It's like playing a game in the car during a long road trip - a diversion to help pass the time.

If that was true im quite sure the car would have brokendown or drove of into a ditch by now

I understand that some people might find it stupid how certain fans are so dedicated that they'll always defend their idol.
But that's just the way it is. I don't understand how pointing it out to them is going to change anything.
I think it would be really boring if everyone was the same....

Jarmo,
I don't want to be a pain in the ass, since I respect that this is your board and you can make the rules, but I want say that I wasn't pointing out the obsession to the obsesser, but rather just to Axelrod.
And, for what it's worth, what Axelrod was trying to say, I think, is that many posters on this board have stepped way, way beyond the normal boundries of fandom and into the creepy realm of obsession. You used the word "idol" in your post. I am a fan of many authors, musicians and a few sports teams (Go Blue!) but I do not idolize any of them. Idolizing is not a particularly healthy pasttime.
What makes all this relevant is that since many of the intelligent posters this board once had have moved on and we are left with a disproportionate amount of idolizing obsessers, it's become increasingly difficult to have a fair, rational, intelligent discussion about anything. You're obviously a smart guy and I don't imagine you want this board to become an endless list of incoherent threads about how wonderful Axl is and how perfect every decision he makes is.
In short, I think the future quality of this board is at stake when minority opinion holders (including Axelrod and myself) get attacked and eventually chased off by the throng of irrational worshippers who can't stand the idea of anyone disagreeing. At the very least, Axelrod was polite, and that makes it worth consideration.
This is, overall, a great community you've got here, Jarmo. It's just getting rough to have a dissenting opinion.
So true...

If people are leaving because they're tired of discussing the band with people with a different opinion, there's not much I can do about that.
That's a nice way to put it...
A more accurate way to put it would be... people are leaving due to the hordes of Axl worshippers that are allowed to run rampant on this site attacking anything and everything that has any sort of criticism for their idol.
But, whatever...

Axl can keep sitting on his hands...watching butterflies in his backyard....whatever it is he does in his monastery....never taking any action or releasing C.D....and bandmembers can keep getting fed up with Axl and quitting...and Axl can keep using these "personnel changes"....and finding replacements...as the reason to keep putting the album on hold.
Judging by the (disturbingly!) high number of people who actually blamed Bucket for the Rio cancellation...this type of excuse should keep Axl in the good graces of Here Today board members for years to come. Nothing is ever Axl's fault to begin with....and how much more so is this true when a bandmember "quits" on poor Axl...throwing a wrench into his C.D. release machinery.
Here are some news flashes from the years to come:
2005 -- Finck quits GnR...tired of Axl not ever putting his money where his mouth is and releasing C.D. Axl blames Finck in a press release...says that readjustments must now be made to the band and to C.D....and C.D. will be delayed again. Consequently, "Fuck you, Finck!!" reverberates across the Here Today forum. Forum members berate Finck as a talentless goth reject...claim his image never fit into GnR in the first place...and claim he had no loyalty to Axl and GnR...and that he only used GnR to promote his solo career.
2006 -- Tommy Stinson quits GnR....tired of Axl not ever putting his money where his mouth is and releasing C.D. Axl blames Stinson in a press release...says that readjustments must now be made to the band and to C.D...and C.D. will be delayed, again. Consequently, "Fuck you, Tommy" reverberates across the Here Today forum. Forum members berate Tommy as a talentless has-been...claim that he had no loyalty to Axl or GnR...and that he used GnR to promote his solo career.
2008 -- ______ _______, Robin Finck's replacement in GnR, quits the band....tired of Axl not ever putting his money where his mouth is and releasing C.D. Axl blames ______ _______ in a press release...says that readjustments must now be made to the band and to C.D...and C.D. will be delayed again. In the press release...Axl says he "hopes" to announce the release date for C.D. "in a few months." "Fuck you, _____ _______" reverberates across the Here Today forum.
2010 --
2011 --
................
............................
2025 -- Axl Rose, of Guns N Roses fame...found dead at his mansion in Malibu....cause unknown...although it is alleged that Rose may have suffered heart failure as a result to get in shape for his follow-up to the aborted Guns N Roses tour of 2002. Although he promised the album numerous times....Rose never succeeded in releasing Chinese Democracy....the long-awaited follow-up to the Use Your Illusion albums, released in the early 90s. At Rose's request, his tombstone will be emblazoned with the following statement:
"At every turn, my hired bandmates hindered the release of Chinese Democracy. How was I ever supposed to release this album when I had a bandmember up-and-quitting on me every several years?"
Rose's funeral will be held on Saturday, a small, private ceremony, attended mostly by family members and several old friends from the music industry. At Rose's request...none of his former bandmates shall be allowed to attend the ceremony.
Interscope has plans to locate the master copies of the songs that were to appear on Chinese Democracy. Axl has heavily guarded these recordings...their location is a mystery....although they are rumored to be located in a vault in Eastern Europe or Russia. Once the songs are located....Interscope plans to release the album to the public, although "soon" isn't the word.
Fans interested in following the Chinese Democracy saga are advised to stay tuned to gnronline.com...which is promising to have announcements and developments on the story....coming soon.
I hope axl finds you and just pops you one in the face. That is the gayest thing I have ever read, you melodramatic piece of shit.

I hope Axl never read this.
I understand if he get angry. I would.
I would be crazy when people talk about me and think all kind of things about me all the time.

It's just a joke.
It has given many of you an excuse to spend time reading it!
