Your points may be worthy of discussion - but on another day, though. Today is not about you.
but it's sometimes not easy for people to get this into their minds.
I did not make the other thread about ME. My original posts were my opinions on the Mick and L'Wren situation. When I was personally attacked for expressing those opinions others UNINTENTIONALLY made it about me.
I don't need a bunch of people I don't know on the internet talking about me to give me a false sense of importance.
Again, the INITIAL thread was not a condolence thread, it was a discussion thread about the news that she died. Two different matters.

Good for you.. This board is getting a bit like Pravda.."The Rolling Stones sound better than ever and steel production has broken all previous records"
If it turns out L'Wren has done it because of MJ's infidelities there will be one hell of a shitstorm heading his way. The knives will be well and truly out for the aging Lothario. Strange tho as i thought she was supposed to have cured him of his wandering eye. I guess we wont know unless she has left some sort of note. My condolences to her family and friends. Cue shitstorm coming MY way...

I missed your post 'about the blind item' so now you made me curious? This was about the MJ&LS relationship?
And oh yes I experienced it myself that some people here don't want to hear any other sounds but cheering...
Hi Dreamer:
Sad day, huh? The post the other day was about MJ/LS relationship PERHAPS. It was a blind item.
Just my 2 cents as an answer; I'm not Cindy C.

Well I count about 95% RIP posts in this thread. If that isn't a condulence thread - no matter what the title was, than I don't know.
Btw your constant use of capitals is not very nice and annoying. Think about it.

HA - I didn't even realized I used the caps. Yeah that is annoying, I agree.

I like the fact that people on this board do try to edit what they say so they get their point over but remain human and courteous, even when English is not their mother tongue.
As a newcomer I am impressed that there is humour even when people feel very strongly about stuff and if things become personally insulting with no humour, other board members appear to support those who are being "bullied".
Communities are never perfect but this seems a pretty good one !

My post about the blind item the other day got a similar reception, so I'm not completely convinced that the reaction was just because it was perhaps too soon to be making those comments. I think it's that some people just can't bear to hear bad things about Mick or the RSs.
But thank you!

It is sad that IORR has became a place where you can no longer freely express your opinions/thoughts relating to the Rolling Stones.
I think it is important to be able to discuss the good as well as the bad. It seems that having any negative opinions relating to them is simply taboo.
Regardless of whether the validity is deserved or not.
My opinions may not always be popular, but I should be able to express them as long as they are not off-topic.
Dear CindyC,
Thanks for changing your posts.
I totally agree with you "it is important to be able to discuss the good as well as the bad."
I just thought what you wanted to say you could have said with some other words since someone died. On a very bad moment in time for all people who knew her this was not good to read.
On that moment at that place we should not worry about our good or bad opinions; I think that is a valid exception.
Thank you again!

But dear Cindy, don't you know Mick and Keith and The Rolling Stones are true saints and infallible. So it's Nay To The Naysayers, Let The Stones Roll On. Sorry if that bothers you.

I would at this point place a 'cheers' emoticon, but it would seem quite out of place today, sadly.

Dear CindyC,
Good that we're ok to disagree around here, because I'd like to state my disagreement to your 'blind thread'. You took some information and made it about Mick and L'wren, just based on what you thought. Pure speculation...in the absence of any facts, really just gossip. It has absolutely nothing to do with us not wanting to hear bad news. If there is actual news, let's discuss it.
I don't think gossiping has any place here...so I'm disagreement with you on posting it. I should be as free to state that, as you feel you are to post it.
You can't have it both ways, and we both know that the decisions ultimately aren't made by either of us!
As for bandying about ideas, speculating on what happened on a sympathy thread, minutes after it goes up...I just thought that could be done elsewhere...timing is also a bit insensitive.
