Original Gunner Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 That's interesting - a biased mod... maybe i need to complain about your blatant disregard of the warning privacy system here to the big kahuna huh.And although it's funny that you compare me to Axl - i should point out that i'm not a legendary millionaire rockstar who should be above all the criticism he gets from kids on the net. But thanks for the comparison all the same. It's not about being biased. It's about having common sense. You don't need to post every little thing that springs into your mind. Axl doesn't seem to take all comments that personally... seemingly you do! Does that make him a better guy? Yes.No Jock it's about telling it like it is, see. I'm not here to keep you and your fellow G'n'R newbies happy by agreeing with your absurd assumptions about a band you never even knew about ten years ago. You above all should know that it's either Rangers or Celtic buddy - there is no middle ground. And i think you'll find i don't have a criminal record, a restraining order against any ex's, have not spent any time in jail or been caught with a gun in my luggage to name but a few Axl misdemeanours. I also haven't bailed on any commitments leaving thousands of people pissed off and out of pocket on numerous occasions. Does that make me a better guy than Axl? I think so.

evil_l Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Shouldn't a self-assured musical legend like Axl be above all this, stop holding grudges and just let his music do the talking?The problem - as I see it. Is tha Axl is far from self-assured and dissing people is the only way he knows to respond to critisism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madison Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 It's been brought to my attention that W.Axl Rose really seems to know about and respond to a lot of criticism that comes his way from the fans/media/internet and takes it very personally. I mean he dissed the NME live from stage during the last UK performances for writing shit about him, he has refused to give MTV and various other media outlets interviews in the past over negative comments and has even spoken out about two kids called Renato and Xozi posting shit on another Guns internet forum that he didn't approve of. Shouldn't a self-assured musical legend like Axl be above all this, stop holding grudges and just let his music do the talking?DISCUSS rock1I haven't seen Axl complain much at all. He's been quite silent about commenting about anything in the press for much of the past decade.The question is funny coming from you though - a guy who - in his short time here - has sent numerous complaints to the mods whining and crying about how people are abusing you for your 'cupcake-like" posts.That's interesting - a biased mod... maybe i need to complain about your blatant disregard of the warning privacy system here to the big kahuna huh.And although it's funny that you compare me to Axl - i should point out that i'm not a legendary millionaire rockstar who should be above all the criticism he gets from kids on the net.

How does acting like a cupcake on a fan forum - and spamming mods with complaints about how you're abused for your Axl-bashing posts - have anything to do with Axl?

Well that's ok, you'll grow outta that in time. And who are you to accuse me of having a tiny mind? You have no idea what i have achieved in my life, and that's fine too b/c it's not about me but why get personal? It's about Axl and G'N'R - i give credit where it's due and criticism when it's not. That's what democracy and open debate is all about, right? If you only want Axl ass kissers in the forum then make it invite only. My posts and topics have so far been proven to be entertaining, fun and well read, received and commented on.

Axl saw this guy taking pictures for an hour and 1/2. He finally decided to get pissed off. He gave the security about 5 seconds to take care of it, and he jumped into the crowd. A minute or so later, he slapped a security guard on the ear. Then he took off, riot followed soon after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I never liked Guns N' Roses 10 years ago does that make me any less of a fan? No. How can I help that when I'm 7 years old. No middle ground between Rangers and Celtic? I disagree they are called Dunfermline.You list the things Axl has done in the past. He does these because he is fly and cool enough to get away with them. Sadly you are not.

It was that and a number of other events that led to Axl jumping off the stage, then leaving. That camera was more of the 'straw that broke the camel's back' if you follow.

Well, to bad Axl didn't come on stage until after 9:00. Yes the security was 'lame', they let people in with all kinds of stuff. It was 90 degrees at 9:00 that night(typical heat and humidity for the midwest). Hot as hell. I don't know how people were able to bring in bottles, probably in their girlfriends purse. Silver lining for Riverport(now UMB Bank Pavillion), you get everything short of an anal probe before entering the venue. I saw Motley Crue in August 2005. You get searched,patted down etc. Fortunately for me, I was patted down by a chic, which felt pretty good. Edited March 16, 2006 by JONEZY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
