I think it'd be helpful to be able to see the arguments in Jorge's thread together with the ones in this one. Can we get them merged?

This thread has indirectly helped answer the question "What kind of fucking monster would primarily navigate the board using 'View active topics?'"

Wait, why wouldn't you?

It puts all the active discussions of the day on display. Aside from the Sports forum, which isn't really that active, I'm involved/interested in all the other subforums.

Having only ever quickly scanned the title of this thread, I always assumed it was about Blue Oyster Cult.

I like my discussions grouped, and when I arrive at RM I click on whatever forum interests me at the time; I don't always want to drudge into Sports, so some visits I'll just hit up A+E and GD. Sometimes I'll click through them all. That's just how I roll. But you are all monsters.

Maybe you're the one who is the monster. Think about that for a moment.

I am legend.

still team spenno, i didn't think the gd idea was satisfactory either

The right place for Chuck Berry would have been this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6355

But it's too late now. He's already in the RM mass grave. You've ruined everything. And no, we don't need two mass graves.

Not that I really give a shit but for more popular artists, this is the answer. ^^^

Robert Fisher died. I went to OB, did a quick search for Willard Grant Conspiracy and there was no thread so I posted in this here thread which I believe is the right place for such a post. I hardly ever venture into the other RIP thread as I don't really visit A+E. I'm firmly with Spenno on this. And 2 threads on this whole message board which slightly overlap is no big drama.

RM argues about the dumbest shit.

We have 20 threads jerking off about Star Wars and we are worried about TWO RIP threads cluttering things up?! Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck yooooooouuuuus

Great point.

And it's not even close.

So you're saying we should have a sub forum dedicated to RIP threads? I wonder if it's too late to get that option added to the poll.

Sib Hashian, Boston drummer:

The outrage over having two RIP threads show up in Active Topics a few times a year is quite laughable next to Lenny's abuse of quote pyramids.

I heard today that Hashian died while playing a gig on one of those rock cruise things.
