As most regular users, I had pics and quotes matching my personality on my personal page. Never trolled anyone. Didn't post on people's boards.
Their admins are going nuts with cancelling "unapproved opinions". Their killing themselves with this nonsense.
My sin: One of the quotes on my page was, "it's not enough to not be communist, you must be anti-communist as well".
A user at both sites recommended this. I searched alternatives and believe this to be the closest to what I'm looking for. |
I used to be on RYM too. They are totally unfair and they push an agenda.

Frequently was consulting this website in order to find some new music, and decided to register in order to post a year chart, but found out that I need a lot of points in order to do that

Been here so long, I don’t remember!! I feel like someone posted a link that included a They Might Be Giants album. Being a music fan and a total geek, this site hooked me immediately.

I genuinely can’t remember but so glad that I found this site. I’ve been on similar sites but they don’t have the vibe that this one does.
Long may it continue

I realized today that my 10th anniversary of being on BEA was 9 days ago!
Unlike some who came here from RYM, I actually discovered RYM through BEA. I vaguely recall finding BEA through AcclaimedMusic, but I think the link was rather roundabout and I may have stumbled upon BEA on accident (attempting to look up "best albums ever" and putting the words in a different order and finding this site!)
10 years ago I was looking for comprehensive lists of the best albums ever, and BEA appealed to me because of the combination of critics list and user-generated lists, rather than AM which is just an amalgam of critics' lists and RYM which is just user-generated (I believe... I may be misunderstanding how the "overall" charts are generated on any of the 3 sites, but this was my perception of how the charts were generated and that influenced my sticking with BEA).
A few years later in 2015, I sorta dropped off BEA, but came back in 2019 and have been fairly active ever since.
And as much so as music discovery or conversation about music drives me to stick with BEA; the chart management on this site is wonderful and I think AM and everyone else who has made this site so great.
