Exactly. I hate when people post their negative random thoughts. You don't know sh*t, so don't act like you do.

I also agree with this last part. I would rather have another album or 2 and less concerts/tours.

on the other hand, a "positive thought police" is just as annoying, if not more. self-righteousness is not necessarily very attractive.

people posting "negative" thoughts may be just venting their frustrations... for all we know it may be therapeutic for them.

we don't know whether this person knows something or not, so i'm not sure why we would be compelled to say they don't know sh*t.

"Positive thought police"? Really? I'm hoping for/expecting a new studio album from them by late 2015. If I said the new album would sell more than Taylor Swift, then I could understand what you wrote. I'm certainly being realistic.

I don't think there's a problem about posting negative random thoughts. I mean, where would the fun be without those?

But it is good to have a thread title that doesn't alarm. Michele

I hear you, but at least post it as your opinion and not a fact. Misleading threads are the worst!

Because they don't, and Penguin Head was spot on to call out the person for posting speculated opinion as fact.

I did not post my opinion as fact. Give me a break. I used a provocative headline for my thoughts. You seem to believe that just because something is posted on the Ledge it must be true...which is just stupid.

If "EP" ends up being the final studio release then you opinion will be fact...
