That said, "disabuse" is not a word in the current English lexicon. Just trying to help if you, indeed, want to better your language skills.

Wonder why B.E. never brought up the duet effort of Halford and Dickenson? He would have to compare the two? Actually ask questions in his blind allegeance to Bruce? Could it be that B. E. is none other than that same fool who made Numero Uno. Blind devotion to anything by that one person. Boring. I stand by my belief of last night. This is no real person who made this thread.
As for Grammer, I'll leave that to you guys, as I'm not illiterate, I'm certainly no linguist. lol

Honestly Nick, I am of the opinion that you simply cannot legislate decency. It is really a matter of personal choice. On one hand, I am very much in agreement that we need to display manners and courtesy when exchanging ideas. On the other hand, there are those that would come here with the sole desire to commit malfeasance. They are simply looking for trouble as a means of some sort of twisted amusement.
I do not know Mr. Evans personally, however, it is clear that he is NOT interested in being part of our family. Perhaps he is a loner? Perhaps he is a troublemaker. Either way, while he is entitled to an opinion, direct confrontation for the sake of amusement OR to make one's point are one in the same. He purposely posts things that are intended to stir controversy. There is no humility in his comments. There is antagonism. THAT is where the problem lies, my friend.

Sorry to dissapoint. All me talking and I say that the vid was like a Stephen King novel. Good in the old days but, like Maiden, he learned a formula (starting a chapter with a song lyric) and it got dull. Same goes here. A crowd doesn't mean good music to me nor will anything you say. Leave it at that, eh? I didn't like it.

You see fanboy its not only me who thinks your a nut,yes you have your opinions and are entitled to them,but your opinion about Iron Maiden is invalid dude,you mean absolutely nothing when it comes to Iron Maiden...you think Bruce would be thrilled to hear you like every single Iron Maiden song he has done? Fuck no,he would look at you like "whos this fuckin fanboy geek" and thats the truth.
You ask spapad and Guido to "leave the thread"?? HAHA are you fucking kidding me? Guido a member thats been here since 2005 and your new-coming ass asks him to leave? You are more stupid than I thought dork. As I've said and Guido and spa have said,since you can't name one song by Bruce in Iron Maiden that you don't like,your opinions do not mean anything we never said you couldn't have this opinion did we? No. But it makes you a fanboy dude...you are on the internet,not in person,nobody here knows you as a person so when you put these opinions out there like "Everything Bruce has done is all good...every one of his songs" people turn thier heads and think "geeze another fuckin fanboy" because they can't get an opinion from you about anything because you like it all!!
Go ahead and love your Iron Maiden with Bruce every song but do not recomend any albums from Iron Maiden to anyone because your opinion sucks dude,its not valid at all,its a fanboy's opinion from everybody's eyes that reads it. I created a Saxon thread and has anybody mocked it? No.Why? Because its not a thread of fanboy worship its a thread of Saxon that deserves to be here,an Iron Maiden thread deserves to be here too but the way your doing it is not the right way to go about it,you think that if I was like you with Saxon claiming every song they did to be 100% top notch and all this bullshit people wouldn't slander it?
Of course they would,but I am not a "fan-boy" of any band.I love Saxon they are my #2 fav.heavy metal band but they have "shit songs" and "shit albums"...they have 18 studio albums and 12 of them are good,4 of them fucking suck and 2 of them half suck,the other 12 that are good have only like 2 bad songs on each album except for Lionheart and The Inner Sanctum where I actually like every track off each album...very rare.But at least I have an opinon of Saxon....if I were like you I would be telling everybody..."just get any Saxon album it doesn't matter wich one just get any one of them and its 100% awsome"....now how is that guiding somebody towards Saxon?
Its not,its a false representation of Saxon's disography and if I were like that those people who picked up a Saxon album like Innocence Is No Excuse would be thinking: "This shit ain't that great"?? Theres at least 90% of fans by all genre's that critisize thier favorite band's disorgraphy the other 10% who think everything is great are people like you "fanboys". You want to cellebrate Iron Maiden in this thread,go right ahead,but keep claiming that everything they do has golden balls hanging off it...your just going to get ridiculed and rightfully so.I'm here to stay,been here since January 1st 2005,you think I'm going anywhere boy? Now pipe your shit down a notch and shut your mouth and things may not get worse for you in here.Watch it guy.

I and others have asked you in a very nice way to not flood the PRIEST site with Maiden crap that we can all Wiki if we wanted. You didn't comply. GoodbyE to you. Never once did I belive you were the true Brian that I knew long ago and your actions now prove it. You will not / cannot give me a single word that you are the same person even if you made up the ID.
Public forum. No hard feelings. Now it is just us two? What happened to J.D. speaking for me? Others that have spoken out against you contaminating the site with garbage that we can find with a two second Wiki search? Not a single positive word about Priest?!? Not a single negative word against Bruce with Maiden?
