Be honest...

Do you think that it's wrong for us to discuss possible gossip and some truths about Prince like this most of the time? Sometimes I think that as fans that we take it way too far and say things that shouldn't be said. But I also feel that there is some good to it too because it keeps our feelings for Prince and his music alive wink . What do you think honestly?

As long as it's in good fun and passes the time, what's wrong with it?

When I log off, I don't go into a bathroom painted purple where I keep the alter to Prince so that I can light candels and pray to him...

I babble some shit about prince.

I log off. I eat watch televsion, have sex, go out, have fun, and other things all NOT in his name.

I'm only here to pass some time.

Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

Mind you,

I've had visions.
I believe in God.
Prince was in the visions
But so were many many others.
That may sound crazy to most.
Those that it doesn't sound crazy to, scare me. lol

It's my weight to carry.
I'm open and honest.
I'm still not here.
I say what I say.
to pass time
nothing
else.

But is passing time by saying these things okay? I know that as a celebrity it comes with the territory, but this is someone that we all supposedly love so much (except you MickG).

I don't think there's anything wrong with the things we say.
I've been in other websites.
It's all shits and giggles.
Like I've said before.
I'm here because Prince is a uniphing charactoristic to the "family" type atmophier, and this makes interactions with you all more "real or friendly".

I know Prince is here too.
Along with several others.
Including other celeberites.

So what. wink

I'm just here for the wedding cake.

Nothing I've said has been wrong, though it might have been delebertly worded so that the majority misunderstand my statements.

Controversy.

I don't really understand people's obsessions and "feelings of love" for a celeberty. I don't get this.

I do love prince like a heavely brother, for to me that is what he is, and nothing more then that.

I'm all about God.

When I say love this is what I mean-not to turn this into a religious conversation, but we are supposed to love one another. I think that sometimes I fall victim as do others and say things about him that are just not brotherly.

I never said I wouldn't. Isn't that why I am here? Someday we'll all have a good laugh over these days. Someday isn't here now.

My honest opinion...It's a shame that grown folks need to be constantly reminded that we should treat Prince or anyone else, the way we would want to be treated.

I constantly see comments here about him that border on slander and libel that have nothing to do with an intelligent critique of his work and everything to do with the lack of character of the poster.


I think that some people get way outta line when they have the relative anonymity of a message board to hide behind.

I think that the same rules that apply to how we can treat one another here should apply to how we treat Prince as well.


I think that the quality of the discussions has gone down, particularly in the Prince music and more forum due to excessive trolling. I've seen many good threads ruined by the same attention seeking indivuduals time and again.

Lately I'm not seeing any good in it. The climate has deteriorated to the point where I've decided to visit a lot less. Hopefully, Prince doesn't waste much time here either.
Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

had to think about this one for a minute...then i thought about all the cuts i love, does anyone come close to his all around stamina and versitility? and how at the last musicology concert i left the stadium throughly pleased with his performance, so i would venture to say yes, i would still be a serious fan, but him being a cutie pie makes for nice dreams.

I've said it before.

Prince can have my respect on his terms when he's willing to give me his respect on my terms. Or according to God.

Prince has NEVER said a bad word about anybody, he NEVER gossips, he NEVER laughs AT his fans, he NEVER comes here and harrasses us just for the fun of it....and i dont think i've EVER heard a song of his in which he hates on others!!


honestly though, i'd b more concerned with how we treat each other, than what we say about prance. x

Theres nothing wrong with dechipering some Prince antics, etc. But some people have
disturbing motives, and people have to be aware of things.
