I don't really understand why he was banned, as he did bring up some valid points. I'm a huge fan of Heidi Montag, but I wouldn't describe her as an artist at all. However, I still love her album to death. It doesn't change my opinion of the music. I also like Christina, but it's in my opinion that she thinks a bit too highly of herself when she essentially creates the same kind of commercial pop music that her peers do. So there's no need for her to put herself on a higher pedestal and there's no need for her fans to do the same, as though she's doing something that the other girls are not.
As for "Not Myself Tonight", I never expected that it would be a huge hit, but I at least thought her name was big enough to keep it floating in the top 15. Then again, I do think it's one of her weakest singles. I liked "Keeps Gettin' Better" a lot. I wish she'd do more songs like the ones on her greatest hits album.

ok so you aren't a hater but you don't agree with actual hater being banned for hating?
I don't classify his posts in this thread as hating. Like I already said:

NMT is about to fall of iTunes Top 30. Who's mad now?
And shouldn't you be on the phone requesting NMT on the radio? That's the least you can do at this point.
OK, I think that's enough, or you'll be PERM-banned!

POOR Rico. His posts were so fulfilling to read - a rarity around here nowadays! I just hope it was a "Time-Out" ban, for like a day or-so

see? that's why you're mad your kind got banned.
its too early to say NMT is dead. Big promotion is lined up, and if it still does poorly, then it's no big deal. I'm sure another track will work out.
Rihanna's RR didnt work for her, but look how well RB is doing.
whatever, at the end of the day, we fans get what we want. A great album and awesome performances.
cant wait to see something like this from her again

Luckily, Rihanna found her sound and niche during the GGGB era. Xtina is yet to find hers. I don't know why you're comparing both of them... Rihanna is way ahead at this point not to mention relevant. And this post is just a pure example that Xtina stans set up themselves to have her compared with other artists. Not Britney stans (Rico, to be exact) starting flame.

i used her singles as a point to show that a "flop" off the bat doesnt matter too much
you're the idiot thinking im comparing them competitively.
You're the hater saying Christina doesnt have an audience when she's a arena selling-out superstar.

Well, I do think that Xtina might end up with a Rihanna-type run. However, Rihanna never had a slow start in the same way as Xtina. NMT performance is humiliating and her stans reactions across media boards show that. Some can't even be found (ROKR, where are you? Of course, I'll expect a 'having a life' response). Besides, it's easier for Xtina to outpeak NMT. The song's performance is so disappointing and even unexpected by her biggest critics. But she will NOT have a 'Rude Boy' type of success. The world has moved on. Britney cemented her authority a long time ago. And a new breed of girls have taken over the charts. I honestly can't see Xtina with another #1. Top 5-10, maybe.

it's not even been on itunes a full week and you're jumping to conclusions.
Britney cemented her authority?
you mean the people that own her....if there even any truth to that.
cause we all know what happens when Britney is in control.
