Lyn, this is not directed at you, it just so happens yours is the post on the topic. I have seen the thread Sarge is referring to- I posted in it. Wario started the thread in the "Other Rock and Roll Heroes" section of the board, which is the appropriate place to put the thread. He listed his top 10 Billy Joel songs, and others chimed in and added theirs, we discussed a bit- nice thread. One individual took the time to "Dislike"
every single post in the thread. Sarge said one was missed, could be.
Now, my point is, that maybe this person doesn't like Billy Joel, or isn't interested, in which case, IMO, the fair, respectful thing to do would be to simply not open the thread. The thread title was completely clear. She could have posted her own list, or, even post saying that she doesn't like Billy Joel and why- that is a discussion. Surely you can see why some people might be annoyed.
That thread was in no way disrespectful of Meat- I don't think he was even mentioned. Many music fan boards have sections for "Other Music", because often fans of one artist have other similar likes in common.
One board I belong to has a section for political discussions. It's not my thing, so I just don't look at it. If people don't like the "Other Music" forum, they don't need to read it. Better yet, if there is someone who annoys you so much that you dislike every single one of his or her posts, this board has an "ignore" feature- problem solved.
And, I realize it will only be a matter of time before this post is "disliked" as well. I can't let Wario beat me, can I?
