Now here’s a novel thought – maybe just maybe Meat has the intelligence to find the review topics all by himself and maybe just maybe this artist who I thought this community was built around feels that he has given his all, and could possibly just possibly take the “less than favourable reviews” If they weren’t couple with such descriptive language and assumptions or inferences as to what he has done, what he should know, what he may not do or what he may not know. Following on from that is it so unbelievable that knowing what has been said that he should not want to revisit to see if there had been any further developments? I know I would have.
At this moment in time, I personally have no intention whatsoever to repeat my own feelings on this subject.
We had imho a very privileged status; we had the artist we have combined for, coming here and posting his views on his own songs, providing information on upcoming concerts and publicity events. This wasn’t enough for some, this seemed to me to make the forum’s and open target for every little whine and whinge about what “x” didn’t like or what “z” thought was wrong etc etc etc (yawn).
I despite what others may think or believe have never said don’t post your views, I have always simply asked for consideration to the feelings of others.
The last bout of expressions of opinions for me did not do this, they antagonised Meat and they also hurt many other forum members, yet any objections raised were dismissed as challenges to freedom of expression.
We have a site developed and I thought dedicated to an artist, where once he would come and vote/rate his own songs which has become (again imo) a place where anyone can undermine the artist with their descriptive opinions and the artist himself along with fan’s who disagree are held in contempt.
I cannot believe that we have a thread asking if the artist the fanclub is dedicated to can be banned or given a warning. I feel a wonderful opportunity has been lost, squandered.
And quite frankly this comment has totally stunned me!

In the end, this forum is not "his", but "rather a private forum", where he seems to be a member, just like you, me and everyone else (moderators/admins excluded).
