Mort, you want some objective analysis? You are a sunt. Do you know what a sunt is? It is a cunt with a soft "c".
One thing I don't do is call someone in a derogatory manner. No band is worth the emotional investment to get irate enough to resort to personal insults.

This news is the second best news ever. Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal seemed to be a nice guy. But, was meh as far as a fit for the band goes. About 1/4 as shit as Dj Ashba.

Yeah, for all our supposed faults, do you or I ever go down this road with any of the peeps here? Not that I see.
It makes it all the easier to invalidate you as a serious person. Might as well tell me how

Is this better guys.....any day that you guys DO POST, it's usually about your disliking of how the band is operating.
Hmmm, I'd say that's overstated.
I would say its more accurate that we have a higher percentage of posts that fall into that category than most. I think that's obviously and indisputable.
I would also have to accuse you of some selective memory, however. Because of how much you don't like such posts, that going to tend to be all you ever recall and reference. I may not go as crazy with the pom-poms as some, but I say plenty of things that are non-committal at worst, if not outright positive.
But, as a rule, they will never be referenced by you. Yet you could probably give me chapter and verse about something I said that rankled you.
I'm sure my memory is poor. Im not sure what your getting at. Im admitting I have had negative things to say before. However, you and Mort stand out to me as being two people who complain just about on a daily basis. Sorry if it's not LITERALLY everyday .

And it somewhat discredits Jarmo's own rule of ''any personal attacks, slander and/or insults of any kind will result in action from the administrator and/or moderators''! I mean one poster came on a few weeks ago and decimated two-three fairly interesting and innocuous discussions as well as insulting a poor newbie (who I doubt would want to come back!) yet that poster has carte blanche because of correct (gnr) politics.

I'm sure my memory is poor. Im not sure what your getting at.
Here's what I'm getting at.
Let's say I make 5 posts over 3 threads one morning. Of those 5, you could label 2 outright positive, and 3 non-committal in terms of emotion, and just talking.
Then I will post something you could label negative.
In my experience, odds are someone like you is then going to quote that 6th post and give me some variation of :
Oh my god. Again with this guy. Do you ever say anything good? Why do you follow this band? Why are you here? Why were you born? Why couldn't your parents just have stayed friends? You are the worst person in the history of ever.
The other posts I made that morning are ignored. The one you don't like becomes the focus, and erroneously labeled "all I ever talk about".
It's inaccurate.

It's a weird dynamic you have with this band. It's kinda like the abusive boyfriend syndrome. You don't like it, but keep coming back.
Ouch!
But but but they want to like GN'R. They weally do.

He's 100% right. That is absolutely how I would describe the relationship.

So you should feel a little like GNR. Media and the public give Axl a reputation of being late "all the time". When in reality, it doesn't happen all that much. But why would the media and public think that way? Because it's happened ENOUGH, or more often than it should. Your posts complaining about GNR, happen ENOUGH for people to notice.

I think that's a good comparison. Fair.

What "relationship"
Guns is my fav band EVER
Pets named after them
I'm getting a tat
Later this year; Guns logo
I sing their praises!
Long and short? LOVE them.
And I would LOVE new music...
But it's no big deal!
They are not my life
They do not owe me a thing
Not even info!
You seem invested
To an unhealthy degree
Maybe take a break?
Let me say again:
I crave new music big time
The thought excites me!
But will I get it?
I do not have the answer
And that's a-ok.
We'll get it, or not
I think the sun will still rise
In either case, guys.
Nothing personal...
You seem very passionate;
That's admirable
But, please, take a breath!
Enjoy the music we have!
It's fantastic stuff

Well, I mean, if you think it'll help the general atmosphere....
Your momma is so fat, when she sits around the house, she sits AROUND the house.
Your momma is so fat, when she goes to the beach, the tides come in.
Your momma is so fat, Buckethead uses her as the main supplier for his KFC "hats".
Your momma is so fat, she's going to take over BOTH guitar players spots for GnR
Your momma is so fat, Tommy helped write "Take Me Down to the Hospital" after she sat on him.
And finally...
Your momma is so fat, Fernando wants to date her.
That's it folks, I'm out! Thank you very much! Don't forget to tip your waiters!

I am sorry. I just don't get the incessant need to be an ass. When Radiohead went sideways, to me, after OK Computer, I simply jumped in to TOOL. No need to focus negative energy on another bands fanbase. If you don't like it, take your ball and go home or somewhere else that get's your dick hard. If one of your former bands that you liked changes direction and gives you something you can sink your teeth in to, then come back. Simple philosophy.
Sitting around saying the same old thing day after day after day is the very definition of insanity.
But, maybe we have to consider that that you actually get off on being a negative prick.

I think Fernando coming on here plus Frank's reassurance was all we needed at this point.
If something wasn't said after two members leaving the group, I know I would have been very uncertain about the future of GNR.
Even if I disagree on how the public relations is run within GNR, I'm content with the information we have at the moment. There's still a Guns N Roses and more information will come in a few months.
