GNRonline forum people

[WAR41]

The GNRonline forum was shut down due to some one posting Axl's home phone number.  Obviously some people called it because I would think if no one did call then this would not have been an issue.

So I was just thinking about it before and I am curious.  Do you remember who posted the phone number?  Also, did you or anyone you know call the number?  I got back one day and the forum was closed and I found out about the phone number thing from other people.  I did not see any of the aftermath.

I believe it had something to do with Renato and or Xozi....the people who Axl mentioned at Rio ....but I might be wrong..

Remember Lolly?
ha ha ha

I still have the Real Video of that newsstory somewhere at home on my computer.

But as for posting Axl's number, I think that was just one of the reasons it was shut down. It went downhill very quickly. No active moderators make message board use nearly unbearable.

I  thought it was shut down because someone posted betas SSN.  IT was rumored axl posted on that forum under the name felix the cat.

[WAR41]

haha see this is what I love.  4 different people have posted and 4 different reasons have been given for the shutdown on gnronline.  That place really was a mess.

But I vividly remember going on it one night then the next night it being shut down.  Then I went to other forums and read that some one had posted Axl's phone number.

Dave I remember the Felix the Cat rumors.  And of course I remember Lolly.  I had that video clip a long time ago, I dont know what happened to it.  That woman was crazy.  I also remember when Harley talked about when she met Axl Lolly started cursing at her and saying some of the most horrible things I have ever read.  That was nuts.

There was a poster on here named Felix Da Housecat earlier this year. He started that "The Shape of Estranged" thread http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/board/index.php?topic=21426.msg366809#msg366809

The person posted 5 times in a 1 week period at the end of June early July of 2005.

Before somebody starts thinking that's Axl, that user's e-mail address belongs to a educational facility which is located outside of the USA.....

So Jarmo, what you are telling us is that Axl is going to college overseas???  What is he studying?  Personally, I think he'd be a natural for marine biology, just look at the Estranged video.  This is great news.

I remember after the forum was shut down (for a few days we could still access it by typing out the addy in the browser bar) everyone was scrambling to find a new place to talk.

Remember the day Buckethead was announced as the new guitarest?  There wasn't one reaction in that place that didn't start with WTF!?

[Eclipsed107]

Oh yes, and it was because his phone number and address was posted.

I remember reading that one.  I was depressed for a week.  Trading in the top-hat for a chicken bucket?  Just when I was starting to get use to the idea, Bucket leaves.

Not long after the 02 tour it went down and has not been put back up live since! The person behind the site was some dude called NIATSIE. It was a pretty fucking good site in my opinion! Did any of you lot visit it or post on it? Mike

No trying to be a smartass here, but just in case you didn't know - an IP doesn't have to be the actual IP and reveal the actual computer/ country. If I wanted to, I could make it look to you like I'm posting from Brazil or Japan, when in fact I'd still be posting from good old Germany - no big thing, if you check the IP then, it would give you a data out of the blue, something even my ISP and even I don't know. I don't know what that trick / technique is called, but it's definetely possible. I've seen and tried it with a friend who is a bit more computer literate than I am. Anyway, what I'm saying is, when someone wants to remain anonymous, the IP is not a problem.

[ppbebe]

Yeah, true conny but I don't think you can use  the addy of, say oxford uni.
