This is my thoughts on tolerance:

a fair, objective, and permissive attitude toward opinions and practices that differ from one's own.

With that said, I have no issues with any other groups of fans or the person(s) that they represent. The Brucie Brigade are free to be the uber fans that they are, but I want that same respect and opportunity to be presented to me when I am uber Meaty fan mode.

I come here to learn about Meat and his goings on, and to have discussions about his career and plans, what I don't want is to have the vast majority of these conversations derailed by a pointless Bruce/Meat comparison. I would not go over to a Springsteen forum and bring up Meat in every thread that I went on, I would simply discuss Springsteen, and when I wanted to talk about Meat, I would come back here.

I am tolerant of all fans, races, creeds, colors, religions, and sexual orientations. All I want is that same respect and attitude in return. Some people are not capable of the tolerance level that I possess.

Bravo well said. This site is about Meat Loaf - to support him and get info on HIS career. We have this thread comparing Bruce to Meat in which some people are coming out in favor of Bruce on a Meat Loaf fan site. Again if you are that much of a Bruce fan and not really for Meat, take it to the Springsteen fan site and leave the Meat fan site to the Meat fans. We also have a thread discussing Bruce's Wrecking Ball album. Then we have a thread regarding Bruce's upcoming concert tour. And this discussion actually started it in the Paul Crook's thread about Production. Even Paul's thread was initially hijacked to discuss Bruce. There is also another thread that I can't think of at the moment which is about Bruce. So we discussing Bruce's music, Bruce's album and Bruce's concert tour here. WHY? I can't answer why the endless discussions of Bruce. This site is supposed to be a MEAT LOAF FAN SITE after all.
