i dont remember stating my personal opinion on this. i wasnt telling you to shut up and accept MY views, all i was saying is that you are trying to prove a point with fact when the threads question is "WHICH DO YOU THINK IS BETTER AND WHY?" not "WHICH ONE IS BETTER, AND PROVIDE FACTUAL PROOF"

im not being a hypocrite. i never once state who i thought was better. i was using examples to show that you were pushing your "facts" on people in a thread that is meant for people to express their opinions. and that your "factual" posts were completely based on opinion. its called BIAS, and is a part of human nature. deal with it.

That's your OPINION.

Why are you fearful of an in-depth debate? It hasn't descended into a flame war with name-calling, vulgar language and threats. So who cares if we argue a bit?

Does everything have to be a 15-second soundbite or "touchy feely" vacuous three sentence post?

People LEARN through argument and debate, as long as it remains civil, which it has so far.

it's not an in depth debate. a debate needs verifable facts, not just the same opinions stated over and over and over, which is what you're doing. and yes, they are opinions. apart from the beatles oh so impressive album sales, you've yet to present a single other HARD FACT.

Its the fact this arguement is getting stupid and you can't prove a bands better by record sales. I mean last time i checked blink 182 didn't have more talent then dragonforce and yes they have WAY more record sales. You can't prove a band is better then another band. Its a matter of opinion.

Yes, you are a hypocrite. And you're just as biased as some others on this board. Your semantic games and denials won't work with me.

You clearly told me to "shut up and accept other people's views". You obviously need to follow your own advice.

I presented NUMEROUS DEMONSTRABLE FACTS. You are the one who has presented only opinions.

And unlike you, I NEVER told anybody to "shut up" if they didn't agree with me. People who disagree with me are certainly entitled to their opinions, and to express them here--I've never even SUGGESTED that they didn't have that right.

Yet you're getting all holy and self-righteous, demanding that I "shut up and accept other peoples views". You preach tolerance of other peoples views--as long as they're in line with yours! But you're intolerant of mine.

you keep repeating that you've presented numerous demonstrable facts....only, you're the only one who seems to know what those are, because the rest of us have only seen one from you. where are these facts that you speak of?

Record sales mean nothing

Total album sales....

Britney Spears - 31 million
Nirvana - 25 million

Remind me again , who were supposed to be the band of the 90s?

see, thats exactly what i've been trying to get accross. Apparently there were "numerous" other "undeniable" facts that "prove" the beatles are a better band than the stones. Still waiting to hear what those are though....
