First of all, I just want to say bravo to Queenie. I was listening to Thursday's podcast today and instantly pepped up when I heard a messageboarder calling in. I think the guys handled the situation very well. Just remember, if they really wanted to completely sweep us under the rug then they wouldn't have taken Queenie's call. Putting her on the air automatically suggests that they don't want to ignore us totally.
Now yes, I have been vocal in the recent past about the guys ignoring us. I haven't been one of the people to e-mail them or TEXT THEM (damn you for your stupidity, Titan.) I figure the messageboard is enough. If they don't want to see my complaining then they just don't have to read my posts. I still agree that they didn't handle this situation in the best way possible. I also agree that we didn't handle it well either. The guys should have thicker skin than they demonstrated in their reaction to this situation but if they really are getting tons of e-mails then I can at least somewhat understand where they're coming from.
Hopefully, everything is cool now. Do we have a sense of entitlement? Eh, maybe. I like to call it passion though. The guys should feel good that they have a group of fans passionate enough to care this much. A worse alternative would be having a completely dead board as opposed to "Spite board." I hope we can all chalk this one up to growing pains of the show as a whole. The link is on the new site now which is great.
Anyway, sorry for the mini-rant. Please go back to owning this sanctimonious LimpBagel guy.
