we can't deny that without his financial participation, the website wouldn't have been able to last, technically talking... all the "down MFC" alert bulletins on myspace should help the doubtful ones to realize that it needs money to run a website, even if you don't care about what's said in it ...
and that i believe was a nice thing to do from him, and might even be THE purely kind and gentle move from him... just kidding... it would have dissolved a huge fanbase if the site had been down for "good". and even if they would have gone to other websites and other fanclubs (for sure), this is still the hugest fanbase he could ever dream of : from the beginning, early beginning, a huge number of fans and still growing, following him like EVERYWHERE, supporting him no matter what, etc. Even the facebook MFC (which is a baby of this one) is far to get any close to the mfc domination
2nd : people who don't like someone are more likely to creating blogs (individual blogs) where they talk about how much they hate this person... some haters got together and have been into tiny groups of haters, but nothing close to a "real" haterclub... haters get tired of the ones they hate and get to hate someone else...
anywaaaaaaaaay...
about the "don't let me start about the officialness", it was more a tease than a real comment... the important message was in the following of the message, not in this stupid 1st sentence... may i write it again :
