wikipedia on Journey's lead singer change

[Andrew]

if it was one of the "in crowd" saying what hots said i doubt anyone would have a prob. it's not what was said but who said it.

Look, HOTS has been sniping at me for YEARS on this fucking board. Today I say enough. Ok??

Why is this now your problem? I have no issues with you and never have.

[Deb]

so we can't expect to see another one of your temper tantrums when you're put on vacation ed? hahahaa! }:CPP

damn.

Hey, it's always possible.

However, despite my indiscretions, I still contribute more positive things here more than any of the complainers.

I've said many times if I get banned it's probably in Drew's best interest. I know too much, I'm more intelligent than most, and I am crazy.

Whatever happens to me, it is the Wombat's board and he has every right to do with it how he sees fit. The whiners and complainers are annoying. If you don't like it here GTFU.

LOL, GTFU?? Not so intelligent now are ya?

Tree's cool people!

I type very fast and this is not a term paper. You know that. I never said Tree wasn't ok, just responding. How do you know what the acronym actually was?

[treetopovskaya]

that wasn't directed at you andrew. i just find it funny the things people get upset about. if it was someone who people like saying what hots said i doubt people would get as upset.

i'm just tired of this mob mentality.

andrew i think you're too nice... and people should respect you more... especially your friends.

[treetopovskaya]

i read what hots said... i took it like this...

say you're a parent & you have a bratty kid... when they act out you tell them they will get punished... but the punishment never comes... so the kid just brushes off your threats & continues to act out. this is mr in a nutshell. }:C)

i think this is what she meant. people have said worse.

[AR]

I really have no issue with HOTS. However if Andrew does, it's HIS call.

The only people I can't stand are the ones that jump on here with just a few posts and go straight on the attack. I get all kinds of annoying bullshit PM's and thread stalkers from people who are new (but you know they aren't really new).

Cuz I is intelligent.

If you would like me to share the amount of warnings and vacations I have gotten here I'd be happy to share those.

Meanwhile. anonymous new posters will come and go and take potshots.

Just sayin'. As one of the vets I'm expected by management to know better. That's not always easy. However your perception that no action is taken is completely unfounded. It's done behind the scenes and not in public most of the time. That is 100% the TRUTH.

[Rhiannon]

I don't think anyone in the "in crowd" would say something so low honestly. I think they have a little more respect than that. Why can't you people see this was more than name calling?

True that. Spot on.

[Rhiannon]

Cuz I is intelligent.

You is, is you? Hehehe S-m-r-t, smart.

[Deb]

Tree, this game can't be sitting very well with you? Boooyaaaa! Go Nucks!

[Indyjoe]

Tree, this game can't be sitting very well with you? Boooyaaaa! Go Nucks!

You mean the game against the Stanley Cup Ducks?! That game!!

Sorry didn't mean to butt in!!

It aint over til it's over!! We have a minute!!

LMAO! Ya, you know the one the Ducks have yet to score in.

[treetopovskaya]

damn... not even one goal! i like hiller... miss bryz tho. he played a mean air guitar! }:C))

deb what is your av? };C)

[Rhiannon]

Yay! We've moved on to hockey! Hurrah!
Now let's all hug it out and get some sleep.

Seriously...I'm starting to get annoyed now. This is my LAST post. HOTS has been on my ass and this forum in general for a long time...she does NOT like me. Whatever...I could care less. But I certainly do NOT have to put up with snide remarks and I certainly won't let someone like her make posts attacking my credibility and professionalism - comments posted in relation to another saga which she was not short on an opinion with.

Ok? She pissed me off for the last time EVER.

Any other moderator complaints while we are at it? We may as well get into the nitty gritty of it while no one has anything better to do

Okay, I'm gonna get this off my chest.

Dude, you really screwed the pooch on election day! I don't know how far apart your election cycles are, but you're gonna have to live with the consequences til then. I hope the tax hike you guys get hit with doesn't affect this board. Okay, that's about the extent of my moderator complaints.

Proud of our choice here mate....out of the 50s we come!

[yulog]

The way i look at it is...Andrews site ,Andrews money, Andrews rules(and to some extent Andrews headache). Its easy to say someone isnt being fair, or doing things wrong when they havent had to be in charge of an emotionally charged board such as this one.We dont pay to be here, Andrew pays for all of this ,and he should be able to make decisions as he sees fit. Would you pay a monthly bill to listen to people constantly put you down , talk down to you, or talk bad about you on your own site.He is doing the best he can given the circumstances, give the guy a break already, before he decides that he no longer wants to put up with this part of his site.

Thanks for asking. All the lame personal attacks, fkyous, name calling, should not be allowed. I have friends who I have shown this board to say they have no interest in joining (posting) because of all the horrible language, personal attacks in this forum. C'mon, when someone can type something like "I like singer X better than singer X" and one of the first responses is "well, fkyou then.." etc, it really doesn't lend itself to getting new mature users. You have some incredibly interesting topics here at times, but the amount of filthy personal attacks/language that's allowed is way over the top.

OK, I was being semi-sarcastic when calling for other complaints, but your post is duely noted. However...I have addressed the personal attacks and as for language, well...that's always going to be a part of this forum - there are some colourful folks here and a lot of personalities. I'm not interested in turning this forum into what BackTalk was (despite some users of that forum wishing for the bygone days of old...)

Now - can we swing this 9 page epic in another direction finally?

Isnt it weird to celebrate christmas in middle of summer???

[NealIsGod]

Wow, just read through the last 5 pages. Didn't realize this was such an interesting thread.

[Sassie]

Yes, I think Christmas in July is strange. But if you get presents I'm all for it.

[StevePerryHair]

Christmas in December in Florida is a lot like having Christmas in the summer anyway

Even though I havent posted a million posts, I would hope my opinion might have some valor, if not thats ok too. Andrew why not have a thread ( and possibly there is one) where people who might have there panties in a wad or their testicles in a knot can spew their crap? I realize that it might be hard to do, I am not sure thats why I am suggesting it. This is YOUR business, I havent got a clue how to run something like this. The reason I am saying this is because the individual who said you were "unprofessional" needs to step up and prove they are a professional. (and I do not mean at criticism).

I myself find this to be a site of high quality where opinions are shared (agreeable or otherwise). Everyone on here has opinions and they are shared, along with personalities and characteristics. I asked for help once and both Blue Radio Girl and Ohsherrie were quick in their response and I appreciate that. I enjoy what has been created here and I realize my knowledge on certain things is low, believe me I have learned alot. If I am not sure of something I wont post, but if I ask a question I know it will be answered in some form or another. (lol)

As far as the "in crowd" the "out crowd", the "toilet paper crowd" or whatever type of crowd you think is hanging around., WAKE UP!!! THIS ISNT HIGH SCHOOL. Grow up and move on. If you dont like it here - then leave. Take your hate and other forms of disrespect and just go.

P.S Ummm since this post is so long can I get extra credit on my posts?

[Perrydise]

Deb and Deano, 3 words for you - DETROIT RED WINGS

[amaron]

Good riddance.

All HOTS cared about was pushing the 'There is no Journey without Steve Perry' line. If you didn't agree with that, you were a troublemaker. If you fought back, she got sensitive.

Bye.
