  1. Thank you! I agree with this. As I already said, I had many doubts before joining and I decided to do so only because it was free; and as @ladyolivier said, it's not because I don't care, but if I'd have to pay, I would leave. I agree, Mika isn't well represented on the net, his website is really strange, not updated...it seems like he does nothing, like he is not active anymore, while is the exact opposite! As @kreacher and @tiibet said, I'd love that Mika (or his team) utilize more MFC, and that MFC was the place where to find news, not months after when everybody already knows them. I understand that there might be legal restrictions, but if the entire world already know it...I don't know. I always got confused if I manually search sth. Never know where to check, some forum names are the same thing in my head. Ok, that explains lot of things. I agree with the money issue; I've seen ppl collecting money not knowing what they was for, and ended up with an horrible gift. I was referring to special events like the cake for the ending of SCM recordings. But that implies money and short notice. The thing is that I would expect the Official FC organize this sort of things, collecting money from memebers who are going, and maybe external ppl too if they want, leaving in any case the "event" free. I would expect everybody knows the FC is organizing this in a transparent way, and decide whether participating or not, knowing that IT IS NOT a M&G, and Mika not supposed to stop (he is free to do what he wants). Instead the whole thing was organized by some small groups, maybe because they know those restrictions (with SCM you had very short advice) as they are mostly MFCers and Reps too. But then why Reps from countries where those events take palce have no authority to organize/collect money? I thought having Reps in every country was useful in that way, having somebody "on the field". In that way the organisation was sort of "secret", ppl who payed think they have Mika's exclusive or preference (fortunately he doesn't do preferences between fans) and the FC was forced to "apologize" with other fans for not having organized that and not having let them know. I'm talking about SCM, but it's only an example, it's the same for other nations Reps and events. Talking about Reps @silver, I unfortunately had some troubles with them (as we have more than one). They were not helpful nor this kind to me (it seems like I was bothering them) and I had more help from other MFCers than from them. Maybe I was just not lucky. When I first went to a Mika concert (well, my very first concert, and the only one for now) I was with a friend. I arrived at 11 a.m. and went streight to the queue. I was alone. She arrived only hours later, and I felt terribly guilty for holding ONE place for her. Same when I asked somebody to hold our spot because we had to do the check in at the hostel for the night. Then the queue growed up. Suddenly a group of ppl arrived and passed over us. There was one person in front of me before, and now there were five, and we had no place to stand! And it's not the only group who did so. There were really few ppl in the line when I arrived and after the day passed, I magically had a thousand ppl before me. Thats not fair. I had no rest the past days for school, but I made the line. I didn't move. I don't even know where the main entrance of the arena is, and discovered only after there was the chance to buy Mika's stuff (sh*t!). Most of them was MFCers. Then, as the fatidic hour was approaching, I began being nervous. I saw ppl who had make up for the concert and wanted that to. I decided to ask and have some chat with somebody (as you, I used to be really shy, but wanted so hard to fangirl with someone - my friend wasn't fan at this point). I approached some MFCers. They looked at me as they were disgusted. They was like "how dare she approach us? The elected ones?". I felt really bad. Fortunately there was a girl that was very nice to me, we had a (very) little chat, and then I came back in my spot. Maybe (again) it's me that isn't lucky with people in real life? I don't know. But I read such things all around the net too, so I'm not the only one. And that doesn't help MFC reputation. EDIT As without any proof we can't know about their behaviour, even if we have ppl who report them, because we can't know if it's true or just jealousy, they can behave as they want, nobody can do nothing against them...
  2. In teoria in Italia non dovrebbero essere in vendita fino a Febbraio/Marzo, per quello non le trovi
  3. Or maybe, like @carafon said, it's only the sound track
  4. That's true! Even in google search you have differents "Mika" if your browser doesn't register your latest research or preferences
  5. I remember looking on this and others threads and wondering about what pictures were commented It's so sad having dead links & images
  6. That's another "problem". I do know MFC is linked on mikasounds.com, but there are thousands of sites, fb/tw/ig pages Mika related. And that doesn't help. For example, I first used Mikawebsite.com before MFC, because is the first one I found and it's simple to understand. There's a bar on the top of the screen that help a lot for the site's organisation and to find what you're looking for (I don't know if I'm allowed to post a screen, so I won't do that). There's Mikamusic.it that is the official italian site (run by Mika's italian staff if I'm not wrong) but it hadn't been updated since 2013! There's too many non-official pages on socials, where is easier to find information hour per hour and all sort of stuff. New fans get confused by this amount of sites and do not know what to do! "May I follow MFC on twitter? May I register? But in this x fb page I have more info/I understand it better/etc" So I agree with @cat_loves_mika and @cathouzouf, maybe make clearer that MFC is the only official group in some way, explain who we are, what we do, organise more events/games (not necessarily with prizes, I had fun in entering some competitions just because, not for winning). Making the forum more fun, interactive and intuitive, because ppl don't want to read guidelines nowadays. In addition, I know we're not on a social, but we're going through the imageification (? I just invented this word, I'm sure) of all the medias, and here on MFC images have no clear organisation and are not easy to find (many of them have also been lost in the last site's update) Do I have to worry about my permanence here for what I said? According to the number of reaction to my post, I suppose I'm not the only one that felt all those things, thank you, this make me feel better! I'm not a mad who invent things in his head
  7. @Loo I'm not complaining about the site being in english, I was just reporting a fact
  8. Oh well, online dramas never ends! And yes, there is also a sort of competiton between nations...that's no sense to me I agree with this That's true. And I met fantastic people thanks to Mika and MFC too. It's sad.
  9. That's complicate. I'm trying to tell what I felt/understood in the past 3 years, as an external person before, and then as a member. I don't know how or if this could help, as is not only about the site itself, but about the FC in general. I hope not to be misunderstood, but I'm going to be frank. I honestly didn't want to sign up at first. I read on the net about bad behaviours from people from MFC, and that on the site everybody act like friends, and then in person they treat you very badly. As I continued using MFC as a visitor, I considered joining anyway, because that would have offered me those advantages you said, from M&Gs to tickets; but if it hadn't been free, I would never had signed up. There are many positive aspects of being a member, but there are also many things that don't work as they have to in my opinion. I find that sometimes there's a big lack of organisation, and it even seems that Mika's staff don't communicate with MFC INTENTIONALLY. Maybe they do so to avoid the unpleasant situations that happen often, but in this way people act on their own, without the FC mediation, and that create chaos and those situations the staff probably don't want. So people thinks MFC is useless and leave it, or at least, they aren't active normally, but when some opportunity show off, they suddenly come back and then disappear again, with a very strange timing (and/or luck). They do so even with other people. If you give them more possibilities to see Mika, both in a correct or incorrect way, you become a big friend of them; but if you are useless they abandone you. Thanks God I found very nice people too, that always helped me and were here for any questions or problems. But the bad feelings I had before joining sadly didn't went away; instead I now was SURE about what happened in some events, while with other media only I thought there were just impressions. This athmosphere, where fans are in competition with each other, so if I know Mika would be guess at xxx I won't tell you so I'll have him only for me, or fans that overtake the official fan club, doesn't make you want to join, does it? There are also some things I don't understand. Why do some country have more rep than others? Are they elected in some way? Is there a reason in this difference? Why (apart from the yearbook and Mika's birthday) the FC doesn't organise presents (I mean, in big occasions, not always), even if fans suggest it and offers to organise? In refusing, again, people will act on their own, in small or big groups not well organised, and everybody will be pissed off, those who were not aware of the thing and would have loved to participate, the FC, that have to explain it was not an official gift and Mika not expected to thank the fanclub... Why we don't take action against people who have bad behaviours? Not only online but, I don't know, for example preventing them from entering next event, as they do for football: after being warned you can't play next match. I do know MFC is not the police, but sites normally have rules (I know MFC have them too) and normally if you do not follow them we take action against you. Please note I'm talking about GENERAL FEELINGS after SURFING THE NET 3 years, as I went IN PERSON at only 2 events being a member. Then we can talk about the site's graphic and logic. It's difficult to find what you're looking for and not obvious where to go - excluding the research option, that doesnt work all the time (sometimes it tells "no result" when the word I type exist in titles and in threads too). I have difficulties in writing with my phone, some words magically disappear after typing them and I can't underline/change colour/size etc (but maybe is my phone's fault). Plus I noticed many people have troubles in understanding/writing english, but here we can do nothing (it's only a fact. Many people tell they don't use the site because "it's in english!!!") Finally, maybe someone find twitter, facebook or instagram more simple and faster than MFC. Sorry for writing this at night, that doesn't help my english, nor in writing clearly.
  10. Mmmmh...I stopped asking to be added in sub-fanclubs because I think I would sign in nearly all of them but if you ask it that way...
  11. My brother and her girlfriend have a gap of 8 years. They are together since 2010 I think (?) Don't remember well. My best friend have a boyfriend 8 years elder than her. They are together since we were at high school (we're finishing university now). I once had a relation with a guy elder than me. The gap was of 7 years. Our relation lasted 4 years. It was my first relation so did not know what I was doing neither when he asked me what I thought about him, I told it was a really good friend of mine; he asked if he could be more, my answer was "I don't know". But I loved talking with him and so he became more than a friend. What I want to say is don't mind the age gap. If you like spending time with him, do it! And if he likes hanging out with you too that's good. So, even if he rejects you, you can continue being friends, and maybe it can become more with time...or not, but you still have a good friend with no misunderstandings! (I had that problem too, I thought I had a good friend once, then I discovered he wanted sth else ) Edit: I took it for granted he's a good boy. I don't know him nor you or how much do you trust him. However please be careful, you never know and we hear such things nowadays...
  12. I don't know what he thinks on acting in a film now, after doing Zoolander and this cameo (I didn't know about that, thanks @Mikasister), but he recently said he would love to WRITE a film about Lebanon, to show the other side of his native country, not only war/refugees/etc. And that he could be an actor in a film like this one, but only if he is involved in writing the story. I don't remember what interview it was, sorry About writing a musical, I knew he said several times to be one of his dreams. Maybe one day he will do that too
  13. Septembre? Bon, alors je vais me les offrir pour mon anniversaire en Octobre Merci
  14. Mais non, pourquoi? Il a l'aire très sympa a mon avis J'ai souvent vu des montages très pourri malheureusement, esperons ça ne sera pas le cas
  15. Mais non Est-ce que vous pensez que l'émission sera mieux que l'année dernière? J'ai bien aimé les talents, j'adore les coaches, Nikos, Goupil, mais je trouvais que quelque chose manquait par rapport aux années passées je ne sais pas bien quoi ni comment m'expliquer mieux que ça, désolée
  16. Merci! Au moin grâce a Mika et d'autres artistes que j'ai découvert en France maintenant on regarde quelques emission française (surtout de musique) avec ma mère et ma soeur parfois, donc on s'exerce un peu plus qu'avant
  17. Ahahah bon, pas trop mal, je fais pire que ça d'habitude en fait je n'ai pas beaucoup étudié la langue et donc je ne sais pas trop bien l'écrire en plus on m'a dit que des fois je construis mes phrases d'une manière bizarre
  18. Salut! Moi je suis italienne mais ma mère est française et je viens lire ce thread de temps en temps après je n'écris jamais rien même si cela m'aiderait avec mon français, qui n'est pas si bon que ça en vrais
  19. Too many threads about this tour, I don't even know how to start! I don't know which thread check exactly neither, and the few I looked don't have the order (Well, maybe there is, but in order to avoid spoilers I didn't check very well ) Really, there's no full vid of that? Even a really bad one?
