Is Prince being mean to us when he tweets at us? Or is he just not coming off well over the internet, because in his tweets his tone is always wild af. He sounds irritated and like he's scolding us. Is that really what he's doing or no? Does he not like talking to us? [Edited 3/30/16 10:19am] | |

I don't think Prince cares that much about his fans. Prince 4Ever. | |

But, if he didn't care, he wouldn't talk to us at all. | |

I think he just gets tired of the same questions over & over again. I don't really see it as being mean that much, he often comes across as a smartass imo. At the very least, he's somewhat engaging/interacting with fans to a certain degree. | |

- Correct Anonymous. I think yesterday he might have been a tad irritated. He's human at least. He tries to be funny sometimes which isn't easy on black/white print and 140 characters, let alone the two words he often allows. It can be misinterpreted and come over as cold but I don't think it's meant that way. He' also uses Twitter as Prince would. His way There one moment gone the next. You know Prince... - He's never fit into a box. That's why it's always surprising to find his fans trying to put him in one. The very thing they fell in love with they try to destroy. Uniqueness. - What would you like to hear him say? What's funny or mean to you?

I think he is just calling out people who tweet at him constantly and the same stuff.
From backseat driving tweets, to chill on the video footage of shows, and the chappelle pancake photo. If I was him, I would condensending af to have them stop tweeting at him. They don't stop though. They are either oblivious to him trying to school them or just not very bright. The one last week where he went off on someone for altering pics that were fine as is was funny stuff.
He is having open dialogue with us but when it makes web site news where the tweet is screen grabbed about youtube, it will make him more cautious on what to tweet and sooner or later, deleting the account eventually.

Don't infer tone in tweets. You'll be happier that way. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

You can set notifications to know when there's something to read so you don't have to check twitter more than twice a day. Conversations: click the bottom right hand horizontal colon. Discussion right now on scampers selling Atlanta tickets for 1.5 k on EBay. Dirty world. Twitter is good if u have a political gripe and want to reach an audience but also for sharing music.

I don't think so. I think he just has a rather cheeky sense of humour. I like to screenshot his funniest tweets and put them on a folder on my computer to look at when I get down. He once even 'retweeted' me once when I told him I did that!

It's hilarious that people think that's really him tooting those tweets. Of course, some here "know it's him!" (but sorry, they can't tell you how they know it's actually him. but they know. for sure. but they can't say more than that. )

- Politicians 100 times more powerful than Prince sit down with their teams and answer tweets. Why wouldn't Prince? Besides I think you missed the previous thread on Twitter about who tweets.

He is also trying to educate us when he send tweets out like this:

Huh? What exactly do politicians or anybody else have to do with Prince and his Twitter? What other people do doesn't really prove what Prince does or doesn't do, about ANYTHING, let alone tweet on Twitter. As for why wouldn't Prince (use Twitter)? I don't know, I've always made a point to say that I'm not arrogant enough to claim to POSITIVELY KNOW FOR SURE (unlike some around here who I won''t name) anything about Prince, despite being a fan for as long as I have and getting some idea of what he's like and sounds like in tone and manner...and based on the content and wordage of the tweets on that account, IT'S MY OPINION that very, very, VERY few of those tweets sound like Prince. They sound more like they're written by some 20something trying hard to write in the vein of Prince(bonics). - - And I'm so sorry, I must have missed the thread here where it was concluded definitively by Org members that it is, without a doubt, Prince tweeting. I'm so glad there are so many extremely knowledgeable people on this site who have all the inside facts about everything Prince.

You're predicting the previous thread without having read it and thus jumping to conclusions. "Free URself, B the best that U can B, 3rd Apartment from the Sun, nothing left to fear" Prince Rogers Nelson - Forever in my Life - | |

Re: politicians. If they are not above sitting with their team to tweet no reason why Prince wouldn't be. Or do u know something better with conclusive evidence ? "Free URself, B the best that U can B, 3rd Apartment from the Sun, nothing left to fear" Prince Rogers Nelson - Forever in my Life - | |

I will try to make this easier for you to understand: I never said Prince was "above" twatting on Tweeter. I said those tweets DO NOT SOUND LIKE HIM -- TO ME. ***I*** believe he does NOT actually tweet those non-sounding-like-him tweets, but rather, a minion does it trying to sound like him (but failing). I don't understand your dragging politicians into this discussion as a point of comparison whatsoever. Whether politicians tweet or not has no bearing on whether or not Prince does, has, or will do ANYTHING. * * And um, no I dont know "something better with conclusive evidence" and I make that point quite clear in almost all my posts, if you'd bother to really read what I've written. | |
