[stevew2]

It's early in the morning and I'm still way too decaffienated but I'm thinking there's a message to be received here.

Something about getting bent comes to mind.

Yes but who??? Them or US?????

That is still unclear, but I'll be honest, I'm a little scared and right now, I think I need to be held.

come on by

She needs to be held to be comforted , you sick bastard

i can do that

With three weeks of the tour left, this forum would probably go 99% off topic anyway, without something like a lead singer change or band member resignation to talk about.

hey and its been two years now with the same lineup... anything can happen...
and its already 85% OT...

there are all kinds of critters comin out of the woodwork

[Blueskies]

WTF??? I am now confused???

Forum One....simple!!! :wink:

OHHHH now I get it FO....nice

Put an MO in front of that and pluralize it and it would make even more sense.

How about NOMOJO? Oops, that one's already been taken.

Going out on a limb here...

Is it possible that, due to some things that may
have been posted/read here, that the BAND has
told Drew to cease associating the band's name
with this forum???

We all know this forum is THE KING of all
Journey forums; maybe the band wants to keep
peeps focused on THIER official site/forum where
everything is always sushine and roses.

I'm probably WAY off but I always love
a good, old-fashioned conspiracy

dude welcome back.. if you are home...

If the BashJourney website was not taken as an insult, I don't think the band would have an problem with this in one. The site is called MelodicRock, not Journey Music.

The website name does not contain the words Journey at all, nor does it promote the band on the Front page of the website.

Nothing for someone to have a legal issue with from what I can see.

Don't sell yourself short. That's happened before.....can't speak to Andrew or this place. But I can most certainly confirm that my boards, when they were up, got some nasty and dare I say, ridiculous requests from folks at or associated with Nomota Mountain....

BAHAA! LOL Yup!!

Good, old-fashioned, jealousy is all. I don't think you could be too far off. The Journey camp never were ones for allowing anything other than unicorn farts and ego-glitter to be voiced in their presence. Hence why their boards are so heavily policed and soooo vanilla. (Read: lame.) So, I don't think it could be a coincidence that the top hit for "Journey Forum" taking curious info seekers to a place where all opinions are voiced (loudly and often) incurred a random name change.

(Best wishes to you H@kk!)

It's basically flipped flopped. Now it's a dedicted OT: forum. So, to talk about Journey, we should all prefix our subject lines with 'Journey: '



later~

I never visited your sites much back in the day, Frank, but I know your sites were never
"purposefully" maliscious towards the band.
And the same can be said for Drew...

If anything, Drew should be on The Big Machine's payroll
for as much POSITIVE press he has given them over the years.
Through all the craziness, Drew has always been a champion
for these guys (even when his other pal, Jeff got let go) and
has, IMO, balanced running a very "open-minded/free-speech"
forum and running the ONLY public site truly still interested
in bands like this quite well...

Shame on them IF they are involved with something as petty
as the name of a fan forum

I don't think the band is behind Andrew's change. Just like in making a Perry forum I just think he is making an effort to try to cut down on some of the fighting. When it's called Journey some complain about the number of OT threads on a Journey board, for example. Will it stem all the fighting? Not likely but it will cut out at least some of the complaints like about the OT threads. It became a catch all board anyway. Maybe he will make a seperate Journey board like the SP one and this catch all one will remain at the top since it is the first one people click on. At least seperating the topics seperates and contains certain reasons for fighting into different areas and may be easier for him to see, follow and administer a swift kick for.
By the way...good to see you posting, C.

I think it should be named "Journey / Off Topic" or "Forum One (subtitle:) Formerly Journey" or something but it's definitely not a dedicated Journey forum anymore.

[KDOUBLEU]

I dont think it matters what its called. We're all gonna just keep talking about the same stuff as always. I wouldnt mind seeing Engelberts name back up again though.

Yes! I liked it being Engleberts forum too!! Thats my vote.

Maybe he just got tired of all the tattletales PM-ing him every two seconds over every little asinine thing they don't want to read about, or every friggin little thing they disagree with as opposed to them moving on to something more suitable to their taste. I'm guessing this isn't too far off from what Andrew faces when he wakes up everyday:


"ANDREW---------

"Somebody said a cuss word."

"Somebody called me a jerk."

"Somebody posted a picture of a booby."

"Somebody mentioned 'Journey' in the 'Perry' forum."

"Somebody said I don't know what I'm talking about."

"Somebody made fun of the state I live in."

"Somebody was being a big meany to me."

"Somebody said something bad about someone else."

"Somebody tried to intimidate me."

"Somebody gave me a dirty look."

"Somebody said my opinion doesn't count."

"Somebody keeps derailing my thread."

"Somebody keeps trying to re-rail the thread I keep derailing."

"Somebody keeps copying my pictures."

"Somebody won't let me copy their pictures."

"Somebody flirted with me."

"Somebody didn't flirt with me."

“Somebody didn’t put the toilet seat down.”

“Somebody didn’t leave the toilet seat up.”

"Somebody said their dad is bigger than my dad."

"Somebody mentioned 'booger' while I was eating dinner."

"Somebody made me cry."

"Somebody said they worship Perry more than I do."

"Somebody farted."

“Somebody doesn’t like the song ‘Open Arms.”

“Somebody peed in a cup at a concert.”

"Somebody talked about sex."

"Somebody said Neal really meant it when he said 'Fuck You.'"

"Somebody stuck their tongue out at me in an emoticon."

"Somebody made fun of my avatar."

"Somebody said they can hold their breath longer than I can."

"Somebody called me a 'fuckstick.'"

"Somebody said their beer taste better than my beer."

"Somebody likes Arnel's voice better than Steve’s."

"Somebody said their God can beat up my God."

"Somebody said they're rubber & I'm glue & everything I say bounces off of them & sticks back onto me ----------


WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!"

[donnaplease]

Those are great, Jason!!!

[Angel]

Haha!!! Too funny Jason!!!!

[Chubby321]

So no more Journey forum but there will be forums dedicate to

Styx
SP
Van Halen
Deff Leppard
JSS
Toto etc.

I am confused and somewhat disappointed.
