Ok, my post is in main forum under "To the staff".
I tried to make it so they will respond and not delete it and thus be a waste of time and achieve nothing.
As such, I went for the worried parent approach ;)

this song was already a hit in the netherlands and belgium a year ago. It seems that this guy made an english version of the song and called it "the fast food song"

Ok, as I said, I took the worried parent approach in order to not get banned.
To the staff..
I am not here to troll your boards but simply and reasonably ask how you can justify this FFR concept as a moral way (as opposed to immoral) to support children in the face of bullying, by targeting kids to buy into fast food and cynical art?
Irrespective of the issues of bullying (which I get the impression you are utilising in your marketing), I would still like to know, in relation to the following example:
"fries are good and fries are kind fries are good, all the time!!!
my own fast food poem YEASH!"
..how encouraging this kind of attitude in our children can possibly be a good thing?
And yes, the above "poem" only came about due to the marketing of FFR and this website.
Unless, of course, you can somehow justify this marketing model, I personally shall endeavour to explain to my own kids and those of anyone I know about the cruelty to animals, damage to the environment and blandification of our society that these kinds of business facilitate.
Don't get me wrong, I am not some kind of a cultural prude who expects children to engage in non-commercialised high-art or something, nor do I expect them to eat brussel sprouts, cabbage and fruit instead of what they actually want to eat ie. 'nice, tasty things'.
I am a regular guy who simply finds this whole FFR to appear distasteful and immoral, and would like to give you the opportunity to show me I have a wrong impression.
I hope you have the decency to respond instead of ignoring/deleting this.
Finally, please do not try to claim you do not have to answer to the parents of those innocents you are attempting to market to, since we, after all, hold the purse strings.
However, just because a parent says no to something does not necessarily mean the child will not be affected by its marketing, and indeed, their peers.
Thanks for your time.

"Moderators: Head Waiter, Gene, mand, Poppy"
i've been thinking about that one myself, and while i'm pretty sure that these guys must be near-minimum wage due to the entirely fucking monotonous nature of their work, if this thread gets A LOT of hits they may have to pass on the concerns to someone higher.
I'd imagine they've been told that something like this may eventually happen on the board, but we'd have to wait n see just what kind of response we get. (if any, they may just close the thread, admission of guilt or not)

think of all the extra exposure you are giving the FastFoodRockers with this thread. you're giving a lot of attention to a band you clame to dispise.
Closet Fans? i think the answer is obvious.

Dom, I appreciate your taking the time to explain your point of view.
However, deleting my posts seems like an admission of guilt, or surely you would have posted in the topic on the forum what you have just emailed to me, especially since I was respectful and was in no way abusive.
I believe such an approach would have been beneficial to all associated with FFR.
Unfortunately, now the damage is done and I cannot
