Great White, no one is going to bash you for making an intelligent posting (whether it's agreed with or not). If you state something in a nasty manner or out of plain ignorance, then yes, bashing will occur. A great example of why bashing would occur is by looking at the beginning of this thread. Read the first couple of pages of it. There are a ton of good reasons why the person who started this thread got bashed for their comments. On the flip side, people here do seem to in fact, respect those who do not care for a particular JP album(s). For example, I refuse to listen to any of the Ripper-era material b/c it's not Rob on vocals. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Great White from Monday, July 14, 2008 3:37:03 PM)

Even though I don't like this album it doesn't make me any less a fan than I was before this album came out. I didn't get the bands name tattoo'd on me for the hell of it you know. Funny, I remember back in the early eighties going to priest concerts and it seemed to me that I was the only female fan there, all until Turbo came along, then every chick that was out there jumped on the wagon and went to the concert. I was disgusted because they were all fake fans and sure shit, when Priest went back to the style they were really known for all the "fans" that came with turbo, with the odd exception, all of a sudden weren't fans anymore. Priest could put out any sort of album and I'd still stand by them, I might not like it, but I'm such a hard core fan, I'll never fall by the wayside. Edited at: Monday, July 14, 2008 3:38:58 PM
