Hello sistren.
Before I begin today, I would like to direct your attention to the post that got me banned:
http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.ph...2#post24415062
I have been sporadically reading this base over the last 30 days, and with each passing day I've felt the growing need to say something. Now that I can, I will. This base is a god damn ****ing mess. I have never seen more selfish, stubborn, disgraceful people in my ****ing life. I don't understand why ya'll feel the need to act like ingrates all the time, but please, take a seat, and sit harder than Adele doing her Rolling in the Deep choreo. Gaga doesn't give a flying rat's ass what you or anyone else thinks of her. She doesn't care what you think about her wigs or her dresses or her makeup or her weight or her ****ing music. Just because she isn't smiling in a photograph doesn't mean she's depressed. Just because you're stuck in ****ing 2009 doesn't mean she's going to consider YOU when making her next album.
For christ's sake, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but do you really have to push your opinion down our throats? We get it, you can't stand ARTPOP. Okay, thanks for sharing. You think TFM is overrated, good for you. You think The Fame is basic, okay, have a nice day. What I don't understand is how anyone could actually HATE anything that Gaga has done. If you are a ****ing stan posting in a stan base on a bitchy music forum, how is it possible to hate more than 50% of that artist's discography? I don't even know why some of you bother posting in here if all you do is hate on every god damn miniscule thing this godly woman does.
I really want to call out individual members who have contributed to the deterioration of this base, but I'll refrain from doing that.
**** it, I'm doing it.
rasmushooker - If you hate more than 50% of Gaga's discography, why are posting in here incessantly? Your the biggest reason this base has been so hateful this last month. And for some reason, you only started posting recently. Why don't you just drop the act and unveil yourself as the Madonna/Katy fan you really are?
GypsyLife - Stop. Just stop. We get it. Your a mom, your old, we get it. You post more than rasmushooker. And you're sensitive about everything. You don't know **** about Gaga or her life or her depression, so stop pretending like you're her soul sister.
Yzma - Your RedOne hate/fake trolling need to stop. Go back to making your ****** MS Paint single covers (love you tho)
Optimus - Exactly how many heels have you broken running in here every time someone praises RedOne and Poker Face? It's beyond embarrassing.
bluth - If I see you make one more post about DJ Snake I'm diving off a cliff. I don't think I've seen you make a post that doesn't mention DJ Snake in the last few weeks.
Ramos - Please stop hating on C2C. It's a good album and it's doing wonders for Gaga's public appearance and media status. It's also selling extremely well and has saved her career from plummeting further. It's also given her the confidence she's needed to actually take back control of her career. So give it up. Same goes for anyone else who constantly hates on C2C.
Sadly, I can't even call out anyone else because some of these people have taken over the base. Rusty, Phoenixstar, ELECTRAHEARTPOP, ivi (so awesome that you met Gaga btw, I'm so happy for you), Badger, Meowster, I love your posts. It's sad to see so many of the regular from earlier in the year no longer posting, but I understand why you're not, and I'm siding with you. There's really no fun in posting here anymore. It's ****ing pathetic when I'd rather see H-I-M, jayyytee, and BAYAR posting in here.
Overall, the constant post whoring, the desperation to become a well-known, top poster, the sad shade and bad jokes, the hypersensitivity. Some of you need to step outside and get some fresh air, or at the very least stop yourself and think before hitting the post button. When Gaga stans are dragging Gaga and belligerently belittling her and her career and her decisions more than the haters, you know there's a problem. If you don't like Cheek to Cheek, then get the **** out. We don't need to hear your whiny bitchy posts about it 24/7. Gaga has some awesome things planned for the future, so have some patience. Jazz is something Gaga has always wanted to do, and she's finally done it, and it's been a huge success. Bobby has proven his marketing, promotion, and management skills time and time again over the last few months. I mean, the H&M campaign? The 1-800-Flowers deal? The appearances? It's all brilliant, and some people can't appreciate it because they don't like jazz music. Maybe you'll appreciate it in 2015 when Gaga reclaims her throne, and maybe then you'll look back and realize how C2C saved her career and pushed her one step closer to legend status.
Meanwhile, if I see one more DJWS vs. RedOne argument I'm going to blow a ****ing gasket. No one has any ****ing sense. They both have brought tremendous creativity and skill to Gaga's discography, and I would welcome both on her next record. All of her producers have done noteworthy things, and whoever Gaga chooses to work with next, I know she will put out a product valuable of my money and ears. In my opinion, Gaga has yet to put out an unlistenable song. I listen to her music constantly, and I bop just as much to The Fame as I do ARTPOP. I can't comprehend how any of you cannot also do the same.
This place used to be a lot of fun and I loved coming here, but before I was banned and during, it's become worse than ever. At first it was the general site, with all the trolls and constant Gaga bashing, but it's no longer just that: it's also this base. Sometimes, you people are even worse than the trolls. No wonder it's the same 5 people posting in here all the time: no one else can stand to come in here anymore.
Have a great day.
(P.S. I have a strong feeling Gaga's next album is going to be electric-rock - think Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto or Ghost Stories - and I have a strong feeling she feels that RedOne can help take her in this direction. I also have a strong feeling the next album is coming early-mid next year.)
