DurhamGirl Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I may be a tad naive but I dont understand the awful name calling, especially Axl, on other areas of the web. It can be so nasty which does not seem right knowing Axl has mental health problems, would one make fun of somebody down the street with similar issues. Axl has probably hurt himself more than anyone else and will be suffering the consequences. So anybody understand this attitude? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamillos Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I understand that when A calls B an asshole, B doesn’t need to be concerned with anything or let alone feel bad, because A – through projection on B – is subconsciously talking about itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lame ass security Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Have you ever read what Axl has called people through the years on the internet? One instance was particularly appalling. All I can say is, if you can dish it you better be able to take it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gordon Comstock Posted February 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2021 What the fuck do you know? That's right! You don't know jack fucking shit you fucking ignorant, know it all, fucking deluded, misguided, self important, self righteous, pious, small minded, clueless, loud mouthed, arrogant cunt. No one needs your opinions n' having to deal with your constant abuse of privileges or the miniscule amount of power you've had here you wield like an angry, lesbian, wannabe, high school parking lot rent-a-cop always mouthing off like you're some kind of authority which you're far from. I have to say it saddens me you continue to babble your horseshit to unsuspecting fans n' any names n' numbers you have are of people like you who try n' hurt others to promote themselves at their expense. That's the only real thing you got bitch. It's like Revolver's if not edited, cloudy recollection of events as I've never asked for anyone's shirt bein' thrown out of anywhere let alone say I did but hey he won a contest so he must be credible, whatever, no good deed goes unpunished. I don't work for you or have to do a goddamn thing you think ever. Your opinions of anything whatsoever don't count or mean jack shit to me or anyone in this camp. You're garbage, plain and simple. You're not a fan or a voice of reason... you're a sick n' diseased mind spilling it's bile over the internet. Well now you can drink up the rewards of the crap that's been spillin' out of your pie hole forever here n' enjoy the fermented, feted n' vulgar response you've been cultivating n' aching for... for so long . Find another board this one doesn't need you. Oh n' feel free to jump in all you wanna be web warriors, ho defenders n' bitch boi's, you ain't needed either. For the rest of you...

(at least to them) I think mostly it's just a type of humor that is not for everyone and some of it is the outcome of not getting too much from Gn'R. Some of them don't really care about Gn'R anymore so they find satisfaction in mocking not just Axl, but everything Gn'R and personally I think some of the nasty shit is hilarious. There is a lot to work with here. Others seem to still love the band, but they think the band is a joke so they laugh at it. don't worry about Axl. He wipes tears with 100$ bills. The great thing about the internet is that you can always not visit virtual places that you don't like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Rose Bar acoustic show was only 2 or 3 days after that rant... They played at least 2, maybe 3 surprise acoustic shows that week... that was truly the peak of nuGNR as a touring band IMO, from the Canadian shows to the acoustic NYC shows to the massive SA shows, they were on fire. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no secret that Axl and people in the GNR camp read the forums, and at the time this place was easily the biggest GNR forum, so I assume he basically meant "stop spreading bullshit on the most popular website about my band." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willl Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Personally I find the "GNFNR" forum to be laugh out loud hilarious at times, especially the Fat Axl thread I've never actually thought Axl was overweight, even when the media kinda ran with that angle after RIR3, but some of those face swapping gifs at GNFNR are ridiculously funny. Like Rovim said, Axl wipes his tears with $100 bills so I doubt he's losing any sleep over it and I hope that he just takes it as the trolly joke that it is For the record I also found the "MS Paint" thread at this forum hilarious so maybe I just have the sense of humor of a 6 year old lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
