Just goes to show that word does get back to the band about the forum. Either they do come read it or someone tells then about it. Either way, if they're not man enough to handle critisism, then maybe they should try a different career. Screw 'em. The forum stays. With or without them. There's plenty more metal to go around. And with real men playing real instruments.

So sad. And to think that the people they are trying to rid themselves of are the very fans who got them as far as they did. I can't tell you how many people I've turned onto this band in the past. Oh well, screw them. They better hope they never need fans like me to support them, cause they blew it!

Accept:
- wanted to show how they appreciate their fans by making this "vip"-thing
U.D.O.:
- wanted to show how they appreciate their fans by deleting the 7-year-old forum from their website.

My suggestion is to make something about this. A new beginning, a rebirth. Why not remake this forum to a metalforum? New name, new colors, the same members?
Just a thought...

Great idea, Buk. I support it.
From the other hand, regardless of UDO management politics , attitude to music better stay the same. Udo did and is doing the great rocking events . I wish band all the best and continue appreciate their music.
The Christ commandment is " Make no idol" . Making an idol out of man we make bad for us and for him.

get out of my head buk!! hahaha i was thinking the same thing. and yes, the comparison with Accept is amazing isn't it? match up the numbers...
Accept -
1. VIP entrance for fans 2. massive promotion, radio appearances, all over facebook and any other media that will have them 3. incredible album full of instant classics 4. comeback album of the year, album of the year 5. taking time to talk and listen to fans, showing up in their own fan forum and talking to fans - not just answering questions, when they do answer questions - the answers are not just short one word or one sentence answers 6. realizing that they couldn't do it by themselves and hiring an outside producer and a top ranked one at that
u.d.o. - 1.they remove the link to their fan forum because a couple of the fans don't like the new album and aren't afraid to say so 2. udo does a bad video in the back parking lot of the record company asking fans to buy the album and his words are covered up by traffic noise 3. rev-raptor - an album full of rejected songs from the terrible album "dominator" before it. some of the songs are considered to "not suck as bad as some of the other bad songs". songs about robots and machines taking over the earth like the other 5 or 6 albums before it. 4. rev-raptor - hits the charts in 4(?) countries. doesn't hit the chart in 190 countries 5. udo or any other band member hasn't shown up in this forum in many years. i think igor came here once or twice. it's been so long i can't remember 6. has had the same producer for 21 years, since faceless world in 1990
hahaha and they wonder why i'm so pissed off about the direction the band is going!! especially after seeing first hand the first class way that Accept does everything. it was an eye opening spring for me!

thanks! it's appreciated! we can also start spreading the word that this forum will be more than just a udo forum now so maybe the membership will climb more too.
