Weldon Pemberton posted:You in no way deserved to get banned, but I sort of understand how that could happen. Isn't there like an insider's thing among Radiohead fans about Kid A and Amnesia being much better than the other Radiohead albums, and misunderstood by critics who largely gave them poorer ratings than the previous albums? I could see there having been massive flame wars between people with that opinion and more casual fans with the more mainstream opinion (that OK Computer and The Bends are better), to the point where anyone going "OK Computer is better than Kid A" could be seen as trying to start a flame war. Another example would be people innocently coming in to say "the early Manic Street Preachers albums (before Richey disappeared) were by far the best" on a forum for that band and immediately getting dogpiled for being Cult of Richey and trying to start up an old debate. It could probably happen on SA as well, with some newbie coming in to discuss a controversial topic with a long and storied history on the forums, like furries or libertarianism. I am a huge Radiohead fan and I actively dislike the majority of Kid A, idgaf what the superfan consensus is. But then, there are few groups as petty, pedantic, and idiotic as those who get really serious about popular music. Probably only gamers and audiophiles are worse. The human ability to get into a slapfight about literally anything is actually kind of amazing.
