It's definitely not a glitch either as I was able to search my old profile, that I got locked out of, just fine. If a profile were deleted wouldn't any posts they made be deleted too? But I can search all of that profiles posts, like these -

http://prince.org/msg/7/169758?pr

http://prince.org/msg/7/51641?pr <<< dropping scripture!

this is him or TheWatcher profile which now has nothing there at all eek

Could be both. It's been mentioned that he had multiple accounts. When I tried searching mr7's profile via the wayback machine it showed that the last time his page was crawled was in 2013 and it was first crawled in either 2004 or 2006. But when I tried checking the captures there was no information.

TheWatcher is referenced in this thread

prince.org/msg/7/336979?&pg=4

But i'm not able to locate any of that users actual posts O.O

I think it's safe to say the watcher was probably him and at some point he manually deleted his posts for whatever reason. Even if I try searching that profile via way back machine it's like it never existed, meanwhile I can see cached pages of my old profile from various points over the years just fine O.O

Actually now that I think of it, I wonder if Mr7's profile was every publicly available to be searched to start with.

So funny that they confirm he was on here! I don't suppose Ben or Val will ever disclose his screenname, but I was always curious if a conversation "he" popped in on years ago was really him. I don't have screengrabs, but I printed it out (just in case!) falloff I'll have to scan & post it at some point. It's from the old Org (black background) - no code name, just "Prince" (all lowercase on the old site). But there were always people pretending to be him, so I never truly believed it was him (no matter how BAD I wanted to believe it!) hmm hammer

Hey all, I'm a lifelong fan who was on a.m.p (mostly lurking) in the old days, and was very active in the old Paisley Park chatrooms on AOL back in the day — I still have chat logs! Also did my time on PPML and if any of you remember the DMSR fan site, I helped archive thedawn.com there, including the copies of Prince & Mayte's wedding program. And I've been friends with Ben and Val and lots of other folks who run fansites since forever.

I'm moderately well known in tech (have done some startups, used to write for Wired) so Prince's history with everything from the CD-ROM to all his websites has been an obsession. Also, I've worked in media a bit so I know a lot of fellow fans that way.

Glad the chat with Sam and Scott and Dave was interesting; I'm hoping to do more like that in the future.

Thanks for the confirmation. 👸

It was suggested to me back in the early-mid 00s that eheiehmia/SingMia/TipN4U could be Prince. Don't know if I believe it, though.

Prince has contributed a song to Kip Blackshire's forthcoming album entitled 'Soul'.

The album is produced by Kip's 'mentor' Mr Hayes.

For a short Kip Blackshire biography mentioning Prince and the new album visit;

Interestingly the site or company also represents DVS and states that his biography is appearing shortly.

UK FANS IN NEED OF TICKETS

Hi good people of the org.

can anyone help me? i'm a LONG-TERM prince fan... not a member of NPGMC. looking for a ticket for a london show. i don't care which night.

please org note me if you are a kind-hearted NPGMC member going alone to the show, or if you are not using all your ticket allocations...

of course i will pay you for the ticket!!

___

if there are any fans in similar need, please post below with your desperate requests!!

Sorry Mr7 but that is such an unfair statement. I too am a longterm fan (have been into Prince since 1983). I live in the UK and decided only to join NPGMC when he announced a UK tour - which he has and I have!

I got my ticket for 4 October but found 5 October already sold out! Hoping he adds more club member tix?

The reason many Euro fans have not joined NPGMC is similar to my reason. 100 USD is a lot if all you get are the CDs. Now it is starting to look value for money.
'I loved him then, I love him now and will love him eternally. He's with our son now.' Mayte 21st April 2016 = the saddest quote I have ever read! RIP Prince and thanks for everything.

I think $100 for 4 CD's is perfectly good value since they become instant collectors items and not available in the shops, of course most people are happy to take copies and rip Prince off but curse him when they feel he is doing the same.

Prince has 'preached' or mentioned spiritual matters on every tour, as he has for his entire career.

He did it at Wembley in '98 and I didn't see anyone get 'mad'.

Prince's spirituality has always been in the Christian sense from 'Annie Christian' to 'The Cross', to 'Lovesexy', to 'The Holy River'.

The element people are 'disturbed' about now is that Prince is partaking in christianity through the Jehovah's Witness religion. That is their own ignorance and prejudice.

don't be so blind and up prince's arse. its nothing to do with prejudice. we all have our own beliefs so why should we all have to cheer when prince tries to convert us to his?

yes, he has always been spiritual, and no-one is disputing that or suggesting he should change, just that the prospect of him banging on about his particular belief doesn't hold much excitement for me, personally...i go for the music...

Mr7

I'm far from blind.

I just fail to see how Prince is preaching any more in concert now than he did ten years ago?

Where has Prince stated that he wishes to 'convert' you?

What personal experience have you had of an attempt at conversion?

I'm guessing none.

You're just caught up in the pathetic hysteria which pervades this site. If anyone is blinded it's you. You're blinded by rumours and conjecture.

I'm also there for the 'music'. Thats why I have tickets for all 3 nights at London.

However, I intend to keep an open-mind and enjoy myself.

If Prince makes a spiritual or christian comment I'm certainly not going to immediately connect it to the J.W religion and pressume its some sci-fi fantasy attempt at mass conversion.

in fact, the reason i have started to strongly dislike prince and his music after so many, too many years, is his preaching. he used to be a free minded person and spoke of love-sex-god in his very own peculiar way. but now he only seems to see through a very narrow path, and he's so fool to pretend we, the ones who are listening, are about to jump from the same building. after all i believe in freedom and prince believes in something that is a CULT: jehova witnesses.

Before you slander the faith of over 6 million people world-wide by deeming their religion a cult, I would advise you learn how to spell their name.

It's not about making everyone believe in the same faith. As a Christian Prince has a duty to preach and witness to others. As far as I'm aware and I've read nearly every report and review professional or otherwise, this 'preaching' is not intrusive. Furthermore it is no more extreme or radically different than the blatantly Christian spirituality he has always featured in songs and shows. 'Lovesexy' may have been 'peculiar' as you state, but when you are singing about 'heaven', 'hell', 'Jesus Christ' and 'salvation' it is certainly christian. 'The Cross' and 'The Holy River' are overtly christian in theme and approach.

By citing the Jehovah's Witnesses as your central problem with Prince's on-stage 'preaching' you have merely confirmed and proved my earlier point correct; that your problem stems from your own prejudice and personal opinions regarding the Jehovah's Witnesses.

You stated in your post that you believe in freedom. Therfore surely Prince should have the freedom to express himself and you should have the freedom to ignore him.

I do not think he preaches anymore now that he has in the past. I have an old live video where he goes on and on about God for at least 10 mins and then starts talking about orgasm in the same breath. He will do some preaching, but IMO no more than in the past.

Interesting thread.

There was also a thread a couple of weeks ago "org notes that may have been prince" - also a very interesting thread.

Some stories of how people posted on the org, then lo and behold, prince seemed to respond to it - e.g., someone wanted him to show his chest, he does so in next concert; thread about which org lady will be his future baby mama, then song with similar words; etc. Mine is, there was a thread about a TedTalk about "genius," then he discussed it in similar way in an interview couple days later.

He was definitely watching!

Some of the stuff on here was unsavory, I'm sure... wonder how he felt about it.

There have been some really funny threads over the years (very imaginative people here!) - hope he enjoyed those.
