For almost 15 years, I've been a part of many newsgroups and forums and I've never seen anything like the garbage that's been posted here; even a.m.p. in it's most negative times has never hit the LOW that this place has hit. I thought most of us voted for moderated forums and the option to ban user names and IP addresses to stop this from happening to the org. I can only imagine the various reporters, music critics, and sundry celebrities who visit this site -- what must they think of us? And you all expect Prince.org to get some kind of fansite award?! We're a bunch of sick fools for sure. I gotta go before someone thinks I'm part of it. ("Do what you will shall be the whole of the Law"?? Many suffer because of the few).

lol, I agree with you soulsplash to a certain extent

I agree with soulsplash 100%, but I'm staying put as I don't fear the ridicule by association factor!

Goodbye, soulsplash!

Don't U think that all this negativity and
moral degradation may soon pass? The pendulum
is bound to swing the other way.
The recent subjects seem to have offended many
members of the Org. That in itself speaks volumes.
There can still be dignity and human decency as
well as morality and pleasantness here. What about
Wellbeyond's post yesterday? That one just comes to
mind, but there have been others.

A couple of friends sent private notes expressing
similar feelings. It saddens me that the site has
become a downer for some rather than an uplifting
place to visit. But it makes me feel good to know
that our sensibilities have not become so dull that
we can not still be offended by ...ummm...things that
are abrasive and/or crude.

We are all different, but we are all human beings,
capable of displaying qualities like kindness,
goodness, love, long-suffering, mildness...the
greatest of these being love. You may still want to
leave. If you do, you will be missed because you
seem to be the kind of person the org needs to
help keep a balance.
The same can be said for others who have been offended
lately.

My signature used to be: "There is enough space for
all of us"...There still is.

This place is gettin' kinda spooky.

I've been at this site over five years and it's never been worse than it is right now. The PPML was allowed to slide and now this.

The moderators need to pass the reigns over to someone who'll give the site the time it needs to run smoothly...

"Glad To See You Go"

Gonna take a chance on her
one bullet in the cylinder
And in a moment of passion
get the glory like Charles Manson

Gonna smile, I'm gonna laugh
you're gonna get a blood bath
And in a moment of passion
get the glory like Charles Manson

You gotta go go go go goodbye
glad to see you go go go go goodbye

Now I know the score
I don't need you anymore
don't want you cause you're a bore

I need somebody good
I need a miracle
Should I take a chance on her?
one bullet in the cylinder

Gonna smile, I'm gonna laugh
they're gonna want my autograph
And in a moment of passion
get the glory like Charles Manson

You gotta go go go go goodbye
Glad to see you go go go go goodbye
Goodbye
