Just a quick word my friends..... I noticed that again sometimes the atmosphere is getting a little hostile..... PLEASE we are all adults and love to have our democratic views and opinions.. so lets respect the differing views and opinions of others without making personal comments or insults... nothing specific.. just a general request.. We don't want to scare off all the new members that we will surely have once the new album is released.... :claps
I know sometimes its difficult to stay cool when you read something that you dont like or disagree with but I have seen so many forums disintegrate because of fighting...
Our administrator works so hard here to bring us this fantastic site and we should not make her job more difficult.. she has enough to do without being our mother also
Soon hopefully there will belots to discuss and lots to look forward to..
Thankyou..

I completely agree with nukleopatra. It is wonderful foruum, which allows us to state the opinion, and to communicate with each other! Nika, thank to you for it! Let's be friends:flower:

I’m sorry, David… I must specify in case if just anyone needs me here. A couple of days ago Àëåêñ(from Minsk) has made a very rude remark concerning female state of mind (and even called it unbalanced). He has broken the rules of the forum, which rules he approved and wanted so much himself. I persist he to apologize in public (that same in public how in public he’s made an insult) for his behavour and try not to fall into the same pit once more.
Why I’m so stubborn? I explain now. In case if he’s got away with that scurvy trick, many of us will know – whoever can call any of you here (on the forum) a sort of histerical person just because of differing your points of view, and no matter you are insulted… The insulting message may be just deleted after reading it by hundreds of foruumists, but the churl isn’t even blamed and is not going to apologize. Each your statement may be called as stupid of blind fanatic, you may be called an idiot… And if you’ll just try to defend your personal dignity, you’ll be called as a scandal-maker. The best for you what could happen is just deleting the message insulting you. But just after a lot of people read it (and some of them lustfully grinning).
So, I exactly persist Àëåêñ to apologize here in public for his insulting remark. I persist he to refrain from that nasty mode of discussion if he is a true man as he considers himself.

Yes. Exactly in order all members (old and new) not to be scared that their sincere words might lead to insulting them with impunity I’m doing here my ultimate attempt to get a result. It’s not only me who needs such a result. Each foruumist needs it. And Àëåêñ himself too. And I deliberately do it here in public in order all foruumists see the result and make their own conclusions.
Thank you, David, for all your nice words and for your attempts to ease the atmosphere. I just think that if we let things pass their own way we hardly will come to good results. Anyway, I’m grateful that you’ve started this topic. I myself hardly would start just anything here anymore… And due to this topic started by you I have this opportunity to make my ultimate attempt. Thank you once more.
Sincerely yours

and I would add this... whenever we notice that atmosphere is becoming little hostile, we should remember that we all gathered here because we have ONE , but important thing in common : we are all Vacuum fans !
I'm starting with myself ... I'll try to remember more often these lines from a rap song :
"Actions have reactions, don't be quick to judge You may not know the harships people don't speak of It's best to step back, and observe with couth For we all must meet our moment of truth"
_______________________________________ Bring on the clouds Let the raindance begin
sometimes in the heat of the moment it is easy to fire of an attack on someone and also in some cases to make that personal... but it is also better sometimes to take the higher ground and stand back and say nothing.... fuel makes the fire burn more fiercely,, as humans we are all different and some people on here make a huge effort to post in English and for that i am grateful and sometimes its easy to misunderstand what people say... so if we all think before we open our mouth this forum will be a great place to be for a long time and also Nika will save a fortune on headache pills
