As time ticks by & we come to terms with this bloody awful loss do you believe that Ben & the gang will want to continue with the org & if so would you still continue to visit & be a part of the community? Do you need the org or similar top be around?

Would love the Mods/owners to chip in here! What are your plans guys?

I've been here before...truthfully left because of the obvious [!] came back when Prince passed because there was a definite need to be part of the community & share in our collective grief & saddness & sense of utter loss.

I've noticed that, as is always the case with any board/community that the nastiness is rising again & so I'll sadly go away again but dip in every so often.

Noooo!!!...Please don't get rid of the Org. There will be so much more Prince related news/happenings in the coming months and years ( the fate of his estate, ex-wives and band mates future books, interviews ect.) and this is a great place to come and talk about it all. Sure, there are some nasty people here, but that's gonna be everywhere. I find there are more good people on the Org than bad. So to the moderators: Please don't shut the org down. We still got a long way to go.

Peace and Love...


The org is not going anywhere.

Since I've started coming on this site and posting about Prince on social media, nothing but annoying shit has been happening to me (like older men preying on me and using Prince as the excuse). I never really liked this site to begin with but I really felt like I needed to make an account and share my feelings with everyone and mourn together since Prince's passing. But in conclusion, this site does nothing positive for me, even expressing my feelings doesnt help because it's not like anyone really cares. I mean I'm not particularly close to anyone here although I'd love to be friends with a fellow Prince fan, but I guess it's just not in the stars for me. I try to make friends with Prince fans on social media but either they always end up having hidden motives or they just don't like me, so it doesn't happen. This site has always been negative and will continue to be. There's really no point in taking the shit anymore because the #1 orger doesn't exist anymore. Whatever happens in my life, I will always love Prince and hold him in a special place in my heart, but this site will never receive the same treatment. Nuh uh disbelief It was nice talking to the polite, respectful folks though. heart Thanks to all the people who actually love Prince and weren't dicks to anyone just to be dicks. Peace and BE WILD! wildsign headbang cool

Surely that's not happening here on the org. If she's being harassed via orgnotes I would think it would be a simple matter of reporting the offending party to the mods, no?

I think she means 'and posting about Prince on social media' where older men are coming on to her, not the org

well, she does sound like a 17 year old though, so that could be a factor. Also, there is plenty of negativity, more than enough to go around. Less than when he was alive for sure though. Why people have to wait until someone is safely in the ground to celebrate them is beyond me.

in some ways it's the best time to celebrate an artist whose died. It happened with elvis, it happened with michael and now with Prince. It's human nature to take for granted what you have and only miss it when it's gone. Elvis and Michael were both jokes at the ends of their lives, in both case, overnight that changed. even the media had a myriad of articles about how michael was the victim of his own celebrity and money grubbers. The kind of articles with a slant to them that you rarely saw in his life. Everyone felt fucking guilty over that one. Prince, i don't quite feel the same, I just feel that he was the all around greatest artist this country has produced in that style of music we call pop/rock/funk. And now it's time for everyone to face up to that fact. It's part celebratory.

I'm not "stuck in sadness" or "in a bad way" so I don't know what you're talking about.

The day he died, EVERYONE was coming up to me at work or texting me, and the thing I told everyone (fuck, and myself) was UNTIL I SEE IT ON THE ORG I REFUSE TO BELIEVE. You guys crashed that morning, which has never happened in my 12 years being on here (had my first account in 2004. Still there lol).

Needless to say, 12 years. Fuck. I don't even have social media accounts! This is a fuckin message board/fan site for Christ's sake, how old school is that? Lol. I grew up here. I really did. I'm 27 and I'm replying right now.

If you guys shut down, I'd understand. But I'd personally love it if it continued.

I started my own meet and greet in LA. I would've never done that had he never died. This site brings me closer to people. Call it naive, but I feel myself opening up more to you.

Who knows what love can come from that.

For me at this point in time it's too soon to even have this conversation Lol There is no other option but to be here. Who knows about the future?
And a big thank you to the founder and the mods that make prince.org the real deal.
It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. We all need one another. ~ PRN
