Had contact with Rocky a few days ago ….
Basically said he was tired of fighting the negativity
that has seeped into IORR ….. still keeps an eye on us
all but at this stage has no real desire to post anything....
But give him time ...He's a good lad and I reckon
with a little gentle persuasion I can jimmy-bar him back....
Whilst I understand his need for a break, to cite negativity is hard to fathom. Not everyone is going to agree on everything. Not everyone agrees with me. Not everyone agrees with Rocky. And not everyone agrees with The Stones output, decisions, musicality etc.
Surely the purpose of a board IS to discuss. And sometimes discussion, by default I guess, can appear negative. It shouldn't. It's merely human nature that we don't agree on everything, apary from The Stones ARE and always will be THE greatest band in the world. But for all of us, they may have taken a different, slightly, path to that greatness. And THAT'S to discuss and healthily disagree and agree with.

Disagreement as such is not negativity, it's all a matter of how one puts an opinion into words. For instance, instead of "this or that is total sh*t" one could also say, "I am very disappointed in ..." and don't become personal.
I know that emotions sometimes can take over (we're all human after all), but the "preview" option helped me a lot (sometimes not using it made me regret it afterwards)
