Don't feed them, don't greet them, don't become their prey. There are not 1000s over on these forums, not even close. There are maybe two dozen at best who are causing the commotion, and a whole bunch of bystanders, who have a much more diverse perspective, but stay mostly out of that line of fire. Who knows what they really think. Trolls cannot be chased away by arguments, they can be ridiculed away, but over on those sites, that is not worth the effort, imo, especially for us outsiders. Who cares what such half-dead site members think. When I first found out that VotefortheWorst - members were creating 2 users on QOL (one pretending to be an over the top Glambert, making all Glamberts look ridiculous, and the other user to play a Freddie defender), once I sorted that one out, I was done. Even with reading. I never posted anyways. Normal members cannot fight that nonsense with their own counter-arguments, they will just feed such a troll. Moderators can, if they want to step in, which does not seem to be the case over there. Don't waste your time. And here is a little poem about all this: The TrollAuthor: Jack Prelutsky Be wary of the loathsome troll that slyly lies in wait to drag you to his dingy hole and put you on his plate.
His blood is black and boiling hot, he gurgles ghastly groans. He'll cook you in his dinner pot, your skin, your flesh, your bones.
He'll catch your arms and clutch your legs and grind you to a pulp, then swallow you like scrambled eggs-- gobble! gobble! gulp!
So watch your steps when next you go upon a pleasant stroll, or you might end up in the pit below as supper for the troll. (found at this link: www.angelfire.com/mi2/dreco/Poems/Page48.html - I kindly fixed the spelling for them though...)

So sad for you, Nica. i think anyone here must identify with loving someone in the public eye but unknown to us personally. The love is still real. Glad that you got he chance to hear him many times - hope it sustains you.

Just saw tail end of thread about fans at QOL. I don't understand the need to defend Adam to Q's own fans on their own website. Why should they be forced to admit something they don't want to? If its their website, they're welcome to their own thoughts/opinions. Not like they are coming here and posting about Adam. They want to see Q and AL AND are aware that means Adam. No need name calling or baiting those people. Say what they want, Brian and Roger are used to it and it seems unnecessary to have so much angst. It shouldn't be that important. We all get to see/hear Adam and support him in his career and I don't understand the need to post on QOL by Adam's fans. They are entitled to express their views/opinions on their own website QOL. It doesn't diminish Adam's talents in the least. Bottom line, they are still going to spend their money, which benefits Adam, in order to see/hear Q play. Other peoples opinion shouldn't matter so much to Adam's fans. I'm thankful for the chance to see and hear Adam perform around the world. So we already won.

Other peoples opinion shouldn't matter so much to Adam's fans. I'm thankful for the chance to see and hear Adam perform around the world. So we already won. I think you are completely right in most of what you said. Only two things ( I‘m a frequent reader on both Queen- sides, since I am interested in the „old Queen“ as well, though I don’t have an account on Queenzone and almost never interact on QOL): - most of the so called trolls actually never saw a show with Adam and don’t have the intention to do so. They are not spending their money ( which is ok!).The ones who did it, have their opinions and can discuss in a mannered way ( some more some less, but most of them are ok.). - the discussion is in The „Queen +Adam Lambert“ section of the forum. So going there and posting as a Glambert about QAL should be possible without getting attacked. Personally I find it sad, that Queen‘s own official forum is almost dead. I talked with a longterm active member via pm last week about it. The QAL section is often the only one, where new people are coming and they get almost instantly attacked ,if they post pro QAL ( not only Adam). I think it is a shame how Queen-fans are presented there and I know many decent people, who left, because of it. But as long as the people in charge don’t care about it, the really great and successful tour can’t be discussed in their own forum.
