The long time members of this site didn't know many of the fans who came here complaining bitterly and taking over this board with endless posts about what did not interest many on this site. There was barely a complaint about having to scoll past 10 threads about the fanclub in order to get to the regular on-topic threads about the band and tour.
For the record, I actually remember quite a few "old Ledgies" who complained about the "invasion" from Mick's board. Everyone here tried to be sympathetic for a while, but it got to be too much after a while. No one can stand that much constant negativity. Even when there has been a legitimate wrong.

You can tell yourself you're wearing a white hat all you want, but if everything you say is confrontational, no one's going to regard you as anything other than a troublemaker. Obviously quite a few people already do. Perhaps even more who simply haven't voiced their opinion on the subject...and we shouldn't just negate how they feel...should we?
