Title: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: Communist China on February 01, 2007, 11:35:44 PM I know she has connections to the band but the rules are the rules, or so we're told. She openly insults and attack members, and I just don't she why who she is makes that okay. Just seems a little hypocritical to me.
Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: Robman? on February 01, 2007, 11:48:12 PM I think some assume that her actions are justified.
I'm not saying if i agree or not. Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: Jim Bob on February 02, 2007, 12:39:04 AM where has she insulted anyone? quotes?
i've seen her post debunking rumors or telling people they are wrong. she would certainly know more than anyone of us here. I'm glad shes around. I dont blame how upset she gets at some of these people who act like because they are a guns n roses fan that Axl Rose should do everything thing on THEIR time the way THEY want. It doesn't work that way. Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: supaplex on February 02, 2007, 02:51:07 AM yeah, give beta some karma. because if i see a "-1" under her username i will feel better about her posts :hihi:
some people here are just... :nervous: so beta takes the time to write here and you feel offended? yeah, maybe she's not that calm in her posts but can you blame her? she's been with axl and gnr so long that that's part of her family. how would you react if someone talks shit about your family? be grateful she's here Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma?

This thread (http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/board/index.php?topic=40516.msg822649#msg822649) springs to mind. Without taking sides, I do feel sorry that Minneapolisnewsman decided to quit on us in the aftermath, he was a very active poster and seemed genuinely excited about the band touring again.

Without taking sides, I do feel sorry that Minneapolisnewsman decided to quit on us in the aftermath, he was a very active poster and seemed genuinely excited about the band touring again. I dont see any insult there. He was talking out of his ass without knowing the facts, and she only called him on it. If you can't handle the fire stay out of the kitchen, as the saying goes.

Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: Communist China on February 02, 2007, 11:08:33 AM ^ Thanx for the explanation. I just thought that needed to be said if it was the case.
Four legs good, Two legs better. Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: jarmo on February 02, 2007, 11:10:33 AM If you can't handle being corrected, then maybe you shouldn't post bullshit speculation in the first place.
Or keep your narrow minded opinions to yourself if you can't handle being set straight. /jarmo Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: sjgotnitro on February 02, 2007, 11:10:48 AM Look at it like family, we are all part of it sort of.
She is the mother figure to the band or atleast Axl. So that being said if you walked down the street would you tell a mother something negative about her son, maybe you would but how would she react to it. Any mother or family member for that matter would fight till the end defending or protecting there own. We might not all agree with what happens in the GNR world, but as humans we should understand human nature. :peace: If Axl would actually post here what do you think he would say about the crap that is said. He would call most on here double jive mother fuckers ?:hihi: Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma?

Post by: journey on February 02, 2007, 01:12:48 PM I guess it's unbearable to read some of the negative comments. It has to be emotionally exhausting to see someone you care about get verbally attacked and unfairly judged almost everyday.
It's easy for people to sit around and say, "why didn't they do things this way or that way". But no one can understand the pressures of touring and recording an album - an album that is in high demand with even higher expectations. Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma?

It's easy to point fingers, but the truth is, none of us are in her position. Leaves us in the dark? Wow, I thought you knew by now how things work. I guess you want GN'R to be something they're not. /jarmo Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: Communist China on February 02, 2007, 02:35:58 PM I'm not asking beta to be disallowed her opinon, and I respect the frustrations that come with her position in GN'R, but she could 'correct' people without calling their comments 'shitty'.
Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: Mauve_All on February 02, 2007, 02:46:44 PM Fair or unfair, Beta's got an attitude, that's what I get from reading her posts. A little modesty wouldn't hurt her or anybody else for that matter.
Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: the dirt on February 02, 2007, 03:27:27 PM Leaves us in the dark? Wow, I thought you knew by now how things work.

Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: misterID on February 02, 2007, 03:43:58 PM You have to admit her posts are pretty funny :hihi:

Post by: 2007what! on February 02, 2007, 08:26:01 PM beta is a close personal friend of axl's, i would pissed too if people at a message board constantly talked shit and spread untrue rumour about one of my best friends. this karma shit is overrated anyway, it's just a number, why do you people care so much about it? don't you have things that matter more in your lives?

Any fan of the band would love to know more, that's a given. We ALL want the album, we ALL are anxious to see our favorite band back in action and actively kicking ass once again, as they've already started doing over the past year. However, the truth is, the band doesn't owe us anything in terms of explanations and updates right now. If they want to, I'm grateful for any new info, but if not, we have no real right to hold it against them... Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: CheapJon on February 03, 2007, 08:56:06 AM Beta is a gift and a heroine. How anybody can whine about her is beyond me :no:
Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: norway on February 03, 2007, 09:51:41 AM Kinda hard to put beta in the same standard as other posters in terms of expectations and reactions-
- i don't think she would get bad karma if she curse on the forum or similar like anyone else would get, but not saying thats a bad thing since i feel it's a little like "special member" or something :P She get special treatment, We get inside info-stuff So win win imo :peace: Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma?

That is very true. And it's why we have speculation. Beta seems to expect us to sit patiently saying, 'Gee, isn't this great?' but as long as their is silence from GN'R there will be lots of speculation, and she shouldn't get to call our ideas 'shitty' just because we aren't always satisfied with silence. Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: journey on February 03, 2007, 12:55:43 PM she shouldn't get to call our ideas 'shitty' just because we aren't always satisfied with silence. In her defense, she wasn't calling anyone's ideas 'shitty'. Someone had posted that the South African venue was the 'shittiest'. She was just countering what that person said.

Beta is more than a poster. She is Axl's nanny or something. Title: Re: Why doesn't beta have negative karma? Post by: EFISH on February 04, 2007, 05:33:12 PM To be exact, she's Axl's personal assisant from back in the Seymour years. She's like a mother to Axl and to all of Guns N' Roses. :)
