Fair point, but I disagree. First of all everyone\anyone is welcome to vote in the nomination thread. if a band does not get through that round then they have no chance anyway. Secondly it is the Music banter hall of fame and that's why I think people who understand the community and it's tastes are best suited to select the bands to represent it.

No offense at all, but I don't think someone like you should get a vote yet because who knows if you'll even still be posting come November.

I still think the 1000 post thing is still too strict, i'd probably take it down to 500 posts as there's posters who can put up a good argument but obviously we should probably keep it to the more experienced lot
To first answer your question, yes a poll less thread, second no all the bands up for voting at once. So far Zeppelin, JD and likely Elliott Smith make three. Once we get enough (I thought you suggested 5-6) then start an induction thread and give it 7-10 days for people to make a case to whomever is on the panel.

Like i said, I am malleable on the 1,000 post thing, I just want to be sure the people deciding who represent the site are the people who understand the community. I would have quickly shot JD or Elliott Smith down in my first few months on the site, that's the main reason for my suggestion.

Let's here from everyone though, we got a few weeks to work out the bugs.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.
