I doubt it. He's prolly too busy with the official forum.  Or he's working hard (or hardly working ;)) on the new album.

He COULD  lurk here and read some posts, but I highly doubt he'd ever post.

I don't think he has ever posted anywhere else than the official site. However he usually reads what curefans are saying, so I'm sure he have been reading here too :roll:

Yes, it's quite exciting when Robert posts there and he's happy!!  :rocker  Not so good when people were being rude to him about the postponement.  :smth011

He posts, but at moment he's busy, and he just updates, he reads and comments on some topics, you just have to sift through all comments ..look for RSX signed, ok?? :smth023

Nah.
However, he does post on the official forum, but you have to sift through trolls, in-fighting and spam in order to find what he's written.

hahahahahaha i simply LOVE the word "lurk" it conjouors up rather odd images in my brain... Robert "lurking" about..... :-D :-D it reminds me of the word 'lurch' which i also find histerical... robert lurching and lurking in the dark recesses of the internet... *histerical laughter*
sorry... my randomness....
"Lurk" over this way Robert!!!!! :P

Yeah, I know all about the official Cure site.  :(
It's an embarrassment, really.

He does, and has posted,
Not sure if he will anymore, The whole thing went stupid after postponements, and people can log and change names to bag each other at will.
So other than that, I think he knows of the problems, but is a believer in choice, and freedom of expression- So, I guess it reflects the state of the world,
or, the need for acceptance, and appreciation of differences.

Unfortunately that site is still a mess, its difficult- because.... well most know, and thats awhole other long winded story. Just difficult.
Non the less i guess anyone and everyone can use dual personalities- which to start with was cute and playful but now its abusive.
There was always spam, but mmmmmmm ????#@#$%^&())*^$@!  ???

Back to the topic, you can see if and when he actually posts by clicking on his name, if it connects you to  Geffers-I dont believe it is Robert,
But if it goes to ...Host, and all that.. it is the real thang. Which is really nice,

He posted one night to announce the resheduled tour date, and noone else was there, so i was gob smacked- Had him all to myself and
couldnt find any words....So i guess thats why he posts under alias, everywhere, aswell., because if you know it is Robert- you wont be yourself.-
well i couldnt- i was lost in awe, again-

mmmm the official site is embarrasing... and annoying.. but its like anything i guess, a small majority of people dont use it for the right reasons and ruin it for the rest of us.

Hi there...first time I have made any comments, just been reading them here and at the "official" website. I think you might find that the latter will be changed,but Robert has been so busy with the new album etc. He has been alerted to what's been going on in there... and no, I'm not creepy, reading and not posting..haha... I am, well, let's say, of similar pedigree to Robert, and just like to keep to myself, but always interested in what's going on...enjoying reading how much he and the band mean to so many people...he is..a lovely man.

Thanku Billee.... this whole site is excellent..full credit to whoever runs it, and thought of it originally. It is very professional, and attracts really nice people. I doubt the rubbish which goes on elsewhere would even be allowed here.. Maybe suggest to Robert, when he has five minutes to spare,to take a look in here.. I am sure he would be impressed.  Of course, finding that "five minutes" is the hardest part!!

Whilst it would be fantastic for Robert to give Curefans.com a mention, can you imagine how snotty other forums would be? I know we all think THIS is the best one, probably they think the same of theirs. He would have to have a memory like an elephant to remember all forums, so as not to upset anyone. He doesn't usually make a habit of sending "hellos" on stage, I imagine it's cos he doesn't want anyone else to feel left out. Imagine if he yelled out "Hello to ....." whoever, yet Curefans.com didn't get a mention? OoOOooo people would not be happy!! He is aware of this forum. Has he had a look? Who knows!!  If he has, I bet you anything he would be very impressed! So yeah, it would be great to get a mention, but, look at it from Roberts' point of view... :smth023

That's a wise answer. I can't say for sure he reads or not this forum, but since he sometimes mentioned COF on thecure.com, I guess he surf on the cure pages to see what the people is talking about, and that includes curefans.com. Anyway, will try to get him a shirt personally next year. Ohh...better I stop dreaming and come back to work :D

I feel like writing something expressing how much he has changed my life, but I fear if he read it, he'd laugh and/or think I was a loon!

JK, I know he probably doesn't check this place, but in case he does....well..... :smth023
