How does merging the VR section with the Ex-Gunners section make the board more dedicated to GN'R?

Say you're checking out a message board, and see there are sections for My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, AFI and Death Cab for Cutie. Alright, then you go to another board, and see sections for My Chemical Romance and "Other bands". Which message board would you consider is more dedicated to My Chemical Romance? Or are they the same?

this isnt an Axl worship forum.

If u had a forum where everyone agreed one way or the other, the forum wouldnt be successful and would be very stale.


Like it or not, Slash,Duff,Izzy,Steven,Matt will always be Guns N Roses whether they are in the band or not just like Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin, Paul McCartney will always be a Beatle even though they broke up several decades ago.

VR could make 8 Cds but SLash will always be GNR so this is not a NEW GNR forum, its a GNR forum and that includes everything past,present and future.

I'm sorry?? How many of those bands have members that used to be in My Chemical Romance?

We already have the "Bad Obsession" section, we're talking about the "Ex-members section", I don't see how merging two subsections (which are in place to have more organized discussions on the board) of the "Ex-Members" part shows more dedication to GN'R.? If anything, singling out the ex-members projects is showing more support to GN'R past & present.? If I went to a Death Cab For Cutie board, I would think it would be more supportive to have a section for the Postal Service then to lump the band in with all the others.

You could start up an Adler's Appetite section and a sub-board with tour dates, but would enough people post there to make it worthwhile?? Obviously VR is attracting enough attention to make it worthwhile to seperate them from the other ex-member's projects (for the simple fact that there is more discussion about them).

Change the thread title to "Why the HTGTH board isn't 100% dedicated to NEW GN'R ?" and maybe I could see your point.

Well, its not logical to make the board more dedicated to GN'R. But the other points he presents are somewhat logical. A single section for the old members.

I disagree with those who demand ex-gunner sections, you should be happy there is even a VR section, VR got nothing to do with GN'R today. Slash and Duff are long gone from Guns N' Roses, the band has moved on with new members, so the board should be focused on those who are actually in the band. Slash and Duff have long moved on, maybe it's time for their fans to do the same thing and step into 2007.

^ Right on !

Otherwise this 'new GN'R' bullshit ain't gonna stop. It's been more than 10 years now ...

Jarmo, can you write your opinion on the subject ?

Why having a VR section ? Why isn't there a Adler's Appetite section or a Rockstar Supernova section then ?

Why not moving all those sections to the Bad Obsession one ?

There could be a huge "the Velvet Revolver thread" there, like there is for other bands.

Considering the fact that VR news no longer hit the main page of the site, why giving them such a platform on the boards ?

People always repeat here that it's time to move on and support GN'R, but I don't see how having a VR section is supporting GN'R Huh

I hope it's not just a way to keep traffic, because that would be compromising no

Yeah, I don't think having a VR section has anything to do with supporting GN'R.
That being said, this is a wonderful Guns N' Roses forum, I would just like to see VR gone from it.
Nico is right, let VR have their own thread in Bad Obsession, just like other bands.
Removing the VR section would be a good way to get rid of all the Axl haters who only come here for VR and not Guns N' Roses. People like tomass74 who come here just for VR and to slag off Axl, why do we need them? This is a Guns N' Roses forum, it makes no sense for them to come here just to talk about a whole different band. They should go find a VR site instead.

well said bro  peace   

i'm not going to tell jarmo how to run the board or anything, but you and nico both make some great points there.    It'd be nice to not have that VR shit around.

... says the guy who can't resist visting the VR section to trash their new band...

As it stands right now, Slash & Duff have played on every single song on every single release made by Guns N' Roses (who this website is dedicated to), and you want to discourage conversation about them? -- It doesn't make sense that this board should have no "Ex-Gunners" section... and futhermore, because VR are more popular than other ex-gunner solo projects, it doesn't make sense to not have them seperated to keep the board more organized.
