================================================ Subject: Re: I Hate When People Bash Creed! From: "Greg Keltner" To: Date: Thu 6 Jun 2002 21:44:41 -0500 ================================================ What is "bashing" anyway? When does constructive and direct criticism in an open (well if you can call a Hitler moderated forum such) discussion forum cross the line to "bashing". Not everyone will appreciate something as much as you. Is me telling you that as time goes on Creed is becoming less and less an imaginative band, bashing? Is stating that the CD "Weathered" gets virtually no play in my CD player bashing? If there cannot be an avenue to give an opinion without censorship or cries of Pollyanna then what value is it other than a place to gush our admiration of our idols. Such a waste, and you are the latest one to espouse your need of a place where nothing but praise is vented. Now, feel free to start such a list and pardon me while I vomit.
