Dear God, don't bump this thread- I had a horrible feeling he'd returned. One for all the hall of shame alongside the likes of JIF, 80swereok etc., and in fact he might have been the worst.
I do think old threads should be binned (after a year or something) like they were on the old board, particularly useless ones like this. But he put these YouTube clips everywhere.
And if it weren't for this thread, I might not have known Cheetos Magazine had a new EP out. I really like those guys!
Totally serious, btw.
But no, I don't miss the incessant Bandcamp/YouTube postings.
Why was he banned? After a number of complaints in the 'new releases' thread about him clogging it up (which he was) he redirected his postings to this thread. I actually use his postings to search for new prog music and it saves me time, and have found many new bands / releases that I would not have found otherwise. So, to me anyway, he was a benefit to this site.
Well, first and foremost his behavior in other threads could be quite abusive and argumentative - not to mention the clogging up numerous threads with videos, starting his many list this(pick one!) threads, and pointless arguing over his interpretation of what genres and subgenres artists should and shouldn't be included with himself being the sole authority on what was right... For whatever good he did for finding new music it got obliterated with his behavior.

I would also add that we were incredibly patient with him, largely because his posts were mostly on topic and about music. Most others would have not been given that much latitude. But he only has himself to blame and could honestly not give a shit about us, our opinions, and the established etiquette and protocol on this site. I also tend to get embarrassed frankly when I see people in their 50s and 60s act like children. In the end it's a waste given his passion (obsession) for music. But let's move on.
WANTED: Sig-worthy quote.
^ I was shocked at how patient you guys were with svet.
He was booted from Prog Archives for the same aberrant behavior. Eventually, he'll be posting to himself on his own private forum in a van down by the river.

Have to say that it feels so great to browse this and other forums here on PE and NOT be subjected to endless posts of bandcamp/YouTube/ subgenre pontification by His Svetness.
I'm not sure how many others here agree, but now that he's gone, I personally would love to see this thread disappear forever.
Of course, I'm aware that the fact that I'm currently posting in it is prolonging that potential outcome...
This should do it
