Why the HTGTH board isn't 100% dedicated to GN'R ?

[NicoRourke]

I'm sorry to say this, I know I'll be flamed, but maybe the HTGTH team should get rid of the VR section.

Put those topics in Ex-Gunners, where people that are willing to discuss Slash, Duff and Matt present activities can go.

Since a lot of people are willing to move on and take the band for what it is (GN'R), maybe it's time for this board to be 100% dedicated to GN'R, the one that's alive out there.

I mean, you don't have to answer this (Jarmo or the crew), but why not having a site a 100% dedicated to Guns ?

What will happen when CD's released (and it's close) ? Those eternal VR Vs GN'R things will never stop. And I mean there's tons of VR boards out there, where the fans can go and discuss. Why having one here ?

I'm just trying to understand why a section that causes so much fights is still there.

I'm not saying that talking about the ex-guys should be forbidden, not at all. But since they are in a complete different band, why having a section dedicated to that ?

Isn't this supposed to be all about GN'R ? From 1986 till nowadays ? But only about GN'R ?

I mean, I understand why there's an Ex-Gunners section, and the VR talk should be there. Plus there's plenty of people registered here that are also on www.velvetrevolverforum.com and they're not saying nice things about Axl. (basically -> Axl's a cunt, etc.).

Why give this band a plateform here ?

Jarmo, if you read this ?

I felt bad that nobody thought this was worth replying to.

Better luck next time.

i think i agree with NR here, and in the vr section there isn't just vr theres about loaded and neurotic outsiders too, so it's kinda like a ex-gunners section anyway, so if it's possible just merge 'em or something maybe

Sorry to say this but what a stupid post, first you say Jarmo should abolish the VR section and than you say they should be discussed in the ex-gunner section?, what's difference between discussing it there or in the VR section?....exactly there isn't and another thing what do you think abolishing the VR section will solve?...

(basically -> Axl's a cunt, etc.).

Really? than you must visit a totally different forum than me

[Krispy Kreme]

I like it the way it is.

[Jim Bob]

What I don't like about it is that if we have a VR section, why don't we also have an Izzy Stradlin section, an Adlers AFD section, a Rockstar Supernova section, a buckethead section, etc etc. 

I agree with most of what the original poster is saying, and think all ex-gunner activities wuld be better off in one section.  it would make one stronger ex-gunners section, and it wouldn't be showing favoritism to a band whose members have been disrespectful cunts to Axl and the band.

plus i think a VR section is inviting to Slash trolls.

No problem

first you say Jarmo should abolish the VR section and than you say they should be discussed in the ex-gunner section?, what's difference between discussing it there or in the VR section?...

Hmm ... Because we're on a Guns N' Roses board ?

Really? than you must visit a totally different forum than me

I don't think so.

Axl is a cunt... End Of Story.....

There you go.

[Jim Bob]

coming from tomass74... big surprise. 

[Africa]

I think there's a reason why his name is tomass

[Neemo]

some of us clearly have a mixed idea what the VR section is for...but whatever i'm not tell Jarmo how to run his board...i mean it is already located in the wasnt yesterday great section..and VR is by far the biggest thing to come out of ex members...and alot people here still like Slash and Duff alot...

I dunno i can see pros and cons of both sides of the argument, but its Jarmos call....who t he fuck are we to tell him how to run the board

Ideally it would be cool to leave slash/duff/matt outta the GnR section and leave axl outta the VR section....but thats jsut wishful thinking

[NicoRourke]

^ I fully agree with what you say !

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to tell Jarmo how to do his work I'd just like to understand why things are the way they are

haha my post wasnt meant to be hostile...i totally hear what you are saying..but i also agree with Grouse too

its a complicated emotion...almost like being a GnR fan....alot of gray and virtually no black and white. I mean VR news is no longer reported on the main site...that says alot

[Skeletor]

first you say Jarmo should abolish the VR section and than you say they should be discussed in the ex-gunner section?, what's difference between discussing it there or in the VR section?....exactly there isn't

I think you're wrong. Moving the VR stuff under Ex-gunners would state a message, and direct pure VR-fans (like tomass) to other message boards.

Still not getting what good it would do, I think we'll just have to disagree on that

There you go.

One comment out of 1000's made on a board, would hardly say that's all that's being done over there...

I couldn't disagree more, imo it would just turn the ex-gunners section into another VR section since it would be dominated by VR news and you would also give the trolls one more reason to continue to troll this board because they would feel Jarmo is up to his old "nazi" tricks again...

Personally I think that things are fine the way they are because no matter how hard you'll try you'll never be able to stop the gnr/vr debates with or withouth a VR section...

that would be grand

fuck you, you dumb shit, if u don't like the vr section dont go there.

[CheapJon]

fuck you, you dumb shit, if u don't like the vr section dont go there.

great mature insult 

[Robman?]

fuck you, you dumb shit, if u don't like the vr section dont go there.

Dude, just because he expresses his opinion and makes a logical, and pretty valid point, doesn't man you have to be rude about it and start spurting out insults.

well G'N'R is a band and VR is band so they should both have different sections, the only reason u don't want a VR section is because u hate Slash and love Robin Finck

[-Jack-]

To me it's obvious why VR isn't merged with the other ex-gunners... it's because VR is much more successful and actually has a chance in the mainstream. Adlers Appetite doesn't  . Even Buckethead isn't very well known.

As for why VR is even on the board in the first place... who knows. The Velvet Revolver board has a GNR section.. for old and new GNR. So.. who cares?

I don't see it as a big deal really.
