GB was sacked by Queen.
Everyone knows I tell the truth, but my poor spelling has made me look stupid. So to be taken more serious, I have written this in MS Word first so that the spelling is right. Maybe now I can be taken more serious.
Greg Brooks is a bully. The thread called Queen Anthology PART 1 (March 2008) is a good example, because he is not interested in the box set. He is only interested in rubbishing John Stuart, and that is bullying. But have you ever wondered why he is such a tosser? Well here is the answer.
GREG WAS SACKED BY THE BAND.
He will tell you he was not sacked because he never worked for them, that he was self employed and that self employed people cannot be sacked. But the truth is he was contracted to do a job, and that job is now over. And now that that job is over, they have no need of his services. They want nothing more to do with him. It is like employing a self employed electrician to do a job, then when his job is over it is over. But if he was any good you would take him back, but if he was poor at his job you would not hire him again. So in that way he has been sacked.
He has no influence on future releases. He is just a has been. That is why he is a bully. He likes to be the big shot but he can’t be any more and that is because people in here like Serry Vietinhoff and John S. Stuart know more about Queen than he does, and they do not even work for the band. That is why he has to rubbish there work. And he has the cheek to call me childish.
I know this because I have a friend of a friend who knows him, and he is the same in real life. All mouth and no trousers. I do not see why he is allowed to do this in here. He is a spammer and a troll, but a troll with a name. So why should he get off with this when others don’t.
Greg Brooks may be a prick on the forum, but I wouldn't say there's people who know more about Queen than him than on this forum. Never state something like that unless you are sure it's 100% truth.
He may be wrong about some things, yet I'm sure there's some things that people on here probably would never know.
Just like an electrician who is going through a house, and see's something belonging to the person in the house, which that person's parents or friends might not even know about.
People claim to be better fans than I because they 'know' all the places Queen have played by heart. And they 'have' so many recordings. I have hardly any recordings of Queen doing live things, only the officially released live albums, and some other things which I've downloaded on various sites. I LOVE Queen live, but I'm not going to be obsessed about it. I enjoy the studio work, and the demos, and rare bits. I so enjoy listening to a early take, and hearing different lyrics, and how nice it'd be if they re-released it in that way. I'm a big collector of Queen CD, Cassette, and Vinyl singles, not much in the past 5 months because I'm so broke at the moment. But I love hearing their unreleased studio material.
Greg seems to have some knowledge in that department, and I'm interested in that. He doesn't have to say a thing either, because I'm willing to wait.

That may be true, but apparently Queen have accepted his personal pager number (it's for prefered customers only - never call the company, they'll just put you on hold).
I gotta say, if a guy working for me spent most of his time abusing my fans, I'd probably sack him. Then again, if my fans were abusing my archivist (and this is all hypothetical, ha-ha) I'd probably tell them to grab a brain and stop being complete douche-bags.
Hey Zebonka...

THIS IS BECAUSE YOU ARE NARROW-MINDED, AND BECAUSE YOU AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALWAYS TRY TO DENY OTHERS THEIR RIGHT OF FREE THOUGHT AND FREE EXPRESSION... WHEN THEY DISAGREE WITH YOU AND YOUR OPINION AND HOW YOU THINK THEY SHOULD BE BEHAVING.
PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO SACK THOSE IN THEIR EMPLOY THAT EXERCISE THEIR RIGHT TO FREE THOUGHT AND SPEECH, ARE WHAT MAKE THIS WORLD A MUCH MUCH SHITTIER PLACE.

NO PAL.. JUST LET PEOPLE EXPRESS WHAT THEY FEEL, AND DON'T PRESSURE THEM OR INFLUENCE THEM ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. JUST LET THEM BE.
NARROW-MINDED INDIVIDUALS ARE EVERYWHERE.
WILLY-BOY FRASER, I CREATED A NEW POSTING IN 'PERSONAL' FOR YOU. NOW... DON'T YOU GET ALL SULKY AND TANTRUMY AND UPSET. THINK HARD BEFORE YOU REACT LIKE A BULL IN A CHINA SHOP. CALM DOWN SON.
"THIS IS BECAUSE YOU ARE NARROW-MINDED, AND BECAUSE YOU AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALWAYS TRY TO DENY OTHERS THEIR RIGHT OF FREE THOUGHT AND FREE EXPRESSION..."
No it's because you're scaring off potential customers.
"NO PAL.. JUST LET PEOPLE EXPRESS WHAT THEY FEEL, AND DON'T PRESSURE THEM OR INFLUENCE THEM ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. JUST LET THEM BE."
Ugh... coming from you, it sounds awful funny. You complain every time someone expresses what they feel on here; that is of course, unless they liked your book.
Don't give me that Live and let Live nonsense! You haven't the mental discipline to try living by it.
People who spend too much time in a SERIOUS thread of a forum bragging and nagging, and not giving useful information, and taking everything personal are very extremely egocentric, and should really question their own motives for doing so. (Those people would mostly also not be able to see it this way)
this is the first time i felt i needed to say something... It's only friggin music! fight your personal vendetta's somelplace else like msn or myspace..
