There I said it.
Her music sucks now and I can't bear to read any more of the constant obnoxious twitter updates.
She doesn't care about her old fans and she hasn't released any new music that's worth listening to.
Okay.

[Savannah]

You need to know it's not the best place to do it.

But now that you needed to vomit this bad, okay. Bye to you too.

It was something I wanted to discuss, so I placed it in the general discussion.

I didn't mean it was placed in a wrong part of forum.

But what you do is a little annoying. Nobody is forcing you to listen to or follow her.
Not that i'm a huge fan. But i like it here. And she doesn't have to take a special care of 'older' or 'never' fans. I think she often takes really good care of all of her fans.

umm not much to discuss...you clearly feel that amanda is no longer the person she used to be....she probably is not....none of us stay exactly the same....not sure hate is a particularly useful word though.......if you do not like what she is doing currently then stop being interested...pretty easy

Well, I'm a huge fan and I hate it here now.
I didn't say anyone was forcing me to listen to her. I still enjoy the music from the past and the community and friends I made on here.
AND GOD FORBID I EXPRESS AN OPINION DIFFERING FROM YOURS.
Who are you to say what I can and cannot post?
I was trying to have a discussion about Amanda in a forum about Amanda.
Seems pretty reasonable to me.

I wanted to see what everybody else had to say about this, and I would like to be interested but I feel as though she sold out to some annoying image and I feel cheated because I was rewarded for all of my devotion with nothing.

[The Angel Raliel]

do not think anyone was saying you could not post, just starting an I hate Amanda thread on her official forum is a tad rude....
we have all had the rare luxury of being fans of a musician that puts an unprecedented amount of attention into her fan base...she has every right to not put quite so much in and she still puts in far more than 99.9% of well known musicians

I don't remember saying 'you cannot post something'. I just said 'it's not the best place to do it'. And if you wanted to have a discussion you should have been ready for disagreements. I simply disagree but now that you say who am i to do so, well have a good time expressing your hatred.

You didn't argue against my opinion, you told me to leave because you didn't like it.
Why is this not the perfect place to have any discussion about my opinions regarding Amanda Palmer- whether they're good or bad?
I think you took the word "hate" a little too seriously.

[BATTEREDxBRIDExLUVR!]

i think that a lot of the time with these discussions, it's okay for team-artist to cite time as something they gave a lot of, but not team-disgruntled-fan, and i don't think that's entirely fair. people who are upset devoted their time and energy too, and if someone is upset, it's not because they're being a selfish greedy bitch, it's because they invested a lot and care(d) about something. that doesn't mean that amanda can't change but i think that it's a legitimate opinion worthy of being discussed rather than asked to leave because of.

er, is there not a certain implication with these words?

i'm obviously a fan, like, i've spent plenty of time here.
my point wasn't really that i "hated" amanda, it was that i am now a disgruntled fan.
i put my time and energy into loving and caring about her and i feel like i was promised things that were never delivered, both literally and figuratively. (a literal example: that she would release unreleased songs after she got dropped from her record label. it didn't happen.)

[lentower]

Could we ALL calm down a little?!?

Nothing wrong with people venting here,
even if it's against Amanda +/or Brian.
As long as it doesn't get too personal, etc.
see the Box Rules in News

And [+1] for naming the thread,
so people know what's it about.

i would have title it:
i hate Amanda's recent work/art/bogs/tweets
but i focus on a person's behavior, not the person.
ymmv

The pro-Amanda comments in this thread have
all been good too.
