So, tired cliches excuse gauche, ill-informed rudeness on this board. Good to know.

I'll clear things up for you Mr. Easter. I do own all of Tourniquet's albums except for the acoustic one, so I've enjoyed something about the band in one way or another over the years, although in 7 years time of no activity, so many other bands have interested me more. The fact that I don't like your vocals for the most part and the Kickstart idea is my own personal opinion, not some sort of ill-informed rudeness. Your post above validates my previous post about not liking your attitude. Let's hope you can stick around here on the board regularly and get to know the personalities to appreciate our posts rather than get defensive about all things Tourniquet.

With that said, I will check out the new album when it comes out as I also previously stated. It's just not important enough for me to pay up now to have it produced.

I do believe that's the first time I've ever seen the term "gauche" used on this forum.

Thanks. We appreciate it, and I'm glad you've been ministered to/entertained.

Totally understandable.

You're are certainly entitled to your opinion concerning my vocals and the Kickstarter project, however, your posts - specifically regarding the Kickstarter project indicate a lack of knowledge about how the industry works and/or a willingly ignorant perspective (read: you didn't read the proposal, but that's not gonna stop you from talking about it) of the Kickstarter project. That would qualify - as do other posts in this thread - as ill-informend and rude.

And you've just validated my post about rudeness. I don't how it's alright for you (or Stender, or ToB, or bassman, or Lurideth, or anyone else) to have an opinion, but if I have one an add it to the mix, I'm arrogant.

I'll stick around, but it's not because you've been so welcoming. I know a good number of the posters from other boards, and I've got a good idea of their personalities. As to Tourniquet, it's not a matter of getting defensive. Honestly, I get a kick out of seeing how people react to us - both the good and the bad reactions. Still, when it starts getting personal, when it's not about the music, I'm not going to just sit it out.

So basically, when you feel people disrespect you, you reply with more disrespect? You really fell that is going to solve any "problems"? Let's just say that this won't fly around here!

Let's see if you can inteact about other things then TqT, because this thread is now closed!
