Darth, while I do appreciate you coming to my defense, it is not really necessary. It appears as though I have "pushed a button" or two on young Mr.Ward and I am now free to enjoy his self-destruction. It is good to know that I have friends on this site that are so concerned with my well-being. Thank you. You are a true friend.
There were a couple very legitimate points made by our disadvantaged, would-be adversary. I do consider myself "above" at least a certain percentage of those that frequent this site. I count Mr. Ward among that group. Additionally, while my mother is aware of my fondness for this site, I do not believe she has restricted me from it or expressed concern, as yet. I will have to ask.
Most interestingly, I fail to understand what my socio-political beliefs have to do with pointing out the shortcomings of a troublemaker? Conservative, Liberal, Moderate. There are losers in all groups, as we have witnessed. Apparently, the word liberal is frightening to some. While I have used it to describe people in the past, I have had liberals call me far worse! HA!!!!!!!!! Oh well! I cannot accurately say that is relevant. Of course, "hating" the Band is...apparently.
Finally Darth, you and I and the rest of the regular members should focus on what is really important here, the Band and our friendships as a result of the Band. Cretins come and go. We have no control over that aspect of the site. I will point out in summation that anyone can build up "ignores" against another. It has been done over and over by the past troublemakers, but only ONE person can make you a friend and that is really all that matters.
Now, if you do not mind, I shall return to my "lack of a life" and "blithering".......

You really are an ignorant s.o.b., aren't you? First off, since you ignored Freeze, let me explain a few things that you have also ignored in the 5 yrs you've been a member of this site:
1. Freeze is disabled. There is a Deep Freeze Well Wishers Thread that you might want to take the time to read through at your lesuire to gain some measure of understanding.
2. Freeze is older than you by a few years. Sorry, but I don't remember his exact age. Perhaps you can go ask him yourself in PM?
3. Lastly, DF is without a doubt, a staunch conservative (as am I btw).
As for my font size, if you don't like it, oh well. Back to work for me!

You’re a blithering idiot to say the least, and you act like you’re above everyone else. I gave my honest opinion about Judas Priest latest cd, you spout off and call me stupid amongst other things, you attacked me I didn't attack you. Your clearly a person that thinks they are the smartest in the room which is a clear indicator to me that you are in fact a liberal, you talk down to people that you don't agree with and you haven't the mannerism to debate anything, another clear indicator of a liberal.
You want to judge me by the amount of friends I have on this board, I have been a member of this board for 5 years and only have 1 friend and counting this post a total of 66 posts. That's an indicator that I actually have a real life and only post when I feel that it's relevant to the band. You on the other hand have been a member for 3 years and yet you have well over 15,000 post and you’re being ignored by 21 people, that's an indicator to me that you have no life to speak of, that's about 13 post a day. Does your mom know your on your computer that much? I mean I'm sure you don't spend all of your internet time on the Judas Priest board, get a job man and do something with your life...
Count me as #22 on your ignore list, your a waste of time and I'll need to reevaluate myself because I find very disturbing that I would actually have something in common with loser like you....

Liberal?!?!? ME???? My good, YOUNG, man!...I am so conservative I make YOU look like a "New Dealer"! HA!!!!!!!!!!! Global Warming???HAHAHAHAA!! Oh my! I should probably thank you for the laugh. I did need one! I have an upset stomach from the spotted owl I had for breakfast. Incredible! You are a mere 40 years old, yet you have managed to become so tremendously arrogant in that short period!?!?! Ah well, there is certainly no accounting for upbringing.
I fear we have let this spiral out of control. I stand by my opinion of you and your actions. If you choose to further debate, you can do so with yourself, or perhaps Darth would like a go at you.. You are condemned by your own words, not mine. I cannot imagine ANY scenario in which a person could go to a particular band's OFFICIAL website and declare, in their own words, that they "hate" them, and then not expect retribution. Worse yet, the faked indignance is really beneath a man of your alleged " years", is it not? You are "man" enough to say it, you should be "man" enough to admit it. But again, upbringing.
Finally, I expect that you will respond to me. It is the nature of the guilty to profess their innocence. As you no doubt have heard before, jails are full of innocent people. In any event, you are free to continue to do and say whatever you wish. I am sure you and your one friend will enjoy your time here with us. You must be incredibly proud.

"I think it is more than obvious that Mr. Ward is still craving attention. If you recall, he made inflammatory remarks many weeks ago and was called out on it then as well. This is not a person that anyone should consider a valid source of musical knowledge. We are not talking the R&D man at Sony here, people! This is a person that is simply looking for a reaction, and it appears there are many that are more than willing to oblige."
Or how about this part?
"Look, if the guy does not like the album, fine. He has every right to his opinion! I can accept that there are probably many more just like him in this world. However, you will note that most of them do not come here to the official site and bash on the Band. Clearly, we have an attention seeker on our hands. Worse yet, we are lending him credence by responding!"
Or how about this part when you call me stupid?
I know there are many of you that have been members of this site long enough to have seen this schtick more than once. I can remember some that were actually intelligent and presented an argument worthy of debate. I fear that is not the case with young Mr. Ward. Further discussion or counter-argument with this individual is the mental equivalent of debate with an Australian bushman regarding the intricasies of compound interest and bond investment. It is simply a waste of your time!
Why is it that you prefer for me to ignore you, but you couldn't find the restraint to do it yourself in the first place? Are you above being responded to? Let me guess you’re a liberal aren't you?
BTW, I'm 40 years old; you can save your speeches for your global warming POW WOW, and lets see the inflammatory remarks I made a few weeks ago.

Indeed. I fail to see how it is that you can even suggest that I have "attacked" you or anyone else for that matter. In fact, I clearly stated that you are entitled to your opinion of the new album, did I not? I could not care less if you have a "reaction" to me or not. I would quite prefer you ignore me. I see that you have been here five years and yet you have ONE friend?? It is no surprise.
I stand by my previous comments. Your remarks were NOT of a constructive nature but rather, they were meant to cause discord; at this point and time I can honestly say I hate Judas Priest. THAT is a musical opinion??? Perhaps you should spend a bit more time in class (or should have) to get a clearer understanding of the words we use in the English language? By any standard, you could certainly use a lesson or two in manners.
I do not believe that it was I who asked for you to "leave". I certainly do not care if you are here or you are not. As I have mentioned before, it is not up to me and your ilk have come and gone so many times I have lost count. But, when one comes to an OFFICIAL site and expresses "hate" for the site's subject, I tend to believe it is not about having an opinion or exercising ones right to speech. It is an overt attempt to grab attention or agitate. (I will give you a moment to look those up as well)
Say what you will. You have that right. But there is no need to be a liar in addition to being a boor.

Deep, I'm glad you’re the one everyone needs to look for to figure out who's who on the board. I don't do anything for a reaction; I posted what I thought about the cd and the singles that was previously released. It is you and Darth and a couple of others that attack someone for giving their honest opinion about the cd, it is you and they that try for a reaction. I never once called anyone a name or made a derogatory comment to or about anyone. I gave my honest opinion and because it wasn't a positive cool aid drinking opinion I am attacked for it.
I don't care what Judas Priest is trying to achieve with this cd, it sucks. I am one that likes music that is inspiring and entertaining, nothing in this cd is entertaining. I hate the guitar sound, I hate the guitar work, and I hate all the slow dragged out songs that sounds like the one before it. I don't like the vocals, it's a lame attempt at opera, and they are completely out of place. I don't like the cd and I don't need to leave the board because you or anyone else doesn't like what I say. If you and Darth can't handle what people say then it is you and he that needs to leave.
I am now, always have been, and always will be a Judas Priest fan, but I hate them for recording this cd and few others. Just because you write something that so completely different then anything anyone else has ever done, doesn't automatically make it something great. IMO they failed with this cd, if you or anyone else can't handle my opinion then TFB!
