ummmmm ok i just wanna add, I'm not sure if anyone is aware. the fans have no say weather HQ should close or not or else the fans would of been private messeged or something of the announcment of its departure. Now who is being childish here? It just closed period.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I see it is that there's a very simple reason as to why fans (and this includes AFAIK the mods too) had no say in how and when HQ closed. HQ wasn't our site. We contributed to it, sure, for better or worse. But ultimately anything on it wasn't our responsibility; and thus all the requests, demands etc etc coming out of the PPP weren't on our heads, wallets or time. A PM of warning might have been OK; but I'm not gonna lose any sleep over that; nor how or when Aaron chose to close it down: His forum. His life. His choice. For that reason I personally don't think it's fair to call someone childish for 'having had enough' especially when neither you or I can begin to imagine the stresses running a P Forum might bring with it, especially over the last few years.

you know and thats my point of why it closed its really alot bullshit
and i could care less if its closed down I'm with Aron on this one actually.
I'm reading through some of the comments and some people on here are saying they want HQ to come back. Well I got NEWS. There's nothing anyone can do or say to bring it back. It's not up to the fans weather it comes back. So move on.

It's not only the closing of HQ that was the issue, but alot of other issues between fans and the mods.

WHAT!! hahahaaaa

the mods had it bad?

What about the crap the fans had to take?


where do we go when we need a place to speak out and do our thang?

Answer: prince.org. Cuz prince.org can back that up.

Making a patronizing post towards Cam... with the pic of a purse and calling him 'deary'... can and would easily be seen as a comment towards his sexual preference.

It would be like calling me 'homeboy' with a pic of fried chicken.

See my avatar pic...? Get where this is going...?


That would be a genuine case IF I knew Purplecam was gay - which I didn't and quite frankly don't care if he is, it's totally irrelevant to the conversation.

The use of a handbag is a very common English (we're not all american you know) expression to insinuate that someone's acting over dramatically. Whether they're straight or gay is irrelevant, as is the colour of your skin.

Yes it was patronising, however it was in response to his way over the top post which involved swearing. I personally feel it was deserved.

Good heavens, this thread goes on for ages!

Please, can't we all let it rest (in peace) now? HQ is closed. And it will remain closed. Nobody gonna be able to do something about it. Except Aaron. But I believe he's pretty fed up with everything, so I won;t get my hopes up.

Basta...

(So mods, isn't it time to close this topic?)


Shut the duck up, you dutch Douchebag!!!

Just enjoy the civilized and sophisticated discussions here and learn for life (@ the org).
That's how we (t)roll here @ the org. (hijacking threads and saving money for shrinks by calling other ppl names ("that's you and what am I" or "yo, mama!")

Well, that's what she said, anyway

Well,

I have been a member of prince.org since the closing of housequake.com, and the following things come to mind when comparing the two:

1. Disproportionate use of emoticons at prince.org.
2. Disproportionate use of the word "fuck" and similar expressions at prince.org.
3. Eye-unfriendly layout at prince.org.
4. Slight tendency to rant and express antipathy to former housequake.com members at prince.org.

That sounds accurate...

so that part is not so bad...
