February 20, 201411 yr Oricon, I'm sorry I don't want to get personal, just laying out there~ You have this manner in which you post, I think other members have picked up as well. AS IF YOU'RE RIGHT, YOU KNOW EVERYTHING, DISAGREE WITH ME AND YOU'RE SHIT. I've noticed when you can't meet your duties on the forum and you have this "Not my fault I'm waiting tables" attitude, as if we don't have day jobs. Obv you don't say that but it truly comes across that way, this is the first time you've actually described it as an opinion, you post it as it's fact. I could understand it to an extent in the Gaga thread, but throwing names like 'xenophobic' 'despise' and 'narrow-minded' around now is justification of your attitude and inability to deal with others views and reasonable personal taste. If you could sit down for a while without a stubborn mind set you'd realize that you are what you say on others. Someone who doesn't like foreign language songs with good reason is xenophobic, narrow-minded and you despise them? Please mister this is not how a debate rolls. Like I said, maybe if you weren't as stubborn in opinion and quick to throw words like that around, situations like this won't even have happened. No dig at you but please for someone of your age to have such a sense of arrogance is a bit off-putting, I am 21 and not imbecile you don't have to talk down on me in the second person. Do you seriously expect me to google translate foreign language songs, doing otherwise is xenophobia like you said. Get real man! I don't click with the majority of foreign language songs end of, why would I feel the need to chore myself with google translating them? We all appreciate music in different ways and for different reason. I might as well tell any random on the forum to not dismiss 'What Does the Fox Say?' because there is a deeper meaning to the song which they won't understand until they google translate it, even though the person generally dislikes that type of song. :cheer: I think if you hang around for a while when I actually do POST something lengthy, that the attitude of "I'm right, you're wrong end of" is absent from myself as an individual very much. Meeting duties on the forum has NOTHING to do with this debate whatsoever so the upbringing of this topic is completely unnecessary. Yes, I am a flop moderator who am behind on some schedules but do I deny it and blame it on stuff? Not really. Why don't you go and cause an uproar with other moderators of the forum who are also behind in schedule with some of their duties due to their real life commitments or other factors as well rather than just pinpoint myself? It's also a bit ironic this has been said considering you hold the record of having to host the lengthiest results thread and despite me having difficulties with hosting a results thread while waiting tables I still manage to successfully had it completed within the single night and multi-tasked too. If anything, that evening which I held the results I don't recall myself posting anything in that manner where I laid the blame on another subject due to in-cooperating my duties real life and on the forum and instead I apologised for the "mess" which was caused as a result. I'm stubborn yet someone who classifies all foreign language tracks as unlistenable due to the language barrier isn't. Makes perfect sense! It all gets a bit personal when you do bring age as well onto this debate as well so if you don't quite mind, I shall go ahead myself if I may in retaliation. ^_^ Someone who is 21 and had a massive hissy fit when you failed to vote in the final results thus acquired a ban in the next edition and subsequently "took a break from Buzzjack" is all forms of mature actions for those around the age, really? No-one told you to google translate each and every song which is foreign but rather if you liked a particular melody of a song you simply cannot understand, some individuals insisted you CAN google tracks for their lyrics if they are of a superb quality to you. Learn to read. For a final note, if you wish to continue you this feel free to message my inbox instead of continuing here and if not then let us all "agree to disagree".
February 20, 201411 yr Oh gosh, there's so much hostility http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/images/51775000/jpg/_51775318_konniehuq_pa.jpg
February 20, 201411 yr I used to have pretty much the same view on non-english songs as Kath. Now I think of all the new music I've heard in 2014 so far, over half has been non-english. Envole Moi was easily my favourite entry of last year (Tone aside obviously) and I actively seek out stuff that isn't in English, actually preferring it at times! Lyrics are only part of the puzzle to me and a damn fine vocalist and melody will be a damn fine vocalist and melody regardless of what language the song is sung in.
February 20, 201411 yr PM'ing someone who talks down to you and has that type of sickening attitude would be a chore tbh http://i59.tinypic.com/1sz7mo.png ttfn~
February 21, 201411 yr Author At long last (and with a newfound hatred of SoundCloud) RECAP 02 The first time I made this recap it was about 2 minutes longer. But it's better this way as it's roughly the same length as the first one now. Sorry about how quiet Vivaldi is on this, the perils of a YouTube rip I guess. Both recaps are also in the first post BTW!
February 21, 201411 yr (tho srsly i don't think oricon talks down to anyone so bye) languages are cool 👨
February 21, 201411 yr btw this reminds me to bring up yet ANOTHER issue :o Why is Oricon AQing even though Bra is hosting the thing? And don't give me all that bull that BOTH are hosting because 99% of the work is done by Bra here. I think we did agree that hosts AQ no matter if they won or not?!
February 21, 201411 yr btw this reminds me to bring up yet ANOTHER issue :o Why is Oricon AQing even though Bra is hosting the thing? And don't give me all that bull that BOTH are hosting because 99% of the work is done by Bra here. I think we did agree that hosts AQ no matter if they won or not?! I think the winner of the contest has priority for AQing, for example in October last year Ramrynia were hosting but Aeroche were the only autoqualifier. Clearly Ramrynia didn't mind not autoqualifying as they finished 3rd in that contest. If there was an even number of participants then Persephonia would AQ as well as Daehun, but that would be because they finished 2nd, not because they're hosting. (plus I think Daehun will be doing the final and the final results so it is a joint effort)
February 21, 201411 yr I think we need to be more consistent. In BJSC18 1st and 3rd (host) places AQd and even though I finished 2nd, priority was given to the host. So who gets priority? Host or higher placed in the last contest country?
