What are the worst generals on Sup Forums? And the best? My votes/reasoning:
WORST:
>/RYM/ - /soc/ shit, plain and simple. no music discussion whatsoever, only RYM melodrama. doesn't belong on the board. >/noise/ - underage overload, nothing but kids who have no idea what they're talking about and spamming awful Bandcamp and Soundcloud crap. zero education on the genre and its history, zero capability to find music on their own(the same 10-15 meme albums from Sup Forums and RYM get discussed over and over and over, and seeing people talk about big black, animal collective and lightning bolt under the impression that they are relevant to the general's purpose is not uncommon), they can't even explain what it is they like about noise and instead just get belligerent when asked. no other general on Sup Forums is as unqualified to discuss its subject. no reason to exist. >/daily/ - smug "post-ironic" tripfag circlejerk, doesn't even belong on Sup Forums due to how little time is actually spent talking about music(and even when they do it their conversations are on the level of 15-year old RYM reviewers)and how much is spent on circlejerking and memes, somehow for all the effort they put into crafting unique musical identities for themselves they all listen to the same artists and fall back entirely on spoonfeeding when it comes to hearing new music
BEST:
>/trad/ - sincere and educated people and discussion. the nature of the music and its lack of meme or "edgy" potential keeps idiots away. >/bleep/ - funny and smart crowd. quality banter. aside from /metal/, the only general which knows how to treat dilettantes and babies begging for spoonfeeding(by telling them to fuck off) >/metal/ - a wide variety of posters with a wide variety of interests makes for a varied and dynamic general. even with all the shitposting, still one of the better places on the board. >/jazz/ - same deal as /trad/. unfortunately not as regular as it once was.
Thoughts?
Jacob Williams

Kayden Thompson

Thomas Scott
Is this implying that /kpg/ isn't the worst thing on this entire site?

lel these are basically /noise/, only expanded so that the people in them can show that they not only don't know anything about noise, but that they also don't know anything about any other "experimental" music either
Robert Adams
kpg is the only general that stays on topic.
Chase Cruz
On the previous thread people were posting some legitimately interesting albums that were never posted before though, some which aren't even on soulseek. /Noise/ just circle jerks the same albums over and over.
"I like noise! Kazuma Kubota, The Rita, Yoshihiro Kikuchi, the list goes on!"
Christian Collins
"Yellow Swans, I Am A Lake Of Burning Orchids, Consumer Electronics, I could be naming names all week here!"
