I think a lot of MJ stans that come here and flood the forum with MJ threads get a kick out of doing so because this is a Prince site. Prince and MJ were considered rivals, so every now and then they will throw out how supposedly MJ is more popular than Prince is on Prince's on site or how he gets more threads here than Prince. Oh, and let's not forget the random mentions about how many albums he has sold. They are sick. 
Even my 15 year daughter questions what is up with MJ stans and their childishness. And to have grown ass folks cuttin' up and actin' a fool over a singer is beyond my comprehension. [Edited 12/26/08 5:54am] It's just ONE FAN. Not a bunch of fans making stupid ass threads. It's just one moron doing this I mean, come on! look at the name of the thread starter. It's basically been the same person. "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." |

I sent an orgnote but I haven't gotten a response. I'm gonna pretty much stay away from there until something is done. The funny thing about this is monk76 has basically been banned from other MJ forums. Alot of fans hate him PP4, I still want that Sugarbabes album!

These orgers have been banned from MJ forums so they troll here. Believe me, if you go on MJ forums, whenever you see a Prince thread, it's like 2 or 3 big ones and they're mostly positive so these fans DEFINITELY have an agenda I'm telling ya'll, make me a mod for like 48 hours and I'll fix this shit REEEEAL quick "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them.

has monk76 really been banned from some of the MJ forums? I guess he even annoys the hardcore MJ fans too,lol. | |

I understand that people are interested in Michael Jackson. But why can't there be just one thread where everything related to him is discussed?
I'm a member of a Madonna forum and in the other music section, there's one thread for Christina Aguilera, Britney, Janet, Kylie and other artists in which there is a lot of interest. Everything about them is put in that one thread. The moderators of that forum have the ability if anyone starts a new thread about any of those artists to merge that into the thread that already exists. Do the moderators here not have the technical capacity to do that? [Edited 12/26/08 14:49pm] | |

I would also like to say that some of the pointless threads that are being posted in Non Prince aren't usually posted on Mj forums....except for like MJJC KOP Discussion has some but the mods don't really play that shit "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." |

All them people posting here are just lame-ass wannabe fans that cannot afford their own freaking site. I'll offer to pay the few Euro to register the domain - if they promise to fuck off and start 200 threads there instead. I love almost all types of music but I have little time for M.J, his sister or Madonna. (I know that this is a Prince website but the '80s are over people!) So I don't bother to look at the Music: Non-Prince forum here. | |

So I don't bother to look at the Music: Non-Prince forum here. Michael Jackson hasn't released anything recently, but both Janet and Madonna released albums and toured this year and have had tons of success in the 90's and beyond. So if people want to talk about them, it hardly means they are stuck in the 80's. So I don't get the 80's are over comment. | |

Well, the poster in question has been banned.
I hope everyone that reported threads and posts had their concerns addressed. Now it is up to us to police ourselves and the forum. Please take the time to look for relevant threads and post on them when possible and keep posting the diverse tracks and artists. It keeps the forum fresh and may open some orgers up to new music! Thank you to the mods that handled the problem and helped clean up the forum. Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it. |

moderatorTimmy84 said: EmbattledWarrior said: actually the older fans are pretty level headed... its the younger fans that are Coo Coo for coco Puffs I'm like only 24 but it's like man, how many Michael threads can you run in this motherfucka? Like "enough already!"
Anyone over than 21 should stop acting a fool when it comes to posting threads of the same artist every day or every other day. I mean you know how big of a Marvin fan I am but I don't post threads about Marvin all the time that I feel like it and I random do even that! And when I did I was warned so and stopped doing it, lol.
HELL! I've only posted like two or three MJ threads since joining this motherfucka.
[Edited 12/25/08 23:27pm] Unfortunately Marvin is dead and not as (in)famous as Michael. that's why noone's discussing Marvin Gaye. Most of the MJ discussions are about his personal life, or switch sooner or later into his personal life/looks. But Marvin was never accused of molesting boys nor did he have plastic surgery. He had an intersting life (depressions, etc you name it) of course, but his life is also less well documented, no? | |

There r too many beyonce threads too even britney it gets so annoying |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
This comes up repeatedly (I've started a thread on the topic myself as well) and the mods refuse to enforce the rules of the forum ("Go easy on the multiple same-topic/artist threads"). So every now and then it's a big, big annoyance. It's to the point where I don't even enjoy discussing his music here (and I'm a big fan).

japanrocks said: because too many people want to hold on to the past MJ.....and are too old to listen and explore new music so they just post threads about MJ, Janet, Britney, Beyonce and any other non-talented performer they can
Yep. Some people are resistant to the idea of growing up and just letting the past be the past. MJ was great, but you can only watch the same videos and hear the same songs so many times before it gets boring. It wouldn't be so bad if these people weren't still kidding themselves he still has a viable career when it's clear he's not committed anymore. And yes, his hardcore fans are all somewhat deranged. If the point is made often, it's only because it's true.

... [Edited 12/29/08 6:52am] Man I thought I was the only one in this position. The oversaturation of MJ threads will NEVER change until the mods do something and I personally don't think they will do a damn thing because this has been happening for so long. I remember complaining about all the excessive MJ threads going back to like 2003. I'm a fan of MJ and these MJ fans make me want to have nothing to do with MJ. Most of them are disgusting cause they force there shit on you. It's not fair and the mods MUST do something about this. It's past the breaking point, for real 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 won't lie, I wish some of the MJ fans would listen and comment on the new Prince songs that came out a couple of weeks ago. I want to hear their perspective, whether it's positive or negative but it might have made them even more freaked out that Prince came out with new music and MJ hasn't. Whether you like Prince's new music or not, the fact that he's still doing music is wonderful. It's sad that MJ isn't doing the same thing and giving his fans what they want and need. Plus like you said PurpleCharm, many of the MJ fans on this site aren't Prince fans, so why the hell are they on a Prince site in the first place? That's fucking weird man. I couldn't go on some other music site for Janet, Madonna or MJ and force Prince down people's throats. It's terrible and it's wrong. 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 | |

So you stumbled upon a MJ thread via Google that linked to prince.org and then decided that it was acceptable to inundate the non Prince forum with MJ/Jackson threads? An ocassional thread here and there is cool. But seriously, I would think that MJ would have tons of fan forums, entire communities dedicated to all things MJ, so why overrun a site that is not even dedicated to him? | |
