There should be a thread titled, The good, the bad, and the ugly, all about _____________ (what ever name).

As long as this new "reality" is evenly applied across the board, this should be a good thing. nod

How about one thread per associate where news, video, social medial etc. can be posted. Would be much better than 5 different threads about something Andy or Mayte did/said.

Just create a new section entirely called "Prince's Lovers" where ostensibly adult people who have a LOT of time on their hands can get in touch with their inner seventh grader by bickering over who was prince's "soul mate," the hidden message of a tweet in 2014, the secret code in the shirt so-and-so was wearing on that one day 5 years ago, etc.

-

Then restrict the associates section to discussion of music and other professional work by people with some Prince connection, whether they were romantically entangled or not.

There are multiple posts about a few of the other female associates too. It is kind of confusing and a bit hard to follow.

No it isn’t.
It would then become a “competition” for you and Fly to see which thread can get the most clicks.
You’re always thinking ahead, aren’t you?

I have never created one thread on any of the forums. Most of the threads about Andy were created by Latin.I believe that Fly started three and the other two, including the Superconductor Appreciation thread were by other posters.

And, the one about Andy's love letter was also posted by someone else.

It's not all that confusing. I don't think there's more than 2 threads on the first page about any one associated. Exept for andy allo. She has 7.

-

But the bigger problem is that "associate" has come to mean "girlfriend/wife" instead of professional collaborator, and the discussions are all about his personal relationships with these women, rather than professional.

-

For example, the discussion of Janelle monae's excellent new album is in the "non-prince music" section. Would she not be considered an "associate"? what's the definition? if the definition is "lover/protegee" then just call this section that.

For some reason, Andy is always singled out by certain people. For the record, there are presently seven (7) active Mayte threads...and that's just on the first two pages. There are five-six Vanity/Denise threads. And, presently, Natalya, who is not even technically a Prince protege, has at least three active threads.

This section isn't supposed to be restricted to "prince protegees" (however you define that). It's about "associates." Those can be men, women, professional, friendly, romantic, etc. And it's not some competition between these women to see who can have the most threads, posts, views, etc. i mean, honestly.

-

And yes page 1 of this section has 7 andy allo threads, in which the same couple posters are just talking about whatever stuff they always talk about (as oppposed to the actual subject of the thread).

No, it's not a competition, but it was YOU who singled out Andy Allo for a thread count....and I responded to YOUR reply. And, now that I have pointed out that there are multiple threads for several Prince associates, you want to conveniently forget counting.

Also, BTW, there are Andy threads that were started by FOUR different Orgers...and there are NUMEROUS responders on each. I don't know why you want to make it seem like there are only three Orgers interested in AA, but it's just not true.

Fly, most of the responders on the Andy Allo threads who aren't one of the 3 usual suspects are people trying to talk some sense into the 3 usual suspects (well, primarily you, frankly) about what reads as an obsession. There aren't heaps of people eagerly joining your conversations about, say, the meaning of that ring andy wore in that one picture.

-

And, yes, the 7 threads were started by a couple different people, besides the 3 you started. For example, one was started by a moderator to as a retort to you when you were complaining that you were being prevented from having the full quantity of active andy allo threads that you felt entitled to.

-

But it's all moot because the moderators have some plan to clean up this section and good for them!

That's just not true. Of course, there are two-three Orgers who come on every single Andy thread hurling insults, unfounded rumors, and profanity, but somehow they are the sensible ones in your story. Besides those Orgers, there are numerous other participants in the threads.

It is also important to note that you could say the same thing about threads about Mayte, Vanity, etc: There is a core group of Orgers who keep them going. But, none of them are hounded like Andy enthusiasts.

And, I'll not wade into the moderator quagmire, beyond saying that my major issue is (and remains) the erasure of wonderfully informative threads on Prince and Andy, which, btw, translates to archival information on the final years of his life. You would think such information would be welcome on Prince.org.
