HOW DARE THEY!!!

@Bongo is a regular member of both forums so maybe he can give a compare and contrast of each forums positive and negative qualities and pick which forum is the best.

We could torture @Bongo for the answers, it would also be a sufficient punishment for hanging out at another Beatles forum.

Here are some points they have on why it is the best/

 
8. We have a Canadian who must know everything about Imports and white albums on it . 

 

That’s probably Bongo – isn’t he Canadian?

Somebody on some other forum said

1. I`m on it . [Image Can Not Be Found] = I’m not.

2. As far as I`m aware it has the only Forum Liverpool Beatle Weekend meet up = As do we, we just don’t tell anyone when it is

3. It has the best Rory Storm thread in the world ever ! (and the biggest) = Sure we have a Rory Storm thread somewhere. The biggest though, no. There’s only so much to say and we try not to repeat ourselves too much.

4. It`s very active and also covers all aspects of Music , life , Film , and even sometimes Kitchens = Give you that one. [Note to self: start thread about Kitchens]

5. It has a Kate Bush thread on it = We have threads on many other artists. Sure it’s only so long before one of our Pink Floyd start looking at her because of Dave Gilmour’s involvement in her career and start one… No reason we can’t have a KB thread.

6. It`s very rare that the posts are about which Beatle has the best hair , eyes , dress sense etc ~ To whom it may concern, take note… a-hard-days-night-george-10

7. Bill Harry is a member ! = Bill Harry isn’t a member ! (Unless he is and hiding under a username. In which case a-hard-days-night-ringo-6 Sorry!)

8. We have a Canadian who must know everything about Imports and white albums on it = We have a Scot who knows some things about some things and rants beautifully about Apple. a-hard-days-night-john-6

9. We have a Admin that has spent more time in Liverpool , who doe`snt actually live there than some people from Liverpool ! = We have an Admin who’s work is regularly credited by major newspapers and authors, including Mark Lewisohn in Tune In.

10. It has a Wings thread ! = We have a Paul McCartney forum, with many Wings threads among its many Paul McCartney threads. Everything McCartney has been talked about. I blush sometimes! blue-meanie

11. It has a thread for anything thread = We have a thread that can’t be derailed.

12. Did I mention it has a Kate Bush thread ? = Did I mention my response to #5?

HOW DARE THEY!!!

 

Ah no they’re delusional. This site and forum has it all:

 

-An extremely detailed history section that you could spend a year of your life reading it and you still probably wouldn’t finish it.

-Insightful users of various ages from various backgrounds who show the perfect span of 21st Century Beatlemania, discussing the Beatles’ music and each member’s respective solo works, interviews, their personality, rumours, their looks, anything and everything.

– Excellent mods who filter out any spam and are very quick to reply to us n00bs.

– Little or no censorship, we can talk about whatever we want on this (so long as there is more Beatles content than non-Beatles content). I could make a thread solely talking about John Lennon ‘s eyelashes or ‘Pictures of The Beatles: The Acne Years’ for our teen Biblers and it would be perfectly fine.

– The vast majority of users are lovely, curteous and helpful.

– We have our own little Beatle experts here, who if you need a question asked by hook or by crook they will get it for you.

– One of our users helped find, and published for the first time ever online, the very first article written about The Beatles in America in 1963, concerning George’s visit to his sister in Illinois.  (Thanks @Ahhh Girl )

 

And we’re all ridiculously good looking.

 

Not biased, at all, of course.

Perception and reality are the same thing. If they believe that that forum is the best Beatles forum and some of us believe that this is the best Beatles forum that doesn’t mean that one of us is wrong. We are all correct because reality can differ from person to person. Everything is perception.

But we do have Beatles smileys and I don’t think there’s anything cooler than thata-hard-days-night-paul-5

We may not have a Kitchen thread, but we have a What Are You Eating Thread that can make your mouth water. I personally think that is better than a kitchen thread. Kitchens are just the means to wonderful food. We are evolved.

Their #6. What prudes they must be, dour fuddy-duddies. The Boys were damn fine looking. That hunk of manliness SHOULD be celebrated…AND LOUDLY AND PROUDLY. Who would want to take Beatlemania out of The Beatles? Not moi.

@Bongo could arrange a forum get together where we all get to know each other. We are all on the same side and no doubt could learn from each other.

You know, we could start a ‘What do you like best about this fab Forum?’ thread. Although we do have a ‘What does this forum mean to you?’ somewhere around here. 

Found it: https://www.beatlesbible.com/f…..an-to-you/

Edit: More: https://www.beatlesbible.com/f…..gratitude/

Where would the no-man’s land be? And will we invite DM’s Beatle forum as well then?

It could be like a Family Fun Day but forum style- I’ll bring the cake (not pie)!

There is no planned turf war. We should extend the olive branch of peace and look to build a world of intermingled forums where we can live together as one.

So do you have a comparison between the forums. I know you have more posts here then there.

Both are great Forums with great posters.  This one is much, much more active. That’s the biggest comparison. I have learned much from both sites.

P.S.  I am on 2 other Beatles Forums too…….a-hard-days-night-paul-10
