I think P is getting old a crabby. We buy everything...even the stuff that sucks, so he's not hurting for cash. These communities are just like best friends getting together a swapping collections. He needs to "Get Off"!

so um....what do you call the org gallery? and i wasn't aware that HQ invested in legal council. From what I know they have always responded to p's legal requests...just like the org. However, P's camp has also provided HQ with official photos....it's not as black and white as you've stated.


I know it's not sosgemini, and my knowledge about these things is only anecdotal.
But I do know HQ have some type of legal assistance. They know exactly what their legal rights are, and will negotiate with Prince on a compromise, depending on what it is he wants at any given time. That is where those official pictures came from, they were part of a compromise to remove certain materials from the site.


i don't follow hq at all so i can't really comment on their situation but i do know that since i have been a mod we have received one request from representative's of prince...and the minute that was received, those mods with relevant knowledge (Matt) gave their opinions on how to respond. other then that i am unaware of any changes to this site due to a request...

and as far as the look of this place, that's all ben....nothing to do with any conditions set by prince. he built this site from the ground up and doesn't use templates like hq...hq needed the graphics to differentiate it from its original template.

Prince wrong? No. Can't happen. That would break the seventh law of relativity. erm...or something

whendovescry2000 said:

STOP THE PRESSES - I cannot believe that you said Prince is wrong. The world will stop and the time continuum will cease. Saying that he is wrong is blasphemy - like saying no to an ape (Planet of the Ape series Battle for the Planet of the Apes fifth and final film in the series). Be very careful.

because i don't think being a "fan" means that you agree with everything Prince does, says or records.

we should REALLY start another thread about Prince's "master business skills". lol especially the Warner days. because you know what?




(in a whisper)

warner was right, and prince was wrong.


i said it!

Cool history rewind there. I've always been wondering about that.

As prince fans, why is everyone doubting him so much? haven't y'all learned he's a master businessman? He's ALWAYS 10 steps ahead of everyone. He has many god-given gifts and that's why we're all so attracted to him. Let's just support him and believe he KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING!

Wait, are you serious? omg

Hey yeah....piss even more of your fans off....good idea...you fucked up little self righteous twat!

I'm finding it harder and harder to continue to call myself a Prince fan.....All he's done for the last 10 years is produce second rate crap and sue anyone who mentions his name without written permission....he can bite my ass.

..oh, and Prince?...buddy?...there is no God....so shove that bible up your skinny ass....probably best to remove your head and Larry Graham's tongue first.

...not that I'm bitter smile

Is it me or is Prince becoming a laughing stock...yet again? Only this time...he's alienated the very folks who could and would (if he weren't being such a double drag party poop!!!) counter it?

This is downright unnecessary.
People that love Prince and will continue to do so, are
the only people that he needs to listen to his music.
Do you love him? I mean, really?


Of course I do, I really do. I don't know how rich he'd be if I was the only one that bought his stuff, but I'd still love him.

why do you think he ain't f_ckin with the org [well at least not like youtube]
he ain't sweatin real fans
he's covering ALL OF *OUR* @SSES by bringing the issue to a "head".


So why is he fuckin' with Housequake then? That website is comprised of "real fans" just as much as here... Prince ain't covering anyone's proverbial ass but his own, don't kid yourself.

I would have PAID FOR the superbowl performance, if it had been released on Itunes!... I don't understand him most of the time. Youtube is a huge marketing tool, and 3121.com is not only dull, but slow with updates. Embrace technology, stop running away from it! ugh! This guy always finds a way to shoot himself in the foot. This has been going on since the mid 80s... I am baffled that he has survived so long in this business.

In an attempt to answer your question why he has lasted this long. Prince is like a 3 year old child. The stage in which the child wants to do it himself. You've heard the phrase "I do it” or "Me do it." All the while you watch knowing that he is about to spill that glass of milk. When he does you run over help - and he (the child) is most appreciative then for a while the child lets you do everything until on day (usually 3 days later) he asking "Me do it!" again. When Prince's career winds downs and no one is buying his stuff he cries for help and his new agent or new attorney gives him advice. He follows to the letter until he gets back on top and is the star again. The he falls back to "I do it!!! Me do it!!!"
