Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

I wanna hear her songs in the genres of:
Serbian Turbo Folk
Euro Dance
Doo-Wop
Bebop
Ex-Yu Rock
Bosnian Sevdalinka
Techno
Dance/House
New Jack Swing
Taylor Swift bebop album when?
Hell if she releases a chiptune album, I might listen
i keep mixing up taylor swift and miley sirus
Her Black Metal era was truly refreshing.
Honestly the Punk Goes Pop albums have taught me that some of her songs translate super well to heavier styles
I Knew You Were Trouble - We Came As Romans
You Belong With Me - For All Those Sleeping
I Don't Wanna Live Forever - Ice Nine Kills
Also honerable mention, Ice Nine Kill's cover of Animals by Maroon 5 is brilliant and also does a good job of making fun of how weird the original music video is
that time she released that album under the name 'tool' and it topped her own in the charts surely must've been a career highlight :D
Schlagercore, cinematic-nederdoom-sludgeterror, gospel-grindcore-dub, what is the last one?
what is the last one?
Wiener Klassik
ITT: people jerking off so hard about Taylor Swift being shit they miss the avatar reference with the covers probably being Water, Fire, Earth and Air. And she's not even shit. Maybe the stuff that makes it to the radio idk i don't listen to radio but tortured poets department is good for certain moods and so are probably her other albums. It's no longer school (at least i hope so) and you don't have to hate pop just out of principle. While not in the same playlist you can listen to Dream Theatre, Ayreon, Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo
Where’s the fifth element? Plaese halp
I'm a man in my 30s and I fucking love her music.
I really don't give a squirt of piss about her as a person but she consistently makes music I enjoy listening to.
Ok Swiftie
Ooh sick burn
beans, bacon, whiskey, and lard
Saw them when they were just a front bar band
I'm old enough to remember the days before the band had Lard holding down the beat on his accordion.
Now do Extratone
So she’s mastered Air Music, Water Music, Earth Music and Fire Music? She might be ready to take on the Fire Music Lord.
My cabbage music!
Idk about water, but earth, wind and fire are already covered by one group

Taylor swift Gregorian chant album when?
Wasn't that her big album 999 everyone went crazy for?
Mongolian, but I feel a collaboration with The HU is plausible while unlikely.
The four genres I can see based on the pictures and nothing else:
- radio pop
- retrocore
- second wave black metal
- celine dion
The primary 4 genres as I know them are
- Rock, Rap, Pop, and/or Singer/Songwriter
- New Age
- Roots Reggae
- Chamber Choir/Madrigals
Very nice - however you’re forgetting the generation defining ‘alternative forward slash punk’ genre that covers everything from sex pistols to aled jones doing the snowman theme

I'm a drums teacher and I'm this close to breaking my sticks with my bare teeth if any of my students request learning another shitty Swift song ever again. Or maybe I'll smash the window in by throwing my kit at it. Or myself. Or my students...
I call this piece, "the sound of ~~music~~ defenestration"
I've definitely been there. I think it's like what English teachers say when they see their students reading whatever latest YA drivel has been published (e.g. Twilight):
At least they want to read something.
Encourage their passions, even if you really hate what they're currently doing with it, and trust that eventually they'll get a better sense of taste when they learn more about what else is out there.
Take the "lead a horse to water" idiom but add the corollary that the horse definitely will not drink if no one leads it to water in the first place.

Even as a non-pop music hater I can't imagine going to a drumming class and wanting to play that all the time, it's just not a drum centric genre. Very few pop songs have prominent or interesting percussion.
I would imagine a drum class would be full of metal, jazz, punk, funk, etc. fans.
Most of my students are kids / teenagers and especially group classes can be somewhat annoying every now and then. But at the same time it's very rewarding. Sure, sometimes I'm a bit underwhelmed by their taste in music, but hey, I've been a dumbass kid as well back in the day. I love the lessons when I'm not taking any requests, just giving a big lecture about different music genres and then getting into the drumming zone. I teach one advanced class every 2nd week (beginners class is every week) and I love seeing my students light up when it comes to proper challenging stuff. One is a fun nu metal fan who once asked me if I knew how to play "Word up". You mean the Korn version or the actual original? Lol, his mind was blown away after hearing the original for the first time, and that was the original song plus me on the drums playing along to it. :D I might've had shitty parents, but oh dear, both of them had good taste in music and thus I know boatloads of cool stuff all the way down from the mid 50s up until the early 90s.
Not a musician, so honest question. Is her music actually bad from a theory perspective? I mean its unlikely to be ground breaking. But for pop, my assumption would be that it's more towards the upper end.

Give away her wealth in an effort to curb the devastation of climate change.
Edit: imagine how much she could lobby in Congress. She could change legislation for the next decade. But she doesn't. No billionaire does.
