meanwhile the fest promoter "SFX" is on the ropes, selling its assets at a fire sale and its stock has plummeted:

Certainly not nice, I booted myself. My posts were all truthful in the moment. I don't need to kiss lockn butt, or yours. You guys are abusive if someone disagrees. Truly. I paid for a fest and it was subpar. Some parts were ok, but it was not perfect. Never mind now some of you have integrated my sentiments into your posts. Like paid for 4 days and got 3. Glad I could sneak a peak in here again. Just to be abused once more by some unknown nutso "fan". I will reiterate again, if anywhere else I don't get what I pay for it is foul business practice. And to be fair the ticket company was willing to hear my complaint and possibly refund me. But I bought from stub hub. So whatever. I booted myself. Still don't get why you find it necessary to defend lockn at the expense of human emotion, free speech and fair business, but die hards are a sensitive bunch. Or just mean. Please don't boot me, worfy poo. Give me a break. 
This is not niceSo this is like my third time using the site on a real computer, and its impressive. Lot more info and ease of access. But, that isn't my purpose here, I saw two deleted members, Loser, and Jaberzz and wonder if it was this lively discourse that set them off or if Worf just gave them the boot. I think one of them I got a little crisp with when all this started and was going to apologize because he echoed my road dogs bitching and I was tired of it, but now that I read the whole thread I am glad Worf booted them (please don't boot me Worf)

Wow, this again? Don't be Shitty to Worf he didn't do anything, I threw him infront of the bus, in jest. He had resigned as a moderator long before this.
If you want free speech give it to others too. All that you need to realize is that our opinions differ, I am going to say what I think and you can too. I think I already bought next years tickets and if that makes me a nutso fan I'm in good company 'round here. Hope that refund thing and (insert pc font and bracket this in IMO's) such high expectations work out for you. BYW you don't have to sneak to peek we're pretty open here. As for being mean, I think your too sensitive, and yeah, I can be a bit abrasive but I consider that a quality in most circumstances.
feel your way back the day before

At the risk of keeping this thread going, Estprof nailed it. There are very few instances I've witnessed on this board where people were just straight up "mean." Passionately arguing an opinion does not equate to "mean." Jabs, I think you're too sensitive for free speech. You can't take it so personally when people disagree with you. You have the right to request a refund or complain about what you missed out on. I do, however, reserve the right to tell you why I think you're wrong and that I don't think you should. Yes, many of us here are "super fans." So what? What's wrong with being passionate about something? Do we highlight the ups and ignore some of the downs? Sure. We're biased. So sue us. We love this festival and we're willing to put up with some shit to see the best festival lineup in the world every year.Wow, this again?

We passionately defend free speech here. If that's too much to handle without taking it personally, then you are free to go. But please, do not come back here every month and post from a guest account. You are welcome to rejoin our community if you like. I give you my personal guarantee that if you decide to make an account, as long as you aren't abusive, you will not be removed.
