Popular Post Wagszilla Posted November 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2019 My solution is not going to Guns N' Roses concerts, buying Guns N' Roses merchandise, following Guns N' Roses on social media, etc. Until management is changed and fans are shown respect, that's my permanent solution. Get on board, TB/GNR or uh... 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhazUp Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) My solution is to take the money I would have spent on GNR merch lately and use the extra cash to upgrade my membership on the Pearl Jam Ten Club from digital to analog. Whatever happens, we hardcore GNR fans will always be able to share and access videos and live streams somehow. So I am not worried about my own personal ability to see them, however I hope there is a solution where honest newcomers to the GNR fandom get to acess them as well. Videos online are the only reason I became interested in following GNR in the first place Edited November 27, 2019 by WhazUp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycgunner Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 3000 seems like an arbitrarily high number. Appreciate the intention but that cutoff penalizes many forum members in good standing. I’ve lurked here since the mid 2000s and even have a prior user name (forgot the password and the college email it was tied to is long defunct). Maybe there could multiple qualifiers: post #, years registered, pay a fee, no new users/visitors, etc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying start with either a really high post count and/or joined X number of years ago, then let other members in from there. You've been around for years and should be included, it doesn't have to be entirely about post count, but it can be a factor.

double talkin jive mfkr Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) i want axl to dedicate DTJM to me and this board it'd go something like this "You know the internet, I'm not too sure I'm a fan of it. They'll say shit about you, you can't control it and they'll call you out for taking their money, not releasing new music and censoring their posts. Well home fucks. If you think my voice is shot and fernando is a douche and why the old guys aren't in the band, then I got news for you... (sorum and izzy appear - the aliens are fired on the spot) This is a song called Double Talkn Jive motherfucker and we'll dedicate it to the same profile from mygnrforum you stupid fucking asshole!

I agree. 1 hour ago, RussTCB said: That was my thought; like some folks could be grandfathered in so to speak due to their history of actively posting. @Dragunsis one that comes to mind. Other folks like that could get a pass into the new sections for example. That's a good idea, because you probably already know who all is a regular/active member here. I always see the same usernames posting 80% of the time so I know who I can trust, and when I see a new profile it stands out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

double talkin jive mfkr Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) Can someone spill the beans on the seemingly fake new bot/troll accounts (probably funded by TB) that tried to counter any die hard type posts critical of the cash grab, this was quite obvious here in 2016-2017.

TimeToDieee Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 This here will be my 50th post and I registered end of July, 2016. With that said, I know that I'm not one of the "well known" people around here, and even if the minimum required post count was 100 it would still probably take another few years for me to be eligible to get access to this so called private area. However I still would absolutely support the creation of such an area of the forum just because I know those assholes wouldn't be able to ruin it.

2020_Intensions Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Not to be a bummer but isn't this whole idea of a "private section" kinda too late considering just how much GnR content we've already lost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfitx77 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I only have 40 posts, but I’ve been a registered member since 2006. Hopefully, date of registration can be factored into the criteria. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadSlash Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 dude, I consider myself Active and I think I joined in 2006, I have less than 2500 posts, fuck a 3k requirement, that's ridiculous and will just lead to mass spam. I see a 3k requirement, and that tells me I have to post "lol" or "Good point" 500 fucking times. Not that it matters anyway, this persons/persons infiltrates everything eventually. Some people trusted in the community are obviously helping them, probably for some unreleased shit, or simply because they enjoy trolling and watching the forums fucking react every time they tell you to jump. The point is, it's not a simple solution, because a 3k wall or even a 1k wall is going to piss off legit users and it's all going to get reported anyway. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, that would make this place absolutely ridiculous. Imagine how it would look like. Me, I registered in 2006 but only started posting properly/regularly around 2015. And I'm not gonna start posting crap just to make it count. Edited November 27, 2019 by jamillos 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Jaro- Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I lived without GNR for 15-20 years, guess will survive without in the future... Not interested myself in overpriced live shows of NITL, not interested in lame merch or reissues of albums made 39 years ago... had fun "discovering" old live shows... My AFD and UYIs are long time ago overplayed... Guess non-gnr part of forum will be enough for me... Fuck em... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
