HonestMan13 said: HatrinaHaterwitz said: Wrong again! There are thousands upon thousands of threads on this website and a great many that I've personally posted to that have had absolutely nothing to do with Prince, in ANY shape, form or fashion! For quite some time now, I'm sure many will certainly agree with me, publicly or not, that those have been far better threads than the ones specifically about Prince! So you are only fooling yourself and perhaps him and/or his people too, if you think that I and the majority of people that come here on a regular basis. come here, specifically about Prince! The original reason any of us is here is for Prince. It's called Prince.org for a reason. Not GeneralDiscussion.Org. Prince may no longer be why you log on but he is the reason you signed up. That doesn't mean anybody owes him anything but it is still a Prince fansite. The depth of Prince loathing on here lately has been ridiculous. People are elated with his overhyped legal troubles and this backlash against Lotusflow3r.Com being gone is just over the top and unproductive. I still come here because I occasionally meet a fan who shares love for the music and we chat it up. Too many orgers post on Prince threads and claim to have been done with Prince ages ago. So why not go into another forum and find new topics that bring out your love for artistry? All the bile being spewed ruins it for new fans and makes this entire site seem negative when we know that's not the truth. agreed Thank you I guess others notice it too. To Sir, with Love | |

I like that quote you have up by Angelou.  I don't generally read other poets ... (don't wanna be influenced in my works) but I'm going to have to read more of her works.
That rocks. As far as the letter of apology from the Lotusflow3r team goes... that was in good order and what should've been and needed to be done. It's proper way to handle and deal with people in business situations. What I did NOT like was the fact that the team leader did not sign his or her own name. At least a first name. Also, I did not care for the comment that this has nothing to do with the internet or complaints posted on the org. That comment could and and I think should have been omitted. There are some strange goings on's with what appears to be a gang of haters here on the org .. to be sure. However, a proper letter from a business site is always in good order. The team leader of the development team .... well.... guess I won't say since I don't work there but .. I know how I would have handled that situation. I'm glad to see that corrections were made. The development team DID need to pull that blame and that shame off of Prince's good name. It wasn't right the development team dropping the ball knowing that the fans were disgruntled and kept dropping the ball. They knew because many here said they'd written the site support team and received no response. That should have never happened. Those that are assigned to deal with customer complaints ... should have never put those customer complaints on ignore..hoping the boss don't find out. What kind of nonsense is that? Is Morris and agent runnin the LotusFlow3r development team or something? sheesh. heaven help me. this is the time of the first fast. | |

Hey there mayrain ... don't you also go by a moniker called rain (rain with a bunch of numbers on the end on an AOL account?) and also Paris love somethign with a bunch of numbers on the end? cuz see I know I've heard some funny character making remarks abotu Fancy Lesibians and such ...but I am not a lesibian. I'm a straight natural born female. I'm all woman baby. I don't do porn. Shoot I wanna look at a naked woman... I'll have to do with take off my clothes and stand in front of the mirror for FREE! LOL. But since I am also the mother of a young son, and this is a christian household .... I don't appreciate your sending me porn of any kind. Then getting up and frontin like your full of love and positivity. I'm straight up. I don't talk about people and slander them behind their backs either. I'll confront the person to their face and tell them straight up. I'm just a straight up kinda girl. Peace! About the time pigs start flying out of my ass. Nice I can see your light.

mayrain said: Mirror, Mirror on the blog who's the meanest of them all? Wow I am kinda glad that they get to see how the public looks at the org. If people don't like it they need to change how fast they are at calling Prince names. It's the presses job to take the most offensive comments and to me that article didn't get the rudest ones. It was a mistake and it got fixed but people on here just love to bitch. I hope this helps people make a positive change and think about what they say on here. Love is the only way. MayRain
[Edited 3/29/10 9:20am] btw regarding those lesbian porn sites sent in email...from the AOL account of rain(with a bunch of numbers on the end of it) if that's the kind of LOVE you talkin' about ...girl... you can keep that. I appreciate the fact you talkin' about you having a big crush on me and being too shy to say anything... cuz I don't spit on Love ..when it's for real. But you can keep that phoney bologny stuff. What attracts me and turns me on ...is a man, whose responsible, relaible, dependable, kind and intelligent, That's what flips my switch and turns me. Women are just not my orientation. I've never even experiemented. It's not my thing. And I have strong aversion to snakes. The two legged kind. Taht's why I'm confronting you in the open..since what was done to me was done in secret. behind the scenes. And I'm finding out I'm not the only one. Peace! this is the time of the first fast. | |

That comment could and and I think should have been omitted. What am I missing? Neither of the emails I received said anything about the Internet or the org? | |

sweething said: IstenSzek said: man, that's twisted. they defend prince beyond reason yet they will gladly turn around and burn you. but in orgnotes, because they're such civilized people? i didn't see anything wrong with your initial post. freedom of speech and all that. I certainly didn't send you an orgnote; my opinion was written on this board. For those that did, perhaps they felt they had the same rights you did when you wrote your "article"; difference is, they choose to voice their opinions to you in private... And generally speaking freedom of speech ends when the speech becomes "hate" speech. Calling someone out of their name and making accusations about "motives" and providing false information starts to sound like "hate" expressly for the purpose of inciting people wrongly. Just one example: Luckily I got my shirt, but from reading what’s available on the internet, I’d say anywhere from 30–40% did NOT get their shirts. >>>>>How do you know how many people got/didn't get their T-Shirts? Your reference point is "what's available on the internet"????? You're all wrong. Rational, cultured and civilized people will see the truth and facts for what they are. You words were made on a public "blog" specifically for the purpose of "putting Prince on blast" and you're crying about a couple of .Orgnotes--suggestions: 1. Don't spend money on things you can't afford. 2. Don't dish if you cant take. 3. Try to reserve your judgement until you know more about the issue. My Gawd I wished I'd said that. 
well said, Sweething. well said. this is the time of the first fast. | |

These were people that are still hangin out on the org. I guess they were trying to drive off new fans. I dont know. But someof them tried to make it look like Prince was behind all that. I stopped posting for a while.. cuz I thought at first ... Prince himself was asking me to. I was actually told by that person that he/she whoever was Prince....when I asked who I was talking to. Then I realized, that wasn't him. I went back and check the old org notes they were still there at that time.. and realized I'd been played. And that wasn't the only time I got slapped inthe face by the fronters .. the actors ... mis-using his good name. Cuz that's what it is. Abuse of his good name and reputation...behind his back. Point is...your absolutely right. They don't do anyting against if it's Prince being called dirty disrespectful names meant to demean him. But they'd do it for any one else here on the org. Soemthing's in the water alright.  I have never heard of anything like this happening before, this is very troubling indeed and I am very sorry to hear that you were stalked like this. I respectfully suggest that you contact the police as this sort of thing sounds flat out illegal to me.Thank you Andrew7. yeah ..it is. You know why I didn't? For one thing, like I said, I thought it was Prince asking me not to post at first. I didn't know what was happening. the 2nd thing ...the first hacking during that same time frame, where someone called my cell phone and a relative's house phone? yeah, turned out that person is here on the org. And that person also is the bass player in a Prince cover band. So you can see my confusion at that time about what was happening I found out for sure and I even sent the Lotusflow3r.com support team an email on it. No response. No reply. Not even an kiss my ass. I'm a fan. I didn't want to make trouble for Prince. but I couldn't understand why he would do that or be behind it ... or allow his crew to do that. In other words... I didn't know what the heck was going on. Please remember, there was someone org noting me at that time before my computer got completely fried ... under the auspices of Prince himself encouraging me not to post on the org. sooooo.... I definately stopped posting for a while. but something kept bothering me abuot it .. somethign that didn't make sense. Something said in the very beginning. I went back and checked the org notes and realized that the person fronting ... pretending to be Prince, cleverly checked first to see if I was Prince. before they keyed in that they were him. It was subtle but clever ..and illicited a response from me that Oh .. No I'm not Prince. I'm a woman. From that org note reply on ... they come back like they were Prince. In the next response after that .. I actually asked. And the liar affirmed that he/she was Prince himself. Then the mind game was on and I ended up agreeing not to post anymore. Once I said that... they were done. The conversation was over. Just like that. it didn't feel good. but.... My eye's are opening now. this is the time of the first fast. | |

I respectfully suggest that you contact the police as this sort of thing sounds flat out illegal to me.I did report it to the Mod's here on the org when my laptop was fried. I even gave up the phone number that showed up on caller ID to both the LotusFlow3r.com support team and the Mod's here on the org of the man that called my cell phone, the bass player for the Prince cover band. It went no where. Someone told me about a Gov agency to turn it into ...but 1. I was overwhelmed with things at home. and 2. I didn't understand what or why this was happening or what was going on. I felt like I was in a little over my head. 3. I don't really trust Gov. agencies all that much. Sooo... I let it go. Since then, I've lost 2 computers to these attacks. I've received more phone calls ...bizarre phone calls where the person just sits there...says nothing and plays Prince music in the background. but I no longer have that cell phone now. I have a new address and different everything now. Except ... somehow they did also have my email address, and more recently I have received email attempting to trick me. but ..I recognized the email address it came from. the grass is high and full of snakes here on the org. time to trim the grass. and expose the snakes to the light. they hate it when that happens. Peace! this is the time of the first fast. | |
