You need a psychological evaluation because I'm with her, you'r post is hysterical

Prince put himself out to the public eye and got everyone to go along with his elaborate digital interactive media extravaganza scheme. He deserves every bit of criticism he gets,everytime a spotlight is focused on his presence. Even if it's harsh,unfair and blunt in tone. When he comes back into the public limelight he better have something to offer. If he doesn't, the bills stack up and all he is left is Walls surrounding him and a crumbling pseudo palace in Minnesota. Not to mention deluded fans who can't honestly have any rational discourse with others when it comes to situations like this.

I'm laughing at some of the defensive responses. Some on this forum would go lockstep into a tank of Hammerhead sharks with fish belt tied around your waist. With Prince laughing and ridiculing you,kicking you into the tank. "OMGZ Prince touched me!! I have a heel imprint in the spine of my back!" And while you are being mauled & rammed to death, you would probably be screaming in maniacal agony, "UGGGGHHHH!! This Proves Prince is a genius. A tank of hammerhead sharks ughhhh! ::Shark rams new power zombie again:: How Brilliant!! This is art and Im so honored to be a part of this!"

Now if you are angry at that statement, it's obvious why.

I don't know enough about you to make a judgment either way but suffice to say I don't give a fuck if you like me or not.

I don't think anyone has summed up the blind Prince fan any better than this. Thank you.

Of course, this type of person also makes for a wonderful suicide bomber. It's worrying really isn't it.

That is plainly obvious to everyone..

Good. I don't want anyone thinking I give a fuck.

...yet when you say you don't care, you're made out to be "the evil one"

Gotta love the org

It's not isolated to the Org.

You know that many real world principles cannot be applied, and mostly don't apply, to the internet. Surely me posting in bold isn't the worst offense at this website. Sorry if it isn't up to your standards.

They're usually the one's who spout Prince's lyrics back at you like they're from some sort of rule book. Scary stuff.

I wonder if any of the blind sheep have actually ever met Prince? Have they ever actually shook his hand or stood arm in arm. I have been arm to arm with some heavy weight celebs, and it does one good. No matter how famous or they are, it's still just another person with tons of flaws.

I was a member of NPG club and LotusFlow3r and eye will 4ever be a fan! Although, I must admit, I'm disappointed that yet another website is gone and that there was not more going on. There were some positives about LotusFlow3r, that they emailed you when something new was out there, but it was way too far and few in between. I was really hoping for more insider music, ticket offers, etc. Sad days !

4 ever fans are never sad.

Because we appreciate what Prince has given us. We don't bitch and moan all the time & criticize what he puts out what he wears, who he is dating. who he decides to produce an album for...etc...I don't blame Prince for shutting things down and abandoning things. Because U never appreciate it. BUT I DO I WILL 4EVER SUPPORT PRINCE

I like SupaFunky and Vendetta but prefer Squirrel. What's this thread about again?

Sometimes I think Prince pulls stunts, just so he can watch another entertaining bitchfest between fams and fans on the org.

But it's all pretty simple and clear. Prince pulled the plug shortly after the launch and failed to provide the site with content. Clay didn't mention a word about this to the members untill the year was over, when he should have and only after he fucked up with the auto renewal.

IOW They are both to blame. The end.

100% agree !
Prince gets the blame for the lack of material.

Now the X or unknown is glaring here as something unusual even for Prince standards of crazy.

How much was Prince going to offer?
What were the timeframes?
Was the material going to be protected from being stolen?

It's easy to say that Prince fucked it up or Clay dropped the ball but there is much more that we don't know that is going on here.

"After the hyped launch of LotusFlow3r.com, Prince became an absentee landlord, Clay said. “We only got stuff in dribs and drabs.” Clay declined to say how many paying members the site did attract, but he speculated that the number was a disappointment to Prince. "

Fact is, if Prince was disappointed in the members, it's exactly because of fans like me who didn't join because we've been burned before and didn't want to be dinged for $77 bucks and a shotty website.
We can talk about this till we're blue in the face but facts are facts, there's no reason prince can't give us new (or at least new to us) music in a subscription basis.. there's plenty of it.
Start a new site, promise me 1 soundboard quality recording of a live show a week, every week. Charge me anything, I'd pay it.
