Imnotokay17 1 Report post Posted September 12, 2013 I decided to make a new topic in the Entertainment section of the forums. It was simply to find the Metalheads so I may befriend them, discuss Metal, etc. But it was instantly locked. I looked and I saw that there is only one topic for each genre of music. Why? Isn't that kind of limiting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Massacre 7646 Report post Posted September 12, 2013 Yes, it's limiting. It's also intentional. I don't care what fans of current rap think, and they don't care what people with good taste in music think, because they're busy being stupid. Best to keep them separated. For this reason, we will not have a general music discussion topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted September 12, 2013 ...isn't there a big metal thread going already?? there's no need for a new one... http://www.igta5.com...topic/22-metal/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Imnotokay17 1 Report post Posted September 12, 2013 Okay.. Isn't THAT a bit ignorant? I mean, I'm not much of a fan of Rap but they should be able to discuss rap if they'd like. By this logic, we should have specific movie genre threads too.. One thread with a hundred people commenting on it about completely different things... That isn't really a fun discussion. Sometimes people would like to talk about a certain bands new album or what this rap artist is doing or which record company that band signed to.

Imnotokay17 1 Report post Posted September 12, 2013 Okay, I get that there are certain places for certain things and all. That's fine. But I mean.. Instead of just locking a thread without the author even getting a chance to explain his reasoning for opening a thread, could we at least get a Mod message? Or can they just let us move it to a different part of the forum so it can still go on? I've literally gotten three topics closed already for (What seems to me) not much of a good reason.

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted September 12, 2013 If I lock a topic, I explain why. If I don't explain it, it is very, very obvious why it was locked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know? with your logic, we'd have a couple dozen dead threads where no one talks about anything... why not get the people together, who like to talk about metal, into one topic, no matter what style, and talk about, well... metal music...?? *mind blown* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
