Maybe you could start a thread or something Mr. Guest. You might want to register yourself as well.
Do you have any kinks related stories?

you dont need to spread your hatred towards the grey board everywhere here.... Hear hear! As for whether Ray sanctions the grey board or not - b*llocks to him I say! It's there for the fans - I go for the people and the conversation, not because it has Ray's blessing or not. It's no longer an 'official' site therefore who cares what Ray thinks about it? Let's face it, that message board was the best thing about that site. Our sources, who shall remain nameless, kept us up to date with new tour dates and contact details for the venues, not the official site. As I've said before, Ray doesn't seem to consider a gig 'confirmed' until he's turned up. And maybe not even then. As such, confirmed dates only appeared on the website perhaps only weeks before the date of the gig, although the venues had had the tickets on-sale for months. If a 'new' fan or non-internet/forum-involved fan came to the Official site looking for information they wouldn't have a cat in hells chance of gettin a decent seat. It was these anonymous sources, NOT Ray, that kept us informed. And I happen to know that said sources work da-mn hard, emailing and phoning venues on an almost daily basis to see if any more dates had appeared, keeping up with google alerts, and pestering Konk for confirmation of gigs. And do said sources sit on the information, and keep the best seats to themselves? No, they have graciously shared with the rest of the internet community, keeping these messageboards, as well as Dave Emlen's mighty site, up to date for the benefit of all. And our sources also provide us with facts, not a bunch of 'oh well I know someone who overheard someone telling someone else that Ray might have said to....' stories who mostly prove groundless or unprovable. So, in essence, who cares if Ray doesn't want people to use the grey board? It's not his call any more! His string of sites have done precious little for us fans anyway - raydavies.com wasn't update for OVER TWO years before it disappeared without warning. Then raydavies.net was set up, and that too disappeared without trace and even less warning. And now raydavies.info has gone, with little explanation. So keep the interlopers, I say, We've been the ones to keep that place alive over the, what, 3 years it's been in existance? So people don't always agree. Big deal, that how life goes. But if you don't agree, stop squabbling and causing petty flame wars. It's just a message board. If you disagree, form a structured argument without pathetic name-calling. If you still don't agree, move on, stop reading. exkaliber, i only said, frank should stop with that, because i like the grey board, and i really dont care if its official or not, or if ray wants us to use it. i am sure ray has better things to do than surfing the net. i only want the grey board, with all the members i kow there. i was never curious about your opinion. ok? and you can truly f*** off with your "hear hear"

Also, why should frank stop posting his opinion here just because you 'like the grey board'? As this is the Official Kinks Fan Club board, other fans will have differing opinions to yours; they have the right to and will post their opinions, whether you are curious or not, whether you agree with their opinions or not. You may also want to read the terms of membership of this board as you agreed, when you became a member, that you would not post any material which is abusive, vulgar, hateful, obscene or profane. It doesn't help the continued existence of any board to post such messages, please let's all remember why we're here in the first place and focus on what we have in common, instead of our differences. Of course, opinions will differ but what's the line about everybody got the right to speak their mind?

Franzie, I think what Guest is trying to say is that I think Exkali was trying to back up what you were saying. Thats all.

FRanzie, in the US we often define ourselves by the country our ancestors came from, no matter how many generations ago. Unless you're Native American, none of us can truly say we're "US/Anything."
