Originally posted by DJ_Science I voted for other because thats what I listen to most of the time. I'm a huge Prog head but I do enjoy trance.

I think most will agree with you Science, although some will battle till the end cause the truth hurts.

Not just Prog but other genres as well

Hey guys, isn't this my poll? I wanted to see if people prefered trance or other forms of EDM. That's what I wanted to see, and that's why I created the poll.

If you wanted to make a poll to see if people prefer trance, EDM, or both, then make your own poll. This was for my own personal curiosity. I would have appreciated it if you asked me before you modified my poll. I don't appreciate this at all.

If i were you, id just delete this and create it again the way YOU wanted it to originally be. It wasnt distasteful or offensive, so why should anyone have the right to change someones thread?? I like most of the things the mods do as far as keeping things peaceful around here, but as far as this poll goes....i think they've overstepped their (or his) boundries.

Originally posted by itikia My reasoning is that this poll is a general question directed at the whole of TOTA. After read a couple of the first posts, it seemed like some of the TOTA's felt that the poll didn't give enough options, therefore I added a third. My intention wasn't to take over or modify Highroller's thread or poll but just to add a 3rd category.. I apologize to all who were offended by my modification! itikia

Itikia, I actually voted for the third option, so the usefulness of it is not in question. I appreciate you making an apology. Let me expand on my concern, and please don't take this personally. I realize the job of being a mod is a fairly thankless one and a very labour-intensive one, so for that I thank you as I think the site is much more civil than it was a year ago when it was a free for all. But I have felt at times that you might have taken certain things a little personally and perhaps a more heavy-handed approach than I would consider necessary.

Now, in this one case, I really think you were way out of line. I realize your great intentions, but your reasoning as to why a third option would be useful is not at question here. You and I and Fir3start3r all think the perfect poll would have had that option, which is why we are all free to make our own poll the way we'd like it. Think of it as the radio beeping out part of someone's speech not because of profanity but because the editor thinks it could have been explained more clearly using other words!

Absolutely.

ITs a fucking poill on the INternet!!!!!!!

WHy are people crying about this change.

I can see why Highroller would get annoyed becuase he wanted to see the results of his own poll, but others here need to stick some ice cubes up their asses and chill.

told you guys trance would win.

Originally posted by Muff2K but it is indeed a battle now.... i see trance losing, esp. since HighRoller redefined what trance is.... somehow i feel many people dont know what trance is... but everyone knows it's what z103.5 plays now in between sean paul

haha...i love how u brought up z103...haha

i think the words z013 and trance shouldnt be put in the same sentence lol

btw i voted everything, cuz if i listen just to one genre, then i would get bored. i need to mix it up so i wont get tired of the same thing over and over

Cyrus King, in fact we are all extremely chill, so don't misunderstand. I for one was not upset, just surprised. I was just giving Itikia some constructive criticism because I know his intentions certainly could not have been to offend anyone, so I thought I would point out how it looked to me. We all can use some constructive criticism now and then as we don't always realize how our actions are seen by others. Remember, your best friends are always the ones who actually tell you when you screw up.

Don't really see what the big deal is as far as getting the right results from this poll is. If a person didn't vote in the 1st or the 2nd category they voted in the 3rd. When the poll wasn't changed they just wouldn't have voted at all. So in the end it comes out to the first two options still being proportionally correct to each other, so in fact it can be seen whether "trance or other forms of other forms of EDM" are preferred.

WOOOOO HOOOOOOO!

Originally posted by itikia I modified the poll to reflect some of the comments made. Even though most of do enjoy trance we also listen to other forms of EDM also. Therefore it only makes sense to have a category for these TOTAs. itikia

Dear TOTAs, you now know what option I chose!
Thanks for the answer to my and others comments earlier, just the option I've been looking for!

THANKS ITIKIA!!!

Originally posted by Muff2K this place is not strictly trance anymore.... it's a mix of everything - and it's great.

I consider TA now to be a place for someone who is a TA at heart, but may also listen to other forms of EDM. I mean, face it - why sign up on dozens of websites for all EDM music types when you can get just one super account where every single EDM genre is appreciated (except, well, for cheesy eurodance: past 1998 crap)! I love this site more day by day!
