Guest TriGunMaSta68 Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Okay, i said it was a poem, but as u know obviously that it was a song by Marylin Manson. I never said that it was mine, as i know that many know of Mr. Manson. For those that havent, you really need to. To me he is an icon, and i would never talk crap about him. I just wanted to know what everyone thought about it, as many people are turned off when hearing the name Marylin Manson. Its like alot of parents didnt like Kiss back in the 70's, but do you think Kiss would have gotten so much crap thrown at them if they didnt wear paint on thier faces? Or like if the parents saw like Kiss's "Beth" as a poem they wouldnt say "ITS THE WORK OF THE Knights In Satan's Service!!!" (Which many older people of the 70's thought K-I-S-S stood for). Maybe im making a sad comeback trying to redeem myself, or maybe I really had reason to posting "The Dope Show" by Marylin Manson. Think whatever you want, but i guess it really matters to you why i posted it to see what people thought. Maybe you are too ignorent to see that there are more than one possibilities to why someone would post things, maybe you should think about what you are going to say before you say it. By the way your rules say not to disrespect staff. Does it go the same the other way? I think calling someone pathetic isnt very respectful. Also, you could have asked why I didnt put Marilyn Manson on the Tread before pretty much throwing your middle finger in my face. Have a nice day!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 This forum is about posting your own work. It's not about posting other people's work and not mentioning them whatsoever... then posting twice more complaining about how no one is responding to it. Not mentioning the band, who wrote it or anything else to that effect is pretty damn disrespectful in the first place, so don't talk to me about "respect". I do consider the things that were done there pretty pathetic because of that. It's not some personal jab at your own life. It's his song, considering you felt no need to credit him for it, I think a retitling is in order. Tell me, by not mentioning who the song was by in all three of those posts, how is anyone supposed to know what the hell your purpose was? All it looks like is plagiarism. If you wanted to discuss Marilyn Manson, there are far better ways to do it. Do you see any other threads in here doing such things? Instead, I get to read about Kiss and how you don't feel you had any need to mention it wasn't yours because you never said otherwise. In a world full of cheaters and plagiarists, I have to wonder how you think anyone would ever think otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TriGunMaSta68 Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Dude, i said i wanted to know what people thought about, as i said in my post that many people dont like Marilyn Manson. Of course once somebody replied i would tell them that it was Marylin Manson's song from this album Mechanical Animals. Like for instance in my school, Im probably the only true fan of MM. As you could ask anyone else im my school theyd say they heard this and that about him and that he is some sicko freak. So, i thought what if people didnt know this was Marilyn Manson? They might like it, then when i tell 'em that it was him, they might be like "Hey, thats pretty good!". But as I have said before many people turn a blind eye against MM.

Semjaza Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Then, in this case, wouldn't have it been easier to PM me (the one who closed it) and explain what you were doing? I mean, honestly, how would anyone know? I would have known right there, and adjusted what I've said. It's not as if more than 3 or 4 people had been in this section while it was all happening, no one would have noticed. I cannot just guess that you're going to do the right thing... especially when someone who triple posts, uses overly large banners and has cursing in his profile is the one involved. I don't think I can be blamed for not thinking the best in this situation. Blame it on some of the past members who have done similiar things and just became worse, and eventually banned. It's a matter of history, not some personal vendetta against you. I get your idea, and it's not a bad one. The fact that they might like it, and then you could point out "Hey it's a Manson song!" and then maybe they'd become enlightened or something lol. Trust me, I am used to people being weird towards me for simply liking this band. Perhaps I was slightly harsh (and if so, I apologize), but when you combine all of this with the fact that Manson has been a favorite of mine since the early 90s, it kind of hit a nerve. However, my job here is to make sure these forums are in order... so when I see some random person post a song, then post twice more complaining and not once ever even mentioning their purpose here... what am I supposed to think? I'll let you respond, and then I'll just close this... this is something that belongs more in PMs than its own thread in the poetry section. You can PM me and say whatever else it is you'd like. I have nothing personal against you at all, but I'd have to say you have to see where I am coming from here. Edit -- Added a bit more. I also changed the thread title back since you were bothered by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TriGunMaSta68 Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Yes i agree i see where u are comming from, i do no that maybe people at first thought that it might have been my work, which i think was wrong on my part. But, as u can see above my Avatar that i am a Newb to this forum, i have not read the rules which i will do so, and i deleted the stuff in my profile, i see that was wrong on me too. No hard feelings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 No. None whatsoever heh. I'm glad things have straightened out then. I added a bit more to that post to explain myself, in case you haven't read it. It's nothing personal :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
