Site Announcement: Ban On MJ/Jacksons Related Threads [FYI--Thanks to Mars23 for the Joke-sos]

After much discussion and review, it has been decided to re-enforce the subject of Prince at prince.org.

To that end, we are announcing today April 1, 2008, a moratorium on all Michael Jackson and Jackson related threads.

Through the decades there has been a healthy debate among fans about which is the better artist, dancer, nose, etc...

It is our belief now that the question has been answered and it is clearly Prince.

Since the discussion of an artist with no remaining cultural relevance does nothing to forward the cause of Prince, prince.org will now be an MJ, Janet, Tito, Jermaine, Randy, and even Latoya free zone. Threads about Joe Jackson will be allowed, but only in reference to the slapping scene in Purple Rain and if he could have done it better.

Thank you to all the MJ fans who have contributed. Feel free to start talking about Prince.

How great would it be that the mods felt righteous indignation and locked deleted all MJ threads for a couple weeks to lend credence to the thread? biggrin

I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

this had to be a joke.....'cause in certain instances you ban what you feel threatened by.....and if you're gonna ban Mj then you would have to ban Madonna and all the other artist who people on this board are insanely obsesed by!

Today I heard a Hillary Clionton campaign song that used the karaoke track of ABC and a MJ sound alike singing, "...easy as ABC, 123, Hill-ary.

There was another one that sounded like I want You Back too.
