ok.. now a thread has presented itself (which i was waiting for lol)..

this is one of the reasons i DONT participate in a serious thread about music

http://prince.org/msg/7/270432

i remember a few weeks back, Nurse started a thread saying she wasnt feelin'the new Prince jam he sang on Jay Leno and an orger jumped in that thread and condemned her for sayin'that... how can you have a productive, objective healthy conversation about his music when you have ppl attacking you for what you like or dislike as far as his music? if you say you dislike the PE album, you hear critcism for not liking it..., i mean really, only a mature person with an 'open' mind can you talk to about his diverse genres of music....we all have different tastes and there's nothing wrong with that...and if you dont like some of his stuff, it's perfectly normal.... and then you have people here who have knowledge on stuff but some of them you cant talk to either ..cause..they resort to berating, condescending and name calling people in the conversation over some difference with another orger.. ..thinking they are 'above' others for what they know (the big 'I' and the little 'u' mentality)... so.. when people are more mature and open to listen and respect others (RESPECT, a big issue in this forum) in this forum, im sure it will grow.... and i think we should all respect, be patient and make room for the newbies cause they want to learn too about Prince ...



nod Yes Respect, we should all be respectful to one another here as well as in our daily lives. The world would definitely benefit from that!

I don't post in this particular forum much, but I do think that threads about Prince's personal life, the death of his child, his ex-girlfriends, girlfriend, ex-wives, religion and other very, personal issues and rumors, needs to be left off this site period, and the mods really need to be more involved in deleting those type of threads altogether, not just locking it so that people could still read it. It should be about the music..just my 2 cents. shrug
[Edited 5/17/08 16:56pm]



The off-color personal comments are a big turnoff and so are the re-users who are allowed to create multiple accounts so they can troll and spout pseudo spiritual babble because they think Prince is reading it and sending them telepathic messages. I've even seen this person respond to their own posts using different screen names. Everybody knows who I'm talking about here.

Others post on every single thread whether they have anything of substance to add or not just to remind everybody one more time that Prince is either the second coming or the devil incarnate, take your pick.

Why would anyone continue to try posting decent threads when they constantly get jacked, clowned and trolled? It ruins the flow of the discussion, that's why a lot of us seldom post in this section anymore.

Like I said before, since I don't own or moderate the org, It's up to others to decide how much stupidity will be tolerated here.
Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise.

Protege said:


but what i really think is creepy and annoying is the super-analysis of shit and the stalker-esque stuff - i.e. "what do you think prince meant when he took this one breath at 5:45:03 on February 7, 1987?????!!!!??" falloff it's just wrong. same thing is going on with threads that are getting creepy ass responses that no one understands.



clapping That sums it up for me.

Someone asked why more serious/longtime Orgers don't post on the more-substantive threads when they surface. It's because posters such as the ones Protege just described make any consistent dialogue really difficult.

So, I typically stay out of the Prince forum. And, I'm a music geek who could talk about Linn drum programming, Warwick bass licks and other stuff for hours. In a word, the Prince forum has gotten a bit cartoony.

[Here we go with the thread jackers rolleyes

This is a serious discussion, keep on topic, thanks. - luv4u]


What defines it as a serious thread? It started as a dig (at me), by a poster known for participating in noncicle threads by the dozen.

It repeats a topic already raised with over 5000 views on my original thread.

Can I ask...

Why is this a sticky topic?

Why is this a sticky topic instead of the thread it digs at?

Why ask someone to stay on topic when the very essence of the topic is vague in itself?

2. ... because we like PM&M orger nursev

viewaskew where are you? in P&R?

PM&M has little to do with the forum title. However I agree that newbies need their fix but some threads are really very silly, people want to have fun and maybe cant think of good enough discussions. I wish the old orgers who watch but dont join in would post some stuff even if its been discussed way back its good to have views from newbies etc theres no harm in re-discussing topics.

I think u will find that the reason this is a sticky is because nurse was talking about the threads in P:M&M....not in any of the other forums.
Ure right though...it would be good to re-visit some of the old topics so u could see the newbies point of view as well....I dont know if I cound as a newbie lol

i dunno chilli are you a newbie? what is new to some is old to others
i find that sometimes i post a question and i get an overwhelming response of shut up its been done already by some folks who think they know everything and perhaps they do but doesnt mean i shouldnt ask the question and as ive said before in P&R i dont want to trawl thru tons of old posts to get my answer when theres a whole world of orgers ready and willing to answer me straight away. So they may think im a newbie just cos i asked a question they already covered, i dont think im young enough really to be a newbie lol and havent just got into princes music but to some orgers on here i guess they see me as a newbie.

I find it refreshing to answer queries of newbies and in fact have discussion with them as some are young and literally just 'discovoured' princes music, its encouraging that the youth find it as gripping and exciting as we did.

So daft threads or no, the org needs a good mix of banal and serious to cater for all sorts. i do wish there could be atad more discussion tho!
