Did Matt And Jennifer Break Up?

Recommended Posts

i never said his life had no impact on his music. obviously it does, any creative person is going to express feelings/ideas/whatever through their art.

what i said is that i don't care about his personal life. i like the music. i don't feel a need to know WHY his songs were written or what he was thinking or going through personally when he wrote them. i attribute songs to my OWN life. that's part of the enjoyment of listening to music for me, getting my own meaning from it.

 

sure i watch shit like behind the music, on occasion. but i'm not interested in the man's relationship. sorry. i don't really think there are many things more personal and private than someone's relationship. i don't want to discuss my own relationships with total strangers, and i certainly don't want to discuss the relationship of a musician i will never meet with total strangers.

 

what is all this talk about censoring? no one censored anything, no one is going to censor anything unless it gets out of hand. i didn't ask you to agree with my opinion, ok? i just said that i have a hard time understanding why people are so concerned about his relationship and suggested that they make a similar thread for themselves and see how they liked all their personal business displayed for the whole fucking board to chat about.

I wasn't just speaking to you in my post, I was speaking to all the people who were against the idea of this thread and listing various reasons I thought that this thread was justified. I picked out your name because you were one of the people wanting to exclude discussion on Matt's personal life from this board and citing you was relevant to my post.

 

As far as censoring goes, it almost sounds like this thread was on the verge of being deleted entirely. Were there no other threads on this topic before this thread was created? If there were, and they were deleted unjustly, then that's censorship. Regardless of that being true or not, saying "you can't talk about that" is just wrong.

You're not paying for this place. The mods can censor whatever they feel is inappropriate. I think we agreed to that a long time ago.

Right. That's why I said that ultimately the decision is yours. I'm not paying for this place. I personally have no desire to talk about Matt Good's relationship with his (ex)wife. I just think that people should be able to talk about it if they want to. My position was that this thread was not inappropriate.

 

I believe that as long as the content is not hurting anyone or causing a disturbance to another individual, it should not be censored. I'm saying this is intended to be a Matthew Good board and it's Matthew Good we're talking about here.

 

But again, it's your decision on what goes.

 

P.S.: Have you gotten increasingly bitter in the last two years? I remember you not being a dick.

 

...and THAT you can censor. ;)

if he were actually a dick, he'd have banned your ass for insulting him.

Oh boy, I was wondering how a thread about it hasn't been made and now I found this. Well, I don't have anything to say really.

Many threads had been made but 'mysteriously' vanished shortly after.

If you complain again you'll be banned.

Excuse me?

 

I wasn't complaining about anything. I was attempting to answer the person's post as to why such a thead had not yet been created, when in fact I had seen several already. I put the word in quoteys simply so I didn't have to say outright that they were deleted, which I kind of thought would be viewed as unnecessarily hostile (kind of how you viewed it anyways).

 

 

I feel so completely violated. I make a simple post and you threaten to ban me? What the fuck is your problem?

 

Go to hell Anton.

 

 

EDIT: Before I'm banned, the rest of you may find this of interest.

It was nice posting with all of you except Anton, he was an arrogant, overbearing asshole from the beginning.

Sometimes what you mean to say doesn't always translate well over the internet. It happens all the time. Don't sweat it.

I think this thread has got a little stale. It seems events like this always bring out the worst posters as well.

 

Not that it really applies, but I would like to add a quote on the whole thing

"Intelligent people discuss ideas, shallow people discuss people"

 

Peace

now i feel so cool about not posting in this thread until now ;)
