You are arguing with your self right now, not me. My Comment wasn't ment as "a complaint" <(it was only percieved as such. My last "shit" got deleted not because of MY thread. My thread was up 2-3 days before getting deleted. It was deleted because simple minded minds couldn't stay mature with their replys. However, I am sure some will percieve this as a ram head too.

MickG said:

This was my original topic matter. And at this, some of you are all dawnning your purple capes and them silly tights again.

I don't go around crapping on all the prince threads. If you percieve I do you don't believe in freedom of speach. I was making my comments.

MickG said:

Thank you all for suporting my thread so well. Now back to the topic matter?

Dang silly purple caped, tight waring, masked "pooper heros".

Awww... C'mon Anx

MickG said:

no, it got deleted because of how you worded your topic--it's not just them, you're at fault as well. remember, it ain't what you say, but how. your initial post did rub a lotta people the wrong way due to the fact that it was rather flamesy, therefore people started getting angry at you. people didn't start calling you out on your thread just because, y'know.

He's the Master Baiter!

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

are you angry with me? If so why?

My post wasn't deleted for the wordage. SHIT < is it so scary?

I like all of you, and I just want to have a more serious looked into topic matter then what's prince waring today. Is this so wrong?

should this be, like, moved to site discussion?

should i just throw my hands up in the air and let this turn into the thunderdome free for all thread?

will batman and robin escape louie the lilac's purple gas chamber?

who put the bomp in the bomp-de-bomp-de-bomp?

MickG said:

not at all, i'm just telling you that your way of starting up topics ain't the smartest way to do so. you've been on this site for 6 months now, you should know how not to post certain topics and how not to run into situations where you could end up in the shit that you've been in as of late (that is, if you've been paying attention to how the board's run).


may as well have been.


not at all. you still should learn how to perhaps not start up a topic that you know full-well will become volatile in the end.

I can't disgree with you more. My topics very often get many "hits" and isn't that was making a topic is about? Are you the same person sitting behind the same computer? Sounds like it to me.

Don't make posts that are inflammatory just to get people riled up. Don't post useless off-topic stuff. Even if a silly, no-purpose post seems harmless and fun, don't be surprised if you get a warning and the message locked/deleted. You might think it's cute, but Moderators who have to wade through tons of posts like this, don't.

my good friend Stinkyweaselteats used to get his threads locked all the time

MickG said:

no--starting a topic is just the act of bringing something to the table to talk about. people aren't usually in it to accumulate several "hits". it's not a contest, man.

yep, still me.

i remember stinky...i kinna miss 'im. and yes mick, that rule psyko put up is what we're talking about here. your thread ended up being deemed as inflammatory, therefore it got axed by the mods.

Anxiety said:

does that weird hand-arm-chop-thing david did in that video

psykosoul said:

If I make a post called "Prince is a piece of dog shit"that is inflammatory.

I wouldn't do that.

However if I make a post called:

"Prince is like a happy little bunny" that can, and would, still be seen as inflammatory by others looking to Dawn their purple capes, put on their heros mask and Save their Savior, to be Prince's hero.

They might need me to be an Evil Villan, and they are making me into one in their mind so they can "save the day" for prince.

I don't choose my words to inflame others. I choose my words as all good journalists do to have an impact while sticking to a point.

I can't be held responcable for what OTHERS choose to PERCIEVE my words as.

AGAIN: if You want to be Prince's HERO <<(maybe it is time you go have your head checked)))

MickG said:

you don't have to be that explicit in your title in order to have your thread deleted...wordage, mick, wordage. that, and the way you respond to others who may come on your threads and react. i've seen some of your reactions to those who come up and say they think you're being baitsy, and they're not very wise ones. trust me.


i can see your time here's gonna be rather fleeting, if you think in that manner. [monotone]the mods aren't out to get you. they've got more important things to do with their time than make your stay here miserable.[/monotone]


maybe so, but you still have the tendency sometimes to not have your choice of words totally straight and well-thought out.

MickG said:

Mick, you're missing the entire point... despite the fact that.. you're a .... newbie... <- yeah, I'll go along with that

You've had ample time to know that time, place and manner is very important around these parts. Whether your initial post had profanity in it or not, it's not really a topic that's open for discussion (i.e. a topic in which anyone/everyone can take a positive or negative stance for).

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the gist of your initial post says, "If like Prince fine: But if you feel the need to defend Prince when you take something personal that's said about him, then you must be a lunatic."

I know what you're trying to say, but these are alternatives to say that without sounding like you're attempting to start shit. Would you like for me to give you some examples?

In the end, your posts are becoming predictable and you appear to suffer from a severe case of Battered Prince Fan Syndrome as a result. If Prince, his music and his practices ain't your cup o'tea, that's fine and dandy. But if all you have to offer as discussion is bait to get the folks riled up whether they be casual fans or sheep, then you appear to be the one who needs his head checked.

...and yep, there indeed are ways you can present what you're tryin to say without coming across as a master baiter (heh). and no, your message won't get softened or wussified if you do so.

MickG, you are the consummate exacerbater. How many mods will it take for you to believe that maybe your posts are not appropriate?

it took only one--mick got banninated yesterday i guess. see...you try to warn a cat and see what happens...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Yep

This'll make him learn, it usually takes a banning or two to make posters realise that..... it's only a website. Ease up Mick, you can still have fun without driving things to their ultimate edge.

This thread died for your sins, people.

Remember that.
