unironically kill yourself if you do this

But everything is the best

>>128262750 (OP)
what's the 0.5 rating one

>>128262750 (OP)
but what if i do this cuz i only listen to good music?

I love autism curves

>>128262806
the new tswift

>>128262815
honestly this, people who try to even out their ratings curve are intentionally listening to stuff they're not going to like

>>128262882
How do you know you don’t like something until you listen to it

>>128262825
still weird but definitely more acceptable than OP

>>128262750 (OP)
I just love everything I listen to :)

>>128262891
listening to shit you know is going to be shit. I knew the limp bizkit albums were going to be bad, and lo and behold they were bad

>>128262750 (OP)
music is made by those who hear it.

Rating 38000 + albums 5.0 means either they really get music, or they're pretending to like music they don't.

But really who is better off for reading a review of less than 5.0 on an album? nobody cares what you hate, I certainly don't, I just care what music has inspired you recently.

This is why critics are utterly useless. You have ears, a heart and a brain, use them.

>>128262750 (OP)
My rating curve.

r8

>>128262750 (OP)
I agree, you should kill yourself for using RYM.

>>128262750 (OP)
i thought you got banned or your ratings effecting the over all score got revoked for having meme ratings

>>128265421
If this were true, half of the site would be banned. All the tranny and zoomer reviews are meme shart with no meaning.

>>128262750 (OP)
My ratings curve looks like that because I only listen to 5/5s

>>128265421
you don't get banned but you get deweighted, meaning your ratings don't affect the overall score of the release

>>128262882
Why shouldn't I do that ?, I just created a rym account...

>>128265659
>if you dont follow the reddit groupthink your rating is invalid

>>128263317
>254 0.5s
I have not heard a 0.5 song, album, artist how the fuck have you heard 254

>>128263221
>limp bizkit
>bad
yes, you have bad taste

>>128267066
I guess you haven't listened to any crunk core, Latin rap or deathcore

>>128267060
If you rate everything with a low or a high score than your opinion is worth less than someone with a more balanced scale

>>128267082
you either like it or not pretending theres anything more to it than that is just arbitrary

If you have more than 10 5/5s I immediately block your account

>>128267153
Even if you have over 10k ratings? That's retarded

>>128263317
Midwit/10

>>128267167
No it isnt. If you think there are thousands of albums without flaw or you rate on a scale of "me like vs me dont like" you are retarded and have shit taste

>>128267359
I have 30 5 star albums, do you have a problem with that faggot?

>>128267359
Kill him >>128267389
anon !!!

>>128267153
Better than pretentious people who have zero 5 star ratings

>>128267389
your shitty profile would never enter my field of vision anyway as I am only interested in seeking out good music.
>>128267409
I have 3.

>>128262750 (OP)
I remember it being a part of the rules, that if your rating distribution wasn't at all close to a normal distribution with a mean somewhere in the middle, then it was grounds for having your account suspended.

>>128267461
Tpab, OK Computer, and Wish You Were Here ?

>>128262750 (OP)
The kind of ""people "" that drive tpab to the top https://rateyourmusic.com/~mmepsychosis https://rateyourmusic.com/~RIAYBD00H5 https://rateyourmusic.com/~Adam_M009 idiots always win on sites like these, for being the majority, these sites are useless, to "decide" which ones are the best albums. Should be a requirement, to be at least 25, and have rated at least 500, before your votes started to amount to anything.

>>128263221
>>128263317
>>128267391
How tf do you have more 3.5s and 4s than 3s. The vast majority of stuff I listen to ends up being only "okay".

>>128267122
>you either like it or not pretending theres anything more to it than that is just arbitrary
one of the most retarded things I've ever read
affinity is a sliding scale, there's a difference between "I like this" and "I love this"

>>128268276
A lot of stuff I listen to ends up being solid or having one or two tracks I revisit with the rest of the album being just okay or forgettable.

I think I broke the recommendation thingy ?, it said I need to try genres I dislike (rap) so I just kept 0.5 everything that came my way... now it doesn't work anymore, is that normal ?

If you're seeking out music on your own and judging it by yourself, your ratings should come out as a normal distribution. If you follow any outside opinions, including what to listen to, it will deviate from a normal distribution. Simple as

i only rate music i own
i only own music i like

>>128262882
retard does not understand the concept of relativity

>>128268794
You're right. For example, if you mostly check out albums on RYM that are bolded, then it's likely your rating distribution with have a higher mean, than if you were to check out albums randomly. There are commonalities in what people find good, so even though you may disagree on a lot of albums with the consensus, that simple reality should still be reflected in a skewed distribution. But I don't think they'd ban you for having a skewed rating distribution. They might ban you if you e.g. rate everything 5/5 or 0.5/5.

>>128262750 (OP)
This is how people rate pretty much everything online.
>if everything went 100% smoothly
5 stars
>if there was even the most slightly disappointment or inconvenience
1 star

I've learned a lot of people live by extremes. This is also how people argue online on Reddit and even 4chan. Everything is either black or white, there is no middle ground. Oh you like X, well you must hate Y then! It's the same principal.

Bully me

>>128262750 (OP)
Agreed. Everyone who uses RYM should be eradicated. The world would be a better place.

My account got banned years ago from posting a comment about Kanye's bad music. It was deemed 'inflammatory troll posting'. Crap website.

>>128267544
No Kendrick album is higher than a 3.5

>>128268818
>I like this album but less than other stuff I like, 2 stars
that biases the ratings as well

>>128271380
Dude, why do you even rate any kendrick crap a 3 ? especially when everyone is already glazing the hell out of his crap ?, if everyone did their job, and rated it a 0.5, it would leave 1st place in no time. here is how I rate 'em : https://rateyourmusic.com/~Andras I hope rap dies out soon, tired of seeing half of the ""greatest albums of all time"" being rap...

>>128271712
RYM will never let #1 not be an affirmative action album again. I'm sure there's been special weights and/or bots keeping it that way for years.

>>128271409
RYM takes your average rating into account when calculating album score, based retard

>>128268278
Anon you're arguing with somebody without an internal monologue

Nowadays they'd ban you for the opposite kek. Guess the tribe of the site owner

>>128262750 (OP)
nothing wrong with only reviewing good albums, why would i go out of my way to find a bad albums rym page and rate it?

>>128273898
Aren't comment sections for all Kanye albums nuked now?

>>128271712
>mom i heckin owned the blacks by... rating albums on rym!
meanwhile blacks are doing actual things irl like fucking white women and beating up white boys rn
impotent basement dweller
>inb4 mean words
proving the point, all you have is the internet but irl you get destroyed by the black men you hate, and theres nothing you can do except internally seethe

>>128274124
They are but you can still write reviews

>>128269729
>>128267072
Listen to the entire album and not just the singles which are actually good imo.

>>128268276
Theres a difference between passable and actually good and nice to listen to, i actually seek out shit i feel like i'd like a lot.

>>128274292
Facts.

Nice fantasy Tyrone

>t. retarded zoomers who were still children when Limp Bizkit was collectively shit on for over a decade
