Well like I have been saying,IF Axl gets off his ass and starts promoting the fucking album it will sell more copies,but where is he?Maybe he has finally gone insane and has locked himself in a closet in his mansion or something...:haha:

Mabye because he no longer has the trump card of Chinese Democracy, people are less enthusiastic about humouring him, and his latest decision to stonewall his fanbase will not be greeted with the same "good ol' Axl" attitude that has unintentionally fed his contempt for so long.

There's bitching everywhere. Its why I laugh when I see someone mention how there's so much bitching here.. There's one site that has less bitching than all others, but that's only because the bitching is deleted all the time.

Good point on people venting frustration more easily now that Axl no longer has so much leverage with the fanbase.

We all have a right to be angry...we waited a VERY long time for this and it is frustrating to see how it has been "promoted".  This album wasn't ever going to be the juggernaut it was hyped up to be but it could have easily sold 500,000 copies the first week with a little better promo, a video and for fuck's sake if you are going to do an exclusive go with the largest retailer in the world (Wally World), not Best Buy.

Where in the HELL would that be James?

what annoys me about that is supposedly they went with best buy so the swear words on the album could remain on the album, all three of them.

I guess they went with Best Buy because those are the ones who offered to buy the most copies.
