Well u know.. 1 must question where the 'loyalty' lies I suppose.
Like I said, this site among others, has brought me many hours of joy and laughter.Kept me company,and warmed many a lonely winter night, but nowhere near as much joy and positive 'time alone' as Prince's music. 4 that gift alone that this man has chosen 2 share with each and every 1 of us, I feel it absolutely imperative 2 respect his wishes.
Sometimes it's just nice 2 think things thru on ur own u know, minus distractions & things like peer pressure.

Well at the moment 'his wishes' rn't xactly crystal clear..but I gather he doesn't want pictures posted of him or his TMs etc. I won't do that anymore. Not just here, anywhere 4that matter, as I've done in the past.
And if my understanding is correct, he doesn't want 2 even b discussed here or anywhere else in a public forum, then so b it. Won't stop me doin it in person 2 my friends and neighbours. Won't stop me listening 2 his music and 4ming my own opinion of it. I have 2 say reading many sites online has somewhat influenced my take on his music, not always positively. Perhaps it'd b a nice change 4 me at least. shrug
Noone should b offended. The effort and coordination that must go in2 running a site like this, which I'm certain spawned from a genuine love of the man and his music is 2 b commended. If Prince's doesn't appreciate it tho.. I mean that's the bottom line...if he doesn't like it or approve, what's the use? really..
It's like staying in a stale relationship. No fun at all.

The other thing u gotta keep in mind, it's not the idea of people getting 2gether and discussing Prince and his music, sharing stories, differing opinions and a laugh.
It's THE MEDIUM.
I appreciate the sentiment Jochem, but there's no such thing as luck. Wish u well.

The part that I highlighted is the very reason I'm staying. Yes, Prince has his rights but so do we! We are the consumers. We are the very reason that he has any copyright worth protecting. If we cower to his demands of not discussing his music on a public forum, don't we give him the power to say that we can't discuss his work in any forum, including private.

Don't we also give power to all celebrities and public officials, hoping to follow Prince's example? I'll bet money that Web Sheriff thinks so! If Prince, our door opening trend setter, succeeds on this, he'll inadvertently give those web cowboys the clout to turn the net into the wild wild west for real.

The fallout from this won't just effect Prince fan sites. If we don't stand up for our rights now, we won't have any later!

Thats what I don't understand. What is there to plan? If you want to avoid the site because the almighty has hinted he has a problem with it, why not simply put out a goodbye and go?

Why hang around to chat about your own departure?

Saying that, he could be gone now, so I tip my hat if he's a man of his word!

Why would anyone leave the Org over this?

You AREN'T supporting Prince by coming to this website.

The Org is the good guy in this.

Leaving the Org basically means you're siding with Prince/the Web Sherrif.
