I know you like SNSD more but that doesn't mean everyone that trolls you deserves a ban, that would be stupid and only you, Maekju, Tippany, and Moonwrath would be here with a bunch of 1-time posters discussing how much you love SNSD. And then you move back to SSF cause it's the same thing anyway. dude I think this is the biggest insult I took online in years  but I don't really blame you or anything I don't pay much attention to who posts what around here eitherjust to explain in case you don't get it the SNSD part wasn't serious, my point is Roffles comes in here to discuss Korean Music, he just happens to have higher standards than most of us, but if this thread is full of "I love that video" "this pic is sexy" "Jiyeon eyes omg" "HyosuNGHNNNNNGGGG" etc, then what's the problem with "ugly ass bitch fucking plastic"? If we don't like something we're supposed to just keep quiet right? I was about to post this and finish off with yeah then why don't we apply to move this thread over to SSF while we're at it. But then I saw your post and that line just lost a bit of momentum, props man On November 21 2011 17:29 XaI)CyRiC wrote: As has been stated before, it's not just about WHAT you say but HOW you say it as well.

The words he uses are there for a reason, everybody understands what he means. | ||

I'm really liking "Stop!" on the WG album and "Reminiscence" on the Lessang album. I haven't made up my mind about the T-ara album and I haven't really been listening to the SNSD album, plus it was talked about a lot when it came out. Both of these have been mentioned here before but I feel like there are more nice songs out there, especially since the less popular albums don't get talked about much. I don't really watch through all the performances on the music shows so I'm probably missing out on a few gems. WG + Show Spoiler + Lessang + Show Spoiler + | ||

The words he uses are there for a reason, everybody understands what he means. Where do I say I know better than him how to express his opinion? This isn't about better, this is about him staying within the forum guidelines, particularly those that apply specifically to this thread. There's nothing wrong with people expressing negative opinions in this thread, it happens all the time as anyone can plainly see. The problem is when people express those opinions in a way that is unnecessarily vulgar or offensive. Roffles is free to say that he thinks Dal Shabet is ugly and/or that they're "plastic". What he's not allowed to do in this thread is say it while tossing out various unnecessary vulgarities. There's a difference between saying something like "I don't get why people think ____ is so attractive, I think she's ugly" and something like "______ is an ugly ass bitch, and anyone who believes otherwise can go fuck themselves". Both are basically saying the same thing, but one is unnecessarily vulgar and offensive, and those traits do nothing in terms of generating discussion or expressing the opinion other than to shit up the thread and try to incite similar comments in response. If you can't figure out the difference and the policy against that kind of posting, then you might want to consider posting elsewhere where the people who run the site allow it. | ||

The criticism and negative commentary about idols is starting to build up again and I'm giving a general warning to everyone to keep it in check. it wouldn't be too hard to get the wrong idea. We can't be blamed if kpop sucks right. | ||

I just sometimes wish TL wasn't so victorian regarding vulgarities, and it's good you posted this because with just stuff like it wouldn't be too hard to get the wrong idea. We can't be blamed if kpop sucks right. This thread wasn't strict at all for a long time. If anything, the moderation policy was way too lenient. Changes were made when the quality of the posts dropped so low that it actually caught the attention of some of the more senior members of the staff, who were very tempted to just delete the thread. Some of us felt that the thread could and should be preserved and that the quality of the posting could be improved by more active moderation and stricter standards. That's now happened multiple times, and we're now forced to resort to much stricter standards. In the past, Roffles would have been allowed to go off on his obscenity-laced flamefests without any reprisal. The nature of this thread has forced us to change that, and you're seeing the results. If you all really want more leeway, then you can earn it by improving the posting in the thread for an extended period of time. | ||

Or maybe even songs that are being promoted right now but because the artist isn't really popular it doesn't get discussed here often. Stop! and Sweet Dreams are my favorites from Wonderworld. Goodbye, OK is my favorite track from Black Eyes. TRICK is literally the only track I like from The Boys. 바래 was pretty good from Moving in Secret, but the rest was pretty forgettable. 불편한 진실 and Hot Shot were pretty good in Sixth Sense. Asura Balbalta was an awesome album overall, but 회상 ft. 백지영, 격산타우, and 독기 all really stuck out for me. 어베일러블 ft. Lady Jane and 원숭이띠 미혼남 ft. ZICO of Block.B were the only tracks I liked on Go Easy (in addition to the title). The only decent track on Tablo's First Solo Album was 출처 (Scratch by DJ Tukutz), I kinda liked 집 ft. 이소라 because the hook was amazing. I think that's all from recent releases. In addition, Huh Gak's albums are worth a listen or two. I've also been listening to Dj Clazzi's single on repeat for the past day or two. | ||

I remember being sad that it was dead before I could screenshot being banned as a malicious user. This thread wasn't strict at all for a long time. If anything, the moderation policy was way too lenient. It still is. The things that actually need to be moderated aren't. Spoilering pictures and media needs to be a rule (that actually gets enforced), not a matter of common sense. Reposting the same thing 6+ times in <2 week periods need to actually be moderated, but that rule has only ever been enforced maybe twice and even then because it was reposts of Gee. White-knighting every time someone makes the smallest slight against someone needs to be forbidden. Posting pictures that function as memes (looking at you gif of Jessica saying "there goes the last fuck I gave" need to get the same treatment as actually posting a meme -- a ban. I rest my case: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=98009¤tpage=1941#38811 http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=98009¤tpage=1941#38813 | ||
