Well MY point was that any criticism here wouldn't be read by him.

Quote:My point was not to say that we direct where they head musically, but to offer suggestion.

Of course but as I said above ^

I'm still not seeing it, though. BUT I guess that's the funny thing about the internet. You only get the text. You don't get the tone, the facial expression, or anything like that. I'll touch up on that later in the post though.

Indeed we don't. We should all watch how we word things, shouldn't we? :)

Quote:I don't get what you mean by "tearing apart." Going to the point I made above, it's hard to tell over the internet the tones they're attempting to convey. When I complain about the cover arts, people, I think, tend to get the wrong impression that I'm saying it in a very angry manner, but in actuality, I have a smile face when I say it. I see the naked women that I don't like to see and think "OH GOD DAMN IT! XD - I CAN'T WIN!" and I have a good laugh about it. I'm not trying to bring VAMPS down at all. I mean, sure I would rather see HYDE and K.A.Z, but still. It's nothing that I can't look past.

Tearing apart, bashing, etc. It seems as if we are going around in circles and my eyes hurt so I will just say this:

I hate your ***ing guts :D

^ is passive aggressive to me. It is not seen as "I'm just kidding guys" so smilie faces, or smiles don't convey the message.

Quote:Considering you can't see why the FAITH criticism is there, also calling it a "comparison" is waaaaaaay off, I'm pretty sure you did. =/

Why IS the Faith criticism in the BEAST thread if not to compare it? In any case, I will not go back and read anything. I wasn't really directing my initial response to you anyway. I WAS directing the

"BEAST IS THE BEST SHIT" to you, but I already explained why, and if you missed that you can go back and read my response.

Final words: Critique =/= bashing and I'm sick of people complaining and whining about how Vamps didn't do what I wanted! Or Vamps aren't deep or speshul or there's too much Engrish that was translated!

That's all :)
