MR CD Reviews - A Comment

[Luvsaugeri]

you are a caveman... and you have been living in a CAVE all these years, that answers a lot of questions!! :D:D

Is that who that is? I though it was someone else.

Me thinks you are going to be busy today Deb!!

Andrew sorry you are having to put up with such crap. I don't always agree with you but I have never doubted that your reveiws were your own.

[Big J]

In Dean's defense......he was drunk

What bullshit. He's still going... More mindless rantings... Best thing I ever did was can him from this site.

Worst thing you ever did was let his shit go on as long as you did.

The guy's a dick, best exemplified here, by the way.

[Behshad]

Im relaxed NOW, Tito Thanks for the avatar

[Moon Beam]

Your experienced track record in your chosen profession is what makes up my mind
in any argument about reviews.
Always nicely detailed and good reads all around, thanks Andrew.

You go right ahead and allow Dean to trash Andrew who you supposedly respect so much.

Fuck you. Seems like you take any chance given to blame me for shit,,,,
You are a member there and you know what is going on there. How dare you be a member of a place where Dean is posting against Drew???

Andrew knows what is going on and he knows I have nothing but respect for him.
For a punk ass kid like you to come in here and try to stir some shit up, knowing what was said at both forums, you have a lot of nerves dude.

I'm a member there also and didn't know about this until Andrew posted it.

The difference is that he went over there, read and posted there, and then came here to do his trashing.

[styxman]

You lot wake up, it's not Dean posting over there it's Joe Elliott (2 T's or 2L's who gives a shit) He purchased the rights to use Dean's screen name, fuck, even I twigged that

What, the site? Or the trashing? We are talking about RWF blaming the site and the wrong people for what transpired. Saying that B was disrespectful to Andrew was out of line considering what he's been doing over there today.

[Big J]

This bugs me - so lemme ask this.

Andrew - why do you fucking care, aside from the plagiarism charges, which merit a response I suppose.

You're respected in the industry, here, and everywhere I've ever seen as music sites go.

You do a goddamned good job. And this recognized-by-most loser at life is gonna open his piehole and you're going to give it the time of day?

You do great work, everyone knows it, and you've got a beautiful family (congrats, by the way). Ignore it.

i agree with ya.. Andrew will be respected period... BUT Dean is no loser.. maybe a bit outspoken ,, no loser..

Correction. I posted over there (for the last time by the way ) Stating my displeasure at the anti-MR sentiments over there, then saw Behshad make a post here stating (paraphrasing) "out of line? yes maybe. unusual? no." chuckle, chuckle, giggle, giggle.

[RedWingFan]

I thought Behshad was pissed at Dean for making up users on that forum.

MMmmm. Can't answer that one NIG.

I think he was just making a joke. If you read all he posted over there, before you made your last post, you'd realize his jokes had nothing to do with disrespect to Andrew.

You can try to paint it as you'd like. I know what I read. Thanks though.

Well then you should check on your reading skills. It's unfair for you to come here and make untrue claims just to make yourself look better. Look like the good little MR supporter, but try to say B is not. I am reading all the same things you are and I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and just say something must have been lost in translation. You're welcome.

[nolippin]

I thought so, too.

[annie89509]

I don't get it. Wasn't Deano one of the most, if not THE most, popular members of this board? Remember all the posts and threads of support every time he took a "vacation"? Now, seems like he's burned all bridges. A shame, really.

Dude

Did you read ONE post made by me supporting what Dean said against Andrew? NO
Did you read the PMs between me and Drew , where he has NO ISSUES what so ever with me or the site? NO
Did you try for one second to understand what is going on , before you jumped the guns and pointed me out as the bad guy???

I dont know what this obession is you got for me, but at this point is more scary than something to brag about.....
I have people post on that board, just like Drew has people posting here. There are people bashing Journey here,,, does that mean that ANDREW is bashing Journey? NO,,,, He is just trying to run a board, just like I am,,,,,
Dean made some comments about Drew's reviews... Drew answered to him here, and then it went back and forth,,,,, How do I get the blame for it? I think youre as respoinsible for what Dean said, or Drew for that matter cause you also post at both places,,,, but as usual , its just easy for you to try to make me look like the bad guy,.,,,, but to make it plain and simple, so even your simple mind can understand it, this morning, as soon as I commmunicated with both Dean and Drew, I posted a minor guide line for those who post there..... and here it is. If after reading this, you still think that I should be held responsible for the dispute going on between Drew and Dean, then I will recommend you for a 6 months vacation to your local mental hospital and I will pay for all the costs occured, with or without insurance!

While this forum takes pride in giving the members full freedom to express their opinions , we still moderate this place to make sure that this freedom doesnt get misused & abused.
I can not stress this enough that you earn this freedom ONLY and ONLY if you have the WISDOM and preferebly the TRUTH .....
While I think its OK if anyone has any opinions in regards of MR and how it has changed over the years, I will not allow any kind of personal attacks towards Andrew because of the following reasons

* Andrew is a friend. Not just my friend, but a friend to every single one of us.

* Andrew has always tried to be fair , when resolving conflicts.

* Andrew isnt a member here, so he can not defend himself. Got a problem with him? Email him.

* Andrew has always been honest and open with his opinions, indcluding his reviews.

* Andrew will only get fired up, when he has to defend himself. Which I dont see anything wrong with that.

And finally, its thanks to Andrew, that we all know eachother. He has worked hard to create a place where all of us have or have had our share of fun. Attacking the man personally will get you nowhere. You may get a handful of people cheering for you, but general public that knows and cares, knows fully about Andrew's integrity and no one will turn against him because of childish comments and F-bombs....

So with that said, please take any kind of personal opinions/attacks to PM/Email. Im sure Andrew is fully capable of defending himself.

Yep, I did say that. And its very simple..... But I will explain it to you since you didnt get it. What I meant was, Was Dean out of line? Yes he was,,,, was it something unsual(for Dean to be out of line,,,in general) No.....

I bailed immediately after reading the accusations of plagarism and lies against Andrew. Props on these new guidelines. Hopefully you'll have things run smoothly over there. I just rather have no part of it.
Of course I didn't see PM's, but I also didn't see post replys from you stating that the above was not allowed. Just looked like business as usual over there.

I stated that within an hour after I read what had been going on while I was sleeping.
and if you suggest that "it looked like business as usual", then you mean , Andrew gets bashed all the time? which is not true. And if you say it is ture, funny how you have been a member there for so long supporting it. Shame on you!

[RedWingFan]

Maybe not all the time. But Andrew and MR getting bashed there is not uncommon. As Drew has stated himself.

And if you say it is ture, funny how you have been a member there for so long supporting it. Shame on you!

I should be shamed because I've posted there and you should escape blame even though YOU "moderate" it?
Makes perfect sense!

[weatherman90]

Your reviews are great Andrew!

The only disagreement I have is with Lightning Strikes Again and Songs from the Sparkle Lounge both getting 85%. I think Dokken's is a much stronger album, I think it's more consistent and it's melodic rock at its best, just my take.

i agree with ya.. Andrew will be respected period... BUT Dean is no loser.. maybe a bit outspoken ,, no loser..

Please. His motivation in life is to stir shit. That's it. Lie after lie. Remember the first night of the JSS tour with Journey he claimed to have the bootleg, and wasnt sharing? He gets off on it.

I understand a lot are fond of him and Lula having met them, and for what they went through with the child they lost. That, I will give you, is admirable, and the measure of a real man in how he dealt with it. I included the man and his family in my prayers during that time.

But that doesnt change the fact that the guy gets off on being a dick (I doubt even he would contest that) - and shit like this is the measure of a loser, I'm sorry. You don't accuse someone you call(ed) a friend of stealing the work of another - especially when that's the man's bread and butter.

[Allied Forces]

Why is this a topic? People say what they will on other message boards. Tattle tales/Stool pigeons aren't something I respect. If people want to talk about a concert review - let them. Who cares? As a former lurker/part time poster I can say that I enjoy the CD reviews here on melodicrock.com very much. However if someone disagrees with one as I do at times I'm not going to run and find that criticism and post it here. That's silly. Read the review here and agree or disagree. Your opinion in the end is all that matters. The reviews on this site are meant as a guide for your musical dollar. 3rd party opinions are just someone else's thoughts and shouldn't matter to the individual.
