    The way they just took off and how the divide keeps growing this wide.. it screams to me that there is some computer type dude on their side running a script. It's really not hard for a computer script to open up a web page and click a button. You put a timer on it to run once an hour all day and night... and if you run it through some proxy servers to change the IP address each time and then it can vote a bunch of times.. once an hour all day and night.

    I think its kind of pathetic that someone would do that for an online poll but given how easy it would be for someone to do.. it clearly looks like that is what is happening in this instance.

    What is more pathetic....creating an automatic voting bot for a meaningless online poll or actually going to the site every hour for a week to vote manually for a meaningless online poll?

    any bot invalidates the whole things so don;t even worry about it, the fact JAP x is in the finals and NOT Metallica makes it a pretty worthless poll anyhow

    I'm sure it's because of how much more sharply dressed X Japan is. Or it could be because their hair styles area definitely better

    Give it a rest. We got destroyed. Like every other band. Deal with it.

    give it a rest? I was just saying. No we actually didn't get destroyed like every other band. Every other band was at like 25% on the second day. for some reason we couldn't even go up 1% on the second day after X Japans first round of votes.We just slowly kept going down. Seems a bit rigged if you ask me is all i'm saying. ive dealt with it. Pearl Jams still the better live band i'm pretty over it so don't tell me to give it a rest for just stating my opinion.

    Wasnt this just an online poll? Why has this been dominating the facebook pages and here?

    Isn't best live band subjective? eg. we probably all think Pearl jam are the best (or near the top anyway), other people dont. Does anyone really care if they won this or have i totally missed something?

    Yeah, I think it's just a random distraction. You know, for fun. Just because people are talking about it, it doesn't mean they are actually taking it seriously.

    You can't argue if PJ is left off a greatest or best list if a poll we can control bothers you.
