New forum

Well I figured this might alleviate some of the mess that Main becomes with all the "pro-Mike, who cares about Mike discussions." We can put them all here.

BTW if you really don't want to get into the Mike debate, and want to complain about people supporting him still, and missing his presence, then I wouldn't suggest using this forum.

I think Mike's 30 years in Van Halen have earned him a forum on the site. He definitely deserves it.

Great idea, Brett!

Respekt.

I'm wondering if you'll give Wolfgang a forum if he is good? I know this is your board, Brett, so you are free to do whatever, of course. I just wonder what this place will be like if Wolfgang is really talented. Surely, people will bitch, but would he get respect from those pissed over the Mike thing?

Joe, who cares. Does Gary Cherone have a forum? Does Alex? The separate forums were for previous members of the band. Cherone doesn't warrant an entire forum, Mike does.

It's simple.

Enough with what Wolfie deserves. This has NOTHING to do with how good he is. I don't get your corrolation. It's funny I start a forum to take the shit out of the other forums, and you guys just bring it in here too.

Why?

Because they're not particularly digging the fact you're supporting Mike instead of VH 4.

I have ZERO issues with Dave (apart from slight hypocrisy on his part) and even Wolfie. I have a big problem with Eddie Van Halfass however. That's why I am not supporting VH 4. I will support it on the site as it is warranted.

Its funny when people give the "I respect your opinion, but..." bullshit and then say something like that, blatantly proving they DON'T respect the opinion whatsoever.

As webbie of virtually the biggest VH tribute site on the 'net, I expect they'd love for you to get more behind this project. They're missing the facts that you're still supporting the band by offering a ticket link for the tour as well as free and unlimited publicity despite your misgivings regarding Edward's recent decisions.

Sheesh, Brett, get with the program. Just tell everyone you'll go to a show so we can all get on with our lives.
