All this talk of ‘Haters’ has got me thinking ....
My top 5
What I Hate about the ORG
1. ALL Prince comparisons to MJ (Yuck)
2. Nasty / Disrespectful comments (except mine)
3. Total jealousy of the Orgers that have met Prince (show offs)
4. Unable to post Lyrics from Lotusflow3r
5. Unable to change this Font

So what r yours?

People who bitch a moan about a website that they freely choose to participate at.

Couldn't say it better !

I don't hate the ORG but do find it (these are generalisations and therefore do not apply to all individual orgers) :

Bitchy
Immature
dare i say it - a bit base and not too "bright"
sometimes racist

I'll stop there. In the abscence of the FAR better Housequake, it is an alternative. Even when Housequake was alive, the Org was very good/quick with breaking news to be fair. However, despite seemingly having more European members, whose first language was not English, the level of discussion and debate on Housequake was far better than the Org - even the use of English was better than the English, (sorry, "American"), on the Org.

But, I don't hate it - I still choose to visit, because it's full of things Prince and there are many Orgers to which the above comments do not apply.

Would love to have Housequake back though - as well as (not instead of) Prince.org

Peace - honest !

replace the word ".org" with the word "internet" and this thread would be a lot more accurate.

Is all the arseholes who think they know shit.

hey, just sharing the real story.

Exactly

To waste time and energy on "hate" is so very pointless to me

Mach said:

Agreed.

I do wish that the respect level in general would come up a bit though. Why can't people just respect each other? It seems so simple.

Things I hate about the .org:

1. The .org won't feed my cats for me. It's not like I'm asking a lot here. It's the least you can do, .org. What's up?

2. All I wanted was a Pepsi, and the .org wouldn't give it to me. Just one Pepsi!

3. The .org won't give me a pony. I want one. A pink one. With wings. Quit being so stingy and hand it over.

4. It said on the bottle that the .org would make my hair more soft and lustrous and I feel like I have a damn Brillo pad on my head.

I could go on.

It IS simple - though for those addictd to drama and whatnot - it is boring to them

They are into the energy ... thus they stir the pot

Mach said:

It brings threads 2 a halt. What a waste.

Wow...hate is such a strong word.. I do very much dislike the lack of civility that takes place on some threads. Pretty much the same thing others have mentioned. Just a general lack of respect. I stopped visiting on the regular months ago. I can only stomach the org in small doses LOL!

I kinda like this thread. yet I kinda dislike this thread. but in no way do I hate this thread

chocolatehandles said:

Yes I really hate them

I hate aubergines. I don't think I've ever tasted anything good with aubergines in it.

mcmeekle said:

I hate when people call aubergines eggplants or brinjal!

Aubergines!

mcmeekle said:

i have a pair of aubergines but i rarely wear them because they're boot cut and i feel like i'm swimming in the legs.
