But... THEY ARE the org...

Did someone refuse to toss your salad, because they were listening to a Prince song, or are you just having a bad day...?

What triggered this?

It's funny because you're telling those you call 'fams' to think for themselves, but at the same time you're criticizing them for doing what you're asking them to do.

They both get a little tiresome sometimes.

It's fun to disconnect from the fanbase once in awhile and not have to worry about what an unforgiveable asshole you are for liking or hating the wrong songs.

But then I'm posting here now, so...

WTF!?

I've just never understood how some people can focus on something they don't like for a number of years and constantly go on about it. There's easily 500 or some Prince songs I don't like and they've been mentally shelved for quite some time. I wouldn't start threads about them or even talk about them much. I'd rather focus on the thousand some odd songs I like/love.

^ Is THAT for real? The woman looks fully grown too, no teenager, how can an adult think this is a good idea? And how did his little hat stay on? Questions, questions...

Yes. She was delusional. It's glued to the hairpiece.

I hope that's not some kind of bizarre new euphemism...

If you search for 'humpalina' in the google search box in the top right-hand corner you can learn all about it, including seeing the photo of him with a towel over his head when he returned to the stage, 'afraid' someone else was going to try and kiss him (which is how it all started, with him pretending to faint when a fan that had come on stage to dance stole a kiss...then took things way too far)

This conversation has been done a million times, and it needs to stop. I agree with you. Uncritical fans are annoying, as are hateful fans. I'm no doubt considered an ass kissing fan because I love his 90s music, but saying I (or anyone else on this site) can't think for themselves is prejudiced and ridiculous, and has already been discussed countless times here. I have my own thoughts and opinions. I do not dislike very many of Prince's songs, but the common assumption that it must be because I'm not musically educated is wrong. I don't understand why this is being brought up (again). If you're referring to the users on this site, ignore them or leave.

We are trying to get Prince.org on new path.

If we all work 2gether we can turn this into a real Prince community for fans new and old

There are other ways to get people to view 'all things Prince' with a more wiser conclusion.

Don't post trolls/ads/spam/get-rich-quick schemes/other junk.
Don't make posts that are inflammatory just to get people riled up. Don't post useless off-topic stuff. Even if a silly, no-purpose post seems harmless and fun, don't be surprised if you get a warning and the message locked/deleted. You might think it's cute, but Moderators who have to wade through tons of posts like this, don't. In general, don't post advertisements. Advertising may be allowed in certain circumstances; ask a moderator privately before posting. If a post is mostly just an ad for another website, it will likely be removed. In general, post if you have something to say. If you want to start a new thread, make it worthwhile. Don't be lazy and give a 1-sentence "what do you think about X?". At least explain your position, why, etc... make it interesting to read; you're more likely to get quality responses.
