Ps3, you may be mad that we don't accept your opinions...but you're pulling the same bullshit.

You've never seen me make a Beatles thread. Let's pretend for a second that Taylor Swift is as good as The Beatles, or that she's as amazing of a songwriter as Paul McCartney. Do you see me going around in Off Topic, making half a dozen threads about McCartney and praising his name whenever possible? Hell, when it comes to chart success, the two can't even be compared. Paul McCartney was a member of the biggest band of all time, wrote the most covered song of all time, and is still playing live concerts and releasing hit albums well into his 60s. And yet I don't think I've ever made a single thread about him. I may have discussed liking his music in some threads, but I'm not fanatical about him.

That's the difference. I don't think many of us hate Taylor Swift as much as you think, but we are SO FUCKING TIRED of you shoving her down our throats with every other post/thread you make. And we're also FUCKING SICK of you just taking random modern artists who have had a couple years of chart success and comparing them to some of the greatest music artists and song writers of all time. What's next, Britney Spears is the new Beethoven? You can't sink much lower at this point.

Your arguments are also tired and boring. If we point out quality, you point out chart success. If we point out the chart success of past artists, you point out quality (usually with a quip about how Taylor Swift is as good of a song writer as some timeless musician such as McCartney, Lennon, Bob Dylan, etc.). And if we get mad at you and insult Taylor Swift (which is really not nearly as bad as your constant and overzealous praise of her), you just claim that we don't like her because we're sexist.

Fuck that.

Educate yourself. Listen to music from different time periods. Hell, listen to Moonlight Sonata, I don't care. I'm just fucking sick of you and your constant praise of a singer who hasn't done much yet. Maybe Taylor Swift will be as timeless and terrific as Paul McCartney, but she sure as hell isn't know, so stop talking about her so freakin' much.

Okay and don't be mad that I don't accept your opinions.

She is just as good. You're right! She's nowhere near as successful yet, but shes on the rise and she is a huge huge star right now, just as the beatles were when they first stated.

Britney Spears is an icon.. You cannot deny that, cause she is amazing and is a world wide sex symbol and has the highest first week sales ever by a female artist.

I'm tired of the same arguments here that any music thats not Pink Floyd or Beatles is shit music, cause thats not true at all.

Educate myself? I think somepeople need to learn how to take other peoples opinions without crying about it. If someone doesn't like my opinion they can either accept it or they can pout and stomp their feet like you are doing right now. Montana, I like you, but I don't think its right that you are attacking me.

I am mad because you just take everyone else's opinions and don't absorb them at all. It's almost like you have plugs in your ears solely for when someone makes a legitimate counter-argument, and then you take them out momentarily to shill for Taylor Swift some more.

And please don't confuse The Beatles with Taylor Swift when it comes to success. Michael Jackson has the best selling album of all time and was selling millions of albums before he was even 10 years old, and even he didn't sell as many albums or was as successful as The Beatles. The Beatles were stars when they first started, just like every artist that goes on to be successful. They have to start somewhere. It doesn't mean Taylor Swift's career will follow anywhere close to the career of The Beatles (and it won't). And Britney Spears isn't an icon anymore. She was big earlier, but just look at how quickly she faded. And despite her crazy success for a couple of years, she didn't end up anywhere near as successful as The Beatles, and no one would even compare the two in quality.

The thing is, it's your fault for drawing hate towards Taylor Swift. None of us were going around making "I hate Taylor Swift threads" before you started talking about her. It's just that you had to shill for her in a dozen different threads and make ridiculous comparisons between her and famous music artists. And the thing that a lot of people keep telling you is that while there is good music besides Pink Floyd and the Beatles (and other past bands), we don't blabb about them ALL THE TIME. I'm sure Taylor Swift is a very good singer and songwriter, and I congratulate her on her musical success. But don't making ridiculous fucking comparisons with her and past singers. You have no idea how her career will measure up. You don't see me comparing Aretha Franklin to the Beatles, and Aretha is 10 times the singer and music artist than Taylor Swift, penis or not.

I urge you to educate yourself because you really do have no clue what you're talking about. Let me continue my ownage of you by quoting you here:

In this post, you claim that you listen to music for your age. There's no such thing. There's music that's popular during your youth, but that doesn't mean you should be restricted to it. And if what you say is true, then answer this: What the fuck do you know about The Beatles? If you're listening to Taylor Swift all the time, and you've probably only taken a listen to a couple of Beatles songs, how can you draw a comparison? You really can't. You also shill for other female artists and I never see you praise a male artist, and you seem to believe that the success of artists like Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga is some kind of holy crusade against the penis's domination of the billboard charts. I really wonder if you hate your own gender that much.

Additionally, you whine and cry all the time. I even remember you making a thread asking if a lot of the members here hate you, and you bitch all the time about people hating on Taylor Swift. You even just did it in your response to me! And it's great that you like me, but I really don't like you. You're just annoying.

Montana. This is the best written thing I've ever seen on VGChartz, literally. Kudos.



Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

Montanah's second quote is way more ownage then this one but I just want to re-instate that:

 

You are missing the whole fucking point he's making. Let me condensate that in short, easy to understand sentences in the vain hope you learn something:

We don't hate on her untill you flooded this board with threads on her. We are sick and tired of this constant flood and desire you to stop it. is that so difficult to understand?

If you don't understand this now I will continue my own cooked up campaign of "Ps3 is a viral marketeer for Sony BMG" or whatever label she is on. And I won't quit untill you are outted as one.

Michael Jackson IMO is the biggest star of all time and has influenced more people than the Beatles IMO. Britney Spears is still huge, I don't know where you got that information from, but its wrong.

Well my opinion shouldn't make other people hate. If that was the case I'd hate a lot more things in life that people love. It's called keeping your own opinion and not having it sway by what other people think. It makes people sound like children. Aretha is amazing yes, I also think shes greater than the beatles. I just think that Taylor has the potential to be one of the greats.

I made one thread cause I didn't want anyone here to hate me. I made one thread asking if anyone did, big deal, that's nothing huge. It's the people like you who cry and complain when the posts don't cater to your opinion.

Harsh monti........very harsh.

I don't think it was harsh at all. They were saying their opinion and I'm going to take an opinion the way it should be and not scream and cry cause my opinion isn't a fact and neither is anyone elses here.

@montana - too many taylor threads. you did good with shutting that down

LOL!! You are the biggest hypocrite EVER!!!! You sent me a message the other night asking if I was going to be up late because you needed a distraction. You wanted to see my threads, so you need to stop. I also don't see anyone being shut down?

Thats what they all say.. Just because the beatles aren't nominated anymore doesn't mean they aren't anything. They honor amazing music.

It's pretty sad that all the people who hate on her... Would attack someone who said one wrong word about say... The Beatles? Talk about double standards...

Let people like the music they like, if you dont like it... You dont have to enter the threads and you dont have to listen to it. Simple as that. If you dont like the Off Topic being filled with "Taylor Swift this..." threads, dont bump the fucking things with "OMG not another one!" comments.

Some people REALLY piss me off ¬_¬

Feeling the need to make an official thread because someone is hyped up on a star is pathetic IMO. If you dont like the threads, dont post in the damn things.

It's called sexism! Just cause Taylor is a female she can't be as good as the beatles! She pens her music, writes, producers, plays instruments and is easily one of the most creative people in years. It bothers some people.

 

It upsets me too! Just because its a video game website that means nothing! This is an off topic section where anything is possible. If these were Beatles threaads people would think its okay. It's a huge contradiction.

Se-sexism!?

N-no! Are you just making up excuses?

Yes! Sexism! I believe if Taylor was a male, the people on this site would be jumped up to her buying 10 copies of her CD.

 

No excuses. Just spitting reality.

So the fact that my library of 10,000 songs is 55% female means nothing, eh?

You're so dumb it's not even worth arguing.

No, not really.. I have movies with Vin Diesel in it and I think he is a horrible actor...

You don't know me, so thats ignorance.

 

 



 

Reputation proceeds me, they told you I'm crazy, I swear I don't love the drama it loves me <3

BUY TAYLOR'S NEW ALBUM REPUTATION!!

ANYWAYS!!! There is a Taylor thread now, if it upsets you to talk about her. Stay out of the thread instead of just trying to start an argument.

T Swiftttttttttttttttttttt :)

Seriously, not everyone thinks that the beatles are god. In fact in my opinion they are meh, average, and borderline shit. I may not like swift and GaGa music either, but it needs to be said that everyone deserves to have their own opinion.
So to leave you with your superiority complex:

Damn, what's your problem?

I didn't make a scene, I just wrote a long, angry rant (something I enjoy doing). There wasn't anything childish about it. And while we're on the subject, I'd hardly say you're the model of maturity anyways. It's sad to see that you don't like The Beatles. I'm sure you have legitimate reasons, but I'm sure you're also not saying that whatever artists you like are as amazing or The Beatles or as revolutionary (or something along those lines).

I don't have a superiority complex, so shut up and stay out of business that isn't your own.

Meh, we were all thinking it.  Thank God I don't have to open up Off Topic and see it filled with Taylor Threads but I'm sure Ps3 will find some new hip new flavor of the week to flood the forum with soon enough.
