Imagine being this boring
>>64372328
his 4 stars albums are not that bad. i've seen worse users...
Who's worse?
>Dude with all <2 ratings, except for Desertshore, Tago Mago, etc. which have threes at best
>Everything has a .5, except for a few classical recordings, which go three at most. There is a single 3.5 or 4 that is something like a Tibetan string quintet live in Portugal that has only one other rating
>>64372328
He's not even an AntiWarhol drone or an avant-teen trying to form some kind of "unique" "taste", he's just an edgy entry-level /mu/ babby.
>>64372328
I fucking hate contrarians
>>64372328
so can this guy even claim to like music? he doesn't enjoy the vast majority of things he listens to
>>64372529
Close-minded metalfags are the worst RYM users. followed by ~2mysterious4u~ avant-teenies with over 2.000 ratings but less than 5 reviews, followed by people who discovered /mu/p4k/r/music a mere month ago who think they have great taste for listening to Radiohead and Macintosh Plus and use post-ironic memes in fucking everything.
>>64372756
Whats wrong with having no reviews?
>>64372823
it's like having 1000 spoons when all you need is a knife
>>64372823
>guys I have controversial opinions everyone pay attention to me
>ok I disagree with you, care to elaborate why you think this and that?
>lolno [long pretentious diatribe that has no relation to the original post]
>>64372707
aren't you a contrarian yourself?
>>64372839
thats ironic
>>64372940
Don't you think?

ask me a question pertaining to music cuz i'm in a social mood today
>le rym is le great just le ignore every1 / posts username in le rym threads on le /mu/

>wew lads le cancerous forum let's le talk about it all day but don't ever le go there lmao
>le every1 but le me is le faker - why won't any1 le drooooooone meeeeeeeeee
>writes 10000 reviews the same boring way even though any single one tells everything you need to know about your opinions
burn it all down
>>64372569
It's like one of those people that /bleep/ makes fun of for having entry-level basic taste decided to make a RYM account to take revenge on them by giving high scores to /mu/ essentials stuff and shit scores to anything outside of that.
>>64372823
there's really nothing wrong with having no reviews. people on this board just think there is because they're obsessed with invalidating people's opinions and tastes, controversial or otherwise, and is nothing more than a demonstration of their own autism via caring about arbitrary social nonsense instead of music
>>64372910
i'm really proud of this guy for example because of his vivid imagination and ability to create scenarios in his head that fit his hilarious observations ("everyone pay attention to me," "pretentious diatribe," decent composure that pretty much never happens on this board ["ok I disagree with you, care to elaborate why you think this and that?"])
>>64373321
a review at least proves you've listened to an album and had some psychological critical process which led to the formation of the opinion you've expressed in your score
the avant-teens who go on an adhd rating spree make it seem like they haven't even listened to the music they've rated
>>64372328
Not a bad profile by any means, but still very strange to have no 4.5s or 5s. Oh well, I'm sure he has his valid reasons for it, autistic or not.
>>64373132
>le le le le
How about I burn you down instead? Ironic shitposting is still shitposting. You can convey your frustration in other ways you underaged cunt.
>>64373464
Sup Zucconelli.
>>64373468
I was belittling the fools who complain about RYM on /mu/ in full denial of their massive hypocrisies.
I hope you felt extremely belittled because that's what you deserve.
>>64373447
you're correct but it's still unnecessary, and nobody needs to prove their emotional-intellectual resonance and/or listening session to you, or anyone else for that matter.
>the avant-teens who go on an adhd rating spree make it seem like they haven't even listened to the music they've rated
i still don't understand what people mean when they say this. do you mean those people who just start out with an account or something? i've never personally witnsessed this on RYM.
>>64372839
>>64372910
I just rate on rym to get a visual representation of what I thought of an album. In case it comes up in conversation with someone or I look back at it in retrospect so I can imagine the rating and remember why I liked it or not and what I did like about. I don't feel like writing reviews would benefit me that much.
>>64373584
I don't give a shit what your intent was. Kill yourself.
>>64373617
Oh my, struck a nerve did I? What a cutie. I will cherish your meager fury.
>>64373132
also, add that those who talk shit about everyone on RYM here 24/7 never seem to make it their business to talk 1-on-1 with those they endlessly talk shit about.
it's almost like... people here really are socially stunted.
>>64373617
nice cognitive dissonance, you little girl.
>>64372985
sup
>>64373586
it's barely a problem and doesn't really matter except for cases like the OP in which obscure releases get the unjust treatment of being panned by pretentious users who thus damn the release to being ignored by other people who use RYM for discovering music who after seeing the low score on the obscure release assume it's a bad release (ignorant of the fact it only has one or two ratings) when in reality it has only fallen a victim to a rating rapist who doesn't even bother explaining why he this the way he does
>>64373694
>are socially stunted
No, you're a towel
>>64373737
nada much man, bored and it's damp and chilly out
sup with you ?
>>64373749
yeah i can agree with that, that does suck. i'm mostly referring to those who constantly get called "fake raters" in these threads, some people even being my friends i've had tons of great conversations with about music, and idk dude, it's pretty cowardly.
>>64373822
what th FUCK did you just call me ?

When you look up "dilettante" in the dictionary, you see a pic of Sal.
>>64373913
I've always wondered why avant-teens on rym tend to gravitate towards Bach and not someone like Beethoven who I personally enjoy a lot more. I guess it doesn't matter tho
>>64374064
they want to fuck or just get stepped on by ~antigona
the real question is, why do people with "anti" in their name get droned so hard?
>>64374145
stop looking at me like that
>>64372381
kek.
>>64374123
prolly dude
do you like any Bach btw? I'm about to listen to his partitas & sonatas
>>64374174
baby kitty
>>64374064
Bach has nothing to do with Beethoven. At all.
>>64374405
well yeah no shit but bach's name is in that strawpoll so I want to talk about him
dumb post
am i supposed to be subjective or objective in rym ratings
>>64374479
Be objectively subjective.
hi friends
>>64374479
well, seeing as it's literally impossible to be objective, i'd say probably subjective.
>>64374479
subjective because objectivity in music doesn't exist. no, theory does not count
>>64372756
nothing wrong with not reviewing, some people are just not good writers. i'd take someone with no reviews over some idiot who writes unfunny one-line inside-jokes or purple prose that has nothing to do with the album any day
those people that go like "people who don't review don't know how to enjoy music" are just the worst
>>64374479
Doesn't matter, rate how you want. Some people take the rates on rym way to seriously, but it's pointless.
I've seen people rating an album on the day it came with 5 stars, having listen to it probably once or twice at best.
>>64373132
You're mostly right but holy shit stop with the "le le le" bullshit holy fuck this is obnoxious.
