Why say that and not give more info? It's not as if you're outing him. At least share your experience us...if you had one that is. [Edited 4/25/16 10:03am]

Those that have been in the community for years did know. If he (others) wanted name & convo's to be outed it would have happened at the time. So NO comment to usernames and convo's, It's called having respect for those that wish (wished) to stay anonymous. Oh and by the way I am Katt and no I do not rap

Those saying "yes" but "oh I can't say more" are so full of shit. People who actually have personal information do not go around telling others they have personal information.

Lame.

I have agree.. seems like a lot of teasing and circle jerking going on, when there would be zero harm now after the fact in giving specific info about Prince's presence here.

.

I would think the mods of this board would actually create a sticky that could contain & memorialize any public messages known or highly likely to be posted by Prince.

Exactly.

Some if the posts and claims are beyond tacky and they should be ashamed of themselves.

I have heard through the Mpls grapevine that once upon a time he was always checking the org out. Whether he just lurked or actually posted I do not know.

I remember it being obvious at one period that emails sent to NPGMC members were in direct response to stuff we had posted on the org during one of the celebrations.

I read an article the other day about some AOL chats Prince had where he brought up the Org, so I assume that he knew about it and visited. I kind of don't want to know what his account names may have been -- I like the mystery

Well, he allegedly browsed The Org and found "some of it funny." https://medium.com/@shans....gere769k2

Thanks for that... wow...loved it.

Thanks for your post, in my mind your one of the most respected orgers on here, so what you say...goes.

Thanks. Appreciate that.

I can also say that when I was a mod I orgnoted w/reps from Paisley Park and they always identified themselves with their first names and at the time they used their own accounts - i.e. I never recieved an orgnote from the same account but signed by a different name.

I can't say what happened before or after I was a mod.

oh...my...god...reading your response I noticed I wrote "your" instead of "you're" in mine.

Brutal.

But thanks again!

Given all the hatred towards him on this site, if he was, he wasn't for long.

Hi prince fans. My Name is Ian Boxill and I have been lurking here since 2004. I worked as an engineer for Prince from 2004-2009. I can tell you that he lurked here and over at Housequake. He even sent me a link to a post on Housequake once.

I often sat at Paisley reading posts on here and cracking up because I would be looking at him or hearing him in the hallway. I never intended to post on here out of respect for him, but under the circumstances I thought I might be able to add some info to the discussion.

There you have it. Thank you Ian.

As for any accusations of teasing or whatever, let's end that BS. Someone asked a question. The question was, was he on the org? And the answer to that question is yes. Any of us active mods could give you usernames that he had logged in from, but none of you would recognise them because they never posted.

The question posed, was answered, so....
