not to mention I'm annoyed that mark shares a blinkitalia post that they probably stole from the timeline.

What frustrates me even more is when you read the comments of certain posts from that account : 

• on certain discoveries (such as the small club show in 1997 and that One Track Mind show with Scott that I found last year) I've seen comments saying "Amazing work on the account and always great content with those discoveries"! ...
• I'm probably not going to detail how I research stuff from the timeline website here (because obviously I'm my work is for sure going to be copied) but I'm very peculiar on certain words and trends : spending hours researching content and rare stuff and then finding some amazing gems is such a joy and a blast!
• Doing posts like "On This Day" and then copying and pasting stuff from the timeline website does NOT count as personal work.
• Last week, I even saw one of my picture that was used in a post and of course absolutely no credit ... ?

I don't want to sound like a brat, but yeah this is such bullshit (saying it in a french accent of course) I'm glad that my work here at last is being appreciated but yeah I wanted to say how I really feel about this whole issue

@Thibaut182 you don’t sound like a brat at all.  It takes restraint to not call them out on every single post.  And then the comments “the only blink news site I trust!” 
 

absolute garbage. I still don’t understand how they got away with trashing Skiba but then backpedaling and calling him their “dark lord.”

Someone tell davey to clue Mark in.

I took my tony hawk + blink idea from earlier and put on my blink playlist while I bash out my 12th career run and I’m having so much nostalgic fun right now it’s criminal!

You have to love that MGK is front and center on that remakes track list ? 

[Speedo]

I only played the remake a handful of times and now it rests safely in my cloud never to be touched again.

Im aiming to 100% it, Its probably my most played game in years. I’ve done all the main challenges, doing every individual career challenge, and working on some of the ridiculously hard ones as well. I’ve completed all of the challenge collections (rookie, veteran and legend).

The first two games were a huge part of my childhood as is most of the THPS series. The remake is, no joke, one of the best things to happen in my adult life haha I fucking adore it.

Its not even the worst of the newer additions but the fact that you can have only the original soundtracks if you wish is amazing. There is some good newer stuff too though, to their credit.

Fucking do it son.

Italia - being used by Mark because they probably buy a bunch of merch and market the band - actually connived they're 'in' with Mark and of higher importance.

Worse than Love pt. 2.

Look at me, giving suggestions, solving problems.

Let’s gooooooo.

 

I’m an og blocked by blink italia for calling them out for their garbage. Give me a downfall, please. It’s the worst when the absolutely insane fans drive attention and discourse and the band members don’t know it.

Mark and Matt both posted photos of their shoes very close together.

Skiba in the band confirmed.

Oddly enough though, he’s a doc martin fan … those haven’t been good since the 90s!

Fuck Italia. 90% of his posts come from research/work other people did without even a casual credit or shout out. It’s not like it’s illegal or something, just cheap and pathetic.

[Rickay]

I know some of you aren’t his biggest fan but a small up date from Jason Tate fwiw

 

I did decide to throw out some feelers to some of my old contacts in the industry to see what I could discover. What I found is nothing that surprising, but from little birdies I trust, I hear that as of right now, the band members themselves do not know exactly what the future holds. Some contacts on the touring side have heard of a tour for next year being floated and discussed in meetings, but no dates are currently in the system. And I’ve heard there was talk of it being an untitled record anniversary tour, and I’ve heard one name tossed around as a potential opener that I, personally, would be stoaked as hell on. And, lastly, I’ve heard no decision has been made on if it would be a three or four-piece. So, literally precisely what Mark said: as of right now, there’s no tour booked, and no news to report on.
