Metal Reviews

The Iron Maiden forums are shutting down.... :cry:

I learned of most of the bands I listen to now from there...been a member there since 1999 so it's quite depressing to see it go....

Damn, that sucks.

but, Welcome!

Welcome, although once or twice I checked out the Maiden forums and they looked crap. :o

Over the past two to three years they did start to crap out. You had to fight the n00bs starting flame wars and such, but the usual good people were still there.

Why are they shutting down? If they're still being used their should be no problem. Or am I wrong?

You oughta check it out. It's turned into insanity over there.

Reasons? They won't give an official reason, but here's the few we all beleive.

1. Sanctuary is cutting off forums that use a ton of bandwidth to save money.

2. Management is still trying to keep the fact that the Death on the Road DVD is defective under wraps.

3. Trolling and spamming on the boards.

Flames wars are gay! Now fuck off, you piece of shit.

welcome

Haha sweet, a refugee. Course over here it's nothing but wankers, misfits, and fuck-offs. (Just the way the Gods of Metal intended.)

CHEERS!

Fuck you all!! :twisted:

P.S. anyone hear the new In Flaymez CD? It's pretty hardcore but not as good as STYE..LOLZ. :roll:

I detect irony!

The ironing is deeeelicious!

Welcome. Although I hope you don't take offence at me saying I hope a big crowd don't follow you across.

Welcome indeed. We expect you to repay our generosity in giving you asylum by cleaning the toilets. Get to work.

And don't start any of that living of our benefits system stuff. We're all wise to the ways of your kind.

I agree. Blabbermouth posted about that board going down! :shock:

Yeah?! Jesus, man the barricades! :shock:

Ho-hum. Death on the Road defective? Tell me more, I was gonna get that!

After you get to Brave New World the pictures skips constantly until the end of the show (at least it does on both discs of my friend's copy). Sound unaffected.

hehe, I didn't advertise where I was going. No need to bring a squad of trolls with me now, is there?

Toilet duty? Oh shit.....

My DOTR DVD works fine til it hits the end of Rainmaker, than it kicks out to the song selection screen. It also kicks back out at the end of Brave New World and Paschendale. Picture and sound are fine though, just gotta remember to next track at the end of those three songs or you gotta go through the menu to select the next track.
