I must say, SymX are kinda turning into Iced Earth, and that is NOT a good thing...

SOMETHING had to have happened since February...it is pretty much May...that is like 3 months...

Exactly.
 
you're arrogant for thinking that SX owes you anything, and you're dumb for even caring about updates, it wont make the album come out any sooner and when something worth knowing about happens jax will tell us.

threads gonna be closed anyway, figured i'd flame the guy while i can...

Are you both blind and stupid? I just said in my first post that they DON'T owe us jackshit, but still we are the fans and I think we deserve SOMETHING for being loyal (FOUR years since last album) and buying their stuff and supporting them. The band wouldn't be anything without the fans - that's a fact some of you might have hard to grasp!

And of course you're gonna lock this thread, cause this isn't a forum where you discuss your thoughts and feelings about the band and it's whereabouts, this is a Stalin forum where you can't say a god damn thing negative before you get cut off. Censorship is the medicine to all criticism, right?
 
I'm not impatient, as stated above. :)

While waiting for SX to come out with their album, I spend my time listening to a ton of other bands instead of whining.
 
this isnt about censorship, its about this topic being discussed 8000 times. and yeah so i missed a part of your first post, my bad, doesnt change the fact that small updates about the recording process wont change jackshit about when the album will be released, and when something is actually newsworthy it will be posted. whats the point in getting upset about something as ridiculous as a lack of studio updates?

And it has, MJR took the time to chat with the fan club members last month and there are quite a few tidbits about the cd in there..it's no one's fault but your own if you couldn't be bothered to read it, but don't talk shit about the band not staying in touch when they have.

No point in explaining it to you. The SX-heaven will be open for you as well, you young pupil. It's although incredibly sad to see that everyone is so thick in the brain that they don't get the point without arguing and trying to make an ass out of everyone who dares to say anything but postitive about the band and the whereabouts.

Are you a member of the band? Are you MJR:s daughter/son? No? Then why the h*ll can't you just accept that people wonder and asks, WITHOUT trying to be Pointdexter? *sighs*

Nope, but I notice that you have very few posts that aren't bitching and complaining..do you actually have anything positive to say or are you just here to start shit?

I'll thank you not to tell me how I will or won't run this forum. Sure, everyone's frustrated, and you're more than welcome to express that frustration..that's why this thread is still open..so as far as labeling this a Stalin forum, you can kiss my ass. As it's been mentioned, this same sort of thread has been done before (ad nauseum)..pissing and moaning won't make the band write any faster..and posting inflammatory crap over and over just to start a shitstorm isn't the way to go if you want to hang around long.

Interestingly enough, I'd bet that many of the people bitching now are the same ones who bitched when SymX originally planned not to do Gigantour..well you got what you wanted, they played, and now we're dealing with the consequences and delays; you can't have it both ways, that's not how the band's writing style works.

They're as anxious to have this thing done as you are, that I guarantee, and when MJR thinks he has something newsworthy to share, he will, I promise.
 
This is the first time i've ever defended against a thread like this. just because i disagree with your useless ranting doesnt mean that im blindly defending the band, i just think its ridiculous of you to bitch about something so trivial

Actually, I think people are afraid to say what's on their minds, just because of your way of running this forum. Threads locked here and there, i think you know exactly what I'm talking abot. And that is Stalin methods. Why can't everyone express their minds without a freaking locked thread everywhere? Yeah, sure, YOU'RE the one with the info. But still, we other "normal humans" wonder. Is that so hard to understand? In four years we've had abot five updates (not the stuff about Rullo's drumset on auction and so on) and that's not enough, in my (and many others opinion). Come on, don't be such a "party pooper". Just cause we wonder, doesn't mean we hate everything about SX, the forum or anything related to SX.. We just wan't to know, and is that REALLY too much to ask for?

And i could have tons of positive things to say, if i didn't feel that this is the thing on my mind (and has been for a while). I think it's really sad that we, the fans, don't get jackshit in four years except an update saying SX are going in to the studio which later on is changed to "is writing". That's cheating and betraying a whole lot of people. Like it or not, that's my point of view and you can't take it from me, even with your computer skills.

I'm fed up with this.. This isn't what it once was.

EDIT: Btw, i won't be kissing anyones ass, least of all yours!

wow, then you should learn proper English then...

"this" doesn't translate into "the band"....

"I'm fed up with this.. This isn't what it once was."

should be "I'm Fed up with them.. There not what they once were..."
