Hello Lil Jon,

This is Angel, from the Ravelinks board. I'm taking you up on your offer to write to you so that I can prevent your spreading any more of your INCREDIBLY BAD VIBES on the board. First off, let me say that, you're right, I've never met you. Frankly, I don't care to. You don't seem to be someone I'd want to meet. I read your negative posts and that's all I need to know about you. You brag about how long you've been in the "scene"? Well WHO CARES?! All that tells me is that you've had more time than the "18-20 year olds" to spread your bad attitude on the Ravelinks board (and God knows where else!)

Second, the reason I brought Pinwheel Cartel into this is because someone left a post (responding to yet another of your negative posts) which said, "Lil Jon is associated with the Pinwheel Cartel. Need I say more?" I made a mental note at that moment to BOYCOTT Pinwheel, figuring that any crew that would have you in it, the rest of them would be like you. For that, maybe I was wrong. Maybe Uncut and others from Pinwheel Cartel are cool. If you are saying that you are NOT associated with Pinwheel and you ARE associated with INDEPENDENT (I don't know if you mean that you are operating independently or you are with a crew called "INDEPENDENT") then I will boycott Independent, instead of Pinwheel.

Third, I think you misunderstood what I said about jungle. It wasn't anything against jungle. It's just that, if you've been paying attention, a large group of SD Ravelinks kids are very TRANCE oriented and prefer an ALL TRANCE party to a party split down the middle by jungle. Got it? So, please don't try to start that "candy" vs. "jungle" nonsense, 'cuz that would be something YOU started, not me!

Finally, I really resent that you put down so many of the kids on the board for deciding to rave sober. If you are so upset that you were seeing kids on "E" and "K" (and I don't blame you for being upset, 'cuz it upsets me, too), then seeing that some kids were going straight should have made you HAPPY.....instead, you took it upon yourself to jeer them. C'mon, even you can see that that was NOT cool!

Obviously, what I said about you on the board hurt you, and I'm sorry for that. Sometimes we get angriest about what someone says about us because, secretly, we see the truth in it. I think maybe you saw the truth in what I said. I know that now you'll probably want to lash out at me and the rest of the SD Ravelinks kids just to prove that you're tough or that what I've said hasn't gotten to you. Maybe I've only succeeded in making things worse. I hope not. Sometimes people don't realize that they're doing wrong until someone points it out to them. Maybe I was that person. Maybe not. Anyway, I thank you for taking to time to read this VERY long letter!

Peace (and I do mean that!),
