MR

98% of people here are Augeri haters? Yeah, a lot of truth in that...

Make a choice - if you wish to continue to post here - then I do not expect to read any complaints about this site elsewhere. Have the balls to post those comments here.

And BTW - I am the moderator, so what's your issues?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all, I know you are the moderator and my post was directed to you. I have posted comments to the effect that this site is full of Augeri haters ON THIS SITE. Maybe not as direct as the post you are referring to but I HAVE. I admit 98% is too high a number as there are certain posters that do seem to dominate the site by thrashing anything positive posted about Steve A and belaboring the bullshit lyp-synch theory to death, etc. My issue is that you have allowed these posters to dominate the site, thrash Steve A endlessly and push the lyp-synch theory endlessly as if the guy was completely worthless- which is complete bullshit and you know it. The man worked his ass off for this band, did a fine job (I didn't say perfect!) for Journey for 8 years. He deserves respect and you have allowed certain posters here to disrespect him to unbelievable levels. You say you are a fan of his and will remain one but they why have you put no controls on these posters and allowed rampant lyp-synch rumors to be promoted with no REAL proof? Why have you allowed this and why do you continue allow this level of disrespect of Augeri? That's my issue Andrew.
So let's talk about who has the balls now...

Then why didn't you use your real name?
Why come here and extol Andrew's virtues as "Rich" and then thrash the man under the guise of somebody else?
You're not a man. You are a dickless coward.

Andrew has already addressed your feelings towards TapeGate.
When you characterized it as a rumor, he flat-out directly told you (and I quote), "Mmm....I wouldn't exactly describe that situation as you have just done. And for the record, it was more than just 1 delusional fan that was talking."
Don't you get it?
How much more obvious does the poor man have to make it for you?

My issue is that you have allowed these posters to dominate the site....and push the lyp-synch theory endlessly

While other false rumors are locked or deleted instantly.
Gee, I wonder why?

He deserves respect and you have allowed certain posters here to disrespect him to unbelievable levels.

Any artist that resorts to fakery obviously has no self-respect or respect for his craft.
So why should we?

Why have you allowed this and why do you continue allow this level of disrespect of Augeri? That's my issue Andrew.

Andrew has simply remained true to his own tenets and let truth flourish.
He will delete bullshit, but never the truth.
You fascist scuzz.

So let's talk about who has the balls now...

Considering you are fraudently posting under the nic of a girl, it obviously can't be you.

You're talking about Andrew censoring the board as opposed to moderating. Andrew lets people have their say on this board and steps in if it gets out of hand at his discretion. It's Andrew's baby and it's his decision as to how this site and forum is run. Andrew isn't the one bitching about Steve A, he's just allowing people to express an opinion. If he were to police this board like BT which is what you're suggesting, the board would suffocate. To be fair, he has pulled people up on what they've said plenty of times.

As for the lyp synching "rumours". Look, let's kill this one dead right now. Playback of previously recorded vocal tracks were pumped to the band through the monitors and out to the audience at certain points on the band's last dates with Steve. End of story. Blackie Lawless has been doing it for years with WASP.

Dude, Why to you waste your time here. Why spend your time in a "98% SA hater zone" as you call this board. Go to the 100% SA lover zone and wiggle your ass off.

The "lyp-synch theory" as you call it, is not a theory. Are you a true idiot?

Andrew, get this guy the fuck out of here.

Show me where I didn't use my real name at ANY time you COMPLETE PIECE OF SHIT. And show me where I am posting under the nic of a girl... again, YOU COMPLETE PIECE OF SHIT. Unlike others who post here and at BT, I use the SAME username. Everything YOU say is SHIT and ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Why? BECAUSE YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU POST ARE A TOTAL PIECE OF SHIT. GET IT SHITHEAD? STILL waiting for something intelligent from you.....

This is Andrew's site and he can run it however he
sees fit, do you expect him to spend all his time
deleting threads and putting certain members on
holiday?.
None of us have to pay to post here and if we did
I imagine things would be even more troublesome
for him, everyone would want him to be in here
constantly.
He is the only one that moderates this forum and
he has stated continually why that is.
Why don't you go waste some of your precious time
and search out why he does it that way.
Bottom line is, if your gonna come in here trying
to sling mud at Wombat your gonna get a whole
pack of us slinging at you.
We respect the job Andrew has done and the
efforts he puts into this place for ALL of us to enjoy
if you don't enjoy it then just get!

Are you one of the true idiots here that cannot provide ANY REAL proof Dude? Until then, it is only a theory promoted by you Augeri haters. Look at the fucking pic you have in your profile of the guy you are wanting to take over as the lead. Can anyone really take the guy seriously as the lead singer of Journey? Let's get real. Give me a fucking break.... Andrew can ban me, delete me, whatever the fuck he wants to do. How can anyone take the bullshit theories promoted by you Augeri haters seriously? You are all one big fucking joke!

AGAIN, IF YOU HATE THIS PLACE SO MUCH. GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.

Damn. Against my better judgement, here I go again. Saying 98% of the people here are Augeri haters is BS. I do not hate him or anyone else. Just don't like what he and the band did. I think there are many who feel the same way here. Life and Journey go on. I have seen him live, heard him on cd, and enjoyed it all. I am just excited even more now with JSS on board. I can say that easily because I have seen JSS with them twice already. As I have said, best concert I have seen live ever. PERIOD. None other even close. I wish Augeri and his family the best. Some people on here who wish death, illness, or any other kind of tragedy on anyone else needs help. PERIOD. I have worked in healthcare my entire adult life, and though we joke about things sometimes to keep from going fucking crazy, that is ENTIRELY over the line. You threaten violence or death on someone, whether on an internet board or face to face, should have charges pressed against you and prosecuted as far as I am concerned. Also having a degree in Criminal Justice, I don't believe there is any difference how you do it, it is still A CRIME.

As far as alcohol. I love my beer as much as the next guy, but I will also admit that you should never try to post, converse, drive, or anything else with more than a couple of beers on board. Nothing good is going to come of it. EVER. Use some freakin common sense. That is also no excuse for bad behavior as far as I'm concerned. You get what you ask for. We are all adults here.

Saying JSS does not fit in because he cusses? I almost pissed myself when I read that. Sorry, I said pissed. I can assure you he is not the only member that cusses. He would probably get a kick out of that one as well. It is 2006, and people do it. It does not make him Lucifer because he spouts an F bomb occasionally. I do it several times a day, as consider myself as upstanding as anyone else. PLEASE.

Using another board to bash this one would piss me off too if it were mine and the person had the guts to come back over here and post. Some here should be happy Andrew is as nice as he is. Some continue to push the envelope. But, sooner or later as the old saying goes, "you mess with the bull you eventually get the horns."

I am as impatient as the next person over the news, but I am not going to start showing my ass because of it. Andrew, Jeff, the rest of the band, and everyone else is aggravated I'm sure. Everyone has to get through it, and according to Andrew, it sounds to be almost over. Hopefully noone will be charged with murder before it happens.

LETS ALL CHILL AND TALK JOURNEY.

When you posted as Ecliptic_Journey you signed your posts as "Rich" and also feigned a very neutral writing style.
As Journeyinto2001 you write in a manic hostile manner and most here assumed you were a girl.
Do you change your wardrobe to hosiery with garter belts when you switch sns?
Boy, I bet that really makes Tickner's mustache bristle with excitement.

Unlike others who post here and at BT, I use the SAME username.

Then why aren't you posting as Ecliptic_Journey?
Why as Ecliptic_Journey do you show support for a Jeff-fronted Journey and then under Journeyinto2001 vent your true feelings?
We know you're partial to Steve Augeri.
His firing (yes, that's what it was) has gotten you so seething pissed your apt to hack your whole family to pieces.
I love it.

Everything YOU say is SHIT and ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Why? BECAUSE YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU POST ARE A TOTAL PIECE OF SHIT. GET IT SHITHEAD? STILL waiting for something intelligent from you.....

Why don't you post this way at BT, Rich?
Aren't you the first to take people to task for being the slightest bit off-color?
You are a fake - just like your red leather enswothed idol.

Like I said in the other thread over there, I am not an Augeri hater. Do not, and I will say this once again, lump me into that. You do not speak, nor will ever, speak for me. You started a thread over there, which part of it resorted into bashing of this site, which CJ had every right to lock.

Andrew is a great guy. He allows freedom of speech here. If it gets too out of hand, he deals with it. As for Tapegate, there was more than just people on here who caught on to it. If you don't believe it, that is fine. That is your right, but others who have done research, etc, do believe in it, and they are entitled to have their say about it. My advice to you on this is if you don't like what is being said, skip the post/thread !

If you want a more controlled board, maybe you would be happier at another board.

If I were a girl, I probably wouldn't cuss like a sailor in my posts to you okay rocket scientist? Don't ASSume! Andrew, please clarify to this COMPLETE IDIOT that I do NOT post as Rich or Ecliptic Journey. I know you can verify this. This guy is a complete douchebag....

Sorry folks. I dida full IP trace and this is not Rich posting. Can't say I agree with much they have to say and their adgenda is identical to that of Rich and I'm not sure why they post here at all - but it is NOT Rich Meyers IP address after all.

Sorry TNC, the IP address was very close, but actually comes from the otherside of the country. I remain cautious though, as the adgenda's being pushed are identical.

Oh well, not Rich. I don't think he'll be coming back to MR, but I could be wrong. The agendas are getting old. I'm so tired of people spewing garbage, all of them!!
