The Garden EP Options

[SJN1279]

Jimmy, I had absolutely zero intention of posting on Ed's FB about his EP (or I'd have done it a lot sooner), I did it because of the email I got, so I felt it completely justified. The cowardly hiding of that and banning to shut anyone who has a complaint up is what pisses me off. It is the heart of the matter.

Why should you care if you are banned from a FB page from an artist you don't even like?

Thanks for COMPLETELY missing the point I was making and the point you just quoted. It's not that I'm upset because I was banned, it was a facebook that I had no intentions of posting on anyways, it's the fact that my valid complaint was swept aside and I was silenced when Ed and his crew are the ones that have done the wrong thing here.

I'll try and flesh it out in a way you can understand it. I suppose you don't actually enjoy going into police stations yeah? But imagine if something happened and you felt you had to go in and report a crime, you'd be pretty pissed off if they shoved you out the door and locked it on you, wouldn't you?

I don't want to join in the "society of friends" on Ed's facebook, I posted to try and figure out why I'm still getting his shitty emails when I'm not supposed to. Now you, as a member of Ed's admin team should try and get to the bottom of this, as that's the right thing to do, the honest thing to do.

Did you open the email?

[Pokey]

Yes I opened it so I could scroll to the bottom and press the opt out button for a second time.

Did you open the email?

I unsubscribed ages ago and got the email also. It had a link to download the EP and tour dates. The damn thing included pictures of the lyric sheets and a link. It also had pictures of the I Alone t-shirts and a link.

"music, merch and more at edkowalczyk.com"

Wonder what genius came up with that.

What a scoundrel and a loser Ed is. What kind of person do you have to be to work for him? Geez.

That should have been the end of it(and I'm sure you read the email). How many emails from Ed have you received recently?

I find it funny you give me crap that I post on FansofLive when I'm not a fan of Live without Ed, when you were Ed's facebook friend and you absolutely hate Ed.

Honestly this is the first email in a long time I have received from Ed, which I found pretty underhanded that I suddenly get one when he has a new EP to push, perhaps working off a certain email list he isn't supposed to be and has done in the past.

I am not, and have never been Ed's facebook friend, you can post on a band's facebook without being their friend. You seriously have no idea how shit works do you.

So no, the end of it should have been when I opted out the first time, take some god damn responsibility for the guy you are admin for. Fucking spineless and gutless the lot of you.

What you have done is got a nice big apple, and a nice big orange and you've sat down to try and compare the two of them.

I really don't mind if I am banned from Ed's facebook under any other circumstances, but banned because I bring a legit gripe to him? That's not cool.

Nah, that's not what I've done at all.

Anyways, do you mind asking Ed why people who have opted out of his emails are receiving them about his EP? See I'd ask him myself, but I can't. Would really appreciate you doing the right thing here because I think a few of us would like to know how this happened, and the buck obviously stops with the man himself

[OutToDry]

I'll tell you how it happened, he used the Live mail list again. Call a spade a spade.....Ed feels he doesn't have to answer to anyone.

[SinfulEyes]

How much are you willing to bet that we get another email from Ed's Douchecamp when his shirt new album drops even though we opted out of his email list again?

What I love here is that this has just proved something we have been saying about Nick all along - he just takes an opinion or some such and will state it as fact. He has absolutely nothing to base his claim that I was friends with Ed on facebook on, just an assumption he pulled out of thin air and tried to use it to "own me". When the FACT is I have NEVER been friends with Ed on facebook, absolutely never and I was able to post on Ed's page because Ed's page was set up to allow anyone to post or comment.

It can be applied to so many things we have seen from Nick in the past, sprouting his mouth off without checking his facts first. Passing whatever he believes off as fact ... he just decides he knows people motivations and feelings, so he'll state it as fact; when this is absolute proof that the dickhead engages his keyboard way before he uses his brain to actually think things through.

Nick, while you're asking Ed about how his emails are getting to people who opted out of him, maybe you could ask him for an apology too for it. Surely a good Christian man such as himself would do the right thing and give us that much, I don't want to have a ban lifted, I'm happy to remain banned as I have no interest posting on his facebook. But I think an apology is in order.

Agreed. Ed is a piece of a shit and should apologize for it.
