this is a good quote to weigh in on on this issue. i happen to agree with you as well razors. forums get respectable when the folks inhabiting them do. having more forums spreads the subject matter, specializes the discussion but if the folks that pass through or stick around and contribute attack, what's the use of that.
as far as the progressive issue? rock's rock to me. progressive has always meant more a format than a specific type of music. format like in the radio playlist sense. we have a public radio station that comes from a college campus here in baltimore. you can hear johnny cash then next the grateful dead...then muddy waters...then coheed and cambria, rancid, and jack white and lorretta lynn. that's progressive to me. the songs don't follow any sort of pigeon-holed idea of a specific genre. it's just rock. rock's rock.
i'm new here and i chose this rock/metal forum because it best describes my taste. i get the feeling i'm a bit older than the average contributor here and i like that because i get new ideas on what could be worth listening too. but not if i have to wade through a bunch of bullsh$t to get to useful suggestions.
my vote? bring on the new forum, leave the crap at the door man!
