wfuckinga Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Could the Slash subforum be the reason why Axl doesn't come here anymore? Why do you think Dexter hasn't done a chat since 2008 or a rant since 2010? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellobeatle Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Just going to throw this out there: it's probaly because of the ridiculous topics (borderlining on fanaticism - i.e. the hypothetical Qs in the Discussion section that make up 80% of it) and the constant bitching of board members 24/7 - indicating this board is made up of a small percentage of fans who are unemployed and/or anti-social. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Around the time of the chats, someome speculated he only came to the forums because it was part of the deal with Best Buy, and that the forum visits counted as promo/interviews. I think that's very possibly what happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 It's not as if he popped round every weekend and then something happened and he never returned, he was on here once out of nowhere as a bit of a novelty and then he came back once to give Madison a bollocking, thats about it really. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he speaks his mind freely when he's not happy but has he admitted to writing that rant to her? I'm always suspicious when someone's name is put to something without their confirmation.

I really hope he doesn't think like that.He is totally likable, light, and humorous in his live interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dariablue Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Wow there are actually people who doubt that was Axl writing to Madison? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohlovelyrita Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Wow there are actually people who doubt that was Axl writing to Madison? Ahh, it was only a matter of time before you purposely misunderstood me again!"You like me, you reallly like me"!! Really you do, I see you waste your likes on people who disagree with me. If I find out you're over 30.....Now where did I saw Axl didn't write anything to Madison?"I thought it had input.

Dariablue Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Calm down, psycho, not everything is about you and not everything I type is about you unless I write your name or quote you. It's cute that you have such a high opinion of yourself, albeit completely unwarranted. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recklessroad Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I still think he was upset about something he heard or read and had a few things to get off his chest. I also don't think he will be back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PITBOSS Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I still think he was upset about something he heard or read and had a few things to get off his chest.

Angelica Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Wow there are actually people who doubt that was Axl writing to Madison? Er, this. It was from his account, it certainly sounded like him and I don't recall him disowning it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 With wfa's permission, I moved this out of Canter Banter seeing as Marc replied. I'd be interested in getting the general forums opinion on this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristmasFnatic Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 If I was Axl Rose, visits a forum where people say I sound like shit, fat, etc., I wont re-visit again. I dont blame him nor the fans who think such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnari Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I wish Axl would return..I have many questions for him I want to know more why he called Slash a cancer, HOF, former gunners etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppetiteForGnR Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 For someone who called the internet "a big Garbage can", Axl is not doing much to clean it up considering his rants on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Axl's general stance over the last 15 years seems to be that of avoiding interviews, forums and publicity in general so the cynical side of me thinks he does these things only when forced to by an unseen pressure. I don't think he came here because he loves the work we do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Axl doesn't come here because people speak what's on their mind. Granted, some do so quite rudely. But yeah. There's nothing to gain by ANY party involved in Axl coming here, imo. It'll just blow up and get everybody mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magisme Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Axl doesn't even go to HTGTH. He doesn't give a shit about his fans. It has nothing to do with this forum. End of fucking story. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2112 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I don't blame him for not wanting to visit this site... it is pretty negative. At the same time, it would be worth looking at it from time to time! the people posting are huge GnR fans and a lot of what's being said is negative but it could also be deemed helpful (in some cases). I probably wouldn't reply to anything but I would look here to see where my fanbase's collective head is at.I can't find the 2010 rant, I think I read it at the time any links?

magisme Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Have we learned nothing about Axl? The only thing he DOES respond to is negativity. Items on Axl's radar: TB, cheeseburgers and those who are Out Ta Get Him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
