Oh yes, that's why I won't write a question about it.

yeah, and now the "fan-forum not necessary anymore" on facebook isn't there anymore either... I have feeling that this band is going down and they have no intention to change the way... And it's so sad to realize it.

I am normally an optimist, but when your heroes keep letting you down, that kinda tears on your soul

I would like to ask in the guestbook a question: what about people who do not have a facebook or a twitter account and therefore are not able to keep a contact online to people. This forum is a good place for that. I haven't ever seen the band answering to guestbook writings. Don´t waste your time. The UDO attitude is very clear: we are NOTHING!!! I put a post at guestbook, I talked about I support UDO despite my critics because I had the new album... what´s their answer? My post was deleted. But I say one thing: if UDO thinks they are IRON MAIDEN... they are very WRONG doing this with the FANS

As Mika, neither I am surprised at all... Which band needs fans like us? The most of us are just pain in the a$$ of .U.D.O. don't you guys think?
And yes, we can say ACCEPT is cool and fan friendly but as far as I know Gaby asked the admins of the ACCEPT forum to keep that place clear - if you know what I mean...
The two things that disturbe me are the big fat LIE about the reasons and the censorship... Yes, Rikke I commented the news on FaceBook and in the guestbook but all of my comments were deleted in an hour. Wrote a mail to Maikel but no answer from him... Dunno what happened to him. I have always thought of him as a Friend of mine - even though our opinions were different many times... But man, for example Mika and I are fire and water but there have never been the smallest fight between us...
I'm still a fan of Udo Dirkschneider but not a fan of .U.D.O. anymore... I wouldn't go to the show this autumn... but I have the tickets already...

Gaby says it's ok to steam off about opinions but NOT to make any personal insults. A very big difference if you ask me... The more I think about this I think it is Maikel's idea/decision... Because the members of U.D.O. themselves seems to be unaware of what is written on this forum... But of course... what the h-e-l-l do I Know...

Well, see it from they're point of view, people hear the new UDO album, they like it and decide to check out their website. They see a link to the forum and think "hey, a chance to share my optimistical with other people who sahre my passion" and they end up listening to us talking about how dissapointed we are in the b.a.n.d. We're not the only dissapointed people out there folks, we feel like the band let us down while the new fans feel like this forum is letting the band down

well, if you can't post your true feelings or opinions about something then why even bother if you're going to have a place that only kisses the b.a.n.d.s. a$$? that's why the guestbook is so d**ned boring! it's nothing more than a censored vanilla pile of garbage.

I agree with You, Oddie and John. Some fans here found RevRaptor good.
In fact it was managent to decide what is better- to let fans here to express their opinions free or to let only positive ones. Just ike they do on twitter and so on.
Trying to hide the truth- what are they doing? This censorship is an evident reputational mistake. But I think that we should not turn our backs to the band.
I probably think that forummembers lost about to nothing- forum is active ( thanks to John).

I know. F*ck censorship, feel like quoting a famous movie here "You can't handle the truth!" I'm just trying to see both sides, even though I'm fighting for one side right now
