But there is a few things I feel I need to say. Sorry if this offends you icwuke, but you are trying to paint yourself in a very saintly way here. I have no idea what the ins and outs are of your deal with your work. But i'm sure you did alright out of the cds. As in commision or something or at the very least you will now be in the firms good books. Plus not sounding ungreatful or anything but them cds actually cost me more than if I had gone into the shop and bought them. they also didn't arrive till the 20th which meant I had to buy them twice so i could get them signed at the cd signing.
Also please don't forget you also sold dvdrs on ebay of stuff you had downloaded off the fans here and made a huge profit of at least a thousand pound. So saying how much you're doing for everyone here doesn't really sit to well with me, especially when a fair bit of that stuff was mine and stuff that I have shared freely (and also at a cost to myeslf on many occasions)
Just another thing I'd like to add. I really do feel for R and Diane. They really can't win here. Meat tells them he wont visit the site and will not give them things if they dont censor people and on the other hand they get fans calling them how heavy handed they are (and thats putting it mildly)
I'm not a fan of locked threads, or censcoring, infact it annoys the hell out of me, but I do see why they feel they have to. They do this for the sheer love of it and all they get from most angles is critisism.
Finally I agree the title of this thread wasnt good. But I don't really see anything wrong with the thread. It's just as some have said a difference of opinions on things. Life would be very boring without differences and like Mike (I think) said, we all want success for Bat III.
Sorry to go on, but just lately reading stuff over and over and seeing so many agendas all over the place has really got to me. I'm even wondering what the point of all this is.

Thats quite a tiring post.
I'm not quite sure how I'm trying to make myself out as anything, I just simply pointed out for Mr. Loaf to come on here an question if someone is a fan for not kissing his arse and everything around Bat 3 is quite silly. Also that it doesn't matter what you buy, what you don't, which shows you go to, you're not really more of a fan than anyone else. You shouldn't have to kiss the guys arse to not get moaned at.
You're right, I got a free Bat 3 LP for all my work! I don't want a 'bonus' or anything like that. The website isn't even my department. I'm the manager of one of the company stores. I was already in the good books, I've introduced a few new things since starting there, this just helped prove I'm right! If your item was late, then it was nothing at all to do with me. You'd also be hard pressed to find the new single deal cheaper elsewhere. Even HMV with free P&P costs more!
These CDs/DVDs... I've heard a fair bit about them off other people. I remember seeing Carly posting something about them and how people shouldn't buy them. I think your figures are off, it was more like £12,000
I think thats enough for that!
The mods have a job to do, and of course Mr Loaf needs to be kept happy. We need him to come here and give us bits of inside information and gossip.
I thought the title was very fitting, and both the title and I have been proved right, Bat 3 will be lucky if it is still in the top 40 come Sunday, which is was I was getting at in the first place. But anyway...
