Saying myles can't sing is ridiculous.

Axl has no rasp like he once did, and Myles never sang with rasp, but always sings in key.

All of those statements, stated the way they are as unequivocal truths, are flawed to say the least.

Don't be a hater just because you know what I say is true.

Only difference between Myles and Axl these days, is that Axl sings pitchy out of key, and Myles sings pitchy IN key.

Axl has no rasp like he once did, and Myles never sang with rasp, but always sings in key.

I didn't think Jarmo went below the belt with any of the things he said. Halo did. He got personal and a bit nasty. And even if he felt ganged up on, just because you may feel insulted, the answer isn't always to fire it up a notch and go for the jugular. It's clear to me that Halo is trying to make a name for himself so he can brag to his internet friends on various other GNR websites. "Hey, have you guys been following me schooling Jarmo on HTGTH? How awesome am I?"

Plus, the guy seems to be full of shit. He claims to know things he has no clue about and he changes his story. Not too long ago he claimed that an album would be out in 2013, now he's backed off of that. He's an attention seeker, plain and simple.

That, in my mind makes him a giant douche.

Jesus Faldo, Jarmo told him to "Fuck Off" told him was nothing, a nobody etc...where did Halo get worse than that??? Even the saner posters called Jarmo out for his insults to Halo and other posters. You would NEVER see the mods here behave the same way..

I am not here to defend Halo, I have not been to HGTH in a year or more and don't know him at all, never heard of him, but I did not see the guy be in any way more posionous as anybody else there. What he said was true in many cases.

I think you're dragging in other situations into this to form an overall opinion of Halo but for an outsider like me looking in on the Jarmo show, I think that boy has lost it. He's either an arrogant tosser who feels king of his tiny hill or a scared little soldier who is terrified of his boss.

Its probably a bit of both I reckon.

Yeah, I've heard Halo spew his shit for the better part of the last year, so my opinion on him isn't solely based off this one back and forth with Jarmo.  He's a wannabe insider who claims to know things and have things he doesn't seem to have.  An attention seeker.  So in my mind, I don't blame Jarmo for going off on him.

I'm one of the few who don't have a problem with Jarmo.  He's employed by the band, it's his board, he can run it however he sees fit.  There are plenty of other places to discuss GNR.  I post here more often than HTGTH these days because there's so little activity over there, or at least any interesting activity.  So I don't see why people bother hating on Jarmo.  What's the point?  You don't like the way he does things, post somewhere else.  What does bitching about him accomplish?

By the way, Halo now says the next album will come out in 2014, moving further from his 2013 prediction.  Maybe he'll acquire a few more unheard tracks in the meantime and he can brag about how they sound and not share them with anyone.  Can't wait!

I guess what he doesn't see is that he's had the opportunity for years (and still has) to change the perception of him, but all he does is further cement the existing opinion of him.  People would listen if he'd just talk.  People would care if he would release quality new music.  People would care if he would make an attempt to be more fan friendly.  But that's just not who he is.

Right.  Easier said than done.  Some people have the ability to change people's perceptions of them.  Axl seems to lack that.  Again, deep down I don't think he minds that people hate him so much, but he doesn't understand why he can't continue to prosper as an artist.  I think the two go hand in hand more than he'd like to acknowledge.
