Sauli's snapchat 20150923 from Buenos Aires with translation http://bit.ly/1ix67ch
I am not a shipper either......try to stay away from that
I was just very sad to see Adam hurt in anyway
However....it seems they are.... if nothing else....good friends....
This chat seems to be in Buenos Aires.....so it seems appropriate here to me....if it were another friend we would probably comment on it .....
With the little convo going on....I am happy to see a little convo here & there .....
Good idea tho Paula for a thread for extended shipping or other off topic stuff

Just popped up to say I don't mind seeing a few posts about Sauli apparently visiting Adam. They're still friends enough to enjoy each others' company, and that's good to see. I'm not going to speculate what else they may do beside dining out and sightseeing.

I don't want to muck up this thread too badly, so Marie you can move my comment if you like. I won't feel hurt or offended if you do.
Seeing as how I commented and agreed with Paula, I want to make clear what I meant in my comment.
Everyone can discuss Sauli till their hearts content. It's still a free forum for that. I just don't want to read about him or any other love interest, hookup, boyfriend or what have you in a thread about Adam and a concert. That's just me. It disrupts the flow for the information that I want. That's all I.m saying. My time gets tight and I need to make fast use of it to read the information that I want.
I said that Terrance was a ~friend and Sauli was an ex lover for the simple reason that Terrance would be treated as a passing comment of " oh look, Adam has a friend with him". With Sauli, the speculation quickly turns into tinhatting them and their relationship and no one needs that imo. The Adommy nut jobs did that and still do that and it leads to insanity. However, if tinhatting is your thing, have at it. Just put it in a separate thread and have a ball.
As a side note....why is no one here really posting anymore? Why so quiet? So many great things are happening for Adam. Isn't this what we have all been waiting for for six years? I wish more folks would post and have conversations again no matter how much we agree or disagree.

General Talk About Adam
OK, here goes nothing...
There's a vast difference between 'shipping' and recognizing that Adam, by his very own public admission, had a relationship with someone.
When I created MTT, I purposely left out all the 'shipping' threads or individual threads to everyone Adam ever had a relationship with. I felt it was uncalled for. Adam had relationships and all of them ended.
To Adam's credit, he has remained friends with his ex'es. That means that from time to time, one of his ex'es may be at the same place, at the same time, as Adam. I see nothing wrong in mentioning those encounters in whatever thread is appropriate. For example, if Adam has a Halloween party (for which we would have a thread) and so-and-so (ex - insert your particular snowflake) is there, no harm mentioning their presence!
In this case, Sauli is in Buenos Aires at the same time as Adam. It was mentioned in the Buenos Aires thread where it belonged. A few posts were made about how lovely their relationship had been and how we want to see the "12 year old, in love" Adam again, with Sauli or someone else.
Sauli is the last long-term relationship Adam had, so of course the romantics will want for there to be hope of a reuniting.
But if another one of his ex'es was in Buenos Aires, the same romantics would hope for the best for Adam too.
If ever a conversation goes on and on in any given thread about 'shipping' (which I despise) or Adam's personal life, you ALL know that I'll cut it short and move it to a more appropriate thread.
What happened in the Buenos Aires thread... the dissent about Sauli's mention, created more of an uproar than the few posts themselves or what was called for.
So everybody cut everyone else a little slack.
As it is, MTT is very much an 'information gathering' kind of board and if a little convo takes place for a few posts in a thread that is dedicated to something else, put on your big girls/boys pants and scroll on by.
/end of rant
P.S. You can have at it in this thread to discuss the pros and cons of what I've just posted.

Totally agree with this. I have been letting Marie do her social network gathering and posting and I am just writing comments for the sake of discussion...something that has been lacking since transitioning from IDF.Sealuv » Wed Sep 23, 2015 8:21 pm wrote:so agree .....miss our silly banter...and the bits of controversy among ourselves.....makes life and the threads more interesting....madamimadam » Wed Sep 23, 2015 11:04 pm wrote:And we love you just the way you are....Sealuv » Wed Sep 23, 2015 10:52 pm wrote: my modus operandi .... ......

Paula, I appreciate your dedication as a fan and participant in this forum but I just don't agree with you on restricting what we can talk about and exactly what thread it belongs in. Free flow of thoughts in a friendly conversation is what makes a forum worthwhile. Also, as long as the topic of our discussion came about in a natural process in any thread (not something totally out of left field) and is kept to just a few comments for each person involved in a conversation, then it should be acceptable.
The only thing I see as a problem in discussing Adam's relationships is if the person commenting is totally delusional (that has proven to be a problem). Knowing that Adam and Sauli are obviously meeting up is reality and we are just hoping that Sauli can fill a bit of that persistent loneliness Adam is constantly talking and singing about!
As far as Sauli is concerned, I have rarely commented about him or his relationship with Adam. I am glad Adam has a friend who, based on watching every video on the internet that was translated for us from Finish to English, I think Sauli has a very similar sense of humor and love of adventure. Their full-time commitment to each other was probably more than either of them could handle at the time. After their breakup, they both appeared to re-assess what was important in their lives; they both got very serious about improving their health and fitness and are concentrating on their careers and personal happiness. It's a well known fact that you need to be happy with yourself before thinking about being in a relationship with someone else. All relationships (marriages, friendships, families, co-workers) are challenging and can be hard work! Adam had to tour and make his next record; Sauli wanted to work but his opportunities were very limited in USA and he was probably very homesick. Grown ass men need to work in order to feel a sense of accomplishment!
None of us know what will happen in the future but for now, if they find pleasure in each other's company occasionally, then that's perfectly fine with me.
Edit: Guess Marie beat me to the punch and basically expressed a lot of my thoughts in a different way! We must have a little e.s.p. between us!

I am also missing the ongoing conversations and fun we had.
And I strongly dislike to be told what I am able to talk about or not as long as there are no insulting or dissing someone. If I do not like something or don`t want to be involved, scrolling is my friend.
Some days ago Rufus mentioned that the whole family and friends are in Rio and we saw Brians daughter. People on twitter mentioned that Adam had nobody being there for him and it made them feel sad. I felt the same.
So I am happy that Sauli has been flying over and Adam has someone with whom he can share the excitement and joy of this tour.

I miss the convo too
However....I am very thankful for the continued streams of Adam info !!!
Thanks guys for keeping us informed of all things Adam
I am also glad Adam has a friendly travel buddy from time to time....
I think we should stay away from the 'ships'....

Anyways...one can also use the scroll------>

JEEEEZZZZ, GUYS !!
There are more posts arguing about "Sauli mention posts" than there are actual S. mention posts.
Since obviously I started this by a simple informational post in the Buenos Aires thread ("obviously Sauli is in B.A. Should be a frisky Adam show Friday")...Imma gonna have a shot at the last word.
Everybody needs a chill pill. That post could have said ... replace Sauli with Mombert, Terrance, Lady Gaga, Cheeks, Danielle, etc.... and it would have been nothing more or less than a simple comment and a reflection of Adam's anticipated "showing off a little bit" performance. No difference.
So, as Love2Lurk said....scroll!!! AND CHILL!!

I so totally agree with this comment!! I think for some reason, this board has become more of an informational board, and less open to conversation and exchanges than our old board (IDF). IDK what can be done to change that...surely having more members would help...and maybe a few other things. I know that I find myself posting a lot less here than I did on IDF.Carmi » Wed Sep 23, 2015 11:57 pm wrote: As a side note....why is no one here really posting anymore? Why so quiet?

Perhaps Marie would like to open a thread for us to discuss this...or move this discussion to the Suggestions thread?

Agree. Mentioning that Sauli is there is no different than mentioning if Danielle is there. And it's okay to be happy for Adam that someone he is obviously close to is there to share in the adventure and excitement.vistadiva » Thu Sep 24, 2015 9:34 am wrote:JEEEEZZZZ, GUYS !!

However, I wouldn't like to see threads turn into 'relationship speculating' (which this in no way did). If Marie decides that there is a need for that and opens up a separate thread, I will avoid it like I did the one at IDF, History proves that the speculation turns into crazy made up stories about the lives of real people. I believe that some people forget that Adam isn't a character in some fanfic. It gets a bit creepy.
As for the other issue -- why so few are posting and why we aren't having conversations. Personally, I've found that I don't post as much because when I do find something to post it ends up in Marie's daily post in each thread and I figure it's pointless to have stuff repeated. And if I'm being honest (sorry Marie) I rarely read those posts.
And the lack of conversation -- I think it's a combination of things -- there aren't as many of us here and the threads tend to be more informational. which is great. I love how organized things are here. If I want to find something relating to a specific concert I know exactly where to look.
Maybe we need to remember this thread where we can talk all about Adam (without the relationship speculating ). Honestly, I don't know what the answer is. I do know that I still enjoy checking in here and sharing this journey with all of you.
I can see I was of no help.
