For god's sake guys, chill.
I think some of you are really missing the point here: you jump down bedrock's throat for pissing on your taste in music, and then you start going on about how shit and boring progressive is? Isn't that a bit hypocritical? If you have a problem with what bedrock says, then don't start flaming him, or making death threats, just tell him why you think he's wrong, in civil, rational terms. I think JayD and vmc have responded in the right way here, look to them as an example. That's how things should be done in this place, and less of the bandwagon "flame the guy who disagrees with us" mentality.
Besides, I think the problem here is not enough of you can see the humour in bedrock's post. I think it's pretty clear that bedrock doesn't particularly like PVD, but some of you need to bone up on your understandings of tongue-in-cheek humour. Bedrock was taking the piss, to use an Australian term, and you took him too seriously. Perhaps bedrock didn't make it clear that he enjoys being contentious, but then he shouldn't have to. If you don't understand the motivation behind a post, then perhaps it's best not to reply to it.
Personally, I think that if bedrock was banned for this, then this site needs to re-order its priorities. If he was banned for being unnecessarily racist, sexist or vulgar - or if he was spamming the forum every day and night - then I could understand it, but I think it's pretty average that he should be banned for calling PvD a weiner and rather bluntly criticizing his productions. People crap on DJ's all the time here - some more than others - but it's certainly no reason to ban them. Who'd be left on this site if we banned everyone who spoke their mind in the same way that bedrock just did?
So I'm with Philby then. To whoever did it, please unban the cynical bastard.
