What do you think about a official forum on gunsnroses.com?

[Dickeye]

gunsnroses.com should link this forum

That would be the best idea.

gunsnroses.com should link this forum

That would be the best idea.

gunsnroses.com should link this forum

No doubt! Jarmo deserves a lot of praise for building this forum over 10 years . . . This is the place to go if you are a GNR fan. I would hope GNR would continue to support this forum as well. Judging from Merck's latest post, he agrees.

I second that....abso-fuckin-lutly!!

i guess the internet was never gn?r?s strongest side and highest priority anyway

Why? Axl said he loves it, he gets infos about what's going on in his own band from here, he said it himself...
 
I read the internet, i know what's going on

At the very least, this forum should be linked on the main site

I don't think that they should link this forum.. actually I HOPE they wont. And they wouldn't. This forum would turn into another version of MyGn'R.. useless people posting useless stuff thread after thread. I wanna keep this as HTGTH, not "official Gn'R forum".

[Chief]

it would be unneccesary.  it would create more headache for someone to moderate there and we already have too many other forums.  gnronline forum became a big mess.....!

How so?

HTGTH is the most well known G&R forum already, and it hasn't turned into MYGNR. So why would it?

MyGNR is the shithole it is, because they've got a couple of fucking dumbasses running it, who aren't GN'R fans.

MyGNR is a complete front to make money off of internet adverts, and because of lack of leadership, that's the reason it's spam-central.

HTGTH is the only 'big one' that gets it right, because the iron fists keeps the trolls in line.

Sure, it irritates me too when some of my replies get canned for whatever reason, when I thought they were granted to begin with. But it isn't my board. And I know that if it was deleted, they did it for good reason, not be assholes like so many chastise them for.

But i'm sure, because I just said that, then i'm a nazi right? I'm an ass kisser right? Fuck that. It's none of the above. It's the truth. I've seen many boards in my day run by nazis, and run by jerks, and assholes. HTGTH is DEFINITELY not one of them, and never will be.

Linking this forum to the main site, will only solidify it's official status, because we all already know it's unofficially the official board, and is run as such.

*End rant*

If you can't see the difference between HTGTH and MyGn'R you must be blind.

Doesn't anyone here remember what it was like last time Gn'R had an offical forum? *cough*gnronline*cough*..  Things didn't go so well.

Still, I'd like to see an offical forum on gunsnroses.com, but IMO it'd make most sence if it linked here.  A new one would be cool as well though.

[grog mug]

They've already tried the "official" forum route...obviously didn't work.  Just keep it un-official so almost anything goes, just the way everyone likes it.

[AdZ]

This isn't the place to insult other forums or post "X is better than Y because... if you want to do that, go somewhere else.


We don't go for that sort of thing here.

When was this, and was it popular?

[Scree]

after the message from merck and axl...i think all the forumspeculations mean that we want more infos directly from the band and management...wouldnt it be better when they design a forum on their official site? or just link it to htgth?

hey, dear managment and axl,
we just wanna get more love and infos when there are difficult threads in the internat. gnr-boards

cheers

No and I don't think there should be any official forum. They tried that before and they failed. With the influx of fans after CD is released there'll be too many to keep track of and moderate at any one time. As much as you like or hate the mods here, there simply isn't enough of them at the minute to cover that and it'd be a mess. This forum as it is is controllable from a mod standpoint.

Besides there's a reason there isn't an official one... last time people where posting Axls social security number as well as adress and other personal info. The forum became a security risk for Axl personally. On top of that all the bitching, moaning and general fuckheadery made it unenjoyable and more and more spam posts where there. Even when they brought it back "secretly" for a while a few years back, the same things where happening.

[Dr. Blutarsky]

Since the other band members have their own sites, what about Axl?

He has gunsnroses.com... He IS Guns N' Roses!!!!

Agree with you on that one to an extent. The other guys bring a lot to the table, Axl did not write the new material alone. But GNR is Axl's vision.

Around the time Live Era came out, and yea it was pretty populair, until it got shut down and everyone had to go running to another forum!

Why was it shut down?


 

[Chief]

I'm pretty sure it was because someone posted Axl's personal info on there.
