What time should we say this? How are you going to organise this? Do we have to shout it or can we just say it under our breath? Have you thought this through? You can't just put this sort of thing out there without co-ordinating something. I don't need this kind of worry right now so close to the launch of PRINCE'S NEW WEBSITE!!!!! biggrin
Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

Ummmm...yeah...I doubt it.

1. I'll bet you $77 there are no forums at lotusflow3r. The org will continue to thrive for that reason alone.

2. Those who are unwilling to shell out $77 to join lotusflow3r will need a place to bitch about it. Again, the org continues to thrive.

I so hope and pray there is a forum over there! I really, really, really do! But I bet you're right, there are probably no forums over there, I wonder why not?

If you were Prince, would you want people dissing you (or your protegée) in your own living room?

There was a discussion forum on NPGMC and it was so heavily-moderated, basically anything negative, or anything that wasn't "praise" or "thank you", was removed. Seriously.

Though I do think there's not enough "positive" posts about Prince's work, when it's artificial or "forced", it doesn't have the same effect.

But I thought the people joining were the "TRU fans", the "haters" will be staying where they can diss him for free. So surely, that can't be the reason.

It sure wasn't. There were times it could rival the org in negativity, just without the cursing.

Oh I know, I was there and witnessed it first hand. Watching fams, being forced down into the purple kool-aid, by the PP's to come up sounding like the Stepford Wives, gave me the creeps. Prince.org was my life preserver! hug Thanks again, Ben! hug

i'm glad u think the org won't b here cause the only way that will happen is if Ben decides 2 shut this place down (hope he doesn't), but i want u 2 understand this one very basic principal:


after all the "official" sites prince has opened then closed, the ppml/org has ALWAYS BEEN HERE ...so when lotus opens up, i truly hope u stay over there all the time ..so then there will b one less troll 2 make stupid ass threads like this on here rolleyes
