I get all my info from here, but don't post because I dont feel like, in most instances, i have anything of substance to add. I've been following the band since 1987, seen then them 8-10 times, and consider myself a legit fan of the band. There are a lot of people here that have great info and insight into the band, and its nice to be able to come here and see it.

I got tossed out of Truth 2-3 years ago for posting that I liked the site better when it was run by MSL and his wrestling buddies - banned FOREVER; tried twice to re-register, only to be denied, and later contacted by someone from there saying not to bother trying again; me and my 15 posts werent welcome. So, punted out of 1 site for expressing my opinion, and then potentially blocked from another, far better, legitimate site for not expressing my opinion enough? THIS SITE IS WAY ABOVE THAT! I dunno - if you want to make it an exclusive site, where post count is the only thing that matters, would that be doing the legitimate, i love the band but dont have the time to post about them all day, fans any good? We aren't the issue here - its the pyschopathic, lonely, mentally disturbed people like fuckball at Truth that you need to block. I just think it would be a shame to tell people like me, who do no harm to the site (and in many ways help by not adding our 2 cents 20 times a day just to have our voices heard) that we aren't qualified to be members...thats my 2 cents...once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think a guy that works at a bagel shop can afford to pay $1200 to go to a GNR show? And it just so happens to be Rick who gets banned for life for allegedly leaking the discs but Alfrod and MSL who are known hoarders and leakers get free VIP front row tickets and are allowed at shows anytime does anyone think that is sketchy at all?

TB know who the offendrrs are so this tells me they dont know or cant manage the offenders. Instances like this why GNR need proper management. This would never had happened in terms of the excessive takedowns online if GNR had proper reputable management.

Fernando probably done his usual blame a former employee even though weeks before we knew about the locker fernando was notified and he could have stopped the leaks but instead ignored then the shower of leaks happened axl found out then asked fernando about where did the leaks come from? then fernando said it's zutaut's fault. my guess is that's what happened Edited November 26, 2019 by The Rough Mixes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TB actually gave him 30k not to leak the emails he even made a video blackmailing TB saying i have info about band members and employees and former employees of the band then we never hear about it again until msl said that they gave him 30k about it and if it was false TB would have sued him for defamation of character Edited November 26, 2019 by The Rough Mixes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying the emails were fake or that MSL were lying (I don't know), just that I object to it becoming a "fact" and "proven" among us hardcores. We do tend to accept appealing rumors as facts because it fits with how we would like reality to be or what we already believe. It's a human thing.

Not everything he say is lies. He is good at taking some real info that he has and use it to build up a larger story with fake or exaggerated bits to try to use it in trading to get even more stuff. It is the same way traders work to acquire new songs, only MSL does this with information. But that also means it is really hard to know what is lies and what is factual. I have decided to not trust anything unless it is actually verified somehow because I would hate it if I helped to advance their petty schemes by passing on unverified rumors and claims just because I happen to think they are plausible or because I would like them to be true. That might make me come across as naive and uninformed, but at least I will never realize I have been a pawn in their games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I joined the forums around 2002 and I've never censored myself, ever. I've had a LOT of unpopular opinions over the years but I've always stuck by what I believed. I've always tried to be nice in explaining my views, etc but this particular experience is something altogether different. I was just explaining this to a user who was spinning records with me at my house the other night. I'm aware that my posts in this thread probably come off as crass and even outright rude, but I'm very passionate about this board and it's community. To see it attacked by "fans" who claim to be working on behalf of the bands management is just infuriating. GNR fans have had to put up with so much insane bullshit just to remain a fan of the band. To see then have to deal with this on top of everything they've dealt with in the past two decades, just makes me sick to be honest. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often liken being a fan of something to being a parent (not that I am a parent...) It's the ones that actually criticize their children, pull them up on shit behaviour, and sometimes make decisions that are unpopular that care the most. Mindless, endless and constant praise (or negativity for that matter) isn't a sign you;re a bigger 'fan', it's a sign that you're probably brainwashed and obsessed. Or desperate to be popular. N.B. - What new statement from the board are people referring to? I can't seem to see anything? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
