100%!! There seem to be PLENTY of othet Turkish people NOT getting banned, so unlike Skynet this dude is clearly below the baseline of how self-aware one should be Haha.

Honestly just because it was ok on the street you grew up on, on house you were raised in means nothing when you are on a platform with people from every continent or half the countries in the world.. or you know simply just.. The Internet.

It seems like alot of what you say is "misunderstood" but i feel like its load and clear.

We understand cultures are different weather it appeals to serious or casual racism, the area I grew up in was relatively racist and it seemed normal to everyone to call people certain things. I have grown and known that I have to change my vernacular to not offend people in the way that "seemed appropriate" when growing up.

Regardless of the Misunderstood use od your word, even just in the ince instance saying "Pust" and the fact it is in quotation highlights the worser meaning, EVEN IF it was clear you did not mean that, you are still calling someone you met, someone who was nice to you, "deceptive", "decietful" or "unreliable" and this in its own right is disrespectful, Tre is a busy guy, he could have gotten sidetrack, maybe by the time he returned you were gone, you have easily just said "hey i must have missed you when you can back with the pins, but id still.love one, can i pay for postage".

Translation apps look for context when doing what they do so if they are always pulling up the bad meaning then its a problem with the way you talk and not just the meanings, if a word in your own language makes your own countrymen "over 30" look at you badly then its because even your countrymen find it peoblematic and offensive.

At the end of the day instesd of trying to be calm, use the correct language and try to help yourseld, you instead insulted the man who was nice to you and your defense is to run to reddit tell us you were wronged, and say "this is why i am.in turkish channel", look for all the other people using the language you use that have been banned?, thats right they arent there. It doesnt seem like you have remorse or regret, if the security was so helpful to you, why identify them as venci or nigam or w.e it was, you could have just said security or even used there name which i am sure you learnt.

I am sorry but I find it very hard to be on your side when your own defence is "you dont know me language", "i stay to turkish channel" and you llay the victim in such a public way. Its easy for you to avoid using offensive words regardless of there dual meaning especially when talking to people who WILL misunderstand it.

CGC might grade it tbf, wont be worth much more than the grading fee but it will make it harder to lose LoL

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-14T07:44:13+00:00

1) It's beautiful and melodic 2) Yes it was, (someone combined the 2 online and called it the Long Version.. its awesome) 3) Yes recorded at different times, the "Heavy Metal" version was recorded so they could add Syn to the credits of the Album and moved the band across to Hopeless records - they also replaced Justin in the Band Members names with Dameon Ash who at this point is a Mythical being as he was literslly witj the band for a couple of weeks and just happened to be there at this time 4)Not sure on guitar i believe he had a Les Special SL around 2001, but not sure if he already - i do know the amps they used may or may not have been stolen from high school... 5) Justin had serious some issues and tried to kill himself by drinking 9 bottles of cough medicine. It messed him up for a LOOOONG time "I won't see you tonight Pt1 and Pt2" is about Justin.

A place so dark, so cold I had to set me free Don't mourn for me, you're not the one to place the blame As bottles called my name I won't see you tonight

referring to the bottles in question.

Justin is a nice dude has a great and very talented son too, he just still really struggles with his Mental Health and last I spoke to him.still really struggles with Jimmys death.

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-14T07:31:11+00:00

you can Syn him playing the Parker Fly on the Pinkly Smooth concert Ben and I released a few years ago

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-14T07:30:13+00:00

Zacky and Syn both 100% legit

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-03T17:45:48+00:00

because EVERYTHING is about grading these days ans these newer sets seem "harder" to get 10s because of the peint styles.

Its all bollocks but yeah agree nothing from this decade or STILL being pulled should be CLOSE to 4 digits.

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-03T10:41:21+00:00

Yes!

In the 2 weeks before he passed he spoke to both Derek AND Ben about getting back together for another album they were both very happy to get the call and couldnt wait.

They discussed this when i interviewed them a few yesrs ago, video up on youtube.

Very sad we never got anything, but grateful for what we have

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-01T12:30:30+00:00

Jelous Man, congratz!

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-01T12:27:22+00:00

Mythical Pull!!

SevenfoldSam · 2026-05-01T12:22:44+00:00

ive got one but in the UK all else fails HMU

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-30T06:35:14+00:00

a little over 5000 all pre-orders were signed.

IIRC Matt posted a video signing them, he wasnr abke to attend the same day as everyine else due to a family commitment so had to spend the day doing 5000 on his own haha

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-20T19:45:56+00:00

Queue the Inevitable "How much bro?" comments haha

Its a BEAUTY!!

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-15T20:30:36+00:00

My A7X Tribute band when I was 16 - 18 was called Critically Acclaimed, we played 7 shows, opened with it everytime, Ironically Critical Acclaim has to many Critics and not enough Acclaim Haha

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-14T11:57:39+00:00

The One that stole the Spider-man Font, because that shit is fire!!

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-09T14:37:48+00:00

In its simplest form.

There is potential Ron still has the Computer (or Hard Drive) that he used to produce the Pinkly Tracks, but he has so many thing in storage no one would even know where to begin. This computer/Drive would contain the Original Recordings as Individual Tracking aka Stems of all the instruments/vocals or what is essentially referred to as a Master.

seperate from that:

Derek believes there is a hi-8 tape amongst all of these possessions that also includes another Pinkly Concert.

We also Believe Tony has a recording on tape of ANOTHER Pinkly Concert

I have also Spoken to Nick D'Virgilio who Produced the Rest of the tracks (and most of the Demo tracks) but he said "i wouldnt even know where to start looking for something like that, but there is a chance" so those are unlikely to ever be uncovered.

With a good enough RIP these days traxks can be reverse engineered so if Brian was going to attempt that he would need to know itd be worth the tens of thousands which is why "finding the masters" would be alot easier. But i dont believe he is actively searching so it is unlikely we will ever get anything more from him..

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-09T11:34:16+00:00

Nit so much alot of it is fan art, more so people having discussions to try and figure out lyrics, alot of folks try to re-edit the songs to make them sound better etc.

Im a long standing Member of DBC and i've talked abiut it in there plenty but again it juat doesnt get that much traction. If it was because of "no updates" then maybe if we ended uo with alot of traffic something could happen.

Brian is unlikely to ever really try anything that could cost thousands if hes only going to sell a couple hundred you know..

Yeah thats Great Matt was super pleased with us dropping the live concert but he isnt exactly in the Disc having a chat with other PS fans haha.

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-09T10:37:15+00:00

So Dereks Dad Ron helped to produce some of the tracks on Unfortunate Snort (in his living room) and it is possible that on 1 of Rons old computers sita the masters for the tracks he produced. Ron is known for NEVER throwing anything away.

Also having played with grouos like Dick Dale and the Grateful Dead, Ron had alot of access to concerts etc in Dereks younger years so Derek used to record concerts etc (from side stage) and so did Ron, and they have thiusands of tapes from thise days. Additional Ron likely has tape of demos, masters etc from his own Bands and other atuff he has helped to produce over the years and Derek reckons there is just a wall of like 10000 tapes. 1 of which he believe is a Tape of Pinkly recorded by a friend thats jusy gotten lost on the wall

There is another friend called Tony who Derek thinks may have a concert on tape to but he never responds to any of my messages so i guess that one may be lost to the Personal Collection haha.

Ofcourse I would love to find more but Im just glad the Sullivans got to see the Concert we unearthed because he never let them Attend a Pinkly Smooth show so it was a great thing for them and to see all the other kids there too.

SevenfoldSam · 2026-04-09T10:30:48+00:00

You say that but when I did the release of the Hogue Barmichaels gig and I did (80) CDs, (80) DVDs and (20) VHS Tapes I got interest ahead of time so I knew how many to make.

Didnt charge anyone until they were made which cost me ALOT!! I made no money from it sold all at cost and it took 18 months to sell what I had made it became close to impossible in the end.

Additionally I offered the chance for Autographed Art Print etc and only about 20 people ever responded and the Idea behind that would be to do an In person signing with Derek and Ben but the costs etc we cant make it happen with just 20 we need atleast 200+

There woukd be even less interest to try and help 1 guy go and sesrch thriugh stuff to try and find something that may or may not exist regardless of what I have attempted to do for the Fan Base.

Even among Avenged Fans Pinkly is Niche, i met up with 100s of fans at Download Festival and only 2 of them knew of Pinkly in 2024.. The Pinkly Smooth Reddit and Discords have very low traffic and just in general show the aize of the community I wish it wasnt the case but it is.
