Hey people. Don't let yourselves get aggrivated with eachother. I'm sure that in real life, you's would all get along fine. It's more difficult to make a point over the net because you don't have the body-language which makes conversation easy - not in the facial expressions or the voice.

There's no reason to be fighting amongst yourselves over what someone else did in another place. As people, we will NEVER agree on everything. But remember one important point... If everyone thought exactly the same way and shared exactly the same opinions, there would be no need for more than one. It's all of our feelings and opinions which make us different and a whole. So please, don't get mad at eachother!

When heated disagreements or discussions like this come about, please understand that there does NOT have to be a winner. Take control of your anger and settle the arguement the smart way. "We don't agree with eachother and let's just leave it at that." - How does that sound? You can both leave off as friends with an understanding that not all people will agree on all things... http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif

Amen to that, Sal! I have never seen such heated comments in here. C'mon guys it really isn't important why Skid Row and Baz parted ways. Both parties are still rockin. After the KISS tour, Skid Row plan to record a new album. Baz is planning on recording a new album and is making guest appearances on other peoples projects as well. That's what is important. Lots of bands lose members for various reasons, sometimes on very bad terms, but still rock on. All these guys are doing the same thing. And I'm sure they would want all their fans to move forward with them.Let's continue to listen to the songs that put them on the charts AND listen to their new stuff as well (perhaps being less critical when we do)!! Peace \/

Man I go away for a little while and ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE! What happened here!?!

Sorry Sal but I had to edit a post because of the name calling. I am a firm believer in freedom of speech but calling people names! That is not cool in my book. If you can't make your point without name calling something is wrong. I left a really great message board because the Administrator of that board wouldn't do anything to stop the name calling and the flame wars. Actually quite a few long time members left because of this.

Please no name calling OK? http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif

I hope I haven't overstepped my authority Sal? If I did I am sorry http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif

I'm sorry to anyone that I may have offended with my opinion. I believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and as I stated in a previous post....we can still be friends and agree to disagree. But, I think the name calling went a abit far. http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//eek.gif Just because someone doesn't have the same opinions, thoughts, or whatnot. What a boring world this would be if everyone thought the same way. So, come on peoples...don't take it personally when someone disagrees with you. It's not a slam on you, ok? Let's all be friends again, ok? (I just realized that I'm starting to sound like that cheerleader on Fast Times... http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//00hmph.gif ) Anyways. That's what I have to say.

Have a great day!

Hey, Not Man! Nope, you didn't overstep your boundaries.. You're an Administrator here (a BIG one). http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif Otherwise, nobody's in trouble or anything! We'd just like everyone to get along as nicely as possible so we've gotta 'address' things once in awhile. http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//tongue.gif We can all live with eachother! As wacky as we are... http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif

Howdy Ho =)
hehe... some how i feel a bit... hm..... I feel as i should write something here =)

Well most of the things said here I agree with however i think it's wrong stating you shouldn't get mad at eachother, I think the importance is not staying mad. However Jasper is a good person =)... and i mean sure i got a little aggrevated at first but i explained that in my last paragraph of the mess so nobody would be to offended.

I think what makes a good argument is when it has a bit hot klimax in the middle (hmm that sounded kind of filthy =) and then a mellow out in the end where as you say... everbody realized they disagreed and there is no point anymore.

I don't go out of any arguments being mad and i mean... come on =) it wasn't that bad.. i wasn't even close to being mad... just a little frustrated.

I also expected to be censoured since i know you americans are a little sensitive about you cuss words and i respect that =), just felt like it at the time. It wasn't like the whole message revolved around how stupid someone might be here on the board.

I think it's just helthy for this board to get a little wind in the sails i mean i feal more motivated to write if I'm arguing something hot rather than just agreeing (although that good too =)

anyway I agree that personal remarks has no business in an argument it just makes the arguer look stupid as history proves. I don't think that namecalling was a substantial part of the recent skid row discussion and any remarks i may have made i stand by, but also i explained in the message why i made them.

Anyway, keep on rocking!

Sal, Since I moderate that board, and the comments were directed at me, and nobody else, and I personally wasnt offended, that is the reason I didnt delete or edit the post. I didnt mean to let the board get out of hand, but I wasnt really sure if a whole lot of people were actually reading that thread, so I didnt become alarmed. Mudkicker and I may disagree, but there are no true hard feelings. This is the only place I know of that I had never seen any kind of flaming or serious arguing. I will do my part to ensure it stays that way from now on!

Well, I'm not offended by cursing. But, with all the ratings that go on here in the US, I like to keep this place as close to G or PG as I can. It's silly, I know. But no, cursing really doesn't offend me. And you're right, Jasper - the thread wasn't viewed by many people. So I hear ya. I'm sure Not Man did some sensoring in case any new passers-by came around.. When they do, we wouldn't want them to feel this is a place they could find enemies! http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif It was really no big deal, though. I know.. I just like keeping the peace. http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif

I wasn't offended but like I said in my previous post I wouldn't want to see this place go bad and I did what I felt I had to do to keep the peace.
It is sometimes very hard to post your thoughts and emotions on the Internet. Some people may take offense to a simple phrase that another person posted when didn't mean anything by it in the first place.

Everything is cool with me with Jasper and whoever else was in on that little "discussion" http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smilies//smile.gif
