I'm just sick of the elitist attitude displayed by some people over here. You need to embrace those who listen to the same music, even if they don't understand all the different genres instead of bashing them for being noobs. I mean christ, 13am you registered THIS month and already you're stepping up on your soapbox acting like you're better than everyone else.
Do you scream at someone when you're trying to teach them something? I would hope not. If you're hellbent on everyone understanding the intricacies of EDM genres, and it bothers you this much, why don't you calmly go about educating them, instead of making your font as large as possible?
Then to point out that everyone at the TA Forum is laughing at them? That's just childish. I'd much rather hang out with a bunch of noobs than a group of elitist assholes. Maybe I'll start calling everything techno so then you can take your angst out on me.
Blow me.

This is the second time someone mentioned that quote. Do either of you realize he was being facetious? Or would that be too high a level of thinking from someone from a community that, as we all know, consists entirely of "noobs"?

That's cuz they are right. Trance is convergence of Detroit techno and acid house.

Correct! However, what is know today as techno is NOT equivalent to what is today know as trance. Therein lies the confusion at the heart of this debate. it's like evolution.. just because chimpanzees and humans share a common ancestor, it does not mean humans are chimpanzees.... nor does it meant that they are unrelated.. get my point?
Those two quotes nailed it right on the head IMO. As to why somebody wants to spend so much energy on a debate like this, and carrying it on to different forums no less, is beyond me.
