If I had the money, I would travel the world for Priest, LOL! We've had some pretty decent metal acts in NZ recently, but the travel involved costs a lot within the country, especially while I didn't have a decent paying job till now.

| | | Becks wrote: | | Very true HRMG! People focus, when it comes to Maiden, on their 'awesome' stage show. It's not about their music anymore so much as Bruce wearing masks and hooning about on stage etc etc. Now I will definitely go see Maiden next time they are here - I've never seen them live - but Priest is my number one musical priority!

It's when that other band is ALL they talk about, until they are called out about why they are on the PRIEST board that is. If you aren't here for the right reason, meaning to celebrate THE MIGHTY PRIEST, then you shouldn't be here at all, IMO. I agree with Becks, I think Maiden's over inflated egos can't handle Priest being brought up. They have always been in competition with Priest since the beginning when Priest took them out on tour in the U.S. Back then, Maiden claimed they were going to "blow Priest off the stage". Yeah right, didn't happen then and it never will!

Hey, we have alot of freedoms here, such as the ability so say what we like, within reason, to talk about anyway we like as long as we don't aim foul words at someone else, if we do and the members find it rude it will be deleted, but it's just outlandish childishness to ban someone for speaking about another band. That said, is there one particular "maiden fan" I would like to see get banned? You bet 'cha! (Quoting Message by HOT ROCKIN' METAL GODDESS from Tuesday, April 06, 2010 2:54:37 PM)

AL-FONS BLAZING posted in the Brian_Evans thread that he once tried to talk about the might Priest on the Maiden board and got banned. I have no interest in being on the Maiden site and they aren't going to get any of my hard earned money until they EARN it!

Do you really get banned at the Maiden forum for bringing up Priest? I wouldn't know, I refuse to pay to use the forum there LOL!

Well, the things that Countessblahblahblah said SHOULD have gotten her banned completely, but it did not. The Countess is on my ignore list and if you are banned, it would say banned next to the name and it doesn't. So what exactly does Murray consider disgusting? That shit on Valentines Day her Countess said certainly was! And I would think that if you get banned from the Iron Maiden site for just bringing up Priest, you should get banned from this site for ONLY talking about Iron Maiden! It is a slap in the face to the Metal Gods. I really wonder what Priest thinks about some of this if they ever read some of these posts. I'm sure Rob sticks to the Q where they ban you for this kind of stuff!

In Murray's defense, I must say he is a good moderator if we choose to use him and report things. Unfortunately there is a thing known as free speech and since she said nothing out right disgusting, we really can't do anything about it. Until multi-accounts become a thing of the past, this will continue. I see our side of things very clearly, but just because someone says something we don't like does not lead to automatic expulsion. Probably a good thing too as we have all said things we may have regreted, just a shame some people abuse the right to free speech to their own means.

Hi Necro! I'm so glad to see you here again! No one gives a shit what that crazy woman says, we all know she lives in an alternate reality. No one blames you for what SHE does - it is all on her and her buddies. Come back and visit more often! Too bad there isn't a good moderator here, then she would be gone along with people that only post shit about Maiden!

| FFS! This is getting so lame - For a start i don't want to be here, nor do i care wtf anyone says about me (ur all entitled to ur opinion). LadyB - plz post any bollox in here (i don't appreciate e-mails - cos then no-one can read 'em, and i ain't as rude as u to post 'PM's'). Silly attitude - gone too far..just give it up. Feel free to hassle my friends too - am sure they can all stick up for themselves. I apologise profusely to the decent chatters here for seeming to bring this on - is why i don't frequent here often. (Yes LadyB - i 'lurk' here...to answer genuine PM's). TC all. Steve. |
