What up with the VH1 Fleetwood Mac message board?

[Gypsy]

The entire board is gone with all of the old posts on it. To even look at posts (there are none, as far I could see), you have to log in. Hmm.
No tremendous loss, but I was just wondering. I guess VH1.com got wind of all the illicit sexual fan fiction and illegal advertising being posted there, heh, heh.

Eerie to go back there with it bein' so empty and all...lots o' tumbleweeds floatin' around, though. Thought I heard a wolf bayin' in the stillness...

I noticed this too. I keep checking on VH-1 and no dice. I then go to search for FM under "F" and when I go to click on FM, it bounces back to their main page. Go figure... :confused:

The same thing happened to me yesterday...I just assumed it was a site glitch

That happened to me as well. At least we don't have to look at all the soft porn threads any more :nod: But like Gypsy said it's not a tremendous loss; since I registered at VH1 that's all that was ever posted there- soft porn stories and Johnathan Todd propaganda.

[WWCT]

Oh, it wasn't the teen porn or the JT propaganda. I suspect they closed it after complaints by (I wonder who?) because the thread had posts revealing the awful truth about the fan club. This reminds me of the Nicks Fix censorship. Somebody (I wonder who?) got the Nicks Fix to remove a fan poll that showed a huge majority of fans against the fan club. Remember when that happened? Soon after it was gone the happy club letters got posted there instead. Aside from this great site, which we know isn't officially blessed by the band, where else is the truth being told without official censorship being unleashed? Other fan run sites are not whitewashing. That's about it. Still think the band doesn't know anything? Sure.

[gypsysara]

JT & Porn. Both trashy subjects.

[Destiny]

It's truly an outrage.
Conspiracy for sure!
:nod:

[gypsysara]

I emailed VH-1 asking what happened to the forum, so it will be interesting to see if I get a reply.

[seeknpeace]

JT probably either had the board pulled or whined to someone else who did, like Reprise. Well, they have to remember that they can hack it, remove it, wash it, and try to reinvent it, but, it happened the way that it happened and shame on anyone who it trying to wait this out and change history. We ain't going NOWHERE.

One of the board members on Micks Chat posted a link to his fan website in the News section. He was told by an administrator that because legal stuff was involved, posting fan links was a no-no.
An aquaintaince of mine posted back, asking why Jonathon Todd was advertising for the Fan Club and website on the VH1 Fleetwood Mac message board, and included links to his posts. They asked why the Knight could do that on other message boards, but posters on HIS message board couldn't link to their fan sites.
The next day, that post questioning the hypocrisy was gone (surprise), and the adminstrator sent that poster a message, basically saying, I know what you're trying to do- (get JT in troble, i guess), and to cut it out, or else. The VH1 message board was gone the same day, I think.
Maybe the Knight realized what a dumbass move he made. He probably claimed that someone was falsely advertising the site under his name or something. I agree with you all saying that JT proably had some hand in this. I wonder if vh1 will write you back, Gypsysara, and what they will say? Let us know!

you won't hear back jack squat

[Gypsy]

Disenchanted, what makes you say that?

Now that is interesting. I remember that thread on Mick's board though I didn't realise it had been deleted. I think that was a fair enough question though... but of course Todd runs by his own set of rules, andmost of them he makes up as he goes along!

A friend of mine from one of the alt music boards mentioned to me that several people complained about not being able to access the vh1 board.
She didn't really say much else except that some of the old time members on the Mac board couldn't keep their posts going because of the new threads.

I had trouble accessing that board last week and then it was back up.

So I didn't know it was actually down till I read this thread.
They could be upgrading or somethin??
Oh well, I never post there, I just popped over when I saw the link here about it.

And JT was his name-o

[glitter_fades]

I could be wrong but I don't think you'll hear back either. JMHO.

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

Well the Stevie board is still working ;)

Well, guess what? My VH1 memebership won't work anymore...imagine that. And, when I tried to get my password, it says that it doesn't recognize my email addy, and when I try to sign up again using it, it says that it is used. So, MR. Thing is at it all over the place. I hate you Jonathan Todd. Have your fun while you can. We are into round five and I am still standing.

When my pal over at Mick's Chat asked why her post was deleted and asked for more information, she was told by an administrator that the Knight posted links on the VH1 boards as a "rebuttal for people that don't know about the Club" to "prove there was content on the site", because there was a "slam fest" going on there.

Only there?? hahahahaha...how bout internetwide. And, I KNEW that Mystic was him. I believe that he would pose as others to try to deflect from his misdeeds in a twinkling of an eye. Well, well well....

[seeknpeace]

Oh, and one more thing... I think that he is here and has ppl here who post. I KNOW that they read the board. The person who called the fan told the fan that they "monitor the Ledge all day long", sooooo,,,,,,,watch out for those plants... without water they will wither

[glitter_fades]

This is a big reason why I believe strongly that the band and their managers must put a stop to him, or distance themselves in some way for fans to know they want no part of what he's doing. If questions keep going unanswered they should realize they are seen by some as guilty by association. I really don't think the band would agree with JT intimidating fans, but they must be pro-active in stopping it if they don't want his behavior to tarnish them. If JT can spend so much time lurking on these boards the band can have their people do a little lurking and investigating of their own. When I wrote to HK I gave them my number. They can have their people call my people any time (LOL!) but I think somehow management is deciding to let JT run amok rather than call attention to what he's doing. Stevie, Lindsey, John, even Mick, please...Say You Will have no part of this guy's assault on your fans. Do something before all this mess ends up in your lap.

[gypsysara]

I am not surprised it was him on the VH-1 board AND that some of the MF.com MINIONS lurk over here.

Cool Im going to check out Stevie's place. My login still works over there. Sorry you are having problems Seek!!!

Thanks Stephanie...it will end one way or the other soon...sigh

[gypsysara]

Reminds me of a grateful dead song I love:

One way or another, this darkness has got to give.

I know they lurk over here too. Cause Ive lurked OVER THERE before I was "banned" LOL and saw some users there post as much. Here's to a happy resolution for ALL! :)

The admistrator posted that publically on Mick's board or in PM? If in PM... does she still have it?
