Your reoccurring variations of "I/we know/are better than you because you are new is a little... I think tiresome would be the word.

It doesn't matter, there's no such hierarchy here. I knew this site pretty much from the day Dan started it (early 2004 I think it was) and I signed up on the forum the day it was launched, which for example was roughly a year and a half before you joined. That fact alone hardly makes me any more insightful than you or anybody else.

There is no "us" that includes you. You are a newbie on The Corroseum and will have to live with it. Don't call newer members out unless ordered to do so by one of us veterans. :roll:
(it has come to my attention that irony might bee way too retro Swedish 90's humor for other people than Swedes in their late 20's/early 30's to understand, especially on the internet, so yeah, the above paragraph was irony)

I'm not trying to portray some sort of pseudo hierarchy here. That was not the intention of my post at all. My point was that when some guy joins the forum and then a couple months later tries to tell us that he thought the Corroseum was more "true" then it is based on what "Kick*Ass" monthly or whatever other source says is "real Metal", that’s just plain ridiculous. It's obvious that he hasn’t dug any deeper into the website then a few posts that mention bands that are apparently just a "gateway" to Metal.

Regarding my own join date, I'm not going to get into the specifics about how I browsed the website/forum before registering for quite some time and the fact that you and Dan are friends outside the internet, but I'm sure you get the point. I really don't want to argue this. Yeah, you joined before me and I'm not denying that. Good on you.

Well, I just brought this topic to Philty's attention, and hopefully in the next issue of Chromium Dioxide there will be printed proof of what W.A.S.P. is. Of course you all have to buy the magazine to find out :lol:

But it's not "Kick*Ass Monthly"...

Hah, but that LP is pretty common in used record stores and it's not expensive. It's quite easy to get... at least here in Europe certainly is.

By the way... SAXON at it's worst >>> WASP at it's best! :twisted:

If you're talking about Wheelz of Steel, I say... WHAT? If it's really "common", grab the next copy you see and I'll pay you twice what you paid for it. I doubt this is easy to find anywhere, I've been hunting all over Wisconsin and not seen a single trace of this record.

Haha, OK. I didn't realized you weren't talking about SAXON. Thinking that someone is desperately hunting that Saxon LP would be surreal. :lol:

Black Axe, as thread starter why don't you add a poll and let the people decide yay or nay?

for example:

W.A.S.P.

Metal {x}
Not {x}

Then maybe we can all move on.
