i have been a tad harsh ..........

ok. I can admit when im wrong.....i felt kind of bad today. I went over to Lotus whilst listening to all 3 WAVS i downloaded. Man i still love the albums-still not skipping a track-or disc-outta 3-man thats great. So-I scan the threads i have posted in here lately-and man have i been negative.....Now-I sill have my own issues with the site-but I guess-if i really do support Prince-as I have since 1984-attending every uk tour since 1988-one thing i am not and dont wanna be is a hater.....or to mabey encourage folk NOT to join up. Thats their decision-alot of folk love the site. Im happy for them. In fact-as i was saying-the albums are great-and really-though Im sooooo gutted there obviously is not gonna be a tour/residency-the music is brill-and the music is what im here for. Not sniping n stuff-so i apologise-reading it all back-i kinda bored myself.....I guess i got a bit caught up in the fact-I expected something diffrent to what i got-but on reflection-3 superb albums-6 or 7 brand new vids never seen-i actually have always liked the graphics-and when it arrives-a tee shirt. He does still have three quarters of the year to do more. I have to mabey have a little faith in that more. With sooooo much class material over the years-it is easy to get a bit greedy and complacent-so my ills with the site are gonna be that-mine-you can make your own mind up on it.....

That was beautiful. Honest and heart felt. I love the honesty.

peace

I feel the same way.

I still would like to see P represented by a lot better of a website. I'd like to see LF/Prince do well. Create a bigger, better site. We will see. Someone as good as P deserves the best website ever. Not a site created with a template!

We never know...and thats why we hang in. Just never know when P will decide to drop an album. He could have something uploaded at anytime..we don't know.

Truth....if he never releases anything else..P has given us above and beyond over the years.

you should also learn to admit when you type hard to read messages

the way you typed was hard to read

now that i have read it, hey.....congrats on becoming more positive

but you have every right to be negative because it is a weird f-ing website and P is one strange cat.....he knows that and does not really care

keep in mind that if the orgers were 100% positive it would be a really boring place

I aggree sort of-BUT-i genuinely think for me-it's better to not 'vent' so publicly-possibly influencing others when the 'problems' are mine-I thought it'd be something like NPGMC-they never actually said it would be anything of the sort-and as i said-as long as the music's good-i am too-lol-I HAVE TO BLOODY SAY THIS THOUGH-LAST MOAN-man im sooooo gutted that there doesn't seem to be anything of a live nature on the cards-man if only he'd have released this set in 2007 just before the o2 shows-this stuff in the Indigo.....man how frweaking good would that've been-not that it wasn't great anyway-but to see and hear Dreamer, wall of Berlin in a small venue... cool

I am so with you 100% with what you just said. I haven't been on Lotusflow3r.com in months and I am disappointed in the lack of content on there but I still have some hope that Prince will put more content on there. Time will tell what will happen with the rest of 2009 and the Lotusflow3r site.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I believe that the complaint is that your post would be easier to read if you had paragraphs. smile

The main thing you could do to improve the readability of your posts, would be to add spaces around your excessive use of -'s. Or just use them appropriately.

ok. I can take a hint. With all the shit going on at the moment or rather NOT going on, the most important thing here is spelling and grammar ? Cool. Sorry for wasting your fucking time

The joint memorial service for Punctuation, Grammar and Syntax will be held tomorrow morning at 10:00 at the Elements of Style Chapel at the corner of Strunk & White.

In lieu of flowers, the Punctuation, Grammar and Syntax families request that you make financial contributions to the English department of the public high school closest to your residence as quickly as possible.

LOL...I blame texting...mind you, Prince was 'txting' before it was invented wasn't he....I do agree though, I don't care too much if people don't use 'proper grammer' - but when it becomes hard to read, well that is a problem...

this just proves it though...a Prince site - and we're stooping to hassling people about their typing skills.... just shows you how bad LF.com sucks....

yet another wasted opportunity from Prince...I actually thought after having a year or so off he was gonna put some effort into this....wrong again....shame really cos after such a long wait we were all amped and ready to play, hell even spend $, in the 'new universe' of his.....I haven't been there for months and when I did 'frequent' the site - it was an absolute nightmare to use....

after all this time I thought they might have been able to create a site that actually worked....embarrassing really....

still, I imagine Prince has been paid and he's moved on..... so have I, if the site gets updated cool, if not, well whatever - he just won't get my $ so easily next time...

LOL-i can't be arsed with folk that think their so clever they feel a right to jump on in and 'correct' people. So now the boring shit is out the way.....

I actually got a reply from Lotus-I'd asked what is happening and said I was unhappy. They said that made them sad.....Oh and they have 'updated' with a video. The Undertaker.....

How many weeks ago was that? Indeed-It took them nearly a week to reply.

STILL no mention of anything remotely new or intaresting coming....

Man I think I'm getting tired of a 'forced' positive attitude towards this. I don't wanna poo-poo things but seriously, its getting a little insulting.

They're sad I'm sad.....at least they didn't have to pay $77 to feel this freaking sad eek
