Red alert: I am new to this board (I don't usually "do" fandom forums but I'm making an exception), but we are being completely outnumbered on the QueenZone forums! Nobody there says that Adam is a rockstar and anyone defending him is being completely shunned by domineering Queenazis who hate Adam! I urge anyone here to make an account and help prove our point! It is free and very easy to write over there. It is completely unfair!! Welcome to ATop! As far as what happens on Queen forums it is my opinion that trying to convince members to embrace and love Adam, or even acknowledge that Adam is the only reason Brian and Roger are doing these massive, theatrical, awesome concerts around the world is a sisyphean task. (In Greek mythology Sisyphus was the king of Ephyra (now known as Corinth). He is forced by the gods to roll an immense boulder up a hill, only to watch it come back to hit him, repeating this action for eternity. Through the classical influence on modern culture, tasks that are both laborious and futile are therefore described as Sisyphean.)Brian has repeatedly called Adam the Gift from God and raved about him as a vocalist, a frontman, an artist and a person. Roger has called Adam "one in a billion." He has said they wouldn't work with any other vocalist after Adam. There are thousands of videos of their performances together, and it is visually obvious how much they are enjoying working together. They have both said Freddie would be very impressed with Adam and loved what they are all doing now. If the actual members of Queen cannot convince the naysayers, an Adam fan posting arguments in Adam's favor will not succeed. In fact, in the past such Glamberts have pissed off the Queen/Freddie fans so that they hate Adam even more. Do what you feel is right about the forum, but don't be surprised if Adamtopians do not post there. I think it has been tried, and failed multiple times.

I don't think it will help if we Fans "push it" on those who have not excepted Adam by now...might do more harm than good...meanwhile Adam is exposed to big audiences, gets a musical training as in performing 1000% percent live, without Click-track, he's learning a thing or two about song writing/composition and who knows what else...it's their loss really ...what is 2000 people (just a guess) on these boards, against over 10.000 each concert...oh and the reviews are positive as well...

Most Adam fans and Queen fans attending the concerts don't care what those bitter people think. Adam is a rockstar and he proves it every time he steps out on that stage. I went there a while back but could not stand the hate directed at Adam because he was getting great accolades for his vocal ability and stage presence. They have their Queen tapes and videos with Freddie to listen to but Freddie is not coming back. Adam is the frontman now and filling arenas with Queen and that will not change. And he is great. Yes, but we have no representation there whatsoever. Adam fans went to his defense so valiantly in 2012 over at QOL but now there is a whole anti-AL army and we aren't doing anything about it? We must DO SOMETHING! There‘s no „army“ against Adam on Queenzone. I‘m reading there regularly. It’s only a few people and some of them love to provoke. Nobody will change their opinions. They’re always the same people. By now, most people, even the Queen-fans ignore them. Or they left the forum entirely. That‘s even worse on Queen-Online. There the forum is almost dead, because even the moderators are anti Adam and let that show. All they got is a dead forum, because all the decent people left. There is nothing to win for Adam.

Often when I feel a little down I go to this video and watch it around the 2 minute mark. Over and over again... And after all these years still feel the magic, still feel these seconds are the beginning of something so unique and so utterly perfect, that it's almost unreal. Makes me teary eyed every single time It was a beautiful moment and it makes me feel quite emotional too. We have celebrated many milestones for Adam so far, and there will be more to come! I am really THANKFUL for Adam. He has enlightened, inspired, and entertained me like no other. He's my rock star, my pop prince, and my diva. I thanked him with a tweet today as he won't be home celebrating Thanksgiving.

Guys, it is 11-1 on there. If we can get at least five of us to go make our point, we probably can make a stand in a place where they don't seem to ban peopl at all....... The Queenazis are so overbearing and think that Freddie is the only reason keeping Queen alive but he died like 25 years ago and he is not even that good of a vocalist live or in a record!!!

Welcome to atop alfanforever! I know why you want to go to the QOL forum and try to convince the members there that Adam is a gift from god, which he really is. It is rational to think positive about Adam, because he is just unbelievably good in what he does. But there is no rationality if it comes to music. Just a lot of feelings. But at some point it became cool to „hate“ Adam, at least in the hardcore Queen forums. And there is nothing what anyone can do about it. So I tend to ignore these people and just let them be bitter. I am on cloud nine if it comes to QAL and in my heart there is room for Freddie AND Adam, and I pity those who can‘t enjoy the miracle of QAL...
