Haha... this is funny because I actually did get this automated email in my spam/bulk e-mail folder last night.
Anyhow, I haven't posted here in a year and a half, so I figured I may as well take you all up on the invitation to "just jump right in" and see what things are like as compared to what I remember from the last time I posted here, and to just take a look around in general.

I don't feel this way. I'd personally like to hear complaints if they are put reasonably and respectfully. I don't consider it my board and I'm pretty sure none of the other mods do. It's a board for Vanessa Carlton fans and your input is more than welcome as far as I'm concerned.Quote from: "highwaycruiser"But if you're willing to listen... I'm willing to talk.

Why not post it? That's what the thread is for. I not, I'd be interested in listening to the issues you have.

Thanks, Kev. I will e-mail you when I get home (I'm at work right now).
Why not post it?
I'd love to, but to avoid any controversy (as some feelings may get hurt) I'd rather keep it this way for now. I think you can agree that whatever I've said here, whether you agree or disagree with me, has been reasonable and respectful, but I don't feel comfortable posting it openly... at least not right now.

Thanks for clarifying who you were referring to, Todd and Kev.
There is a lot of thoughts and opinions I have formulated on this board, and as I did post... one member of management here knows how I feel.
Despite the fact that we have more or less clarified this matter, there have been issues that have bothered me and remain unresolved/unaddressed... so unfortunately I have already made up my mind about how often I'll post over here and support it. I have been a member of Vanessa's board since May 2002, so I'm certainly no Johnny-come-lately who doesn't know what he/she is talking about. I've seen it all. I used to contribute to this site a lot more (ie, doing chart updates and stuff) but now the heart isn't really in it anymore... so I pulled the plug on that 4 weeks ago.
A growing number of fans are feeling alienated and as a result, have lost a lot of confidence in the way things are being handled, and as a result, are not happy. I said what I had to say before... as far as I'm concerned the ball is in their court. If they choose to look into it, that's great... if not, I don't really care anymore. It's not my board... it's theirs and they have every right to run it however way they feel and we ultimately have no right to complain.
But if you're willing to listen... I'm willing to talk. Just click on my profile to get my e-mail address and email me.

Quote from: "GSUCarltonFan"HELL F'N YES I MISS THE OLD BOARD.
Cuz now all the retards come here... (I did not name names...)
Amen to that. Long live the o-board.
-Kev
What puzzles me is that on one hand the management team over here wants new people to come... yet on the other hand they don't seem to (as suggested by the above quote).
If you expect new people to come and join, you have to expect that there will naturally be changes in the "atmosphere" over here. If you wanted the way it was 'before all the retards came over here,' you could have simply let in only those people you like and exclude others. It is a private board, after all.. and nobody can stop you from doing it if you wanted to. But if you want it to be for everyone... you have to be willing to accept the changes that will--not may--occur.
I've stated my feelings before, partly in threads over here (like the one about making Nessaholics.com the official fan club), in selected threads on Vanessa's board, and in PMs to someone in management over here.
The easy and obvious solution I chose was to simply not visit here as often as I used to.

Nobody knows for sure... but there are a few theories.
1. Security at Wango Tango (WT) is tough, and they make sure that people keep their distance from the performers. Tyrese wanted to bring up girls from the audience and security did not like that, and he argued with them to let them up.
2. He exceeded his 20 minute time limit, and on top of it, he arrived late.
3. He grabbed one of the girl's rear-end, and the show's producers, not wanting to invite litigation, felt it was best to end it right there (so they could then defend themselves by saying they took 'reasonable' steps to prevent any further actions from Tyrese).

Completely Off-Topic / Is anyone else feeling this way?
« on: May 31, 2003, 01:30:32 pm »
Don't worry, it will end as soon once Vanessa' board is back and the transient members leave.
It hasn't really bothered me though, since the other place I visit isn't affected by the problems over here

I like that song too...
Too bad he got taken off the stage at Wango Tango when he was performing it.

I thought there's just 1 new member... Kasey Sheridan. The others (Holly, Ashley and Diana) are still there.
They were in the studio with JoJo on KIIS-FM Los Angeles a couple of nights ago, and I think they're still as cool as ever. I love Dream!!!
