people want to go to everyday, you have to make an investment of time and resources even if nobody out there is going to respond to it.

And besides, if you post a few of them I will collect them into a single "features" to post on the front page of the BBS for people to easily find and read until the end of time itself. The features get read quite regularly.

TKQ is the designation of an airport in Tanzania. ?

I am already part of some metal discussion outlets that I don't post reviews for. I kinda thought my job around here would just be to point out why what everyone else is listening to is crap.

Well, moderation is just moving crap. Though bitching about a guy posting sports in the correct forum is a little much when you do little music posting in the music forums, which is said to be your forte.

Bitching about it would be, making a joke about how much time he put into being in inverse proportion to how much any of us watch baseball is just a taunt. Seriously, did you even read my original post? Or are you just responding to the furor that has been raging for the past 3 days? It was a JOKE.

Has it really been that long?

Oh, I realized the tongue in cheek nature. Though, I don't really think people here need to be reminded that they don't watch baseball, especially with a "ZANY SITUATION" joke. I just got pissed that you simply assumed that no one here could ever be interested in shit they aren't right now fans of.

You're like the insecure chick dressed in black at Thanksgiving dinner whose family can't say anything to even remotely non-positive before yelling out dramatically that nobody can tell her anything because sis is too fat, dad cheated with the next-door neighbor a few years ago, mom drinks Sudafed before bouts of compulsive television shopping, brother thinks he's so perfect because he got an A when he wouldn't have gotten it if he hadn't been on the Lacrosse team, grampa blew up a bunch of people in the war just because their eyes slanted, and America has degenerated into a consumer driven country of spoiled brats with Imperialist ambitions. And honestly thinks that nobody else already knew these things, and that's she's special, discerning, and telling-it-like-it-is, because she's the only one on the room who isn't fake.

That was a SIMILE.
