What do opinions have to do with it? Of course if someone lists DTD, Liberator and Immersion as the top 3 techno legends, it's because they don't know what they're on about.Quote:

what gives you the right to come in and say they're wrong?
its not about who's right and who's wrong. i'm sure the point of this thread was for people to share their opinions with others, not for everyone to come to a decision.
Exactly! :clap:
Not exactly at all.
The title of the thread is "Top three legends of techno?". MARK EG did not say "who are YOUR real legends" anywhere that I can see. He did say "who are you real legends" but that's meaningless. He also said "I just mean from the last 20 years. People who changed the face of music. List only three.". So I repeat, anyone who listed DTD, Liberator, Immersion etc, simply does not know what they're talking about. None of those people have changed the face of music. A temporary zit, perhaps.
And Si, who am I to knock what you and others have typed? Someone who isn't as ignorant as you and others, I suppose.
that was obviously a spelling mistake.Quote:

i havent posted in this thread because quite simply i havent liked techno long enough to decide who my real legends are. but if i'm quite honest, its people like yourself who deter me from posting in this thread and this section.
why does this snobbery have to exist? at the end of the day we all love music. who cares that someone elses taste is different to mine?
why cant people be a bit more open-minded?

It has nothing to do with snobbery and nothing to do with taste. It's a question of understanding the point of the thread. If you get all upset because someone points out a few facts you'd probably benefit from staying off forums and communicating with humans altogether, as this happens quite a lot. It's part of the thing we call life.
Or pretentious, or egotistical, or born old skool like you must have been :lol:Quote:

Why do you feel the need to say that anyone who has listed DAVE the Drummer, Lawrie Immersion, Chris Liberator, etc; doesn't know what they are talking about? Your comments always seem to be challenging someones views, like you want an arguement all the time. I typed who I see as legendary, the people & places that changed my life. Its is MY opinion. I am aloud opinions & I am aloud my own views, same as you and everyone else. YOU have your own opinions on who you see as legenday. I'm not going to diss you for what you type, so why feel the need to diss me and 'others' about what we feel on the subject matter?Quote:

It's because they are not the top 3 legends within techno, and they have not changed the face of music, they have just added to the pile that gathers beneath those who actually have changed the face of music. Therefore, anyone who cites them as the top 3 legends in techno DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.
Understand now???
so you think it is a 'fact' to say that someone is badly informed and a sycophant (sp)?Quote:

And furthermore I find your comments very insulting and belittling. This section can be daunting enough for someone like me who isnt as 'clued-up' about techno, without your pretentious attitude.
Sir yes sir! :roll:
That was for Mr Death on a Stick by the way, not you Kitten! :lol:Quote:
