The shuffle your iPod and be judged game 2.0

No we're not. We're complaining about how elitist and snobbish you're being about it. Everyone is entitled to opinions and different tastes, but I'm getting a real bad vibe of negativity and elitism from this thread and both your tones and choices of words. 

 

I've been told a lot of times from people around the forums that the stuff I like "isn't music" and that my taste is garbage. But that seems to be completely fine in this case, and I get labeled as an "elitist". That's fair

 

And people calling Drone metal "not music" are equally as snobbish as the people who claim that pop "isn't music". You're the one being biased right now

 

You can dislike something and judge it fairly. For example, I dislike Call of Duty as a matter of taste in games, but I wouldn't flunk it in a review because I can see it merits and why it might appeal to people. 

 

You would still not give CoD a fair rating though, because it simply does not appeal to you. Sure, say "I can see why this appeals to you", but the rating would be a completely different story

 

 

Anyways, if you have anything else to say on the matter, shoot me a PM

Why does everything always have to turn to arguments?

Because people misinterpret things

 

OT: Oooh, nice list there. I like the Metallica song and you got QOTSA. Not huge on Atreyu or MCR though - C+ (I forgot about the letter ratings...)

Queens of the Stone Age - No One Knows

MCR - Disenchanted

RATM - Take the Power Back

Metallica - Welcome Home (Sanitarium)

Atreyu - The Crimson

D- One of my least favorite Metallica songs, Arteyu sounds like a pseudo-In Flames. RATM and QOTSA are okay.

B Ween's alright, they're a bit of a grower.

Perish in Flames - Dark Angel

In N Out of Grace - Mudhoney

See at least Soundgarden is fair with his ratings. Dawn, you even said RATM and QOTSA are okay and I still got a D-? really???? okay whatever.

I never said that, with the possible exception of Dubstep(because everyone has a weakness when it comes to being fair) I've never badmouthed a genre to that extent, just gave my personal opinion on it

Yes, yes I would. I'd in fact very easily give it a "C" because I can fully admit it's fun to pick up cheap and wast a few hours on, I just don't find "OMG TEH BEST THING EVER" like some people do because there's other games I rather play if given the choice.

 

I'll have to come in and actually make a post in a few

Please don't try to start this stuff up, we just ended the last ridiculous argument, we don't need a new one coming up.

And just when I thought that argument was done and in the past

 

For the person below:

Underoath - When The Sun Sleeps
Psyclon Nine - Flesh Harvest
Opeth - Ghost of Perdition
Type O Negative - Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare All)
Cult of Luna - Following Betulas
 
I got ninja'd by Dawn, though I guess a second rating on this list wouldn't be bad, because I'm too lazy to do another one, also Dawn you get an A+ from me.

don't make me rant about dubstep and brostep now ;_;

please

 

Anyways, I see your point, but in music games such as these, you rate based on your own personal enjoyment. No other things need to be taken into consideration, few people do anyways

Well wait a minute...we are only strictly judging based on personal enjoyment? I mean I always like to take into account the talent of the band as well. I wouldn't give a talented band a bad score just because I don't enjoy them, that's not really fair.

Of course, you can rate in whatever way you want, you aren't restricted to one method. I should have made it clear that rating based on personal enjoyment is by far the most common way of rating, and people shouldn't be like "DATS DEH RONG WAY OF RAETING >:CCCC"

I'm only human too, and that would probably be a rant I'd join you on. XD

 

And I see yours, but part of having fun is being somewhat nice about it. It's not really playing fair to flunk whole lists because you dislike one song or artist. 

 

I really need to make another proper entry...

Oh, that. I didn't even like anything else on that list, but MMF was the thing that really got my grade low. My original rating would've been like a E- anyways

 

RATE MY LIST FFS

 

Where is it? :/

I have no idea what I'm supposed to rate right now :l

 

Nine Inch Nails - Happiness In Slavery

Radiohead - How To Dissapear Completely

Nine Inch Nails - Terrible Lie

SONOIO - No Fun

Altar of Plagues - Earth: As A Womb

 

@Moog I already rated you

 

You ninja'd me as well, before I made that post

 

I see you're trying to get into Psyclon Nine. I've tried to get into them, trust me, they just haven't... clicked for me yet, y'know

 

I already dig them and a huge fan of them, I've got quite a few of their albums on my computer already, and I don't think that they'll click for you.

Things have stabilized for the moment (again), but seeing as how this is a blatant pattern, I'm going to leave this here.

 

Numerous conversations throughout this topic, namely page 4 from yesterday just recently, have continually tried to derail this thread with repetitive mini-arguments. So, let's not do that anymore. There's endless forum games in here, to do with music and not. You also have the ability to create new games, as well as go over to Media Discussion to discuss music without the rating aspect. So, if you're upset over someone or something in here, I suggest you be the bigger person and walk out.

 

We're in Cloudsdale for Celestia's sake, if you're going to derail threads with bickering, it should at least be over in one of the discussion boards.
