To ensure this thread won't be closed, you must adhere to several a number of simple rules;
Please use spoilers when quoting a post with pictures and/or videos.
When posting large quantities of media (pictures or videos), please begin spoilering after the first piece. Grouping related videos in the same spoilers & labeling is recommended.
No reposting of old material unless justified
Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.
Normal posting standards that you find throughout the rest of the site still apply and will be enforced more strictly from here forward (2012/03/11)
Due to the poor nature of this thread in the past, temporary two-day bans will occur more than often if people slip up.

This measure of time made me chortle.
It was more a play on how fast the pages have been adding due to the cycle now that most bans are over.
Also, Korea's version of Hana Kimi isn't too bad. Saw it on Viki while they were in the middle of subbing it. My friends said that Sulli looks too much like a girl to be in the show. I replied with, they all look like girls, so it's okay.
I guess since she's legal now, she was allowed to have a shower scene?
Her smile is way too girlish to ever pass as a dude, it would probably ruin the believe-ability if I watched it. But those pictures, thank you for them.
I think everyone should be unbanned but Haxx now, right? Will probably way pick up in the next couple days, especially once that Kara MV comes out.

That's just the thing. You can only look at some much classy, clean SNSD until you crave some durty girlz. That's why we like this video. And Hyuna. Just gotta switch things up yo.
As far as Hyuna goes, I prefer her image as a cutie, rather than the sexy look. But if she didn't go into the sexy look, her pelvic thrust talent would've gone to waste.
Hyuna actually does cute surprisingly well considering how sexy she can be. It seems that if you can do sexy its usually easy to do cute... while not often the other way around.
Nice long video of a concert I guess, haven't watched it myself but managed to skip ahead right to the start of my favorite song! 18:35 in case you were wondering:
And here is a cover I actually thought was decent, and I usually don't like Busker Busker covers, though I haven't actually listened to too many of them. Apparently this girl doesn't speak Korean either.
I'll probably end up digging up some more stuff later, hopefully there is something post worthy that I find.
You are a good man Hallowed. Thank you for these.
Always happy to help and post much needed Busker Busker content.
Now, more of Phantom's new album for those interested.
I've never seen the appeal of Nicole and that teaser hasn't changed my mind. Every new trailer just confirms that new KARA song is just the James Bond theme with vocals over it though.
Also TuElite's post on positivity missed the point. I don't want to constructively criticize the groups I hate because I don't care about them, and to make me care about them would make them radically different groups. Sometimes you just gotta hate something, and there's room for that here too.
I can't believe that rankings are/were still going on as of 2 pages ago, it was quiet for 2 days then everyone got unbanned and here we are 500 posts in 12 hours later. I know I'm a pretty prolific poster here myself but this is getting ridiculous.

Also dunno why but blonde Skarf girl reminds me of Bekah for some reason
Also Nesserev is right, the biggest IU fan isn't the dude who decides to kill my browser by posting 200 pics and gifs. That just means they spent a lot of time on it and found a lot of pictures on the internet. I could do the same thing but that doesn't make me a huge IU fan.

I'll take blame, I did sort of bait it by saying Yoona was bottom half of my rankings (but honestly so).
I feel like if you gunna shit on a group, you gotta at least make it interesting with some points. just saying "this group is shit" is pretty much a flame bait...

Means that you're modding for lack of content and not for negativity (which I would agree with). You shouldn't mod for opinions, if you mod for other reasons that's a separate debate.

Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
This was the rule I got warned for, makes sense I guess. I should keep it minimal, instead of explaining why I don't like sooyoung, i can just make a tier list that puts her at the bottom.

I will be doing one to give away KARA albums and stuff when they comeback and release the album.
Would you guys prefer an actual 1v1 style double elim tournament or a FFA luck involved fun stuff with the other KMD members ?

clearly lack of content>content.
I didn't and still don't approve of that rule though. Part of the fun of the old thread IMO was that people would say terrible, terrible shit about popular idols all the time and (almost) no one got mad cause everyone realized that opinions will be opinions, also that shit was hilarious. Then people got butthurt and now we can't have fun anymore.
@TuElite- I didn't vote cause I won't be participating, partially because I have no use for KARA swag and partially because I'm terrible at Starcraft (relative to average TL skils)

@Dystopia (and everyone else sharing the same opinion)
At first I intended to do a FFA so that skills wouldn't matter all that much. And I know that a lot of KMD members are bad at the game lol (me and Juliette confirmed chobos :p). It's more of an occasional to bring people together and have fun together. Will be streamed and casted and whatnot. Everyone should participate, if you win and don't want the stuff, it'll be sent to the 2nd place finisher or something along those lines.
@Cubu, I don't know LoL, never even played it or anything so no I won't be doing my giveaway on there. Since this is TL I thought Starcraft would be the best way to bring people together for the occasion.
FFA is more fun, would be more efficient, takes less time (one sitting maybe), and also gives me a better chance of winning it so I'm up for FFA lol. And yeah unichan I think the typo was mentioned a while ago
Dystopia, choose FFA then :D just participate for fun ^^
And yes modding for lack of effort/content is completely deserved, but I think criticizing a group with some sort of substance behind it should be fine. I daresay most of the time those who are criticizing things and are banned don't do it with much substance though fwiw.

I have no desire to play SC2. I quit months ago and would have quit earlier if I had not had a couple friends who I fucked around with semi-regularly.
The problem is that no one who's criticizing things without substance are making jokes (in purpl3's case especially I think a 30 day is harsh for what that post is, and his posting history doesn't strike me as being worth a 30 day either) that no one should take seriously (I almost said would but some people get mad at really petty shit here), and even if someone is expressing actual hate of a group there's no reason they should get modded for it either. It's a legit opinion and anyone who gets upset because they don't share your love for Yoona is being ridiculous.
FFA would also be better. 1v1 would probably just be one-sided all the way anyways by whoever is the best player here. For the greater good of the thread, I think it is better to have it more luck based (which isn't a bad thing at all for a giveaway anyways). It's really nice of you to do that kind of giveaway BTW.
