There are a lot of companies who exist using similar abbreviations, so the fact that NPG exist is not the issue. NPG Magazine is challenging whether or not NPG Music Club selling books would be an issue. This happens all the time in the business world. We'll just have to wait and see what the outcome is. | |

I'm with you. I hope this gets resolved really quick, I'm eagerly awaiting the next tour or show, whether its Prince or Prince featuring Tamar or vice versa. [Edited 7/14/06 17:43pm] | |

Synergy said: I am wondering, if "we" as the members of The "NPG" can throw some salt into Nature's game, in the 4m of a class action suit, if 4 nothing else, 2 tie their hands up as they have tied Prince's hands.
They have, by their lawsuit, infringed upon r memberships, causing undo stress 2 many members, loss of friendships, loss of access 2 music and merchandise and perks that as NPG members, we are entitled too. I am serious, I don't expect it 2 go anywhere, but nothing will choke a lawsuit like another lawsuit? Get me... Prince/ has been calling fam NPG since the early 90's - we can claim that as a "community" HM is causing harm.
So, is this possible? Or am I just evil? Oh and U're welcome on thanks 4 my research... Cool[/color][/b] I think that is a great idea....who is with us? stand up & be counted, lets do the work. | |

I realize I'm very late coming in on this, but Whisky-Tango-Foxtrot, Over? I can't possibly be the only one to NOT receive official notification that the NPG music club was shutting down? I found out about it from the LoveSexyDC weekly update. So it appears that this is all about trademark issues? Very complicated and very expensive and, as someone else stated, a definite karma-boomerang for Prince. I guess now he'll have a better understanding of what it's like to have the shoe on the other foot. Pity to have to learn that lesson so intensely. | |

I certainly hope that those members who thought they could get to Heaven by putting other people through Hell, who singlehandedly crushed many peoples ability to even handle it ( like myself ), almost forcing us to become like them if we wanted to stay, and making many many people ( inlcuding myself ) NOT think very highly of Prince.....
fully comprehend and appreciate karmic law. those of us who protested were kicked out by mods who gladly took another 25 dollars each time we came back cuz we just wanted to be there. i am very grateful for everything i learned at that club, but it wasnt thanks to how well people treated me, it was thanks to how badly they treated me, and interfered in probably the most significant moment of my life. i was prayed upon in the chatroom by mods and other pp workers who were jealous and suspicious of me from the get go, trynna wrap their little parasitic cyber-claws around me and test me and poke me and prod me. i'm thankful now i know how to handle such sorry ignorance and i truly hope they find a better way of respectin a man the way he shoulda always been respected, instead of trynna deliberately make other people hate him, so they never get close to him and they can keep him all to themselves. such childishness. despicable and forgivable..but their behaviour must change. upgrade away and all the best with it. i like it here at the org and wont be returning to the club if it is run by any of the same people. ![]() " the embassy shut to keep the fools out " - as above, so below. | |

Priana, I have to say you are probably the most deeply insecure, cruel, vindictive, shallow, hateful bully I have ever had the displeasure of knowing. Sadly you managed to infect me with your illness and toxified my life for 3 years. Your words to me and treatment of me made me literally vomit on 3 different occasions. On the other hand, knowing you, taught me all about who I'm not. Popularity is not the same as Friendship never was never will be. And one day I hope you realise this for your own sake, so that you might find some inner peace. Thank you kindly for such harsh lessons in self-respect. I wish you Heaven and hope one day you will open your heart and mind up enough to actually find it. Hope you enjoyed meeting Prince, but you got pawned. So sad the games people play, and frightful to think they still playin em despite how much pain they cause. Wishin you all the best. ![]() " the embassy shut to keep the fools out " - as above, so below. | |

I'm glad it's shut down. Now maybe I can get close up seats for the next tour instead of having to look at those damn club members up front. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Synergy said: NPGMC was shut down the day that an opposition 2 it's trademark was filed. The opposing company HM Publishing filed trademark 4 everything under the sun... AFTER NPGMC and NPG records filed 4 trademark twice. It hasn't been said, but the club shut down the day the opposition was filed.
[Link http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/...=OPP&eno=1 - luv4u] Hi Synergy, How are you? It's been a long time, since we've talked. I am so angry at this lawsuit against Prince. It's not fair on him, for what they are doing to him. In turn, it has caused us members to suffer, from the shut down of the site. I hope Prince will be able to build a new website, so we all can come together as a NPG family. Well, I have to get back to work. Take Care Synergy and it was good talking to you again. | |

Where have u been ? U and I totally agree. Tha reason I started feelin discouraged with Prince in tha chat room, becoz these people were not honoring tha agreement we made with Prince, the Agreement of unity, love & respect, and I thought he didnt care that they were disrespecting his club and us like that becoz it went on 4 so long, but I guess his way of handling it was totally surprize 2 them.If there is another club i suggest that He makes his Presence known when he's there, so we can get what we(I -4 -1) joined for, 2 hear tha truth about what i want 2 know about Prince from tha mouth(or tha mind ) of Prince himself.Or even 2 hold a conversation with Prince, and 4 this reason, he wouldnt need 2 disguise himself, he can just b himself. may meekness, and peace follow u where ever u may go... | |

Terilicious said: grandebelle said: AFFORD to screw around & make his site look like crap. I'm sorry to see it close but he'll come up with another great idea as he finally realized what was taking place. I'm HAPPY he didnt let it go on. THIS is and was my CONCERN all along. Prince needs 2 keep up the classy image he already has EVERYWHERE. That chatroom was horrendous! I hope he has another chat but that its EXPENSIVE, and well MONITORED ( i can help ) and that spirituality and his music is again the main focus with no vulgarity and negativity allowed. I, myself was getting negative with certain people because they were so nasty, AND the subject matters were infantile 2 say the least!!! I am not a negative person and they forced me to be. Now, there were about a handful of members who were a joy 2 speak with. They slowly left as I did! I wont mention names as then I'd need 2 mention the trouble makers. This is not important. Can I ask why you assume that the people who were those negative forces that you talked about were poor or unable to afford a higher membership price?

There was some negativity but I didn't pick up that "thug-vampire-mind control" vibe you were going on about. You seem pretty tightly wound. Perhaps you should relax a bit. Well actually Prince himself (or someone with the authority 2 speak on Prince's behalf) made that assumption, when they blamed tha sickness that was going on in tha club with tha fact that it "only" cost 25.00!! Meaning, any type or class of people can come up with 25.00, so that's tha reason why it's this way,i mean hell,I know a little rocket science. may meekness, and peace follow u where ever u may go... | |

I never experienced it...or maybe I did and just didn't know it. I never pretended to be Prince, that's just stupid. My guess is somebody musta fooled you into believing that they were P and played with your head pretty good. That sucks. Like I said, I wasn't there long but I did meet some very sweet people. Sorry your experience sucked. You really should take my advice though and chill. Stress is bad on the body and soul. I AM BEATLOAF

Spelling edit [Edited 7/22/06 20:21pm] I was letting u know that Grandebelle wasnt tha only one that assumed tha negativity was due to people from a "lower class" which is generally associated with being poor, NPGMC felt that way as well, which is tha reason why Prince asked 4 100.00$ 2 join his club in tha first place, I didnt get it then, but trust me,I get it now. I think it was generous and kind of Him 2 at least try tha 25.00 expirence, 2 see if his assumptions was correct about tha type of people a lower price would attract. And yess!! he is worth it and more, asking for little more only attracts people that dont respect him or anything. If u pay really good for something, u will think twice b4 u tear it up, my grand mother been told me that! may meekness, and peace follow u where ever u may go... | |
