why are the majority of last.fm users fucking retards?

Derek · 10.18.2009, 05:42 PM

That site is overloaded with 4chan lameasses with anime avatars. Just another popularity contest on the internet sadly.

Derek · 10.18.2009, 05:43 PM

Oh and I'm sick of seeing "hipster garbage" on every band's shoutbox ever. Give it a rest.

auto-aim · 10.18.2009, 05:55 PM

it's because the majority of the population are retards.

I watched an episode of xfactor the other day - and fuck me, people say that I'M into some weird shit. I think we have to accept that we're doomed and getting shallower day by day. but i don't know scientist still exist and shit - thats a lot smarter that I'll ever be... but they probably have very poor taste in music also.

Yep.

Though maybe the annoying users of last.fm aren't retards exactly, more lame pseudo-intellectuals.

I don't exaggerate when I say this place is one of more friendlier places to talk about vaguely interesting music.

Last.fm is a joke in itself, really -- I love the site, but is it any surprise that people make a joke of last.fm? "Wow, nice, showing your musical taste to the world -- good for you! Who cares?" I think that's what everyone's trying to say. It's probably just best not to get into the interactive part of it.

Seandi · 10.18.2009, 06:42 PM

because they not are streaming K666

HaydenAsche · 10.18.2009, 06:42 PM

It's a social networking site. What do you expect?

Last.FM still remains one of my favorites sites on the net, although I don't use it at all for the "social" aspect of it. Why? Because most of the users are indeed fucking retards. It's such a great idea for a site but a pity that so many people act like idiots on it. Deviantart is the same thing: great idea, bad community.

atsonicpark · 10.18.2009, 06:50 PM

wellcharge · 10.18.2009, 07:01 PM

99% of shoutboxes don't say hipster garbage on them

maybe you should quit going to the pages of so much hipster garbage?

atsonicpark · 10.18.2009, 07:05 PM

The internet is a joke.

dirty bunny · 10.18.2009, 07:18 PM

I liked audioscrobbler better. I don't actually interact with anybody on last.fm besides people I knew already. What's there to say? "Gee, I really like your taste in music". "Thanks". End of conversation.

just stick your head out of the window and tell me what you see.

then tell me why you'd expect any different on the interwebs.

tw2113 · 10.18.2009, 07:55 PM

I like that it keeps track of my listening habits, but I don't get very social there

Derek · 10.18.2009, 07:59 PM

I actually just uninstalled the last.fm scrobbler thing. Not because I hate the users of the site but because I was thinking, "why would I want people to know exactly what I'm listening to?" I don't see the point.

atsonicpark · 10.18.2009, 08:14 PM

Because it makes (often-very good) suggestions for other things to listen to
, based on your listening habits.

But if you just add artists to your playlist, it does the same thing.

Derek · 10.18.2009, 08:25 PM

I have never used the recommendation thing however so...

EDIT: and I just checked and I seem to already be into a lot of artists they're recommending me.
