No, but I guess I'll give it a shot.

This is going to sound weird and this could get deleted. I hope not and I hope it is within my right to say this. I won't make a thread for it just incase. Well... I have something to ask of anyone interested here. Please hear me out
Back in 2007/2008 I was very into Last.fm. I was using a different username back then (I deleted it before I made the an_outlaw account) and I used to talk about music on there. There were lots of groups you could join and the place was much more active. Used to have many people in my shoutbox. Lots of music discussion.
Well... you know how some of you people look up to certain users? Cellar Door and Norman Bates are two of the big ones for example. Most people really like their charts and seem to want to go to them recommendations. Also you have the people who are regarded as awesome for their actions as opposed to their music. Anyway... on last fm such a user for me was one named Gowienczyk.
Through a stroke of luck I found they had a rate your music account yesterday. I was like "Hey I remember that name" clicked on it and found it I remember this person. Not remember them as in know them, I only knew there online presence.
From what I remember, they are a music nut. They had a group of music acts they were working with as free downloads on last fm. One was something to do with Wisconsin (where they were from) and another had 'Jungle' in the title. Mostly avant garde and ambient. They introduced me to the bands 50 Foot Wave and Beat Happening, Black Tambourine and fIREhose amongst others through this epic list they once posted. They were funny when I got them to write in my shoutbox. I remember when someone was advertising for a Rise Against forum (most likely long dead by now) and we both signed up there for a while. I remember asking them if they had heard of Iced Earth and they said that asking them that question was "like asking a metalhead if they had heard of Iron Maiden" 
Okay, I remember a load of random things so if it sounds strange its just me being me. I don't have a rate your music at the moment. What I was wondering is if somebody who has one can message them about this website. Putting myself in their situation it would be like... "Who are you and whats this website?" Yet... its worth a shot isn't it? This person literally had an epic taste in music and I used to listen to obscure 90s American alternative bands I saw them listening to. They helped me find a great deal a year or two before I came here.
So basically... there is an internet person called Gowienczyk (Michael Gowienczyk? I think that was his name)
and I want to ask someone with a rate your music account to ask them to join BEA.
Also... I found them again through the Postcards From A Young Man rate your music page. Maybe they have recently found the Manic Street Preachers themselves?

Ask and ye shall receive, I guess.
On to the point that I have a reputation somewhere that is positive at that just makes me feel... quite good actually. I think the stroke of luck is me not changing my username ever since I started using it, but that's not really big importance or anything. Also the compliments aren't helping whatever ego I have left, haha. But I literally joined just because of this and will see how I get into it from there.
As for "Wisconsin" that would likely be A Pleasant Day in Wisconsin, which was one of my older EP's for my noise rock project, TCNE. I'm actually from Michigan, though.
As for Manic Street Preachers, I've been listening to Send Away The Tigers since it debuted (due to The Cardigans/A Camp collaborations) and for the last few years I've been procrastinating on checking out the rest of their discography and I think I've pretty much fallen in love with them now due to remedying that.

Wow, that didn't take long, Outlaw has some crazy powers.
Anyway, welcome to the site, hope you enjoy it here! It seems you've got a reputation to live up to already!

To be fair, it did take me two hours to realize I had mail in my inbox on my RYM account!

It's a bit different than last.fm and rateyourmusic for one, I can't tell what I prefer until I dive headfirst here so right now I'm trying to get a handle of everything. But yeah, I read my inbox and the post; and I joined. I'm a sucker for compliments!
