The Flood Theory of Deterioration: q(p)=(qi)e^(-p/r)

Where q(p) is the quality of the thread as a function of p posts, (qi) is the inital quality of the first post, p is the amount of posts and r is the e-peen of the original poster.

The only thing on the list that I would want to get rid of are certain sub-genres of metal. So I voted for that despite not wanting to get rid of the genre as a whole.

LOL

Pop literally means popular music, You'd be getting rid of way to much music by doing this.

Rap can be good it just needs to not be so friggin reppetive.

Punk is influenced and has been influenced by metal...so we can't get rid of punk (even if the majority of it sucks).

Dubstep can be pretty good, but it's a little to repetitive.

Electronic sucks terribly. At least the electronic music that repeats the exact same super fast beat and 2 second melody over and over again for 20 minutes does.

The people who voted for metal piss me off (they just tack one or 2 of the hundreds of sub genres onto the entire genre and assume that all metal is like that).

Classic Rock is to amazing.

Classical has influenced almost all modern music in some way, and alot of it is pretty great.

Assuming getting rid of one genre wouldn't get rid of stuff influenced by it in another genre then I'd get rid of punk.

GOAT

I voted for metal because basically 1 or 2 of the subgenres ruin the entire genre.

Just curious here, but if he doesn't think any of those bands are great, how is you listing them going to change his mind?

I'm not trying to change his mind. He claims he "...can't think of anything great that ever came out of that -blam!- genre."
Calling a genre -blam!- just because he doesn't like it seems a bit unacceptable, don't you think?
I simply listed the obvious greats of the genre, the "Big Bands" of the Metal genre.
Just because he thinks it's -blam!- doesn't mean that nothing good has come from it.

Too bad being completely and utterly wrong isn't a bannable offense.
