Title: FALSE: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: nyd on April 10, 2007, 12:17:59 PM
Guns N Roses are asking fans for feedback in the Dont Damn Me section of mygnrforum.com

This is not from Guns N' Roses. /jarmo

Post by: MR W,AXL ROSE on April 10, 2007, 12:26:08 PM
the posters signature says this

We are not Guns N' Roses or Axl Rose, but a small group that works under the management of Guns N' Roses 2007/8 to promote and communicate with the true reason Guns N' Roses are still alive, the fans.

 could be real/could be bullshit  : ok:

Does GNR refer to themselves as

"New Gn'R 2007"?



Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: nyd on April 10, 2007, 12:28:13 PM
It is real. The username was reserved for this purpose. People have tried to register it in the past and it wouldn't work.


Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: chineseblues on April 10, 2007, 12:28:33 PM
If it was real, they would be asking here instead of mygnr.


Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: nyd on April 10, 2007, 12:31:52 PM
Why?

If it was posted here the topic would probably be locked and deleted  :rofl:

I agree that HTGTH is better than MYGNR. So is ChineseDemocracy.com for that matter. They will probably post on all of the sites.

It takes a while to start 20+ polls though

Can someone give me a brief explanation? What's this thread about?  ???


Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: chineseblues on April 10, 2007, 12:33:55 PM
Because anytime the band has anything to say it gets sent to Jarmo to post first. So if it was someone acting on GNR's behalf then they would come here to ask the questions. Afterall, the presales etc were all on the site too, not mygnr.


Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: nyd on April 10, 2007, 12:34:23 PM
They are setting up an official message board at gunsnroses.com - They just PM'ed me back after I asked if they would be posting here.

They are going to be posting here and at ChineseD.com  : ok: Give it a little while

It is signed by Guns N Roses, but the people who sent the message only work for Guns N Roses.

No wonder they dont ask for fans feedback. Youre all so fucking negative. After years of silence I cant blame you, but this is real so stop bitching and go fucking vote.

Sorry Jarmo  :hihi: I did say I prefer your site though  : ok:

Hey guys,

Over at MyGNRForum.com, GN'R's new management is posting messages. The latest one says that an official message board will soon be available at gunsnroses.com, and that we should keep checking back regularly to see if it's up.

They're finally listening to the fans, too, by making polls and reporting the answers back to the band I guess. About time!  ;D

Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: EstrangedReality on April 10, 2007, 12:58:01 PM
I don't think it's fake, simply because the username Guns N' Roses has been reserved and unavailable since the forum went online; he must have had to prove to the admin there that he was legit before they gave it to him.


Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: Tommie on April 10, 2007, 12:59:14 PM
Ok someone over there needs to confirm or deny this bullshit.  Thats one reason I'm glad we have Jarmo, if it is bullshit, he closes the floodgates.


Title: Re: GN'R management posting polls? Official forum coming?
Post by: Axlfreek on April 10, 2007, 01:00:20 PM
why would the gnr camp need feedback of a message board that they might put on the official site ?

they should know by now that if they build it, we will come.

The question is do we really need another forum where people can argue about why the album isn't out? How bout they spend some time by updating their site with actual tour dates, a discography with lyrics to the songs, a history of the band. You know, stuff that is actually important. ::)

Maybe the small group that works under 'the management of Guns N' Roses 2007/8' are not professional. No I haven't read it yet..

Have they got a management yet, to start with? ???

nothing negative about our not believing some unknown poster at the site we don't frequent.

Unless it's from the band and that proved true.

we're most positive about the band.

I'd expect that the mods would take some steps for verification too, rather than a "mass delete" (that would never happen).   So it'll take time.  Due diligence.

I doubt that it's legit. If nothing else, look at the polls they started - That's a lot of useless information on pointless subjects. And look at the formulation of the questions, hardly professional are they?

Indeed.

But i have to admit, fake or not, my heart did kind of skip a beat when i saw "don't cry or estranged on the next tour ?"

That's a great question and one that they definetly don't need to ask because everyone has been dying to hear those two songs on tour!

That "don't cry or estranged" question is why I think it's probably that site's twisted version of the BBF thing.

Maybe it's their version of the Bumblefoot thing? ?:confused:

yeah but the question is whose version it is?
and who are the management of GNR that this small group 'works under'?

I don't think its real.  I could be wrong, but if it were real, it would make alot more sense to post that on HTGTH, then another fan site.  All of the pre-sales were done through HTGTH, so management requesting fan info would make sense on this board, not another.  But its my opinion so who knows.

A forum on the official site would be pretty cool though.

I just logged onto the forum a few minutes ago.
This person sent me a pm, but did not provide enough proof to back up his claims. I've requested further specific details about his identity and contacts so that we can verify if he's legitimate or not - but so far, he has not responded.

Until he responds with the proof we requested, this and his other thread will be locked.

I don't understand this.  You said earlier in this thread you do not tolerate any threads or posts that claim something is officially stated by GNR unless they have some real proof.

Yet, you simply state "this is not from GN'R" and we are suppose to believe you?  What proof do you have?  If you contacted the band, or whoever is "official" that you contact, can't we see some sort of image or transcription of the messages exchanged?  I don't understand how you can say something without any proof or evidence and people are just suppose to automatically believe just because you run a fan message board....no cut down, just pointing it out.

My whole point was that Jarmo says not to provide information without proof.  Yet in the same thread he goes right on ahead and says it is not true (which is obviously correct) w/out giving a link or anything.  It's called hypocrisy.  It's also called an education...something you two need to get.

I doubt Jarmo meant you. He's simply saying that his "Not From GNR" post wasn't made so people would think he's cool, he made it so us (the gnr fans) wouldn't be duped by some crap running at mygnrforum

I think the poster chineseblues said it best on the first page of the thread when he called Bullshit for the simple fact that it was at MyGNR

What I want to know is, if this username was supposedly "held", than doesn't that mean the admins of MyGNR had to know the whole time what was going on? I'm guessing the username was never held at all, or possibly they forgot to "re-hold" it after the Boon Brothers incident last year. Either way, it's a shame this had to happen. Just proves once and again though, if it's not from htgth, don't hold your breath!
