There are a few people who have made it their part-time job to police the forum of people they don't feel should post here.

Instead of just putting them on ignore, they must continually reprimand these people who they don't feel are posting in the forum properly.

Are you talking about yourself here?

Worshipper.

I like how you bring up Slash and my ban to discussion because you can't argue against anything about GNR in this thread. So cute.

Both are relevant to the discussion. It's a legitimate question... if the band is such a joke, why is this section waaay more happenin than Slash's? You can't answer that without admitting that Axl, even though he is now a "joke" in your eyes, and is not even trying anymore, is waaay more interesting than Slash to GnR fans. Oops. Your banning is relevant because it demonstrates just how important it is you engage in discussion about a band you openly consider to be a joke.

As for your accusation that I can't defend GnR in this thread, you're wrong. There are plenty of bands that just tour the old hits with lineups that contain few members of the original lineup. This isn't spin, that isn't Axl zealotry, it's fact. Maybe if instead of going to MSL's forum during your ban, you should've gone to other band forums. Some of your arguments as to why this band is a joke are laughable. Some of your arguments have merit, but that begs the question, why are you here again if you consider the band a joke again? Oh right, because it's "cool" to say horrible things about Axl and post the banner tranny in every thread because you're so impressed with it (even though it's like 2 years old at this point).

What I do think of as a joke is any person who spend time posting on the fan forum of a band he/she considers a joke.

Oh didn't you get the memo? Them thinking it's a joke and spending all this time here running their mouths means they're more enlightened than the silly rubes who actually enjoy the band for what it is. I just laugh though that the Slash forum is so dead here. By their rationale, Slash is doing everything the fans want, making music, doing interviews, playing new music, making appearances, and yet, and yet.. his section remains dead as shit. Why is that? Oh right, because apparently he and his music don't have that much discussion value. Other than, how many rock n roll cliche guitar parts will be in the next record?

Why the fuck would that video be removed? More of warchild's nonsense?

I don't get how it's a violation. Anyway, I agree with the above poster, I really want to see this video now.

I don't really see the point, to be honest. I just have a standard water jug that I keep in the 'fridge and I pour and drink from that.

I guess some of it depends on where you live. Where I live, the water quality is considered very high, but they still fluoridate the water. Most of Europe doesn't fluoridate the water, so conspiracy theories aside, it does save money to not add fluoride.

Some would argue fluoride is bad for you, even in the doses you're getting from drinking tap water. As I understand it, fluoride doesn't help your teeth systemically- by being in your blood stream. It only helps by being applied topically. So basically, they spend all this money fluoridating the water for the few brief moments it passes over your teeth.

I know the tinfoil hat jokes are imminent, but I thought this would dovetail nicely with my air purifier thread.

Do any of you own a water filter? If so, which one? I'm thinking about getting a Berkey water filter. They're one of the few companies who offer filters which remove fluoride, whereas the off-the-shelf brands (Brita, PUR) do not remove fluoride.

Do you think that fluoride is, to some extend, bad for you when ingested? Does your country fluoridate the water?

What does "A.F.U." mean in Ashba's latest tweet?

Myles is like the nuGnR employee of the Conspirators. He does what he's told.

Yes, you're right, Axl didn't tinker with the record for years and years. That's just crazy zealot talk.

Slash is blocking the release for more money.

I don't get why Axl is such a puss about releasing music.

Fear and self doubt.

Well he seemingly has no fear nor doubt about continuing to use the name, so I'm not sure that's entirely the case. I think he's more just an eternal tinkerer and perfectionist.

He keeps the name because only a complete moron would give it up.

Your second bit is just Axl zealot spin.

It's "Axl zealout spin" to say I think he's an eternal tinkerer and perfectionist? That's the most moronic thing I've ever heard. But after several conversations with you here and gnfnr, you're not really good at actually processing what people write. I encourage you to listen to Chinese Democracy and then read the history of its creation.

Give me a fucking break. What's clear is that one of the two of us will die before a reunion and however sad, ugly or unfortunate anyone views it, it is how it is. Those decisions were made a long time ago and reiterated year after year by one man. There are acts that, once committed between individuals, they are what they are. To add insult to injury almost day after day, lapsing into year after year, for more than a decade, is a nightmare. Anyone putting his own personal entertainment above everything else is sickening.

Hahaha.

Grogin:

Beta's petty crusade against Slash (e.g. walking out of Canter's son's party because Slash got up to play):

Walking out of a show is now a "crusade"? Are you a drama or theater major perchance?

Have I stumbled into some sort of women's sensitivity forum?

Last time I looked Axl & Slash were rock stars and I like my rock stars to be at least a bit non-PC.

Exactly this.

I don't wanna roll out the list of what these guys have done over the years, but yall realise these guys were/are not Coldplay, right?

I'm amazed at the watered down, butthurt, PC, emo hooray for tolerance ass nancy boy uproar over shit like this.

How the fuck did you people come to like GNR anyway, This I Love?

Sorry buddy, but you can't rewrite history. The "watered down, butthurt, PC, emo hooray for tolerance ass nancy boy uproar" happens quite a bit when people still bring up Axl calling Madison a lesbian. Nice try though.

I don't get why Axl is such a puss about releasing music.

I feel bad for complaining about her singing along, because it's awesome to have a live stream, and it's very kind of her to do so, but like.. if you're filming the show, presumably you're doing it so that others can enjoy your work and appreciate the gig too. Oh well, still cool to have a stream.

I wish she'd stop singing along. It's like the female William Hung.

Brain's groove is indefatigable.

What's funny here is that most of you seem to believe the OP, as if that gif is how the video ended.

Here's how the video actually ended:

The Terminator scans Slash, Duff, Matt, Dizzy, with Axl being last. Then the assessment was made by the Terminator about the band being a waste of ammo. The Terminator didn't just scan Axl and say that. Some of the dumbass responses to the OP are priceless.

Are you bitter or what?

You're one to talk about bitterness, pal.

I just thought it was funny how many people apparently have never watched the video.

I think Slash needs to attend sensitivity training.

You should start a petition.
