Big Four Bands Thread Round 19: Gothic Rock

Users get four votes. No more, and no less. You can vote for any reason you want. Importance, favoritism, and any other reason is eligible. At the end of the voting week, which is Friday, all of the votes are tallied. The four bands with the most votes are the winner.

OK I didn't vote for Kyuss etc etc, but I don't see any reason to disqualify those four Stones Rock bands. From the best source I had available they are Stoner Rock bands. If you think they lean more towards another sub-genre, fine - can't argue with that. But there's no need to disqualify four bands, which imo make good music. I don't get you people, if you were into Stoner Rock, you would know they ain't half that bad as any other nomination.

Bro he's ****ing trolling you. Nea doesn't give a damn about participating in this thread, so taking away his vote is probably going to mean dick to him. All he wants is to piss you off. Like me.

Damn, looks like Neapolitan understands the rules better than the guy trying to enforce them. How about that.

Well, as you've seen me state, I'm done biting. From now on I'm ignoring his posts in general. That includes his votes, so now there's a good reason for me to ignore his trolling, and his votes. But that's not going to stop him from lying about me and probably getting people to complain even more. So if he causes anymore problems, I won't be the one to bite. If his lying gets to other users, I'll go to the mods. I'm not trying to treat Nea unfairly, and I was never "aganst" his voting.

IOn fact, I checked all of the bands on his vote, (one of them was only labelled as stoner on Bandcamp, so I decided to count bandcamp this time anyway to avoid any comflict, and I had never said Bandcamp wasn't allowed). But then I noticed the snot joke he made, so I wasn't so sure it was a real vote or just a dumb joke. So I asked him about it. He spent so much time avoiding the question. I could have ignored it, but then he would've complained that I didn't count the vote. So I asked him nicely, then I confronted him. I then told him to end the argung and joking or he wouldn't get to vote anymore, not because the vote wasn't eligible (and all of the bands counted), but because he wouldn't stop arguing with me. I didn't want to take away his votes, but I want to argue with him less. Now I have a legitimate reason to ignore his messages.

Having said that, isn't that a good enough reason to go to the mods? I only bit because I didn't want him complaining. And he kept doing it. I can't tell when he's being serious or not (most of the time). So if he continues to give me a hard time, I'll get a mod. I'll ignore his posts the best I can, though. What he said about me was bull, so there';s no real reason for anyone to believe I'm "going against him" as I never had any beef with him before he first made that statement weeks ago.

And about the joke, I avoided counting it because I didn't want him complaining that I counted a joke rather than a "real vote." That's why I asked him. I would have counted it, but I confronted him. I gave him what he wanted because I can't tell with him. So now I know his form of trolling is with seemingly serious remarks.

Here's what I don't get, if the vote was eligible why didn't you just count it and ignore the joke and move on with your life. I mean it wasn't even a very funny joke.

Lemme edit my statement. And about the joke, I avoided counting it because I didn't want him complaining that I counted a joke rather than a "real vote." That's why I asked him. If he said something like, "I organized it like that because I thought it was funny, but that's my real vote," that would've been alright. I would have counted it, but I confronted him. I gave him what he wanted because I can't tell with him. So now I know his form of trolling is with seemingly serious remarks.

It was a Nea joke. Saying it's unfunny is unnecessary.

Blankmind, it's more out of a petty grudge than anything rational.

Pretty much.
