I wont take up this space to defend Stevie, I see no reason to on one of her own fan sites, but I will give some advice:

Please Stevie fans, do not get your dander up based on the rants from the person mentioned above. How many of you would visit the sites of other artists just to pick on that person and the fans that visit the site. I find it pathetic and pointless. And if this person is call themselves a FM fan, I havent seen any proof of that either.

Just remember some people get off on being rude and insensitive and the way to get them to stop is not to reply.
Hi joe68,

please explain to me (as I'd really like to know), exactly what part of CarneVaca's posts are "pathetic" or "pointless" or "needless" or "nasty" ?

He's merely contributing to this thread by giving his opinion. As ChiliD stated, threads tend to take up a "life" of their own after the first few posts, and so although the post is meant to be "say who u think is the most talented", one shouldn't be surprised if people give related comments, like what their opinion is about the talents of Stevie Nicks. His is a negative opinion. So what? He was not rude about Stevie, and he was not rude to any Ledgie in any way (as far as I can see). Surely it's healthy to have a mix of views on any *discussion* forum?

He even went out of his way to write "In my humble, most subjective opinion", so that we know he is merely expressing his views, which, he doesn't have to do seeing as his posts have his screenname next to them so obviously they are HIS opinions.

I don't think he has to "prove" to you or anybody else that he is a Fleetwood Mac fan. (Incidentally if you do visit this site as often as you say you do then surely you would have seen the countless positive contributions he has made on the Lindsey Buckingham forum, including being the first to inform us of CVB's "Tusk" album release.)


Personally, I think

"Oh good grief. Not this Carna-whatsa person again"

and

"I'm wondering if you got picked on by the "popular" kids in high school and now start arguments as some sort of validation."

are some of the "nastiest" and "needless" comments i have ever read on The Ledge,

I'm not trying to "start" anything with you, and i'm not trying to defend CarneVaca either (if he feels the need to defend himself i'm sure he is more than capable), I just think what you said was a little OTT and uncalled-for...if CarneVaca posted anything in the past which was "wrong" in any way, I don't think it should be an excuse to attack every negative comment he says from then on.

I've said it (and many others have aswell) before and I'll say it again, this is NOT a Fleetwood Mac PRAISE board, it is a Fleetwood Mac DISCUSSION board.

And that last sentence, is the only part of my post which is not my opinion, but a FACT.
