David Ellefson has received the punishment due

Newsted for bass!

just since it's not in this article, "what has already been revealed" was Ellefson grooming a minor. yuck.

pretty big omission agreed

Again?

pretty sure last time wasnt due to him being a fucking creep lmao

I’m not defending the guy because really, Megadeth has basically been Dave Mustaine and co. for the last 20 years, but didn’t the girl come out and say that she wasn’t a minor at the time?
Idk maybe I’m wrong

Being a piece of shit is my business...and business is good

@wildcard: Like with every case of grooming, if there's one girl coming forward, there's probably several who have not.

Wildcard thats what I thought as well.

Read her statement about it just a few days ago.

rockstar fucking a 19 year old seems more like the rule than the exception

good on megadave for putting his foot down and not letting his 50 year olds do it then

regardless if they ever make another album itll prob still be a 1 lol

Just to be clear, I did NOT omit the grooming stuff from the article. In fact I originally had a whole paragraph in the middle about it, but whichever moderator approved the story must've edited it out. But I saved the whole thing to my computer right before I hit submit in case it would randomly log me out like it did the first time I tried to submit it, so here's the removed paragraph:

"Ellefson's departure comes after a massive controversy beginning in early May of 2021, when videos surfaced online depicting the married 56 year old bassist naked and discharging his payload a mile high for a teenage girl on the internet. The person who leaked the videos online claimed that the girl was 17 when they met, while the girl herself, now 19, has claimed that all of their online sexual interactions occurred when she was a consenting legal adult. Regardless, the past couple weeks have been a train of consequences for Ellefson, no doubt leaving Mustaine angry again at the musician."

mods kinda sus ngl

ty strike

not a great look david not a great look at all

>depicting the married 56 year old bassist naked and discharging his payload a mile high for a teenage girl on the internet

lol kinda underrated song

« the past couple weeks have been a train of consequences for Ellefson »

I dare anyone to create a paragraph using Megadeth song titles about Ellefson departure.

this dude has a daughter and hes pulling this kinda shit

I know she's of legal age and she said everything was consensual but like goddammit your 56, you're not 19 anymore you shouldn't be doing this shit, especially with people more than half your age and you're also married. Unless some seedier shit comes out I don't think he should be cancelled, but I do think this is worthy of some kind of ire. Tired of older men refusing to act their age

You know this has been part of Rock n Roll for decades, dont you?

Of course I do doesn't make it less shitty

ah the big brain poster has logged on

wait for it

"whichever moderator approved the story must've edited it out"
Very questionable

I always thought Ellefson was one of the good guys :[

You take a mortal man, and you put him in control
Treat him like a bass god, and his penis head he’ll stroke

and Dave Mustaine's all like "seriously Dave? First mistake, last mistake!"

Society needs to quit playing this shit of "Once you're 18 you can date whoever you want" shtick.

The number 18 has fucking "teen" in the name, they're not adults no matter what the law says. There's a level of unacceptable that comes with this and that's at the 40 year gap.

"David Ellefson has received the punishment due" [2]

Grub should be fired

This morning I saw a pic of Newsted with a Megadeth t-shirt on my Fb feed. Now I know why.

Dave Ellefson had better not sneak in his house, at four in the morning, claiming he’s had too much to drink and just been “out with the boys”, creep in his bedroom, and slip into bed.

After all the media coverage and bad publicity, he should know if he wakes her he’ll wake up...ded

That’d be cool

Nut In Peace

The original Wikipedia edit will never cease to amuse me

"In 2021, allegations of Ellefson being a groomer surfaced, with videos of him jerking his schlong and busting fat loads across the internet. Additionally, rumors of Ellefson being fired and replaced with former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted have spread on the internet as well. Fellow bandmate Dave Mustaine has stated "Wow Ellefson, really? First mistake, last mistake!"

Used to be you could Trust people to keep consensual semi-sexual dalliances discreet.

"First mistake, last mistake!"

Gold

"The number 18 has fucking "teen" in the name, they're not adults no matter what the law says. There's a level of unacceptable that comes with this and that's at the 40 year gap. "

How old is 18, really?

25 today is like 13 and the 30s

In Germany, age of consent starts at 14 if both are under 21. How fucked is that.

i'm guessing they fired him in case his wife sues for divorce and drags their finances into court, also learned the other day that he's a lutheran pastor whoopz, wonder how projareds career is going

"also learned the other day that he's a lutheran pastor"
Jeff Waters & his present wife were wedded by Ellefson in that capacity

Wait til I tell y'all about Jimmie Paige

Lord, cleanse us from our sins. We're all doomed.

Imagine Dave mustaine taking the high road on any moral stance

The comments here are fucking gold.

i mean if she was a legal adult it is strange maybe given his age, but it's not really any of our business and to kick him out for that is ridiculous, I mean it's Mustaine's band he can do what he wants but the outrage mob are slandering people with fake bs

maybe people shouldn't be putting out disinformation or stuff they don't know anything about before they have all the facts and potentially ruining someone's career based on crap. I mean if it were true I'm all for him being punished. But it's been revealed that it was BS and she was of legal age.

It's still creepy but is it surprising or anything new? older guy in a metal/rock band blowing his load to legal aged teenage girls?

I died, LOL

pedophilia sells, but who's buying?

Jerking off in front of a webcam, to a teenage girl...

What could go wrong?

this thread made me listen to old megadeth for the first time and i am NOT ok with that

"Jerking off in front of a webcam, to a teenage girl...

The chick suddenly coming to the David's defense as if her consenting and initiating makes everything better. Like no. 40 year difference. Please don't.

so let me get this straight according to you people teenage girl are all bad to sleep with. so no difference between banging an 18-19 year old and banging a 15 year old for example?

The chick was legal age and consented, that's that. You may not like Dave, but who cares. You guys are more offended than the actual girl who is somehow a victim even though, she consented and was legal age LOL

These days a man can't even








Wait for it








BUST in peace

"so let me get this straight according to you people teenage girl are all bad to sleep with."

yeah

Love all the people shocked and appalled that he got kicked out despite both parties being "consenting adults", like born-again Christian Dave Mustaine is just gonna be cool with his bandmate committing adultery because it wasn't with a literal child

"as if her consenting and initiating makes everything better."

That's literally what consent does lol.

Yeah, let's not be hypocrites. Most men are attracted to younger women. But when this girl is young enough to be your daughter, it becomes a painful embarrassment to everyone around you.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Pitiful way to quit a pitiful band at this point tbh.

This is awful.

“Simple plan revives pop punk”

Ahhh some good news!

Well, back to megadave I guess

can you put a price on pedophilia?

Don’t know about pitiful band. They’re just over the hill. In saying that I thought Dystopia was solid

"That's literally what consent does lol."

"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should."

The law is wrong. 18-19 isn't an adult. It is literally a teenager.

"Love all the people shocked and appalled that he got kicked out despite both parties being "consenting adults", like born-again Christian Dave Mustaine is just gonna be cool with his bandmate committing adultery"

the layers of irony in some hard line Christians mentality would make Shrek fucking jizz.

"the law is wrong"


lol

"Mustaine is just gonna be cool with his bandmate committing adultery"

Is jerking off to a computer screen adultery?

is jerkin off to 19 year old pornstars really pedophilic activity
doesnt that make every dude alive a pedophile

Yup. And the 20 year old pornstars are now all pedophiles because dudes aged 13-19 jack off to them.

'Is jerking off to a computer screen adultery?'

some relationships operate that way(particularly religious nuts like pastor dave over here) buuut 'nope', filming and sending a video of yourself cumming in the hope of getting some nudes back is adulterous behavior. there's millions of relationships that end over shit like finding side-dms. and lets be honest has anyone here ever dated someone at least 4 years younger than themselves? it's awkward af with little commonality, couldn't imagine dating someone 30 years younger than me that shits gross, he's probably older than her parents

Riveting

anyone find the video yet?

"lets be honest has anyone here ever dated someone at least 4 years younger than themselves? it's awkward af with little commonality"

And you're basing this on...?

i dated a 19 yo coworker(who told me she was twenty but lied and was 2 months shy) when i was 23/24 (i'm 28 currently). she was taller than me and i'm 6ft lol. but yeah those were weird times, especially meeting her family and whatnot

once youre both in your 20s a 4 year age difference doesnt mean much of anything

we'd probably get along better now buuut at the time even with a small gap/'college aged', we were on completely different pages. she was also on probation for a domestic dispute right before she met me sooo yeah it didn't really work out. i'm game to date someone older than me though

So you had one awkward dating experience with a girl 4 years younger than you? Dude, like 80-90% of dating, regardless of age difference, is awkward and you have nothing in common lol. xD

she thought dragon ball z wasn't an anime. and yes it was an awkward experience dating a teenager in my mid twenties, based on that one [two year long] experience, i have zero intent to date anyone 18 or 19 and every year i grow older is another nail in the coffin for that

My friend is dating a woman 18 years older than him, he doesn't have to worry about this sort of thing

I once dated a Jewish girl who thought racial profiling was okay (this was a couple of years after 9/11). We were the same age. The world is full of dumb people and age has little to do with it.

above drinking ageee it doesn't matter as much to me idk. my ultimate point is if i was in my 50s married with two kids and a pastor at my church, i would hopefully still have zero interest in befriending teenagers on instagram

I've said it before and I'll say it again

Half plus 7 is law

Dude is 56, fucking with anyone under 35 is sketchy

"The law is wrong. 18-19 isn't an adult. It is literally a teenager."

You can vote, live on your own, get married, fight and die for your country, but fucking an old rockstar is where I draw the line!

Like yeah, it's creepy and gross but let's not completely remove the agency from her side here.

"fight and die for your country"

Yeah I don't fucking like that either.

"You can vote, live on your own, get married, fight and die for your country,"

And take on crippling amounts of debt. Oh wait, you don't even have to be 18 to take on student loan debt. Hooray!

Those nuts weren't rusting in peace.

I've literally seen this news today, so as expected: this sput thread is golden.

And ye, Dave did the right thing. (Secretly I hope Newsted will hop in as replacement.)

"Opinions are like assholes: everyone has three... I mean one..." ;-)

Jokes aside, one cannot blame Dave Mustaine for being a hypocrite, not on this one. Like he had a choice.

Yeah, Newsted, I'll drink to that!

Welcome to my penis small, I'll take some time to slap it around

Impossible not to bust these nuts, for my life decisions aren't too sound

Public wanks destroy my world

I shot my man rope way too far

ruining my career and reputation because I had a big wank on camera is my business, and business is good

"In fact I originally had a whole paragraph in the middle about it, but whichever moderator approved the story must've edited it out."

It's a step up from them blaming the victim like in the Jesse Lacey thread.

Possibly I came too much

Thought she was 18

She recorded too much

cumming is my business

and business is GOOOooOoOoOoooOOooood

How the fuck is she a victim when she was of legal age and consented the entire time. Stop diminishing actual victims of assault. By the way the woman didn't accuse him of anything at all it was some other nosy douchebag. I imagine you all have a lot in common with that person who leaked the stuff. By the way it's slander to lie about somebody in this way.

I've seen the man use the penis, seen the penis use the man

"ruining my career and reputation because I had a big wank on camera is my business, and business is good" lol he destroyed his career and didn't even get a hug or a kiss. L

Rust in Peace rips in 2021 and it will still rip in 2091
