Still, I don't think Fright has had as long of a run as Wayne did, or has purposely gone out of his way to offend as many people as possible. He -is- perilously close to cheesing off the wrong person tho.
It's true. If anyone had all the free time in the world, they can see that problems with me arose from the POB thread, and then with Maria and I continuing our feud in another thread in the Albums section. I have not, for example, posted "EVERYONE WHO LIKES POB SUCKS!" on the General board, because there's no need for it.
When I get ticked, lots of stuff comes out of my mouth as it's been clearly shown recently. A few bad days doesn't warrent punishment, IMHO.

Oh, he's saying I'm posting from a different IP?
I'm going to hope that he's just mistaken and not a liar, because I've been at my house on the same computer each and every time I made a post here.
As administrator I see everyone's IPs. For me no doubt that previously you posted from differ IP which I've banned, now you have completely another IP. Why? I don't know.

Beats me, but there's two things I'd like to point out:
1) I definitely am not complaining. 2) Since there's no more problems at all with me and others, I don't think any other bans are necessary.
i think charlie said it best early on in this thread. having said that, there are just some albums that people rave about that others don't get. i recently picked up the "banana" album by the Velvet Underground, after reading rave reviews and seeing it listed somewhere near 15 on the 500 rolling stone list. i've listened through it twice now and i find it pretty hard on the ears. in fact it is horrible, though it may grow on me.it was something i never got around to listening to from the 60's. i feel it must have been one of those" you had to be there albums"....heydey 1967 drug induced pop party culture, etc. i can see how POB might be viewed this way. people looking for great music and not realizing the mood or message that was intended. music is art, and often people gasp at works of art in museums and say " my 5 year old could paint that"....it's what art and music is all about....senses

bump ... interesting debate ... I'm with Frightwolf here ... tho "garbage" is not exactly what I'd say ... over-rated instead ... anyway, I enjoy it too ... but I think that his best albums are:
