Hmmmm.... Its funny, the Official Dream Theater thread tends to have a few Dream Theater fans kicking around. Fluke I guess.. I was noting the number of posts you have here and where at TRF. I like Dream Theater more than Rush. I love Dream Theater, i think they are the greatest band to ever exist. I am also a member on Dream Theater Forums. I am not pushing it in anyones face. So whats your problem? Why join a Rush board to talk only about DT? Especially since you already belong to dedicated DT forums? That's a serious question.

I don't think he has an agenda as suggested by gompers and secondly his posting seems to me to be reasonably friendly overall. maybe i missed something who knows? I went through the find all posts by this member and while i have not read all his posts, it appears he has posted in several other topics than just DT. Yeah 99% of his post are in MOTS and most but not all are about DT but i fail to see the problem. i thought you posted what you were interested in right? see for yourselves.

tangy Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 QUOTE (tick @ Sep 9 2011, 07:20 AM) It seems many members make quite the effort to come in this thread continuously just to rip on a band many of us love. That to me is spamming, and rude. and the primary reason why this thread is nearing 200 pages.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never quite understand that. "Oh, he's 20 and I'm 40, so he's too young for his opinion to be valid in this discussion, while I obviously have unsurpassable wisdom." That's because you're 17. 40 year olds possess greater wisdom than 20 year olds. It's borne of experience. I've always thought it would be nice to have two forums. One for adults, other for kids. Teenagers should respect their elders. I never would have said that when I was 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt say someone's opinions have no validity at a young age. although, my b.s. sensor is on hi alert because when I was about 17-20 I thought I knew everything and believed ppl in their forties were out of touch and pretty clueless. funny how perceptions change when you suddenly realize you're now one of those 40-something retards.

Teenagers should respect their elders. I never would have said that when I was 20. Well here's the thing. I have never once said anything about being wiser, or smarter than any adult. Not to mention I don't check the age of every poster before responding. It was the older party that made an age argument, seems to me like a defense mechanism. I didn't post in here to argue with old guys I have a great deal of respect for those older than myself, which happen to include Tick and the other posters that defended me. Considering they are mature adults who are wiser than me as you said, I am assured it was not just a stupid "teenager" moment. PS: The BS sensor is a great tool in forums. I use it on myself sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's focus on the how good this new album actually is. Im about 7 listens in to it and IMO its their best material since SFAM. The songwriting is off the charts, the playing is not only amazing, more importantly the solos fit well into the overall songs (and you can actually hear Myung!) and LaBrie sounds better than ever.
