"Sing us a song Mr. Piano Man...."

Is it me or were those lyrics posted dramatically wrong to the point where it's embarrassing that someone wrote such shit? Hmm well anyway I listened again to the song today and it's actually pretty good but an acquired taste. People who support 'the cause' will have a soft spot for it compared to people who are neutral.

I see warchild is back...

Thanx for noticing........!!!

COOL!.................

and ummm forsaken, what club is that!?

DAMM...Drunks against Mad Mothers?

W.

No hard feelings dude...

*Extends hand*

EXTeNDS HANd ...using ALL my fingers!!!

Rock ON!

WTF???????

On topic, I happen to like this song even though it's very different than anything else GNR have done. Excellent lyrics.

Oh and Warchild....shrooms?

YUP! we Bipolars are known to self-medicate from time to time

W.

AND......it was "helped along" with the aid of Mr. Psylocibin...............

Misfied Synapses....

W.

:devil: ZOMBIE ELVIS!!!!!!!

Well.......I don't know, but I used to have a friend that had a cougar cub.......in the HOUSE!

"therefore we are in reality substituting our concert./music experiences for a religious one......."

strongly agree..

I wholeheartedly (and unknowingly for many years) substituted music/concert experiences (and lifestyle) for a religious one...and still do.

Rock and roll had a sermon I could understand and relate to,it was (is) a tangible existence for me.

....................................

Did Axl Rose mold my personality?...I was living the GnR life ten years before they formed.

KUDOS ZINT

it's only Rock n roll but I LIKE IT............my religion too!

Here we go, once again.

Warchild - this board has been operating healthily for well over 5 years now. It's got many thousands of members at this stage, with over a million posts.

When you get a board with that many members, you get 'conflicts of opinion' - opinion being the key word here. Our job as moderators is to try and ensure that as many people as possible are happy - we do this by allowing members to express their opinions as freely as possible. This is why we have a GNR Board, a VR Board, an Early Days board, and an Ex Gunners board.

Now, as we can see here - making 25 000 people happy really isn't an easy task - in fact, it's pretty much impossible. Some people complain that we moderate too much as it is - while others, like yourself, will complain that we don't moderate enough.

Sure, occasionally the bashing in a section becomes a little intense - but there's no use pretending that Axl's a saint. He has his flaws, and people will inevitably discuss them. You don't have to scream and rant and rave at them for it - 1. You won't change their opinion and 2. You're not a moderator.

Either way, it's all about finding a balance between what's acceptable and what isn't. Generally, if a debate is civilised, has points backing it up, and is valid - then it's allowed, even if it's critical to an extent. If a topic is just straight out trolling and spam (to be honest, i'd consider some of your own topics as borderline spam, despite being 'positive'), then we remove or lock it.

The rules here are simple. The people here are diverse, and that's what brings interesting discussion to this place. If we cracked down on everything everyone said that was remotely negative towards Axl, then it would be extremely boring posting here.

You make these threads every 3 days warchild, and they never have any impact. I told you what to do last time (send a PM to an admin or mod), and you still didn't listen. Please don't make these pointless topics in the future - send a PM.

Chris.

EDIT: Charlie, you should know by now that by asking to be a mod, you pretty much ensure that you won't be one in the future.

While a appreciate that its a hard job the rules are the rules high, no bashing of band members, moderators made that rule and it should be inforced but it appears mods are unwilling to in certain members cases.

Constuctive critisism is fine by me but bashing is not and it happens every day by persistent offenders.

Im happy to except the rules but just wanna know why certain members appear to be aloud to bash and break the rules that were set for the forum?, this also applies to ex members of the band, which get bashed in equall measure

Well,GOAB....... Kaneda is a personal friend of Madisons.....that is why he gets to do it..........

ask her! ask eric!

And HighVolt, I have Contacted Eric about some of the "events" I mentioned.......

You can't make all the people happy all the time, I realize this, but this forum could be a better place......

Feel Free to mention this thread to him.....

Some of these comments DO get to Management,and others...........

WARCHILD, Supporter and SUPER GOD!

CHARLIE FOR MODERATOR

EDIT: Charlie, you should know by now that by asking to be a mod, you pretty much ensure that you won't be one in the future.

yeah, but I have the will and the determination to do something about unpunished problems. And I'm actually willing to help out.

If its illegal to want to help out and try to make this forum a better place, then I guess I'm guilty as charged...

CHARLIE FOR MODERATOR................!!!!!! YOU GOT MY VOTE!

That's all I would like to see, this forum become a better place......some of these posts DO get seen by Management!

Thanx N.R.

WARCHILD

Exactly what the topic title say, you've seen other 80's bands try it, it never works. Sorry Axl, mainstream fame is over for you.

All I'm saying is it might have one week in the top 10 than it's over with. Most of the people who decide top 40 (teenagers) don't even know/care about Guns N' Roses.

I feel like such a nerd when I post topics.

WHY WHINE?

EDITED COPY OF POST BY ADMIN FROM A RESPECTED GNR FORUM.........

Yes, some of this whining needs to stop! You might get the impression this board is for people who fucking hate the band when you look at this section.

It's ridiculous. People act like nothing the band does is right. Whining about guitar players, Axl (as usual), setlists, show length, where they play, who's opening for the band, who's making guest appearances and how often, what they're wearing, what Axl didn't say in between songs etc etc.

WHY CAN'T OUR ADMINS & MODS ADOPT THIS ATTITUDE? WARCHILD

We do have that attitude Warchild - but we also allow people a degree of 'freedom of speech'. This topic, for example, has been discussed many a time, but isn't bashing - so it goes in the Dust N' Bones section.

People will whinge that we moderate too much, people will whinge that we don't moderate enough. You can't please everyone.

If the moderation is such a problem for you here, you know what to do.

Yes, contact Eric! I'm feeling like a pariah here........

Thanx for putting it in Dust n Bones!

WC

You´re right, and you´ve also said it several times but it seems that the rules here are not 100% respected, because if I remember correctly there is a rule that forbids bashing band members and it seems that some people here don´t want to understand it.

I visit other forums ( not GNR ) and the people there are more respectfull towards the artists they admire and they don´t bash them the way people do here.

AGREED NR ......IF you will notice everytime I mention this it gets "removed"......this forum is quickly

becoming a laughing stock among the others, and it doesn't have to be this way!

Am contacting Eric on this and several other matters..........!!

And, yeah people do look at this forum..........

W......signing out

This is from a Respected Admin of Another Forum......!!!

Why Can't This Forum Adopt This Attitude? It doesn't have to stay the way it is.....change is a good thing!

The Band does not enjoy all the whining that is going on in here..........and it is unecessary.....

Critique and constructive criticisim is one thing Moaning and Pissing is another......
