Icy, I do not wish to post outside this thread. What is your problem with that? It is not your business where I post. I am happy here, but you obviously are not. Every post is a complaint about something. If you want to discuss Freddie constantly, the Queen threads or a Freddie thread would be the most logical place. What is it that you don't understand about that concept? I am not insecure about Adam. I don't even understand that remark. I am abiding by the rules of the forum and just discussing QAL here. I don't understand your problem. I don't want to discuss Queen and Freddie somewhere else. I do not have the extensive knowledge some of you do, nor am I going to read up on it. I enjoy QAL just fine without that.
I also don't get how stating the fact that Freddie is long gone, unfortunately, is somehow gloating. Can't you just accept the fact that some of us might actually like to talk about the tour and individual shows and songs and you make it impossible with your constant criticisms of everybody here and everything related to Adam. It gets really, really tiring and then you blame it on us. How do we relate Freddie to the last show for example? I don't understand your mind set at all. There are other things to focus on than just Freddie since he isn't up there singing in Australia and I am truly not gloating. It is just the simple fact of the matter. [/QUOTE]
My problem is you come here claiming that you are a Queen fan, when you aren't. Your problem is that you don't post outside of here because you think you would be criticised by Queen fans, so you have basically judged all Queen fans by actions of very few. You don't care who sings Queen music, yes when it comes to everyone else but Adam Lambert. As long as it's Lambert that's what matters for you.
You are insercue about Adam...for some twisted reason it bothers you when Freddie is mentioned in here. I think what it oils down to that so many people admire and respect Freddie, his talent and his courage. Who the fuck are you and SweetCaroline to gloat that Freddie's no longer here...all the while most of AL's Carrera for nearly a decade has been riding on Freddie's and Queen's coattails? Does pointing out and g.outing Freddie's not here make you think that is going to make any Queen fan like AL more that Queen fans should forget Freddie because he's no longer here? Something is very wrong for anyone to casually throw around someone is no longer here the way you and SweetCaroline don't every time you want to try to point score.
I don't know how long you were a teacher, but it shocks me you once were a teacher and you are so ignorant when it comes to history of the past. It speaks volumes in all of your posts here, you could not post the once outside of here. You couldn't even post about Freddie on the 5th of September or the 24th of November even in here.
It's absolutely bullshit that you are too busy to learn about Freddie and Queen...it's more like you simply don't give a shit. Then you turn around acting so offended by things some say about Lambert....cry me a river.

Icy, I think you need to wake up and realize Freddie is gone and nothing is going to change that. He is also not the end all and be all for most people. I know my history of the US and Europe, past and present, and most parts of the world extremely well. I don't think I ever read about Queen in any of my texts! I could pass any history exam with flying colors, but the history of Queen just doesn't matter to me at this point in my life. Great, you think it is so important, but I don't. I have no interest in learning more about Queen and Freddie. It will not make me enjoy their music anymore. I also am too busy and you have no idea what I do with my time. You make these sweeping statements about thing that you can't possibly know. I have loved Queen since I first heard them in the 1970's and Brian has always been my guy. I bought their music and listened to it a lot and now I can go and see QAL when it comes around and enjoy it. I don't need anymore knowledge than the words to their songs and the fact that I really love to listen to their music. I don't care if you don't like to listen to QAL. That is your privilege, but don't keep telling me I can't enjoy it.
This idea of gloating that Freddie is not here is just plain stupid and I am sorry to be so blunt. Most people can accept reality and somehow you just aren't able to. That is not my problem. No one is forgetting Freddie, but it is hard to bring him into a conversation about last night's concert. I am done talking to you since you always say the same stuff, half of which makes no sense to me. The 5th of Sept and 24th of Nov just don't resonate in my world. Dates like the end of the WWII or the start of the Great Depression or the date of the Magna Carta just to name a few are worth remembering. I happen to be very good with dates in history also, but the two you mention are not up there with the ones I consider important. My world does not revolve around Freddie, but I can still be a fan of Queen and QAL. I doubt the average Queen fan knows those dates off the top of their heads, only overly invested fans would know all the stuff you do. Just let it go. Everyone is different and in your world, there is no allowance for that. I wouldn't want to live in your world, as you have no tolerance for anything that deviates from your rather rigid mind set.

ANy Queen "fan" who does not know Sept 5th or Nov 24 th is not a Queen fan. You surely are not. You are a fucking Glambert. Why don't you say so??? Does it bother you ? I could understand that it does but anyway...

Fuck off snifflese. I'm aware Freddie's gone. See what I mean about you gloating? Do you get sick kicks saying he's gone? He passed away tragically, but guess what, since you need a reality heck, his and Queen's music is still living on, and it wI'll for ages yet.
I think you need to wake up and realise AL is never going to have the impact Freddie did...and the impact Freddie still has. I don't think you are even aware of how great Freddie was in many ways.
I have never told you once that you can't enjoy QAL. There is no way that I think know you are a Queen fan at all however, or a Freddie fan.
You world doesn't revolve around Freddie. I think you have resentment and envy when it comes to Freddie. Gloating Freddie's gone is the weakest way you and SweetCaroline resort to in trying to make AL seem more important than AL actually is.
Keep in mind, it's very likely AL would not even have such a career if not for Freddie and Queen. Let that sink in the next time you want to gloat how long Freddie's gone and the next time you want to big up Lambert.

Iron Butterfly, seriously just give it a rest because what are you trying to achieve? You've wasted so much time doing this, time which you'll never get back. Listen and watch archive material instead or spend more time comment on the other sectioms of the site where I've only seen you comment one post for every 30 times on here. Do the thing you love instead of the thing you hate.

Not on your say so. I'm expressing my takes like everyone else here...I'm allowed to do that.
Don't ever tell me that I waste my time when you hardly know me and you throw crap my way. Funny what newbies do here eh.
Oh there you go again about my posts. What is it with you and my posts, you trying to start something with that, why? At least I do post outside of this subforum...and at least I'm a Queen fan.
Where is hate coming from? I never said I hated anything recently or in ages actually.
Get your facts straight before coming after me. Why don't you allow povs that are different from your own? You have recently wanted people to shut up a true indication that you are another butthurt AL fan. You have come here spouting off, you have even tried that on QOL just days ago.

You know what, I'm a true Queen fan, my complete singles and albums collection will prove it. I've also managed to meet Brian twice - my first time when I was just 12.
My definition of a fan is someone who agrees or supports with everything the something/someone does, or at least respects it. I post comments like this because I'm trying to put the point across where you can disagree but to be a fan of something, at least respect their decisions.
I do allow opinions but when it's constant comments at every post some of the regular contributors do it's irritating. I'd almost go to the point where it's trolling because it's upsetting Glamberts and you know it is. It's winding them up because that's caused them to use metaphors and compare you and others to Hitler, etc.
I really can't be bothered to do this again so I might never return to this forum section again

The thing about your posts outside this QAL forum is quite telling. If you can't bother to post there much, why should we who don't want to? I don't go and check your posts, because I could care less, but one post for 30 visits shows you aren't taking your own advice. Why can't someone point that out to you? Are you so special? You tell every Adam fan their business, so perfectly fine to point to inconsistencies in your posts. I for one would like to see a post from you that contains actually knowledge of all the Queen history and actually imparts something interesting. For all your talk about learning Queen history you never write anything except for diatribes complaining about Adam and Glamberts and telling us our business. Take you own advice and put all that great knowledge of yours to work. It is partly you that keeps new people from coming here because you behave in such a nasty manner to people. You might want to think about that.

... Excuses. Excuses. It is a vendetta. The Hitler comments are only directed at Icy ... not runner, not Gerry and not me.

... Because every post from SC is a spam link or implies that AL is stupendous, marvelous, sexy and perfect.
snifflese · Member since
I am not totally sure I get this Spam business because the few forums, sites I visit all have the same kind of things linked that they post in the forum. There are never any complaints or issues, only on the Queen board. Brian includes tweets and instagrams and such, so why can't you do that here?I assume you don't like it because it is about Adam and QAL. Some people are appreciative of some of the informative things pertaining to concerts and live streams. It is also her right to think everything is wonderful and marvelous. She seems like a pretty positive person in general and if that is her opinion, she is entitled to it. Lord knows, you haters sure can say the same thing over and over again. I just don't see the difference and therefore, don't see any problem. As Icy always says, different POV's are welcome, until it is one she or you don't share. Well, tough!

Actually, I do. You want sunshine when it comes to everything to do with Lambert. When you don't get it, you throw a hissy fit. The way you judge Queen fans is absolutely wrong. You think people on QOL are homophobic because they don't accept AL because he is gay, and here you spend your shit when you said Queen Queen fans wanted Brian, Roger and John to die the day Freddie died. That's how fkd up you are in your Lambert cult.
You would love it if everyone thought like you, felt like you all in the name Lambert as if he is a God.

Oh its upsetting to Glamberts. Boo hoo. Let's never mention the shit the two harpy Glamberts post about me, right.
Nothing I've ever said deserve most of the shit SweetCaroline throws my way. Nothing.
You have posted here wanting to have certain people to shut up, and you have nothing to say but totry to defend and try to excuse SweetCaroline. Of course you do. It's what Glamberts do.
