That doesn't erase the last 4 months.

And the last four months haven't erased the commitment he showed for thirty years.

Don't generalize new posters (actually 2008 and don't know what happened to log on, so tech. new) I have posted on a few other threads but unlike some I can't afford to max out my cc and follow them around the world. So I read, but don't post if nothing to add. (just counted, since back on eight diff. I left another page because everyone acted like spoiled little school girls and really hoped here was a bit more adult. Nothing really bothered me til you belittle "new" people. I've read here often and most often the disagreements seem tounge in cheekish. I'm a Richie junkie, but not drank anyones kool aid. What's so wrong with wanting to know the opinions on this drama? What's wrong with wanting to know if I missed something someone else saw? Actually have read a few posts who interpreted like I did - two sides, truth in the middle and lots of mistakes by all.

That's something that I really don't know, I was just saying that those new fans of Phil X are the worst ones, even than Jon's fans, they're that kind of psychopath people.

I'm tired of all this shit.

Richie, come back. Please. :cry:

Nah - not really belittling new people and I'm sorry if it came across that way. I have been here forever and have seen and welcomed lots of new people. I guess the entire tone of this thread has really degenerated (as opposed to being funny at the beginning), and the constant bickering between mostly new people is what has put me off.

Some people take this stuff so SERIOUSLY. As Twin Fan put it - it's a band folks not the solution to the universe. It's rock and roll and it's enjoyable, but to get to the point that you tweet to Richie that the rest of the band doesn't deserve him (or that he is too good for them) is ridiculous and laughable behavior.

Can I quote you? Oh, wait, I just did. ;)

It's fine, I was arguing with FA at my daughter's college and in a piss mood today, come here to escape my drama and just hit me wrong. Misery loves company, maybe that's why I'm stuck in Jovi land? Really do like knowing what others think, conclude - have my opinion but not in a trance. You can tell by my avitar where my heart is but I don't think I've acted 18, well since I was 18. Quite some time ago... have a beat driven day!

I'm guessing you're about 12.

I might act 12, but I'm actually 31.

But coming here just to bitch about two guys who you are supposedly a fan of, after 30 years or giving so much to the fans, and then claiming you don't care about anything to do with them, smacks of being a waste of everyone's time, including your own.

What are you getting out of this?

Can we not just stick to what we know? Or at least slip a few "if"s in there.

"If they've screwed over the fans deliberately by doing x, y, z, then they're unprofessional pricks" is fine by me.

Stating what you don't know as fact, just shows you as being very openly ignorant. And with a piss-poor attitude.

This thread stopped being funny a long time ago.
