How is this flamebait?

It's not a troll name (at least from my perspective), nor is it "over the top mangling" like the rules states (like putting "God" next to the name of the artist), which is why I felt it was okay to use it.

Always when you mangle celebrity's name it's warned as a nickname, 'Blackoutney' or 'FameGa' aren't offensive either but you'd be get warned for them anyway

Not the Angela Cheng base being closed on the grounds of her not being an artist She is! A conartist, but an artist nevertheless

Sorry Angela, non-existent people ain't welcome here

That's not mentioned in the rules at all. Let me go and try to get this reversed.

You have mangled the name of a celebrity, public figure, brand or ATRL member into a stan name or a hater name.

7 years and 25k posts... You're serving 'joined yesterday and trying way too hard and getting surprised when you get a WP for it' teas.

Can someone link me to a Help Request page? Someone reported me for "nicknames" for something that was titled as a possible tour name in the single thread where we were discussing G.U.Y. and it's future.

Hello,
I have a question about Singles threads.
Is this picture enough to start one for A Sky Full Of Stars?

Done!

I got a WP for nicknames....

So this harmless, inoffensive nickname isn't allowed, but referring to Taylor Swift as "The Lord" is perfectly dandy? Just what is going on?

"The Lord" is actually now being enforced as a warnable offense (along with "Female MJ").

As far as disputing warning points, that is strictly done through HELP requests.

The graphics don't matter, but you can only start an official singles thread if there is a legitimate source that outlines the name and release date of the project. Those are just bonus tracks and should be discussed in the album thread.

First time hearing about "The Lord" being a warnable nickname Shouldn't rules be upgraded when such changes are made?

No official date yet but these 2 songs are not the bonus tracks. Magic is the first single and the other song has been rumored to be the 2nd single for weeks now.
I guess I should wait few more days before opening the thread.
Thank you

Wait, so can I still refer to Gaga as Goddess of Love without getting a WP?

It was reopened, but the titled had to be changed.

The staff have grown annoyed with the usage of "______ is looking 4,16, and so on." So the modified it to better represent the thread's true purpose.

Clarification and emphasis on updates will come with the new software update. Perhaps, it hasn't been enforced yet and I jumped the gun, but I'll get clarification and post back to keep people updated.

I'm talking about the update of the rules after such changes because vast majority of ATRL isn't following HQ and when you're giving them WPs for something they can't even know about, it's kinda ""

[Vespertine]

Can you guys consider making all these Angela Cheng threads warnable?


I assume the whole point of Examiner articles being warnable was so that we couldn't post made-up info from absolute nobodies, but now that she's not on the Examiner anymore people are just spamming her like crazy. It's obnoxious and I'm not sure why a fake journalist deserves this much attention on a music site. Everyone needs to stop giving the person behind Angela Cheng validation by paying her so much attention.


She's not a celebrity, there's no reason to have 50 threads about her every day
