Someone complains about the "name calling" on this site then goes and calls people "dicks". Riiiight. | |

Yes, you would be a pan-handler. But if it was coming from a place of need to help take care of your medical bills, I might consider donating. If you were asking for donations so that you could keep your stamp or beanie baby collection going, I'd tell you to get your priorities in order, to grow up and get real. | |

That's the reason some of those miserable-ass haters are bashing him on this thread. They don't like him, but yet took their time to log on to this thread and bash him, and I gaurantee that those same haters visit DrF's site on a regular basis, looking for any Prince news regarding upcoming concerts and the like. I mean it's so obvious. I think it's funny how they make asses out of themselves bashing him, and it's usually the same ones. They're not contributing, and that's their choice, but yet they're bitching and whining like 'J' stole something from their lives. Makes no sense at all.

Errant, it's getting very confusing now. J7 claimed he spent his cash on the website to provide news instead health insurance. Meanwhile his health got worse. He has no cash, and needs help. That's why he's asking for donations. It's the same kinda thing if somebody running a fanboard would be asking for donations to run a site.
THEN he mentions his second priority: He wants to revamp this site, but he can only do this if he can sort out his health problems first. I think he's making it very clear why he needs the support. He hasn't chosen the right words, and he's writing is very misleading, but we know he isn't the best writer.
Him wanting to compete with TMZ etc. is obviously nonsense talk in my opinion.
whatever! [Edited 8/25/12 8:56am] Prince I will always miss and love U. | |

Yep and I'm sticking by it. If I get snipped, I deserve it but as a member of this community, he doesn't deserve the flaming he's getting on this thread. | |

Then I'd never ask for help. If people I know think this, no wonder J is thought of as he is on this thread. | |

Is this not what he's asking us to do? To fund his hobby so that he can beat the likes of TMZ and Perez Hilton at the celebrity gossip blog game? Or is it to pay for his medical bills while he sinks his money into his hobby?
Copied and pasted straight from his post
Drfunkenberry.com Needs Your Help! Hello Friends, Family, Readers, and Community Drfunkenberry.com is an INDEPENDENT entertainment web site focusing mostly on Music but also covering Television, Movies, and Entertainment News, and Gossip. Having to keep up with and hopefully get ahead of such sites as TMZ and Perez Hilton, I need YOUR help. The game has changed and the site needs to be revamped and the visibility of the site has to be improved. I've been trying to do it myself but it is obvious I need YOUR help to make the site better and to be able to continue running the site. I LOVE running the site and providing information and posts for you each day. The costs of running it and being able to compete is becoming harder however. Drfunkenberry.com has provided exclusive content on artists such as Prince, Lenny Kravitz, Adam Lambert, No Doubt, Nikka Costa, Green Day, and others. I want to still be able to provide you with exclusive music from these artists including interviews, videos, insider tips, and much more. Also, there is something else; my health. I am a diabetic. In the past 6 months, my health has deteriorated. I have been having pains and spasms with my legs and feet that just have not stopped, and I cannot stand for long periods of time at all. I do not have medical coverage and have not seen a doctor since this has begun because of not having insurance. The pain is quite serious. I have been able to keep the diabetes under control with weight loss in the past but have been putting more money into the site than my health to make it succeed. I understand though, in order to make the site even more successful, I need my own personal health to succeed as well. Through this fundraising page, I'm asking for your help. Here is your opportunity to help make a difference So if you would be inspired or inclined to help out the site, and I would be extremely grateful. Please consider giving an amount that is meaningful to you. I'm grateful for anything--even if it’s only $5. (You can donate using PayPal by clicking the "Donate button below) | |

Like I said, the same orgers who b*tch and and whine about DrF, are usually the same orgers who waste no time, visiting DrF's site searching for Prince news.

Funkenberry is a pathetic celebrity blog, it should be put out of its misery, not given a few paypal funds to run another month.
As I expertly stated a few pages back, if this is Prince's 'official' news site, then he can drop the 15 dollars it takes to maintain a website into Poor Me's pockets. As if orgers are going to cover someone's medical bills.
What a bunch of suckers.
[Edited 8/25/12 13:58pm] No hard feelings. | |

Exactly! These so called fans are haters on this site. Instead of congratulating him on being picked as a informer & encouraging him. They are straight hating on him. It speaks jealousy to me....

If it was not for Funkenberry I would not have gotten into after shows. I will always be grateful to him for that. No need for me to pass judgment on anything else he might say. Philmoreliz | |

Then you aren't a fan for a long time. Before drfunkenberry there was HQ (sometimes in collaboration with prince.org) and before that the NPG Music Club. Like others have said if drfunkenberry is gone, Prince will find an other outlet for the news he wants to spread. Formerly known as Parade @ HQ and formerly proud owner of www.paradetour.com | |

It saddens me to see how some folk are so judgemental when someone reaches out for help. How do you know how much money he puts into his website? How do you know what other financial obligations he might have? Being sick with no health care is no joke. If you don't want to help him out, that's your choice but remember, you might be in need for something one day. I hope that others don't treat you the same way. Consider your ways.

Like I said I don't mean to sound heartless, but if he blew his money on the site (his site is not the only site to check for Prince) and he knew he was sick, well what else you want me to think? | |

Ahh but wasn't jseven part of those communties where he consistently posted and broke Prince news on HQ, here on the org, and on the Music club?
Some of us have been around and remember the witch hunting that you and other Housequake moderators did. Interesting how you NEVER mention that.
YOU GUYS FOUND HIS HOME ADDRESS AND HIS REAL NAME AND THREATENED TO POST IT! I was scared to post anything on Housequake after that!
A person that was part on the community you guys attacked because he was jseven AND Drfunkenberry. What a fucking crime. People do that all the time. Bria Valente's ass has 7 different accounts on here and actually interacts with them. LOL!
Years later, still talking about him. Years later, he has done nothing to you, but because he has had this connection before drfunkenberry, you continue to slam him.
Honest question; has he ever slammed you the way you have slammed him? It just seems like cyber bullying. He doesn't respond or attack you, does he? Be honest. Why continue.
Does it make you feel better? What do you want from him? Again, his health is failing. You WON!
Dude could have said he was donating every cent to world peace and you ALL would attack him for putting the weapon industry out of business. | |

So if that's the case and the way you feel about it, then let it go. [Edited 8/25/12 19:55pm] | |

Okay, so maybe that explains the reactions from certain former HQ mods (or maybe not, who knows), but what about the rest of us who simply don't see the value in promoting a fundraiser at this site for someone whose dream didn't work out on another site and now wants someone else's fanbase to fund it while he's let his health slide because he's invested his entire life into his hobby?

That's cool Errant. But have you ever said anything nice about the guy.....ever? Or has it been the same attacks? I mean if someone was nuetral, it would mean more. BTW, what other site did he have? | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
I don't know what you mean about any other site he's run.
But no, my attacks have not always been the same. This is a real issue. Any other issue has been poking fun at him for being the self-appointed mouth-piece of Prince and the extremely biased Prince-based news that comes from his website. And THOSE barbs have only been because he refuses to admit that that's what he is. I found that humorous. This issue I don't find to be humorous at all and the users of this site (or his, for that matter) should not be asked to financially enable this person's delusional behavior at the expense of his own personal well-being.

What you have here is some people who think the money is going to his healthcare because of the secondary sob story he tagged on to his beg letter. The same people who think the blog is some sort of official news site for Prince and if it were to go, then there would be no official news source - which is ridiculous.
I'd forget about all the HQ stuff, I honestly don't think you guys know what you're talking about and don't know the whole story (nor do I which I why I don't think it's worth commenting on). | |
