Dear Queen Fan and QZ-er, Would you do me a favour please, and paste ths reply on QZ to Lester Burnham... TO LESTER - NO CHARM - BURNHAM (and a note to PoPpy at the end) YOU WROTE... Greg, you ignorant little fuck, Poppy was not the one who said she detested you - it was radio_what's_new. How many times does it need to be pointed out to you before it seeps through your skull and finally clicks? LESTER, you are an even more ignorant fuck (your words) than first appeared. HOW MANY MORE TIMES BEFORE YOU SEE that I have gone on the record - TWO DAYS AGO, you moron, on QZ to say that I now know it wasn't the lovely Poppy who said she "detested me", but that it WAS her that pasted in that quote to me on her thread. Therefore she obviously agreed with the sentiment, even if she did not actually conceive it. You didn't read that then, you ignorant twat!!! THIS IS WHAT I SAID.... To Poppy... In YOUR 'thing', I read, from you... ............................................................. Dear Mr Brooks, I wonder what mr. Brian May, who is known for his kind way of communicating to his fans, and who pays your salary, should think of you...You are calling people who dare to have an opinion: -Plonkers -pleb -dick-heads -Simple people -shit head -weirdos -morons You should be ashamed of yourself...I detest you. Grow up, and learn to receive feedback. What did you espect? A statue? ..................................................... Now you tell me that those words came from elsewhere, but YOU quoted them Poppy. YOU used them in YOUR thread. That means that you agreed with the sentiment. Otherwise why would you have quoted it???? I don't owe you an apology. YOU quoted that "I detest you" thing, and now you are hurt that I came back at you over it. You can't have it both ways. YOU quoted it at me, so you have to live with it. "I detest you" is a spiteful and stupid thing to write or quote to me or anyone. This is just a music related site after all. Then you say that "it hurt" what i wrote to you. You amaze me. I don't set out to hurt anyone, i hate that word and the whole concept of one person hating/detesting another... especially when you have never met me - or if you have you do not know anything about me. YOU quoted it. And even quoting such a thing, in my opinion, doesn't make you a very nice or sensitive person, on the face of it, does it? Go on, pick fault with that, instead of apologising. GB A BRAND NEW COMMENT TO POPPY... Poppy... i don't think you are a nasty person, for what it's worth, but you did use that quote in a thread aimed at me, so you have to take the consequences on the chin - just like I have to. But don't take it too personally and NEVER let it... me... or anyone on QZ get to you, or hurt you. Seriously, it's only a little chat room thing, nothing significant. You seem too sensitive to be involved here. |

Okay. It's time to put this to rest, for fuck's sake. Can we stop creating new threads about Greg? The man has lit the bag of shit, knocked on the front door, and ran off to hide in the bushes to watch everyone scramble. |
| Saint Jiub 29.05.2006 22:45 |
So he sent a boy to do man's job, a job he should have done himself. I guess that is what is to be expected from GB. Oh well, at least he is trying to reconnect with the youth Queen fan demographic he degraded only a few short days ago. |
| The Real Wizard 30.05.2006 01:42 |
Hey Poopdud, what's the email address Greg emailed you from? In case there isn't concrete proof that this is the real Greg Brooks, you could provide it.

Queen Archivist is the real GB but I somehow don't believe he sent this email. "Dear Queen Fan and QZer "... no, very unlikely. |
| MOANZONE TWAT 30.05.2006 06:23 |
YV, i trust your judgement about the Queen Archivist being the real GB, but there is something that i MUST point out.... First of all, the type of English that this person is using (the word structure and type of slang words used) is resemblant to an American from the East Coast, and the way this person retaliates is too close to a juvenile. Now the reason i point this out is one of my Business Postion's is a Federal Investigator, so i do this on a regular basis, as far as seeing through people without even seeing them, by reading them and so forth. If someone can get and IP address i can find out, or i may just get it myself, not that i really care, i just can't stand posers. Edit: This (part of the supposed email from GB) A BRAND NEW COMMENT TO POPPY... Poppy... i don't think you are a nasty person, for what it's worth, but you did use that quote in a thread aimed at me, so you have to take the consequences on the chin - just like I have to. But don't take it too personally and NEVER let it... me... or anyone on QZ get to you, or hurt you. Seriously, it's only a little chat room thing, nothing significant. You seem too sensitive to be involved here. This was clearly written NOT by GB, this was written by a East Coast American! Probabally around Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Or Virgina (Likely Western part of Virgina or Eastern part of West Virginia) |

Usually, I do not care if someone uses a fake identity but if someone would pose as the Queen Archivist and act like he actually acts, it would be irresponsible to leave the users in the dark about an imposter. Mainly, it would be irresponsible to Queen to let someone act like this without telling the users he is an imposter and not Queen's actual representative. Queen Archivist is Greg Brooks. |

Why the hell am I too sensitive? ..I get the feeling that this email isn't written by Greg Brooks... so...I'll go back to my ignoring.. |

Queen Archivist is Greg Brooks.I just have to call it as i see it, i respect your belief, but i have met GB, and he didn't act like this or talk in the structure as posted here, i expressed my argument to him when i met him, and different results. I really don't care if it is or isn't GB, i just know that this supposed email was NOT from the real GB. I will contact Bri and get him involved because he needs to be more active in the fan world, especially when (if it is GB) a non-statutory employee acts like this to their consumer. Very unprofessional. |
| YourValentine 30.05.2006 07:38 |
It's not my "belief", you know, it's a fact. GB has not posted here for the first time. Last time he also emailed the website owner, so you can be 100% sure that this poster is in fact Greg Brooks (but I don't believe he sent this email) As to emailing Brian, I think you will waste your time. Last time many users sent me emails and told me that they emailed Brian and complained about the abusive behaviour but none of them ever got an answer. In fact, I never heard a word of regret from anyone in QP except for Jen, who is like a friend to me and she spoke for herself and not Brian. I think it's safe to assume that Brian thinks the behaviour of his representative is perfectly okay or at least not worth the trouble. You say that the attitude in real life is so much different than on the net and this is my experience too. In fact, I met GB in Vlaardingen in 2004 only days before he started this topic about me and there was no indication that he would behave like an internet troll. We had a very normal, decent conversation. Of course, he did not know I am "YV". Some people just do not understand that they either need to be anonymous on the net or if they use their real name, they will be judged for what they say on the net. John Stuart, for example, always used his real name and he exposed himself to personal criticism with each of his messages - but other that GB, he always shared information, never abused other people and is therefore one of the most respected members of this board - and if I ever should meet him in real life I will be honoured. On the other hand my respect for GB is really zero. |

Ok i think you have missed my original point! I am talking about this email! Btw, how are you gonna say that me contacting Brian will have no effect? First of all, you know nothing about me at all, in fact i talk to Brian on a periodic basis, why is pretty much not anyone here's business, but anyways, if Brian tolerates this (which i highly doubt) then i would tell him the same thing... fuck you. I mean i have spent over $100,000 on Queen things throughout the years and have been to 107 of their concerts, so i think that gives me the right to say whatever i want about Queen or it's affiliates. I know you are YV, does that matter? no, i could care less if you were part of Queen theirself, if i don't like what you say or do, i will tell you, i voice my opinion no matter who the person is, i told George W. Retard how i felt about him in front of 1,000's! I simply do not care. I mean i have alot of respect for you and all the things you have provided throughout the years, but does this mean that if i disagree i should not voice my opinion? Hell no. But anyways, i know this email is fake! |

Besides, you now have a chance to redeem yourselves. I have watched Mr Gore's re-emergence with some interest. He may be your last...your ONLY hope.... |

YoungStratMan, I am not telling you what to do, I don't know what gave you the impression. As to the email, I already said in my first post that I do not believe GB wrote this email. |

| Micrówave 30.05.2006 12:37 |
Why would someone trying to sell his book try to alienate his target demographic? That doesn't make sense at all, and I don't think he would. I don't know Greg Brooks and I'm not going to brag over the fact that I speak to John Deacon daily. |

| YourValentine 30.05.2006 15:09 |
YoungStratMan, I was not aware that we are fighting. Zeni already helped to clear up a misunderstanding but there is more: I did not want to imply that I am somehow close to QPL, on the contrary, I am just a fan, I do not know anybody in QPL. I only wanted to point out that I met GB in real life where I of course did not introduce myself with my internet nickname and days later he attacked me on QZ, not knowing that he had talked to me. I totally agree with you that posts on the internet make a very strong impresssion, you cannot take back what you wrote on the internet and the Queen Archivist does not make the best impression. peace :) |
| Josh Henson 30.05.2006 21:57 |
Who goes around telling everyone they are a federal investigator and talk to Brian May on a daily basis (or whatever he said) and that he has bought $100,000 worth of Queen stuff (you are a freak) and have gone to 107 concerts??? Get a life man! |
| That guy who digs energy domes 30.05.2006 22:31 |
I dont know if Mr Brooks is still reading this but I'd apologize too. |
| Saint Jiub 31.05.2006 02:22 |
One reason that Brian does not confront GB, may be because that Brian has also attacked fans: I recall Brian ripping Michael Allred for created a poll concerning the aspect ratio of Queen videos. Brian also threatened Dark with litigation for making a midi. Brian's labelling all fans as parasites. |
