It's not just bothering Richard.

Check the list mandate again. It's an irritating discussion and
completely off-topic. Aside from that, and I know you didn't say
this, there are many other things to discuss about "IDM" besides
predicting who the next artist to be consumed, trainspotted and trashed is
going to be. We could probably make more of an attempt to have an
Intelligent Music Mailing List (IMML).
"IDM is a list focusing on the discussion of the "Intelligent Dance
Music" subset of electronic music." Feel free to explain to us how
Foreigner, Air Supply and Neil Diamond have *anything* to do with this. (I
thought the attempt with Def Leppard was pretty good, though :)
Other important bits:
"We rely on common courtesy to keep the list content under control and
on-topic"
and
"Just remember that your mail goes into approximately 900 mail boxes
worldwide therefore unrelated or unneccessary posts should be kept to an
absolute minimum."

Not ironic. But off-topic.
