This is my last question on Yahoo Answers?

If you could become a member of any rock band that you wanted to be in, then which band would that be?

In case you don't know already, my account was suspended yesterday. I have started a new account, but I do not feel motivated to answer anymore questions. In the past I have been known to joke around about leaving Y!A, but this time I am done. I am finished. I do not feel like devoting my time and energy into helping other people if this is how I get rewarded in the end. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if this question got reported.

I am not blaming anyone for the suspension of my account. To be honest, I saw this coming. I could see that my account was coming to an end. I am sick and tired though of having to deal with trolls. So I don't think I will be coming back to Y!A. I would like to thank all of my contacts for being there for me when I needed them most.

Update:

I promised myself not to give any retirement speeches when after leaving Y!A, but I didn't expect my account to end this way.

Here are some of the users that I would like to thank for my great experience on Y!A…

Darth Maul

Rocco G

Dark Ak Alsvartsagor

Happy Faces and Inside Voices

Brian The Killer Penguin

Please Don’t Feed The Trolls

Shizzle Bizzle!

Scream Bloody Gore

Cinnamon [1334♀]

Holden® (Mr.ThumbzUP)

Ψ Јέ§ŧέя Ψ

Tesla Girl

Shades of Grey

I am sorry if I did not mention anyone who was one of my recent contacts. Thank you everyone and goodbye everyone.

Update 2:

To some of you people who say that I need to get a life. Maybe you are right, I do need to get a life, but I guess now that I am gone you won't have to say that to me anymore.

And to answer your question, Beatle fanic, I may create my own chatroom. I may also go to Wiki Answers instead. I will email you if I do so. For the next week though I will be on spring break, so many of you people won't get the chance to talk to me then.

    I hate to see trolls continue to drive away all the good people here , but I do admit that I understand why everyone is getting fed up and washing their hands entirely to R&P. I've drastically cut down the amount of time I've spent here for the same reason. I don't get the same enjoyment here as I used to, and It's a shame. For a while we had a great group of people and then the trolls began filtering in and destroyed it all. I don't want to give them the satisfaction of knowing that they are the reason everyone is leaving, but lets face it...it's clear. Maybe you could consider creating another account and start over fresh. Just a suggestion... I'd hate to see you go all together for good. Either way, best of luck with everything. You will be missed greatly.

    I just asked my son to add this advise to you on his answer, but I'm afraid you won't read it, since he answered a long time ago. I have a contact that is also a dance contributor. She began to loose points for chatting and didn't understand. The dance community came together and helped her understand. Her answers were valuable to all of us. However people get reported for chatting if you ask a question that has no best answers. {like this one] If you would have put this question in the POLLS AND SURVEYS section, there would be no violations. She put her last question in the polls and surveys category and got over 100 answers. She asks great questions. She,like you was putting great questions in the wrong category. Hope this helps. get started again! By the way, I agree with my son. ANY BAND JACK WHITE IS IN!

    It is sad to have a big, active account go away, just like that!

    In fact, I noticed your account that got suspended was still one of my contacts, and when I rolled the cursor over it, it showed that you answered almost 3000 questions with a 25% BA!! That's an amazing statistic!

    You gotta know you will be missed. But I'll bet you also know what I'm going to say.... Take a break if you need one, just feel free to come back any time ~

    **edit**

    I always get caught up in the personal drama and forget to answer the 'music' question - lol.

    I'd be a member of.... U2. They're still together, still travelling the world playing, still making albums. Sounds like fun.

    **edit2**

    Also, listen to Fonzie and Beatle Fanatic ~ they're very smart guys :-)

    No Roxel..Thank YOU!

    I wouldn't have half the knowledge of all the newer Power metal Bands I love if it wern't for You. I'm terribly sorry that You are leaving, but I understand why. Truth be told the whole thing is beginning to wear thin on Me as well. R&P won't be the same without You Rox. But remember..You'll always have a friend here.

    I'll miss you, Roxel, but I can understand why you're leaving. Good luck, and have a good spring break! If you ever decide to come back, you'll be welcomed with open arms.

    If I was in any rock band, I'd be in either The Who or Queen, since both were great bands with such energy.

  • 1 decade ago

    I'd play bass and organ for Led Zeppelin. You're good John Paul but would you mind stepping aside and bring on Jimmy and Robert, Jason on drums. (I've already got a few of your songs down, I just need to practice up a few more, are you listening Jimmy?)

    You'll be back, nobody escapes the Spanish Inquisition.

    (meant only in the nicest possible way...)

    To answer your question, I would give my first born to be in the band Tool.

    As for the rest of the info you posted, I hope you have a nice life, stranger, and I think we all understand where you're coming from. I didn't get to know you but you seem like a nice person. good luck on your way out of here :)

    this sucks man....i gotta admit, your passion for metal led me back to it. i lost the desire to listen to it after being so turned off by posers. i can also say i have zero friends who listen to metal. im pretty sure you were one my first few contacts and it was your questions, answers, and musical tastes that made me request you. i would like to thank you for being such a positive force in R&P. we will not be upset if you ever decide to come back, although i know why you are leaving.

    if i could be in a band....i think i would join up with the Old 97's. straightforward, rock for the modern age. plus the guys are awesome. i talked to rhett miller last night in Hoboken and he actually remembered me from 2 months ago. he mentioned our conversation! such a cool guy.

    anyway, good luck with all your endeavors and as you already know, the R&P doors are always open.

  • 1 decade ago

    I would want to be in Nine Inch Nails (at least the touring band part) since that is im favorite band.

    I'm sorry to hear that you are throwing in the towel, but I can definitely understand your frustration. You've given us a lot of good q's & a's during your time here, and I'm sure you have helped more people than you realize. It just points out the fact that yahoo needs to get their reporting system in check. Take care of yourself.

  • 1 decade ago

    That's a sad story, I'm sorry to hear thta you're leaving (even if i dont know u! lol) but I just absolutely love the band Three Days Grace, so them! I honestly think that it will never happen because.... i dont exactly play guitar or anything useful to a rock band so.... yeah. Byez!
