Hello from JulianLennon

[acid]

Well, here’s my two cents:

I know I’m still a new member but I love this board. I’ve loved it the minute I joined. I love the way that you girls are open, fun-loving and hilarious. When I read the old “Jan and Icee Fight Club” and the “Make fun of Crow” threads, I split my sides laughing. That’s when I learnt that you girls have a great sense of humour that can still be good-natured also. That’s what it’s all about. Having fun but never taking thinks too seriously.

I think that’s where the problem lies: we’ve forgotten how to laugh at ourselves. To joke, like in the above mentioned threads, is alright and, more often than not, incredibly fun. Pointed and biting comments are not appreciated or desired.

I find it sad that Crow left. I never spoke to her a lot before she left but I’ve visited all of the old threads and to lose a personality like hers can only make the board dimmer. No member should have to leave. Differences should be able too be settled rationally and changes can be tempered with the good old ways. Don’t leave, Icee or anyone else. Like Emma said, talk of leaving shouldn’t even exist.

It’s also sad that it’s the newbies stirring up trouble. Whenever someone joins, they’re always welcomed very warmly into the family and made to feel at home. Why, then, should they stay only to cause trouble? I think its creating a very anti-newb sentiment. And I agree with what everyone else has already said: if this is a board of friends, shouldn’t you at least know who your friends are?

I’ve been a member for almost a month and I have noticed the definite decline in the relations here. Where has all the fun gone, I wonder. I don’t want it to end.

-goes to join Jan's party too-

Whenever I’m bored or lonely, I visit this board. Why? Because the second I do I can’t help but smile. The LIB family rocks. Don’t stop now.

Wow, I missed a lot.

I've been reading this board since it was first started, but I was hesitant about registering because I never really was a member of a messageboard before. But I FINALLY registered, and almost immediately I got a few PMs welcoming me. It made me feel really comfortable about posting here. And I'm glad I did, because I feel like I can really relate to you guys, whereas all my friends just tell me how much the Beatles suck, etc. etc. And I feel like this is a place where I can talk about anything and feel comfortable doing it.

And I don't want this board to fall apart. I haven't been a member for as long as a lot of you here, but this place still means a lot to me and I would be really sad if some of you guys left.

I know there have been some...problems, and I've sort of tried to stay out of them. I think what's most important here is friendship, and if there's one or two people that piss you off, ignore them. I know boards that have that feature, actually, where you can not see posts made by certain members if you want.

That's all I have to say, really. And Crow, if you need some time away, fine...but I hope you come back. I don't think I really got to know you as well as I wanted to. Or a lot of people here for that matter.

OK, same thing with me. I've been in many Beatles forums filled with mostly bigheaded, babyboomer adults who boss youngun's around and swear and call eachother names and many people leave because of this (I was one of the people who left because these ADULTS were swearing at eachother, like they were little kindergarteners fighting over a toy or something!), and believe me, I loved these people so much (The people who weren't doing those things, just to clear that up) - and I found LIB one day, looked around, lurked, read the messages, and decided I might as well stay. Why? It was calm and I could laugh my head off for hours here just reading everything. You guys are like me, we fit together.

There was none of that I-am-a-bigger-Beatlefan-than-thou-so-you-should-just-shut-up-and-listen-to-me kind of crap going on here, no one calling each other names, no putting downage, no fussing and fighting my friends. None of that. None. That's why I joined LIB.

I've been here for two months, and I am addicted to the place. OK, not the place, it's the PEOPLE who I'm addicted to, believe me, I like every one one of you, but there are some people who spoil things on here.

Everyone I've met here is so friendly, and the reason for a board community is to share their knowledge and interests with other people who have the same interests - Beatles, fun, life, whatever.

Please, don't leave just because of a few people, it's just a FEW PEOPLE, we can ignore them or try to knock some courtesy into their heads.

And I'm sorry to Crow that she had to fly away because of the comments made here, I just hope she can come back. I never talked to her but she was a really awesome person.

This is honestly one of the best forums I've ever been to, and that's saying alot in my mind. It's hilarious here, I don't want that hilarity to go. It's my morning coffee. My stimulant, my reason to live and laugh (OK, so I have no life whatsoever).

WE NEED TO LAUGH AGAIN!!!! ;D

i registered and i never got a password to my email like it said that it would. Any help with that then I am on board I do not know JohnLennon or Crow but maybe if JohnLennon posted a thread that was kissing Crows a** then maybe she will see it and come back.

[Icee]

I don't think Crow would come back just because there was a thread kissing her ass.

You really don't understand JulianLennon or JohnLennon (which I find hilarious, because I believe you two are the same person. And don't doubt we can prove it), you just don't seem to understand anything we're saying here. and I doubt you ever will.

[Rivellaisatworksocantlogin]

Yes I agree with Sarah here. You are just too much taking care of each others asses. I mean...I don't know...it's just too much of a coincidence that two members with almost the same name register. Forgive me if I'm wrong.

Crow won't come back if there's a thread where we all can kiss her ass. Remember Crow is not holy!
Crow is just a normal girl who also likes to have fun on this site.
And you don't have to agree with anyone anytime. i mean....I've had some arguements with other members here as well, but it was never very hostile.

So maybe we can all just let this rest now. I don't think anyone is getting any fun out of this and I believe that's what this board is also about. Having fun with other beatles fans.

[Icee]

Agreed it's time to forget about this and move on.

So...*Hugs* Jan...back to the Fight Club? XD

[Jantina]

*Hugs* Yes sarah, great idea!!!

Hmm...isn't that deleted yet? ;D

[me]

Oh Sarah....I just noticed your avatar. hahahaha

[LongTallCecilia]

Hi guys, I'm a bit late for the *ahem* party. So a late *hugs* from me.
