The fact that I only find a handful of your full-on-attacks to be justified takes away a lot of the fun, no matter how funny some of the other comments are.
Cause they are morons . I thought his work was brillant . I wont really get into it . cause its not worth it . Its just a sad bunch of people over there . Im glad im not part of it. Most of them over there really dont have a mind for themselves and think in first gear . Im sorry its my opinion and ill always stay with it ...as a few of them over there I as well fan wise are " older than dirt" and I knew these pups when I was just a kid and they were old in their late 20s in the 80s , the older they get the sadder it gets .

Brillant work though.
you may now feel free to knock one of the most hated people here and in backstage ......ME
JMO and TY

Meh, had the potential to be funny I guess, but its not particularly satirical, just comes across as a tad whiny

Post Why the vitriol and bile?

well done Supersonic, after a while of just viewing this site and forums I feel compelled to write something.

Im split into two parts about this thread, one part thinks thats its really funny, and another thinks that you are an extremely petty and sad individual with a chip a mile wide on your shoulder, thats seriously unbalancing your outlook on life.

Im not hear to slag you off, im not even interested in entering into dialogue with you (as im pretty convinced it wouldnt be one, it would prob just degenerate into a shouting/slagging match and I really cant be bothered)

Therefore ill just say my piece and leave it at that I suppose.

My concern is that you even felt the need to create a page that criticises and degenerates people who are expressing an opinion with such poisoned vitriol (which, like i said a part of me found funny, dunno what that says about me!) All these people are doing is expressing an opinion (not the best formed or expressed Ill admit, and in some cases not even their own as you so crushingly pointed out to them) but is it really necessary to do so in such an abusive and violent manner? I can appreciate the fact that you are obv frustrated about the standard of writing/ posting on this forum and the lack of reasoned arguments. This is, however, a common issue on the vast majority of forums on the net and not one isolated to this site.

As stated before, you do have some valid points, BUT there is a fine line between abuse and satire, you, unfortunately trampled all over that line and why I feel the need to write this.

By all means make your points, all I ask is that you phrase them so you are actually making a point that people can relate to, not cloaking the words with a tone full of bile which sometimes makes them unreadable, and even boring after a while.

Pretty soon a lot of people will lose respect for your opinions and views and stop reading your posts (although some people, I admit, will continue reading as they love your style) which would be a shame as you have some interesting things to say, but what would be the point of posting if most people wont read it?

Anyway, to summarise. Im not saying to you that you should stop posting, just temper the tone of your posts so that most people would WANT to read them, nothing wrong with being self-opinionated, but there is potentially something seriously wrong when the only form of self-expression is venom and bile.

Just think about it and dont dismiss it out of hand.

Well, whatever people say about Seb - people are obviously talking about this at backstage and care what he has to say ;] because users are joining the site just to reply to this topic.

Yep. It's funny how people who "don't care what he has to say" suddenly feel the need to register and reply to a post like that just because they have nothing to say. Ahh, backstagers never fail.

Hehe, yes. Especially when they feel the need to be handing out some 'useful' advice.

For someone who hates backstage so much, Seb took a lot of time to go there, read the posts, scan them, create a website, and make fun of them. Seems like a lot of time spent accomplishing nothing. But whatever. To each his own, I guess.

Edited to say: I did find his site marginally funny.

Why do you read backstage if it winds you up ?

Those messages are the first backstage messages Ive read in such a long time . I've read much worse messages in the past.... which is why I stopped visiting there , as a fan I wanted my freedom fo speech which is why Im here. I understand why a business (BON JOVI) have to strictly moderate what is written... guess there are all different types of fans and different boards for all sorts. Im pleased we have that choice.

You know how I feel about swearing...... Lets make it baby was funny though... and so was the bit about Jon farting ....

Welcome back Seb....

Dawn
