Also do not resort to name calling, typing in anger, and arguing. Walk away from computer and return another day when calm. Laugh, learn and don’t take things so serious and never bring your online life troubles to your offline life, try and have some fun...

It isn't an online Paisley-Park-in-your-heart with the girl on the seesaw, honey, that much is true.

There's a seesaw, but there's a leather daddy swinging from it while a married man plays the bongos on his ass.

^ one for you and i'll toss in a free grain of salt, as well. you're going to need that~!

I'm starting to ignore it. People are gonna say whatever they'd like on the internet. Instead of getting all angry about it, I just post one of these > and go on with my day. I have been a bit of a meanie but only for these reasons

• Orgers that are secretly part of the "I hate prince committee."
• His personal business is not your business... (I don't even go to those threads. I hate them.)
• The MJ .vs. Prince orger... wtf MJ has a few fansites... go there and stay there.
• The constant complaining orgers.... shut up already damn

So what you are saying is, you want the right to complain but don't want anyone who doesn't think like you to, right?

In all of what I wrote, where did you pull that out of?

" /> it saddens me the fact that eye feel the the need 2 start this discussion,but why r alot orgers nasty?.4 many years eye have looked at prince org & been left bemused as 2 why u attack each other?other orgers?people who love prince yet some of the things eye have seen?fuck sake!the name calling,the remarks the way some orgers feel its ok 2 belittle other orgers.why do some orgers have this nasty desire 2 hurt & upset people?.ive already been on the receiving end of such crap.so what if eye make a spelling mistake,so what if a persons facts r a bit wide of the mark,so what if an ogers thread isnt coherent.why do some orgers feel the need 2 ridicule other orgers?r there realy orgers out there who actually feel more superor 2 other orgers?send other orgers nasty replies & cruel words.could it b that there r orgers out there who r self important & take great pleasure in slagging off another orger?we all love prince so why the hate?.in 1988 when eye went 2 c mj cuz the circus was in town eye wore a prince tshirt eye got alot abuse that day but eye xpected it.but when ur a prince fan & u join a prince fan site u dont xpect 2b ridiuled by other prince fans?thats mad.we all go 2 concerts meet up and chat b4 the show starts everything is cool.then what?u log on 2 prince org find a victim. thats just not right.eye would b very interested & look 4ward 2 reading what orgers think &how they truely feel.

There are alot of nice people on the org but also some bullies (I won't mention names) but like most bullies, once you stand up to them they slink off somewhere.

One thing I don't understand though, is that if you ask a legitmate question, like when I asked, "Why WON"T Prince pay his bills?" everyone goes batshit crazy and says your starting shit, says you must be one of his ex wives for asking such a question, says you've started a "bait thread" and all kinds of other silly nonsense. It's very strange in my opinion. I only asked the question because there were countless threads about him being sued, being sued again, refusing to pay this, not paying that....it was a logical question.

But your right, people should be nice. Some people are just nasty in general and will be to whomever crosses their path. It's nothing personal.

prince.org is just a reflection of what people are like in the real world.

Most people on the org are compassionate, funny, well-read, informative and just great to get to know through their written words.

Some orgers here (very few) are caught up in their own worlds and can't function in real life... so they come here to use the org as their mental toilet. They just vent and spew and whine and moan about shit that goes on in their life. Instead of dealing with it in real time... they bring that here. Its that very passive agressive behavior that will bring under cover racists to P&R, whiny bitches to GD, and music snobs that have no creative outlet to the music forums...

lets not even go into the delusional wierdos that post stuff in the PM&M forum. Lord I know Prince pops in and just shakes his head at people who think they are experts on his race, his sexuality, his hair, his left baby toe even.... but have never met the man himself.

The ONLY orgers in my years of lurking and posting here who can actually claim unfairness is a beautiful strong woman that used to post and leave her name. I was so inspired by her, when she shared her story with me I actually cried. I too made fun at her posts, but I immediately checked my attitude and my behavior. I apologised to her for being an asshole and stood up when people bashed her.

I felt that every orger here lined up to make fun of her or giggle at her expense... they were all wrong, dead wrong for making fun of her. She is the ONLY orger I seen that happen to.

No other.... the other orgers just stuck their asses out too far with their bullshit and deserved the swift kick up the ass. It was their own making, I stand by that sentiment also.

To the one orger, that I 1st made fun of, (regretfully) and has stopped posting here... if you see this, I hope you do... I think of you every day dear. You are a special woman under extraordinary circumstances. I love that you keep pushing forward, and I am so sorry that anyone here has hurt you.

You are the reason I stay here... you inspire me to be a better person everyday. I miss you, and I hope you are OK. I hope your son is better, and I hope life is finally easier for you.

All my love to you C. P. I respect you more than any other orger here... and that's saying a lot since many people here are some awesome human beings.

In short, the org. is what you make it

sometimes I wonder if I'm just reading people wrong and they come across as meaner than they really are. I know that happens in emails a lot.

paintedlady said:

I like that so much I gave you two quote boxes. And what you say is true, but that doesn't mean its not frustrating sometimes. Its just human nature that so many people openly expressing their opinions will not agree about everything all the time.

I can say this: prince.org had me look at it thru rose coloured glasses and I found myself takin' what people were sayin' sometimes to be 'stand up comedy', on some Andrew Dice Clay sh!t or somethin' ... LoL

I don't tell all of my business here, but I find that I am one of the most misunderstood orgers here. I don't know if it's my wording, or I come on too strong. I think you would have to know a person or meet them before you know where they're coming from. Also, I like to research topics and when I do, I like to share it, but I guess people take it as an know it all attitude, but that's not the case.

I've said this in another post...

If someone is trying to pick a fight with you, it's easy

enough to just not respond to the bait and it will fade

away.

I mostly find the squabbles amusing, but I've known 2 orgers

get bullied into closing their accounts recently, which is

sad.

And I hope squirrelgrease comes back. I never saw him

get engaged in the malicious stuff, so who knows why

he has been MIA. I miss him though!

Hi Carrie

I can't speak for Squirrelgrease, but personally, I've stopped coming here because it just stopped being fun. I was on here all the time, but now only log in once every couple of weeks, don't post and log back out.

Every thread's the same. Someone starts a topic, the same people slag off the topic, the same people wade in and slag off the people who slag off the topic because they don't like them, the other people then slag off those that slagged them off.. blah blah blah... boring.

And I'm not complaining, I'm not asking people to change, it's the org, it should go where its posters take it. Just thought I'd share my views on why I and possibly others don't post here anymore.

Right, back into radio silence!

AMEN!

Had to repeat this since it makes so much sense.

There are too many senisitive people here who can not handle any disagreement in the slightest in a discussion forum where disagreement will naturally happen.

Its human nature that we can not and will not be liked by everybody.

Its human nature to misunderstand people and be misunderstood.

If you are misunderstood you want to be understood and given the room to clear your name and stances you take not as attacks on others but simple misunderstandings.

Well give others the same consideration also, because you may be misunderstanding them and it may not be an attack at you at all.

If you don't understand that then take a break from the org... you'll realize anything here really doesn't matter that much anyways.

@ "mental toilet". That's so true.

Another thing that helps on the org is having a thick skin, and not letting what people say get to you.

Either davetherave6767 left or was banned from the org, because his profile is no longer available.
