(this is the thread where you talk about the subject header. i don't really care, i just wanted to post that.)

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:39 (twenty-three years ago)

J. Lu roxors. All you Dismemberment Plan fans flying in for the final show will realize this (if you haven't already, and if you have, rah!).

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:41 (twenty-three years ago)

Alex in NYC gets way more shit than he deserves. He's funny and has genuine convictions (which seem to be no-nos at times around here). Sometimes I'm convinced that he's upping the vitriol factor by 10 just to annoy more people, which would be great if it were true. There's a lot of Alex in all of us, but we all suppress it! Embrace yr inner Alex!!!

― Yanc3y (ystrickler), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:42 (twenty-three years ago)

Haha

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:42 (twenty-three years ago)

that's a frightening thought yancey.

but still, alex is OK.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:45 (twenty-three years ago)

I would like to say hurrah for all of the great Nicks on this board in their many forms. Any idea how many there are?

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Counting both Nicks and Nic(h)oles? Nickalicious, Nick Mirov, Nick Currie aka Momus, Nichole Graham, Nicole...all good folks. (And since I haven't said it before about Nickalicious, while I initially thought he was a bit of a random character on ILM, realizing that here's a guy who not only pursues what he loves with a passion but does so while raising a son -- and still being only 24 -- means he gets and deserves major respect.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:50 (twenty-three years ago)

there's a lot of marks & alexes too it seems, and a few seans

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:51 (twenty-three years ago)

I reckon everyone likes Alex don't they? I know I do. Surely for this to be underrated ILXers one person has to say they like a poster then ten have to say "no not him".

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:51 (twenty-three years ago)

Or her. ;-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:52 (twenty-three years ago)

Alex In NYC is great. It's like reading Che's Bolivian diaries, watching him post. He's easily in the top 5 ILXers at the moment.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:52 (twenty-three years ago)

15:
nick.K, Momus, Nick, NICKELATTI, N., nickie, Nick Mirov, nickn, Nick A., Nick Harte, Nick Southall,. nick ring, Nick W, nickalicious, Nick Kaufmann.

― Graham (graham), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:53 (twenty-three years ago)

paul scifi soul
michael wells
aaron grossman

piscesboy
writes interestingly

thatgirl in dallas

and geeta is underrated herself!

nick southall

and, where is emily chemistry experiment these days?

― gareth (gareth), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Alex in NYC is very likeable and his patience is saintly. He's always wrong about everything musical but that doesn't really matter, does it?

― Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:55 (twenty-three years ago)

I don't know Alex from NY very well, but I like Alex from Houston.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:55 (twenty-three years ago)

No, plus today he called me a "fatuous cheese eater".

Dom himself is always consistent in his hatred of Busted etc, I don't underrate that, not on ILM, no way.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:56 (twenty-three years ago)

I second J. Lu. At times, she is the voiec of reason on a thread, answering the factual questions that others are ignoring.
I like all of the ILXORS I have met besides J. Lu as well (some of them get their dues): Gareth, Mary (NYC), Geeta.
Ronan is cool too, but I think he gets his "props" and, if he doesn't, props to Ronan.
Also, jel makes me laugh.
Erik posts dope pictures. Thanks to him and everyone else who keep ***Arbitrary Thread Alert*** going.

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:57 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes, I love Erik's pix.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:57 (twenty-three years ago)

Looking at the top 50 posters Sarah Tigers-R-Us (or whatever her email is) stands out as someone who posts a lot of not-dumb stuff but never really gets attention for it.

(Haha there she is!)

― Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:59 (twenty-three years ago)

The genuinely underrated posters will not be mentioned in this thread.

― Andrew (enneff), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 16:59 (twenty-three years ago)

I heart Marcello. I think a lot of people do one way or another, but the hataz tend to be louder.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Aaron G should post more and also use AIM more! plur!

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:01 (twenty-three years ago)

But where are the listings of, er, 'rated' posters? Or overrated posters for that matter? This thread has obv. Turned into the former. But as soon as they are mentioned, they cease to be underrated. If you see what I mean. Er...

― Dave B (daveb), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:02 (twenty-three years ago)

i dig the lurkers. hail lurkers! you are wiser than i.

― g-kit (g-kit), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:02 (twenty-three years ago)

What about the people who don't get on the "best ILXers" threads AND ALSO DON'T GET A BIG UP HERE?!? Yes, I am thinking of me. *sobs*

But for what it's worth, mattdc is pretty cool. Is he underrated? Doesn't matter, he deserves props. McLusky and J.Lu too are pretty wicked.

― Mark C (Mark C), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:03 (twenty-three years ago)

Mark C is k underrated, he should be on a Best ILXers thread really....

― smee (smee), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:04 (twenty-three years ago)

Mark S and Tom are over-rated, they are merely pseuds.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:05 (twenty-three years ago)

can I just add that this is a good idea for a thread, Jess, and TIMELY!

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:05 (twenty-three years ago)

haha whoops

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:06 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm underrated, even though I never have anything good to contribute or say.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:06 (twenty-three years ago)

Nonsense, Chris. Yer cool. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:08 (twenty-three years ago)

Chris you are lying, at least about the latter part!

Jess: shame on you for doing a thread like this just when everyone needed it ;-)

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:08 (twenty-three years ago)

I know, i was looking for sympathy. hehe.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:08 (twenty-three years ago)

Qoolout, H 3 K, et al.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Those folks will live forever.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Chris, I swear I just mentioned you on a best of ILX thread in the past day or so...! You make me crack up.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:11 (twenty-three years ago)

hunta d!

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:12 (twenty-three years ago)

i kinda miss gale too but she was pretty highly rated in her day

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:13 (twenty-three years ago)

big dappa!

and yeah, gale got much love

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:14 (twenty-three years ago)

stevo is under-rated...props to him just cos its another steve - are there really only two of us?

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:15 (twenty-three years ago)

sean carruthers (I think)

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:16 (twenty-three years ago)

Anna, Andrew F, stevem

toby

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:19 (twenty-three years ago)

Although both Tim H and Martin Skidmore a are pretty high profile round here they never seem to get sufficiently bigged up for the voices of reason that they are.

I shall reciprocate with Mark C, plus Dave Boyle, Siegbran and Miss Laura.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:24 (twenty-three years ago)

andrew L

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:24 (twenty-three years ago)

thanks gareth, props at last. although i would like to know which fuxors underrate me.

― michael wells (michael w.), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:26 (twenty-three years ago)

I put "does not like Agoria" on your report card so I guess that's me.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Sean C, yes! And Mary, she's lovely.

― Mark C (Mark C), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:29 (twenty-three years ago)

thanks Ronan, i can now say i am over-rated

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:29 (twenty-three years ago)

sean carruthers (I think)
Stop thinking that, Ned says I'm overrated on the other thread. Seriously, though, most days I feel like I'm sort of striding right down the middle, like I don't make much of an impact at all. But low-profile is good, I guess.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:29 (twenty-three years ago)

I think I'm low-profile as well as a prolific poster...

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:30 (twenty-three years ago)

What's a good Gale thread?

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:32 (twenty-three years ago)

nudge nudge wink wink

― nathalie (nathalie), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:34 (twenty-three years ago)

los angeles artist (and sharp dresser) Spencer Chow should actually have a whole thread devoted to him.

― chaki (chaki), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:35 (twenty-three years ago)

I don't think you can include Mary, lovely as she is, after the monster M&F thread of love and appreciation the other week.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:35 (twenty-three years ago)

you will all be destroyed

― Tankpuss (Tankpuss), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Paul Eater!

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:39 (twenty-three years ago)

los angeles artist (and sharp dresser) Spencer Chow should actually have a whole thread devoted to him.

I'll go with that. Hmm...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:43 (twenty-three years ago)

forgot about dre? no. Jody Beth Rosen, on the other hand... no longer!

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Jody Beth Rosen is fabaceous

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:46 (twenty-three years ago)

Roger Fascist never posts on ILE, always ILM, but his posts are often detailed, informative or funny. And he gets across his love of the music very well.

― James Ball (James Ball), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Arthur.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Ben Williams.

― Lissa, Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:54 (twenty-three years ago)

hey ronan, i didn't say i don't like agoria just that i'm not wetting myself over it. you, you of all people...

― michael wells (michael w.), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:55 (twenty-three years ago)

i wasnt wetting myself over it, it's just a song afterall. "so much love to give" though, maybe a little bit, once or twice, very embarassing.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 17:56 (twenty-three years ago)

hrmm...this looks to be as good of a place as any to make my entry. i've never posted before, but i've been lurking here (mainly on ILM tho) for what seems like a year at least. so i'm definitely an underrated (non)poster. but as far as i can tell, david popshots and aaron g. are posters that i think deserve some props.
also, hello! :)

― stolenbus (stolenbus), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:02 (twenty-three years ago)

Greetings! Hope you end up posting more!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:03 (twenty-three years ago)

hello!

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:04 (twenty-three years ago)

and most of all, I love you all, wish you well!

(hah! always wanted to quote the Frank and Walters on a thread)

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:04 (twenty-three years ago)

thanks stolenbus, and welcome! (I am totally blushing! I wasn't expecting any other mentions!)

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:08 (twenty-three years ago)

i wet myself over songs all the time.

(er, that response goes to ronan)

― michael wells (michael w.), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:10 (twenty-three years ago)

thanks for the welcomes. :)

― stolenbus (stolenbus), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

your all underrated. Aaron especially because he lived in Wormtown.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

i don't ask for much, really i don't, but just getting mentioned on *one* of these threads *ever* would be nice. y'know.

― oh who the hell cares anyway (mitchlnw), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:19 (twenty-three years ago)

*hugs* for Mitch, who is a fine feller and a half. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:20 (twenty-three years ago)

see! chris knows that to live in Worcester is a real test ;-)

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:21 (twenty-three years ago)

hugged by ned. mitch you've sunk so low

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:22 (twenty-three years ago)

I like Mitch. Mitch blog was great.

Mitch, mitch, mitch, mitch, mitch! :)

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:22 (twenty-three years ago)

big ups to donna loralei!!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Aw shucks, Ned!

I'd like to extend the same under-rated-props to you, but you are very appreciateNed around here, so it seems. I appreciate the Ned, that's fo' sho'.

Hell, I've got appresheeamashun for all sorts of y'all, regardless of your under-or-over-rated-ness: Chaki, McLusty, Kate, Ally, Dan Perry, Ant'ny, Sterling, Spencer, Erik, Chris V...you're all under-rated!

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:26 (twenty-three years ago)

oh yes now the praise comes, after all the sorry, shameless prodding. well too late, jel, raggett, keep yr zwan-loving mits offa me. if i'm not to be sincerely loved, i will develop bitter hermit-esque levels of unlikability. the proverbial ribbed butt-plug in ilx's gaping hole!

― mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:27 (twenty-three years ago)

def. Erik ... those pics of his are grebt!

― Tad (llamasfur), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:28 (twenty-three years ago)

Shit Mitch, you should DEFINITELY post more. Especially if they're all posts like that last one!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:30 (twenty-three years ago)

This is why he is loved.

Jess is full of hate, but it is the hate I love and therefore he is wondrous. :-)

(And thank ya Nickalicious.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:32 (twenty-three years ago)

He doesn't post enough, and it's cheating because he is a real life friend, but let's all give it up for MICHAEL DADDINO!

― Colin Meeder (Mert), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Rah! He can't be celebrated enough.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:36 (twenty-three years ago)

georgia boy is peerless and underrated.

― naked as sin (naked as sin), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Thanks dudes. Your all underrated as far as Im concerned. Even though no one shares the love for Force Md's.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:41 (twenty-three years ago)

WHAAAAAAT? Force MD's rule, if only for Lisa Lisa and Samantha Fox!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:42 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh god, another popularity thread. I refrain from these on principle, even though there are lots of people I'd like to give the big up to. Then again, because I look out for their posts, I think they're popular kids anyway.

The Lady musicians, I especially love: Sarah McL, Lady Di, Katie G. And Mel Caramel and Rebecca and Nicole G, though they're not technically guitargirls.

And even though I disagree with Nickalicious on every point of music, ever, he makes me smile. And I wish Arthur were around more!

I am leaving lots of people out, but otherwise this thread would be way to long. That doesn't mean I don't love you!

― kate, Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:43 (twenty-three years ago)

hey nza has got grebt taste

― chaki (chaki), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:44 (twenty-three years ago)

Whoa. Much respect to the Force M.D.'s! Now if only Fred S. were here...

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:44 (twenty-three years ago)

Arthur and Fritz were underrated, but now they've both been mentioned a few times.

What is the right technique to mention yourself without seeming like you're desperately seeking compliments?

― Sean (Sean), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Hey now, you clearly rock. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Do what I did Sean. Just come out and name yourself as underrated. In fact you are underrated.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:46 (twenty-three years ago)

*sobs* I should stop changing my name; it's hindering me amassing any weight of 'support'.

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Backatcha kate & nickalicious.

You know, I posted on the overrated thread that I overrate everyone. But I meant that in a good way. So I guess I should have said that I underrate everyone... no wait... hmm...

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 18:55 (twenty-three years ago)

heh...cozen, daddino too. mitch is so damm overrated ;-)

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:05 (twenty-three years ago)

You can all ('cept Julio, and jess who, I know, feels it in his heart) go suck a fuck.

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:06 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm not sure how highly kate is rated, but I can't imagine she is rated highly enough.

― Chris P (Chris P), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Hey, Cozen. I said everyone is underrated. So that includes you!

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:08 (twenty-three years ago)

kate is not rated but x-rated.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:08 (twenty-three years ago)

sarah- everyone is underarted apart from mitch.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:08 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh sorry, Sarah.

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:12 (twenty-three years ago)

Pashmina, jel, etc.

Force MDs love continues here. (Dan might be confusing them with Full Force?)

― Andy K (Andy K), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:12 (twenty-three years ago)

I know y'all, been waiting here sifting dust to the tunes of the 'Tunes, cuddling up to prickly prose and laughing with you all, fer agggges - and a look in my direction, a glance, an unsolicited drink, so much as a phone call? Yo, Andy K, thanks.

― etc. (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:14 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes, I realized that after I hit submit, but I wasn't going to say anything unless someone called me on it.

Did Force MDs do "Secret Lovers"?

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:23 (twenty-three years ago)

hello to you, lawrence kansas

― zemko (bob), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Ah yes! lawrence kansas!

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:37 (twenty-three years ago)

"Secret Lovers" was Atlantic Starr. Force Md's greatest song was "Tender Love".

― Chris V. (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:45 (twenty-three years ago)

I like Cozen!

Also David Howie is cool.

And watch out for the up-and-coming Amateurist.

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:47 (twenty-three years ago)

thanx for the props niggaz

― force md's, Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:53 (twenty-three years ago)

The Icemoth is underrated in comparison to the Chickenbear.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:53 (twenty-three years ago)

ICEMOTH.

Always my hero.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:54 (twenty-three years ago)

YES! "Tender Love"... I recently saw the video for that... WHEW were they fugly. Good voices, though.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 19:55 (twenty-three years ago)

where's the love, j-lio?

― mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:04 (twenty-three years ago)

(see what i did there?)

― mitch lastnamewithheld (mitchlnw), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Yes, I second Amateurist, and Lawrence Kansas. And I like Aaron W. He seems very nice indeed. And Nickalicious-fuck it if they don't like System Of A Down. Yeah, like you need me to tell you that.

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Jody Beth Rosen, on the other hand... no longer!

Jody Beth Rosen is fabaceous

Oh, I'm soooo overrated. Emperor's new clothes, etc.

This is the thread where I express my undying love to Chupa-Cabras and his speaking voice.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:15 (twenty-three years ago)

Becky Lucas obv.

Nabitsuh - Cozen is david h.

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I dunno if Duane and Maryanne are underrated, overrated or unrated, but this place wouldn't be the same w/out 'em.

God bless you Julio.

― Andrew L (Andrew L), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:25 (twenty-three years ago)

I third Amateurist. Raise you ArfArf and add a pinch of zemko.

ilx crushes: JBR, Geeta, Starry.

(I just realised my favourite ilx poster is Andrew L and Pete Baran falling down the stairs inside an iron maiden.)

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:26 (twenty-three years ago)

I curse my boring-ass name in that it results in me only being presented here in a lump of Nicks. Oh, if only I could turn back time and use a name that actually registers in peoples' minds. Seriously, do all the Nicks start to blend together? I'm not counting N., Momus, or Nickalicious, because their names are different enough to remember. Maybe I should extend the A. in my name to a word (not my real last name)?

― Nick A. (Nick A.), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:27 (twenty-three years ago)

You could be Nick A. Lodeon.

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:30 (twenty-three years ago)

If I could turn back time, If I could find a way- I'd take back all the words (and so-on)..

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:36 (twenty-three years ago)

Amateurist' answers are anything but amateurist, his knowledge (esp. on film) is near to encyclopedian.

What the hell, (D)ozen? Are you gonna stick with this one, or keep confusing me?

― nabisco (nabisco), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:38 (twenty-three years ago)

jeri curlan, who has a secret.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Does the secret have anything to do with jheri curls?

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:41 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, the only reason I change has now gone away, so I guess I'll stick with this one.

"Hey, yeah, I do know you; I've been posting to ilx for three years."

"Really?, oh! David H? I just presumed he went away, I didn't re-a-lise."

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 20:41 (twenty-three years ago)

I find this unanswerable, because I like and enjoy almost everyone, and I tend to assume that if I like and admire someone, they are liked and admired. So it seems weird when I see someone mentioned - like j.lu, very first example here - who I just assumed everyone liked and noticed and rated. Give me some sort of table of ratings, I'll tell you who I think is too low!

Thanks for mentioning me, Matt! I always assumed that I was largely not noticed, but various things have made me realise that this isn't the case. For better or worse...

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 21:18 (twenty-three years ago)

I am evidently over-rated, or possibly not rated at all. YES!

Wait, am I still allowed to post?

― Millar (Millar), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 21:36 (twenty-three years ago)

I'd just like to point out that the most underrated ILX'ers are the ones who haven't been mentioned in this thread! (think about it)

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 21:37 (twenty-three years ago)

''where's the love, j-lio?''

there's no love. In j-lio's world there's only money.

''I dunno if Duane and Maryanne are underrated, overrated or unrated, but this place wouldn't be the same w/out 'em.''

yes, most of 'our' NZ-er don't post that often but we treasure each one.

''God bless you Julio''

aw...

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 21:48 (twenty-three years ago)

i fink j-lu, geeta, spectra, and rosemary are quite under-rated.

― di smith (lucylurex), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 21:56 (twenty-three years ago)

Underrated? All I ever hear about is Geeta. Geeta, Geeta, Geeta! ;-)

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 21:58 (twenty-three years ago)

but i thought howie d = giralomo savonarola! you mean to say he really exists?!

― zemko (bob), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Mel is quite underrated, especially by herself!

― Nicole (Nicole), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:17 (twenty-three years ago)

Haha, he really exists! Which is to say, it's not me, if he doesn't.

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:33 (twenty-three years ago)

u lie, the email addy is a dead giveaway

― zemko (bob), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Have Matthew Cohen and Chris Robinson been mentioned? Do they still post?

― Frank Kogan (Frank Kogan), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:50 (twenty-three years ago)

Honestly, bob. Yeah, I know I used to post under [email protected].

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:50 (twenty-three years ago)

I really like Jeska. I don't know if she is underrated, but she's not here very much.

― rainy (rainy), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:53 (twenty-three years ago)

I would like to mention Arf Arf, the much-missed Ellie P. and Michael Jones.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 22:57 (twenty-three years ago)

I was wondering where Ellie had got to. Michael Jones is obviously a hero.

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 29 January 2003 23:26 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah ellie, i want to see ellie posting more.

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 30 January 2003 00:54 (twenty-three years ago)

ok. well, for having doubted his very existence, g. savonarola has won this underrated contest i think

― zemko (bob), Thursday, 30 January 2003 02:10 (twenty-three years ago)

mandee is most underrated of all. U guys R crazy.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 30 January 2003 02:13 (twenty-three years ago)

(pfft I posted underrated ilxers a week ago to another thread but leave it to jess to post an actual thread and get 150 responses, that catty bitch.)

― bnw (bnw), Thursday, 30 January 2003 02:19 (twenty-three years ago)

That's because YOU'RE underrated, bnw.

― rosemary (rosemary), Thursday, 30 January 2003 02:35 (twenty-three years ago)

i also think that justyn and ron are quite under-rated.

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 30 January 2003 02:50 (twenty-three years ago)

i nominate Grim Kim, and I second whoever nominated Dave Popshots ...

... no-one gives enough about my shit for me to be "under" or "over" rated

― Tad (llamasfur), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I hereby nominante Tad, the most endearing and enteraining presence I have stumbled across (did that help?)

― I'm Passing Open Windows (Ms Laura), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:01 (twenty-three years ago)

I like when Fritz and Erik do those beautiful images threads. I would like to request a beautiful images of ad posters for plays, if it hasn't yet been done.

― Genevieve, Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:04 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah kim too.

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:07 (twenty-three years ago)

I must be qualifying under the "infrequent poster" clause. Not that I'm complaining. Yet.

Does the leading vote getter receive a framable certificate & an official ILX keychain / bottle-opener?

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:11 (twenty-three years ago)

See, Kim?

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:13 (twenty-three years ago)

shush you - you got mentioned at least twice upthread and still had the nerve to whine. ;)

Tad just loves me on these threads for some reason, but he never speaks to me otherwise.

(thanks di! you rock!)

― Kim (Kim), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:17 (twenty-three years ago)

I wasn't whining. I thought I was moping. Anyhow, the world loves you. Admit it.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:19 (twenty-three years ago)

I don't.

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:21 (twenty-three years ago)

You don't love me Sundar? Well FINE. That's just great.

― Kim (Kim), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:22 (twenty-three years ago)

And here we were, all ready to come to your show. Hmph.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Thursday, 30 January 2003 03:24 (twenty-three years ago)

How do we tell if someone's underrated? Or is this merely a SECRET FLIRT THREAD... cos I didn't think anyone here wasn't being given their deserved respect, especially Martin S, I figured everyone liked him.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 30 January 2003 05:02 (twenty-three years ago)

it's for underrated ones!

genevieve, too. she's very nice and she makes me laugh.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 30 January 2003 05:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, it seem all my underrated faves have already been mentioned, except...boxcubed! bc! betty betty get back here! charlie charlie get back here! you're conveniently forgetting our little wedding, so much for our abc!

Also CJ. Is she underrated,though?

― Arthur (Arthur), Thursday, 30 January 2003 05:40 (twenty-three years ago)

josh is underrated. especially his jokes. come back little sheba.

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 30 January 2003 05:49 (twenty-three years ago)

I 2nd that emotion.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 30 January 2003 05:56 (twenty-three years ago)

yo how come you're never on IM anymore?

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 30 January 2003 05:57 (twenty-three years ago)

I got my cable modem fixed. I'll try to come visit for old times' sake one of these days.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 30 January 2003 06:02 (twenty-three years ago)

you do that

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 30 January 2003 06:02 (twenty-three years ago)

I think everyone is underrated, especially Di.

― Justyn Dillingham (Justyn Dillingham), Thursday, 30 January 2003 06:04 (twenty-three years ago)

adnrew and elisabeth and livvie are under-rated.

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 30 January 2003 06:06 (twenty-three years ago)

*beams*

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 30 January 2003 06:08 (twenty-three years ago)

especially Martin S, I figured everyone liked him.

Thanks, Andrew: I can't say that is my assumption, though.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:26 (twenty-three years ago)

That's probably part of yr charm!

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:30 (twenty-three years ago)

josh is underrated. especially his jokes. come back little sheba.

My sentiments exactly. Come back Sloshy!

― Nicole (Nicole), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:33 (twenty-three years ago)

Right, big shouts go out (in no particular order) to...

Ned, mark s, Julio, Marcello, Lara, kate, Nickalicious, N, anyone else called Nick, that rude man (= Dan Perry, dur), Tom, Lara, Jess, sundar, nabisco, Martin, Amateurist, Alex in NYC, Graham, Ronan, Killian, Mitch, Dom, J.Lu...

Um, everyone, really. These are just the names I can remember, and my memory is terrible. Everyone seems really nice. There aren't many girls' names on that list are there? God, I must look hideously sexist. These are the underrated ilxors, only not in order. There is no order!

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Lara gets two shouts because I've lost my mind.

Apologies for the overtly Tim Westwood stylings of those posts.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah I miss the Josh/Trife love affair. (though I admit I have probably said about two words to Josh ever)

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:39 (twenty-three years ago)

I was going to say Kilian but I thought it was a bit weird to call someone I know in real life "underrated".

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:40 (twenty-three years ago)

Nicole did you ever mail Josh that beer?

I miss Greg, myself.

― Sarah (starry), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:40 (twenty-three years ago)

Maybe if I mail him the beer he will come back! I actually looked online to see if there were places where you could order beer and have it shipped to people, but I couldn't really find any.

I miss the Josh bit of the Josh/Trife affair. And I miss Greg too...

― Nicole (Nicole), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:42 (twenty-three years ago)

I bet he has fallen inside one of his books with big long words and can't get out OH NO!!! Someone check on sloshy joshy!!

Gregs thread on crisps is probably the best thread ever.

― Sarah (starry), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:44 (twenty-three years ago)

i wonder if josh has ans his qs on the 'free jazz covers' thread on ILM. i miss josh.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Lynskey. Lynskey is underrated. And possibly a mentalhead.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 30 January 2003 13:55 (twenty-three years ago)

Ok, I'll count three calls as a summons and reappear. I will try to have some thoughts worth contributing in the near future.

Underrated: Fritz, David R, Di.

― Ellie (Ellie), Thursday, 30 January 2003 14:38 (twenty-three years ago)

Didn't you hear, Ellie? Di has her own musical now. Her name's in flashing lights.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Thursday, 30 January 2003 14:41 (twenty-three years ago)

I enjoy naked as sin's Friday night threads and his odd blasts of incoherence.

― Michael B, Thursday, 30 January 2003 15:56 (twenty-three years ago)

Lynskey, but I'm biased.
Nick I can confirm, he is a little bit silly.

Also Eric for his lovely pictures, and smee.

― Celeste (Celeste), Thursday, 30 January 2003 16:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I've never seen Erik's smee. (Sorry.)

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 30 January 2003 16:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Cheers Celeste, you're not too bad yourself!

Dan, the first time I get a mention and you have to go an spoil it by turning me into a euphemism?!

*storms off in a huff*

― smee (smee), Thursday, 30 January 2003 16:05 (twenty-three years ago)

*slaps Dan's hand*
Stop corrupting my brain.

― Celeste (Celeste), Thursday, 30 January 2003 16:07 (twenty-three years ago)

I would like to confirm that I am a mental head.

― Lynskey (Lynskey), Thursday, 30 January 2003 16:09 (twenty-three years ago)

That wasn't a euphemism! That was grammar teasing! Damn, I've got to do something about this reputation...

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 30 January 2003 16:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Too late.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 30 January 2003 17:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Thanks Michael, but what Friday threads? (I'm not desperate for ego-soothing, I'm just confused why specifically Friday)

― naked as sin (naked as sin), Thursday, 30 January 2003 18:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Hopkins: always good, never praised. Maybe he likes it that way.

I can never have too much of The Nipper.

N: some real comedy classics have come from him; his witty command of tone is underrated. He looks good too - even after all these years.

Miller: well, maybe he's been praised enough, in Another Place.

Kogan: apparently he even exists.

Jones, like toast, is a given.

― the pinefox, Thursday, 30 January 2003 18:42 (twenty-three years ago)

And who can forget TMFTML and his rapier wit?

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 30 January 2003 19:53 (twenty-three years ago)

The first 198 posters, apparently.

― TMFTML (TMFTML), Thursday, 30 January 2003 19:55 (twenty-three years ago)

their loss.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 30 January 2003 20:05 (twenty-three years ago)

Gareth, *tell* me, how do you *so consistently* come up with these peaches of *rumination*

I'll *bet* a certain welthorpe has a *hand involved*.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:41 (twenty-three years ago)

Ah, marvellous stuff from the *boy* fitzgerald, a *rock* in defence, one might say, even. Really quite something, a veritable charmer as well.

― gareth (gareth), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:43 (twenty-three years ago)

More *thoughts*, *Ewing* perhaps?

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:44 (twenty-three years ago)

*what* are you *two* on *about*?

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Ah, *Aaron*, I look forward to hearing that *global communication* record pitched to *plus 8*, it's been a long time since myself, *mooro* and *the boys* got off our tits *fucking hardcore style innit*

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Props to Aaron, more threads like Contemporary Futurism please.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:48 (twenty-three years ago)

I look forward to NYC clubbing with Aaron some sunny day.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:50 (twenty-three years ago)

Ed look at "Back to the Land" and thanks. I am really happy that you and others have been responding.

*Ronan* I am *excited* to *hear* what *you* will *think* of the record at *plus-8*. *I* am *also* *excited* to hear your thoughts on the *other* records, especially *"The Dancer"* by *MoodyMann* *DJTonka* mix. It is *cheesy* *marvelous* piano house!

Now I am starting to blush with all of this pro-Aaron talk. Ronan you, and Gareth, will always be welcome at my place in NYC, regardles of the opinions of my roommates. If I find a place of my own, all the better! We will feast on curry! Also, clubbing sounds nice. Better than nice, actually. I don't have many friends who like to go out, so I am always staying in. When you visit, there will be no problems!

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Thursday, 30 January 2003 21:57 (twenty-three years ago)

Ronan actually I am a bit confused. Are we clubbing on a sunny day now? I though clubs were for the nighttime? ;-)

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Thursday, 30 January 2003 22:16 (twenty-three years ago)

I meant we stay out till midday, er....yeah that's what I meant!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 22:18 (twenty-three years ago)

haha according to nick s, becky lucas is an under-rated poster!

― di smith (lucylurex), Thursday, 30 January 2003 22:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Ronan that is cool... certainly the strangest feeling is leaving a club at 9am and seeing all of the joggers, etc.

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Thursday, 30 January 2003 22:24 (twenty-three years ago)

"We will feast on curry" is the worst come-on I've ever heard.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 30 January 2003 23:01 (twenty-three years ago)

And yet you're horny as hell at the thought

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 23:05 (twenty-three years ago)

No, I'm kind of sleepy, actually.

(I was originally going to post "Ronan, Gareth: BEWARE ROEHYPNAL" but decided that was too creepy.)

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 30 January 2003 23:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Ah no, I love a good rohypnol curry.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 23:10 (twenty-three years ago)

"We can stay in and bake bread" is WAY worse.

― Lara (Lara), Thursday, 30 January 2003 23:29 (twenty-three years ago)

I long for the days when myself and my mum could stay in and bake bread free from wild accusations. (DID THOSE DAYS EVER EXIST)

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 30 January 2003 23:34 (twenty-three years ago)

cybele is underrated and should post more

― jess (dubplatestyle), Friday, 31 January 2003 01:14 (twenty-three years ago)

I wasn't trying to come on to Ronan. Ronan and I had been discussing curry on AIM yesterday.

prove it, jess

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 31 January 2003 01:17 (twenty-three years ago)

kardinal offishall purity test:

1. which versh of "money jane" is better, album or original?
2. what website is referred to in the kardinal remix of bubba sparxx's "ugly"?
3. what huge 2002 hit did kardi rap on the "reggae" versh of?
4. what does maxine have to "change" after hearing kardi on the radio?

5. how do you know ur ghetto?

I'd like to thank Millar for improving the quality of political debate round here and giving a different point of view from that normally expressed round here. You're a clear and lucid debater even if I don't agree with a damn word you write.

― Ed (dali), Friday, 31 January 2003 10:38 (twenty-three years ago)

I was thinking the same myself. Contrast is good, in depth contrast for the purposes of advancing and grounding one's thoughts even better. Rah!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 31 January 2003 13:56 (twenty-three years ago)

I was just thinking that after reading one of the recent Iraq threads. It's always a good thing to remember that not everyone who disagrees with you is stupid and/or irrational. (The law of Internet averages says that most people you argue with will appear stupid and irrational to you, partially because of the disparity of views and partially because communicating said views by text alone removes body language and allows the reader to put unintentional bias on the other person's statements.)

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 31 January 2003 14:17 (twenty-three years ago)

yeah more props to millar. the only problem is...whenever i see one of your posts tom its like 730am and i got to go to work and im all sleepy, so i dont get to formulate a proper response, and it deserves a better response from me in which i can disagree with every single point;)

― gareth (gareth), Friday, 31 January 2003 14:26 (twenty-three years ago)

I third this! fletjet and millar arguing on Iraq has really been something.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 31 January 2003 14:28 (twenty-three years ago)

Sometimes I like to start political threads and then just watch them go. We do have some very good debators on this board.

― Sarah McLUsky (coco), Friday, 31 January 2003 14:30 (twenty-three years ago)

big props.

― g-kit (g-kit), Friday, 31 January 2003 14:43 (twenty-three years ago)

I love Millar but yeah, it's 3.48 am, I cannot think

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 31 January 2003 14:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Millar is now in danger of being overrated.

― N. (nickdastoor), Friday, 31 January 2003 19:19 (twenty-three years ago)

Shit.

i'm not sure if they're "officially" underrated, but i think Lara, Gareth and Ed don't get enough props. i *know* i'm forgetting someone though, but i don't know who.

― sand.y, Sunday, 2 February 2003 22:47 (twenty-three years ago)

i like pretty much everyone, but i feel callum is becoming excellent and i must doff my hat to him. i think pretty much all my other favourites have been mentioned.

― weasel diesel (K1l14n), Sunday, 2 February 2003 23:15 (twenty-three years ago)

okay, so this is where I kill myself, right? im gone for a week and return to this ack! even Aaron G who is rating so many has forgotten me, and i have him on my so-called "buddy-list," alas i do not have ronan's coolness clubbing quotient, but who would have guessed...?

not that i've ever really contributed anything. i mean, ive used his place as a caffeine-substitute to keep me awake and such...i guess this is what I get in return for turning ILX into my anti-sleep bitch!! and now i dont want this to turn into a pity-party, gosh, why did i even sign on today

― Vic, Monday, 3 February 2003 00:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Vic you are looking on the wrong thread, my friend.

nine months pass...

Aaron Grossman, you are a good poster. I was going to big you up more, but I see that many people have already done so. Take what you can get.

Charles McCain is also a good poster.

jones should post more.

Poor oops gets a bad rep.

Mr Diamond/Broheems also makes a very worthwhile contribution.

Matt Coastaltown=good.

Also Nicole.

And Dom. I like Dom.

This is different from the crush thread.

but i'm afraid its a mean answer so don't want to know =)

― Vic (Vic), Sunday, 9 November 2003 13:57 (twenty-two years ago)

personally, i think felicity is underrated and should post more and come back to los angeles..

also, the revival of this thread cannot, in any way, be a good thing. why'd u do it, @d@ml, why ?

why should we rate each other?

― amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 9 November 2003 15:55 (twenty-two years ago)

exactly. which is why i think all of these are worthless threads

― Vic (Vic), Sunday, 9 November 2003 15:58 (twenty-two years ago)

i mean do people sit around in pubs with their friends rating each other, or suggesting who is underrated? it's weird.

― amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 9 November 2003 15:59 (twenty-two years ago)

oh but you're forgetting that all of us here are not friends...

some of us are just co-posters.

― Vic (Vic), Sunday, 9 November 2003 16:15 (twenty-two years ago)

if you're an american and you're sitting in a "pub" you deserve to be rated

i mean no one i hang out with her calls them "bars," i've just gotten used to calling them "pubs"

''i mean do people sit around in pubs with their friends rating each other, or suggesting who is underrated? it's weird.''

now lemme tell ya abt this thing called life... ;)

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 9 November 2003 17:07 (twenty-two years ago)

now take julio here, on my right. there's an underrated chap. why just the other day my friend david was listing his favorite people and i asked him, "david, haven't you forgotten julio?" and he said, "why yes, i always underrate that julio." and i said, "that's all too common."

― amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 9 November 2003 17:11 (twenty-two years ago)

another round?

Vic I'm pretty sure I was referring to some other thread that day, I shoulda used blue writing!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 9 November 2003 17:25 (twenty-two years ago)

The thing is I'm not sure how to answer this thread because:

a) Am I saying that I personally under-rate the posters I mention?
b) Thinking that people are under-rated in comparison to others just re-inforces the ILX hegemony. I don't think I can do that.
c) I'm just being silly
d) Ignore this post

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 9 November 2003 17:27 (twenty-two years ago)

I haven't read the thread, but at least "underrated" is usually a pretty nice thing to say about something, and very well could brighten someone's day.

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 9 November 2003 17:55 (twenty-two years ago)

that's true but it makes people sound like brands of cheese sort of

― amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:04 (twenty-two years ago)

although cheese is nice

― amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:05 (twenty-two years ago)

underrated= doesn't post a lot but when he/she does they say something you like reading.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:07 (twenty-two years ago)

I've never met a cheese I thought was underrated. :)

― Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:09 (twenty-two years ago)

so an underrated director is somebody who rarely makes a film but you enjoy the ones they do? I don't think so.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:10 (twenty-two years ago)

It's nice to be mentioned on threads, and to know people think you are okay. That's cool, but I don't think I'll ever make a list.

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:14 (twenty-two years ago)

not the same thing anthony.

when the q was asked, that's what i thought it meant.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 9 November 2003 18:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey Tracer, thanks for naming me as underrated--I've always thought I was invisible 'round here...

― cybele (cybele), Sunday, 9 November 2003 19:28 (twenty-two years ago)

you ain't!

― s1utsky (slutsky), Sunday, 9 November 2003 19:55 (twenty-two years ago)

I would think that an underrated ILx0r would be someone who isn't usually called to thread, told how OTM they are, listed in popularity threads, or otherwise name-checked, but who is nonetheless a swell and interesting person who you like reading. Either that or someone who has an undeservedly bad rep, I guess.

― jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 9 November 2003 19:56 (twenty-two years ago)

otm Jaymc. (though I guess that means I can't call you overrated)

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 9 November 2003 19:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Man, every time I want to include an addendum, it turns into a x-post:

(In other words, I think there are some relatively frequent posters who are nonetheless underrated because nobody goes on about them.)

― jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 9 November 2003 19:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Anthony, do you mean underrated, or are you making a joke that's lost on me?

― jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 9 November 2003 20:00 (twenty-two years ago)

jaymc it is time to announce your crush on the amazing randy

― amateur!st (amateurist), Sunday, 9 November 2003 20:01 (twenty-two years ago)

WOOOPS. sorry no I mean "underrated." goddamn, this is what happens when I type too fast. Sorry, jaymc!

has there ever been an overrated ilxers thread? i'm forgetting, but there should def be one

― Vic (Vic), Sunday, 9 November 2003 23:06 (twenty-two years ago)

how about an "overrated thread ideas" thread?

Jel, you're a cool cat. :)

I don't think Julia gets mentioned enough, honestly. Or enough responses or feedback. Trayce is a bit similar, I would feel. I love both these chicas and I think they should be spotlighted more, especially since they are two individuals who have worked hard to make sure I feel comfortable here. Thank you, honeys.

I want all sports news ever reported by him, except for news about Portsmouth FC, which is obviously to be reported by DJ Martian

Repeat with "pop" and "Snore Patrol"

― thank you, flipper, for nickelback (country matters), Saturday, 11 July 2009 11:57 (sixteen years ago)

Swygart and Martian one of the all-time great ILX double-acts in my opinion. The thread where they liveblogged the Festive 50 while working in pops at each other's football clubs is top stuff.

― Matt DC, Saturday, 11 July 2009 12:52 (sixteen years ago)

carne asada is underrated imo

Er. Silly thread title. Each of us rates other ilxors according to the dictates of our own hearts and this rating is rarely far wrong within that context.

Thread shd be called, "I feel like giving huzzahs to all these ilxors" or something.
