netcat Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 if Axl is a train wreck, then i don't watch him out of gloat or malevolence or sporting interest. i watch because somehow i hope there will be a happy ending.Axl is so offbeat and talanted that in my mind there's always a possibility of miracle or something.and there's also another aspect of that. like there's someone that you admired so much and he used to make you happy. but then he's changed, he is nothing like himself anymore, all he does is bring you down and irritates you. but at the same time you still care for him because you hope that somewhere deep down inside he's still that person you used to love 1
Russel Nash Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Also, Axl makes better tweets than Slash. I mean, let's be honest. Slash's tweets are basically spam. ha!.Great thread Manets.I like Slash as a solo artist, but i get bored pretty quickly.
D-GenerationX Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 What is there to "follow" really? Axl literally has gone entire years when we don't hear a peep from him. What are we "following"?

Estranged Reality Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I'll love Slash forever because of his work with GN'R, but because he's so active it's easier to push aside some of the promotional stuff he does. Because Axl is so quiet, when he shows up randomly (like Kimmel's appearance), it's a bigger deal.I don't think it's anything bad about Slash per se, if he had disappeared for years on end and only put out one album, people would probably feel the same way about him. People enjoy enigma. Plus, Axl has had a lot of, quite frankly, unfortunate disasters in recent times, and people enjoy watching the car crashes.

saber_ Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 I'm not the one quoting Axl jokes with "reported" written below them. Sorry for the off-topic.Yeah, you're the one who's hiding behind an alt account because you're either banned or ashamed. I admire your passion to make so many alt accounts though. Your agenda is very important to you. 2

DieselDaisy Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Mickey Mouse releases more cartoons than Axl releases albums though.(Someone had to say that!)
moreblack Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Definitely not the music. It's all the drama.
Apollo Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 So just to recap:Communicating with your fans - bad. Not communicating with your fans - good.Putting out albums - bad. Not releasing music - good.A musician playing with multiple artists - bad. An artist disappearing for years at a time - good.Answering a question/defending your position, not worshiping Axl - bad. Means you take things way too srsly, are a cupcake and a former member. Starting topics specifically to bash Slash and start fights - good (and certainly not taking the forum and axl-vs-slash thing way too srsly).Well played Brainsaber. You got a few people to take your bait in this topic. And srsly, you really showed a few posters how they take things way too srsly and how sensitive they get over GnR. Good job!!!!!!!!! The forum needs more topics that divide everybody and promote the axl-vs-slash fighting.

They'll get butthurt and cry to the mods about how we say Smash is a has been.W - you are such a great poster in the My World section.Why do you act like Brainsaber in the D&N section?People are just stating their opinions on a topic that was set-up specifically to get people riled up.When people bash Motley Crue and you defend them - are you being "butt hurt" and crying? No. You are just defending a band/musician that you care about.And calling Slash Smash is just stupid, really. What's the point of that other than to just try and get people riled up?I tried to send you a PM to chat about this but your box was full.I don't mean you any offense - just wondering why you are such a cool poster in other sections but you lower yourself down to this level in D&N?**********Figur - no, Axl fans are not pathetic.There are just a couple of them that enjoy bashing Slash in every topic. They like that it gets people irritated. They live for that feeling. The majority of Axl fans on this forum are really cool people and you can have great discussions with them. You just have to ignore the ones who are here to cupcake and just chat with the ones who are here to talk about GnR. Edited November 20, 2013 by Groghan
gunnari Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Both of them are boring right now...Axl rarely does his rants, not communicating in any way..Is that entertaining? Edited November 20, 2013 by gunnari
trqster Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Axl was entertaining both as an artist and for his expression of life as human being (ie rants). Nowadays he's still entertaining as a decadent rock star. Edited November 20, 2013 by trqster
saber_ Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 wow, axl fans really are pathetic.... said the guy who has created zillions of alt accounts. Kinda cowardly if you ask me. 1

Damn_Smooth Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 wow, axl fans really are pathetic.... said the guy who has created zillions of alt accounts. Kinda cowardly if you ask me. Ah, pay no mind to her. She just loves to whine and has nothing of any substance to say, just like every other blind Slash worshipper. She has 30 some posts and half of them are crying about the big bad Axl fans. She's not really worth anyone's attention anymore.
wfuckinga Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 And the other half are crying about Axl vs Slash posts in an Axl vs Slash thread 1
D-GenerationX Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 wow, axl fans really are pathetic. ... said the guy who has created zillions of alt accounts. Kinda cowardly if you ask me. he is a Slash fan We're all Slash fans, professor. He was the lead guitarist in the glory years of our favorite band of alltime. Axl is not going to give anyone a shout out for disowning Slash simply because he did.

He was the lead guitarist in the glory years of our favorite band of alltime.Axl is not going to give anyone a shout out for disowning Slash simply because he did.Not all of us are Slash fans. At least not the Slash that exists today. I am a huge fan of the Slash that existed until 1996 and would love to hear anything that hasn't been released from that time period, but anything since then can stay where it's at. And just because I can't stand the fact that he's doing so shitty compared to what I know he's capable of doesn't mean that Axl has anything to do with anything. If I didn't like CD, my opinion of Axl would be the same. Since 2011 it's quickly been heading in that direction. Axl just hasn't been disgusting me for as long.
