Ok so I've c & p'd ARC's 'admission' from ARC that he was bluffing to get more songs...

im really sorry im posting this on the news section, but that way people will get to it faster.

I just wanna announce that i failed to deliver on the 31st...i dont have any material! i lied to get to the people who had and try to get their stuff.

Im sorry if i disappoint you, but believe me did all i could to get me and u some new music... im really sorry i didnt deliver.

And even though i lost a couple of days with this and instead i could be on vacation with my family... i suggest people to not try the same thing.

The band is great and my seek to get new music is only just for that... to listen to new music, but i decided to stop my search since i was going nowhere with this stuff. Hopefuly someday we'll hear new music from Axl and the band.

I repeat... i dont have any material in any shape or form and i can prove it. Any leaks that happen in the future have nothing to do with me.

Im officially saying goodbye to all of you, im just tired of all this. I need a break if not a definitive break.

Hope u all get to see new music, and i hope this band continues to inspire the millions of fans who follow it.

See you one day.
Sincerely,
AxlRoseCalifornia

Call me paranoid but I'm sure there's more to it then this. Phrozen commented in the thread over there that he's heard snippets of tracks from ARC and he thought it legit. So either Phrozen couldn't tell a fake (unlikely!) or he was in on the bluff (possible?).

There is also the possibility I suppose that this guy has been contacted by gnr legal and forced to shut down his activities and announce that he has in fact jack shit to quell the furore.

Who knows, I pm'd this guy many times and I never once got the impression he was BS'ing from his responses. Good liar, or has this guy been threatened with skwerl-type consequences?
