why would someone bring this thread back from the dead

Because I haven't been on this site as long as everyone else and I'm not about to ask permission to put up any threads.
...wtf are you getting defensive about? you weren't even the person who brought this thing back from the dead

By the way, there's a Prince Vs. Michael Jackson dancing thread in here too and members are responding to it like crazy. I could have just as well put that thread up here too because I know someone in here has probably put that same thread in here before you were a member too.
ok...and what does that have to do with replying on month old threads?

My point is, we all have our right to put up any thread that we want to and I'm not about to go searching this whole entire site to see if a thread has been posted, and I believe other members aren't about to do that either.
My points are,
first; if you're going to reply to someone, know what the fuck he/she is talking about before looking like an idiot.
second; learn some more internet/forum lingo.
third, if you googled prince vs. hendrix, 2 org threads are the first two results, so there are other ways to find info than searching through forums. instead of starting another prince guitar thread, i just searched that and not only got more than a few org/housequake threads come up, but other websites as well. you're on the internet, be resourceful.
fourth; dont make another one, as you and i have already discussed, the biasness on this site is ridiculous. you mentioned that prince vs. mj thread, i dont even have to talk about that

Oh yeah, and Jimi is better.
at least you said something right

This topic has been done to death in this forum. Not knocking the person who started this thread cuz perhaps they didn't know this has been done MANY times. But I'm ALWAYS curious as to why the folks who start these threads , don't EVER ask this question over in the Non Music forum. I mean, they NEVER take this over there. Hmmmm, I wonder why? Again, I'll say here what I always say..Prince himself could actually come on here and say "Look ya'll...I know I'm good but Hendrix was the man." And you would have people trying to argue Prince down about it. Also I'll say what I always say...MOST people in this forum will say Prince. Period. If you compare Prince to ANYBODY in this forum, MOST people here will favor Prince. It's the nature of the beast. It's like the sun rising in the morning. It's THAT automatic. Some on here aren't even that familiar with Hendrix enough to compare him to Prince. How do I know this? Because some on here has stated as much. Me, I say Jerome Benton is better than both of these cats put together.

Ok now, unchartered territory here.

Joe Satriani taught Steve Vai how to play guitar.

I can't believe that I put a thread up taking the piss and it got locked. All I asked was who is the better guitarist, Jimi Love (aka Prince of Purple Reign/Rain fame) or Prince? Only two people were dim enough to reply before it got locked.

And going back to my thread, it wasn't a duplicate. I was comparing a different Jimi to Prince, not Hendrix. Retards.

I can answer this question definitively, once and for all, and no one can dispute this:

Whoever you like listening to best, that's who is the best.

Mods, stickify my answer.

Well, it's sure in the hell not going to be me. More power to it. I've always said that this topic isn't that deep to begin with. And like I've also stated in the past regarding this thing...Prince himself could do a video where he says looking dead into the camera that Hendrix is the superior guitarist and you'll have people STILL saying shit like Prince didn't mean it,...he doesn't know what he's saying...the whole 9. To be honest, I'm shocked that there are as many people on THIS site that has favored Hendrix over Prince. Who would have thought?

well geez flowers...apparently we are ALL supposed to be MINDREADERS, or didn't u know that????

I asked the following: "...who is the better guitarist, Jimi Love (aka Prince of Purple Reign/Rain fame) or Prince?"

Now which part of Jimi Love's name is confusing you? Is it his first name, Jimi, or his surname, Love? Either way by placing them together I thought I'd more than clearly stated just whom I was talking about. But just to help those slower ones along I'll make it obvious: Jimi Love and Jimi Hendrix are different people. One's still alive and is much younger than Hendrix. For those lucky people who found themselves in Ireland this year a few even had the opportunity to speak to Jimi Love. I can categorically state that Jimi Hendrix was not there that night so no confusion should have occured.
