mdiver said:

No waiting because I remember you from a bit ago--you pop up every now and then. Just like someones extra screen name would. Hey!

rdhull said:

I have been working abroard since the end of Oct and did not have un-checked internet access. IE Personal site gets U the sack.
But I am back in the UK now so all is well

Damn, RD... we joined the org on the same day!

IceNine said:

I think many of us did that same day ..it was the first day of V.2 and everybody ran to register. Influx of the Prince-fux!

IceNine said:

How long were U around B4 U joined the Org tho dude?
Were U part of the old Org? Or had U simply lurked 4 years and then decided 2 join when the Org was revamped?

SexLovely said:

I was on AMP for a long time and was one of those "trader" guys... I never interacted on the "old org" at all... I looked at whatever news came up and went on my merry way.

I did, however, see "I like pizza" and shit like that a lot... it was odd.

IceNine said:

Cool. God I feel stupid when I say this but I still dont actually know what the AMP is...

"trader" guys? Aint gotta clue whatcha saying 2 me there.

How long were U at the AMP or wherever then? Practically the first web site I went 2 when I joined the internet at the begining of 1999 was the Org...

Yes. they are all dupes!!!

SexLovely said:

Quick definitions:

AMP = alt.music.prince, a newsgroup where flaming is not only allowed, it is encouraged.

"trader" guy = a guy who traded a WHOLE lot of Prince bootlegs... just ask RD!

I was on AMP for a couple of years... it was fun sometimes and I built up a hell of a huge Prince collection.

SexLovely said:

I was on and contributed the one off news items ( Billy Duffy calls Prince an underrated getarist...writer Howard Bloom says about Prince...etc) etc and would post semi intermittently but below the radar I guess. AMP was my home in which I made like a few posts there

IceNine said:

I see.

So the AMP is totally inhabited by ass-bastads then? (thinks of a whole load of ppl here he'd like 2 see sent there permanently)

Ah so yr a theiving musical crook then huh? That mean Prince can take U 2 court??
I would so love it if he sued yr ass...I'd be on his side naturally.

My Prince collection is pretty crappy.
I aint got 1 single boot in my house...it stinks.

MrBliss said:

We didn't trust you the first time 'round.

SexLovely said:

Yes, AMP is filled with assholes... total assholes... I don't go there anymore, as the assholes were not even clever assholes. I could enjoy a good flamewar with a clever asshole, but they are not numerous enough.

Bootlegs were fun to trade for a while... but now I say... FUCK PRINCE.

Maybe you should clean your house if it stinks, man... jeez. :LOL:

Ice got my collection really started with his generous trade. Then he disappeared ( guess he located to Org or never posted).

Would see his name every now and then and perk up thanking him..I emailed him or IM-ed once and he told me yeah eh still trades but I was so damn deep and addicted by the time I couldn't keep track of who or what I was doing plus I thought he thought of me as a weirdo and prolly still does who know lol

I came here full fledged in spring-time early summer ( as I stated ina org tribute post). This is th e place where I should have been born into. I was adopted to the wrong family and raised by a toothless bearded hag and schooled with a strap right across my back..turned me into the freak and JJFlash

The Org was what I was when I foirst wasa net baby but I wasnt fully aware of it. By th e time I was awarwe of it I had been schooled and raised for 4 plus years on amp in which I had beconme this..this thing.

Fast forward to last year, I opened the right box and the org came alive and it was everything I was when I was fresh and new and innocent. It took a while to shed the othe r family influence but I did and when it happened I felt it

So in essence I have lurked, posted under the radar, and finally stepped to my prince family that was my real spirit in reality. So I am like the grown brother who comes home after finding out who his real parents are after everyone is grown. It wasn't and still isn't easy with no org history, coming to Thanksgiving or Xmas dinner at a table where everyone knows everybody and grew up together.. Im like a man without a country,a home etc. So I made the best of what I could with what I have so to speak.

But why lie under a different name?

Although I'm safe, perhaps it should be changed to the amount of posts... say, "Don't Trust Anyone Under 1000 Posts"... that's more reachable, and the Orger becomes more known, hence, more trustworthy.

Time is something we can't control...

...or not.
