Yeah, he's way too far up for someone who is world-renowned for his ability to abstain
*snicker*
juhae
He's the Neville Chamberlain of MB in his abstinence

[Server Notice] Good afternoon, all. The server you're on, niven.freenode.net, is due to be rotated out for maintenance. Please disconnect and reconnect at your first opportunity. Thanks much, and thank you for using freenode!
Did you notice there's another album with a same title already in the db
Different track count
But it's labeled as an "album" whereas that's a "live"
nikki_ is sick of people's attitudes, including her own
mustaqil
:/
HairMetalAddict
The link I provided shows the listing as submitted in the above mod. It's a 1978 album, so it's very possible there's more than one release.
As for album or live, I'm verifying which one now.
Live is correct
Adjusting the other
nikki_ would personally have gone for a "Proof that it exists: [url here], can you change your vote please?" approach, rather than the "I am right. You are wrong. You are lazy and stupid." approach.
Seeing 3-4 different releases
HairMetalAddict would prefer a moderator not go through and *no-vote every single mod by a single editor on some weird unknown grudge*
nikki_
is inhouseuk still voting no on that user's mods?
'cause that is a vote from last year
HairMetalAddict
Er... it's still open and unexpired. So it's a vote from the past week.
nikki_
I didn't say it wasn't.
HairMetalAddict
Then I'm not understanding what you mean. ;-)
nikki_
last year = over 5 days ago
while I agree that inhouseuk should have added notes, even if just for the benefit of other people wondering why the no vote, I don't agree that all data is sacred unless proved otherwise idea you seem to have :/
after all, ruaok has said that he'd much prefer quality over quantity...
then again, if someone points out to me that I've voted no on something that does exist and isn't a complete mess, I'd change my vote.
HairMetalAddict
Actually wishing he did in this case. Would love to know what kind of reason he had for no-voting every single mod by another moderator.
I won't accept "no proof provided" for a no-vote. That's abstain at best. When submitting an album, "proof" is not required. Until it is, it's not a valid reason to no-vote. People too lazy to do a 1-second google search should be too lazy to vote no.
nikki_
and not everyone is good at searching :/
like my mum
I wish someone would teach her how to use google properly :/
HairMetalAddict
I don't think someone could make automod without knowing how to google though. ;-)
nikki_
ah, so we won't be seeing my mum amongst the automod ranks any decade soon... ;)
I've voted no on things without proof before, but that's usually because they seem rather suspect, and I always ask for proof
juhae
renames are a quite good example of where to default to no and ask for proof, if there's no information provided and the mod isn't about correcting a typo or anything
juhae captain obvious to rescue!
nikki_
exactly!
HairMetalAddict slaps captain obvious with an obvious trout
is an obvious trout an uncamouflaged trout?
HairMetalAddict
Heck if I know. I don't remember the last time I saw a trout. :-P
nikki_
I wish new users didn't have access to freedb imports, they always seem to find such horrible crap or duplicates
"yay! obscure homebrew! lemme add it to mb!"
well, I assume that's what's going through their minds.
juhae
Would it be too "undemocratic" to put a rule like "x succesful mods required for freedb import permissions"?
or un-whatever
mustaqil
"unfair" ;)
HairMetalAddict
That fortunately tends to happen more in the hip-hop (c)rap submissions, so my subscribed artists avoid the majority of that. :-P
juhae
Happens quite often in any language but english
As long as there are some funny characters included, they're prolly wrong or nonexistant
HairMetalAddict
Ah. I abstain everything's that's not English or Swedish by default.
nikki_ spent a while this morning cleaning up all the tatu bootlegs and transliterations
nikki_
108 applied mods, and I hadn't finished...
mustaqil
:o
juhae
native french and polish mods prolly have a lot of work to do
nikki_
now all the unofficial titles use the BGN/PCGN transliteration system, which is the closest to the random systems used before
but more importantly, it's consistent :D
mustaqil likes things consistant
mustaqil
I'm consistantly crap :)
nikki_
nooo
you're not crap when you give me hugs!
mustaqil
:D
mustaqil hugs nikki
nikki_ hugs back :D

juhae plays romantic music :P
Haha nooo
nikki_
he already has a gf
and I'm very single.
mustaqil
Presactly
Aww :(
juhae
Just how many time has that prevented anything!
nikki_
why aww?
mustaqil
At the latter statement
And juhae, but I'm not a complete asshole like other people
nikki_
but I'm happy being single!
mustaqil
As long as you're happy!
juhae
mustaqil: Good :)
mustaqil
Hmm, I guess I should tag some more stuff whilst I've the time
Mmm, female hair metal :)
HairMetalAddict
Vixen? Lita Ford?
mustaqil
Vixen
HairMetalAddict
Um... hmm... female hair metal artists can be counted on one hand...
HairMetalAddict notes that all the guys that looked like females in their spandex and makeup don't count :-P
mustaqil
Haha
It is indeed a dominantly male scene
juhae
Nitro's "Freight train" has the best hair-rock music video every made
ever, even ;P
mustaqil
Nah, you need Motley Crue's Girls Girls Girls
Or Warrant - Cherry Pie :P
HairMetalAddict
the uncensored version of that video, that is.
Mmm, Cherry Pie video was a work of art. ;-)
mustaqil
I hope you're joking
juhae
No, seriously, a four-necked guitar coming out of an explosion with a really ridiculous guitar solo makes it the best
