watchthesky Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 it's good to meet you too everyone coming along so far seems really nice, let's hope it stays that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salinas Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Ahh glad it's not just me then. The people I feel for in this situation are the PFCers and Paramore. They've put everyone together for equal opportunities and the numbers must be dropping, especially the posting of PFCers. The last thing that Taylor, Jeremy and Hayley want is for people to be fighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caman Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 I've just paid one of my infrequent visits to the discussion threads on .net and I find it impossible to understand why the comments of one user have not been jumped on from a great height. It does the credibility of the band's official site no good whatsoever to allow posts which are at best juvenile and at worst outright online bullying to go unchecked. At a time when a number of deaths have been attributed to misuse of the internet, I feel there should be some serious moderation in place. I'm extremely pleased that the old PFC message boards were - and this site is - populated by pleasant, sensible, thoughtful people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchthesky Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 i have a sneaking suspicion i know which user you're talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catie Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 It's pretty upsetting because they clearly didn't listen to feedback from the users and it's only hurting them. I have no reason to go on .net between the bullying and the awful "forums" I don't even need to go on there for Paramore news because I can get that elsewhere.

I'm glad we have this platform instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kircb493 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 i have a sneaking suspicion i know which user you're talking about If we're all thinking of the same person, then yeah, they are unbelievable. Clearly just posting on those forums to cause trouble. Any post I've seen of theirs has just been plain rude and hateful, and unnecessarily so.

watchthesky Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 assuming we're all thinking of the same person, i swear the entire time i was arguing with them a couple weeks ago i was just like genuinely don't understand how someone could get enjoyment out of being so vile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creatingcolours Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 ^ I just hope that one day they will grow up and think back on all of this and feel really stupid! I try and remind myself that you can't really tell how old people are on the Internet, and younger fans don't always see the full picture of what spreading hate anonymously can do. It doesn't make it excusable, but it at least stops me wanting to yell at them quite so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but I get the impression that this person is old enough to know better - but doesn't 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salinas Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I'm not on the .net boards enough to know which forum user you're all talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParentAtTheDisco Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 Maybe not the most trafficked music site, but so sad it's gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
