thebrowncoat Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 and one of those AOL people who came on here said that Paramore wasnt going to be any other AOL vote thing. which is such bs because they are still on the AOL breakers or whatever its called. Exactly. I don't see any reason to believe what we've been told here so far until we hear it from an actual source connected with the band...or Paramore's doing their sessions.

BrandNewFan215 Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 We spoke to AOL's Technical Support ( See the past pages where one of the Paramore fans did it) and got a vague answer: Contact AOLMusic, They'll handle the problem. It's out of my hands. That's all we did. A bunch of us emailed them, (I think ALL of us did, to be exact) =) You guys were winning, so we aimed for you first.

pxnk_maria Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Hayley from paramore.org got an email back from AOL and it said: Hi Hayley, We removed Paramore from the Sessions Under Cover poll because cheaters were rigging the poll. However, don't worry! We love Paramore and are still considering them for Sessions Under Cover. Instead, channel your voting madness to the Breakers poll.

Just go to the Randomness Thread and see what I posted from what my friends said. They are idiots. And yeah, I am still voting on Breakers like crazy.

senshuk3n Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 This incident is not without precedent. See here for a similiar incident that occurred a few months ago while Daphne Loves Derby was competing with Envy On the Coast. http://z12.invisionfree.com/Daphne_Loves_Derby/index.php?showtopic=1381&st=540 Apparently AOL prefers one vote per person, although it was not explicitly stated anywhere on the site at the time (I have not checked recently). I'd explain a little more, but that thread does a lot of explaining for itself. There are a lot of fans of other bands sharing similar sentiments.

thebrowncoat Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Hey everyone - just ignore the people who keep spamming this thread with nasty comments. The staff is dealing with it and I'm sorry you guys are having to put up with it. On another note, this isn't the first time the AOL Sessions voting has been hit up by auto-voting or something similar - and the way it usually seems to work is that whatever band is winning by a ton gets removed...and then winds up doing a session a month or two later. At the end of the day, the cheating isn't good, but it does show some committed fan support...and I don't know that the poll really has much to do at all with who actually gets chosen.

nemesis90 Posted May 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 OMG it was a papa roach fan! not a brand new fan. burning blood wrote: AOLADVISR was Dustin (Destructive) BrandNew was me, because they were giving us a bad rep, I decided to pin it on a Brand New Fan. Sorry to get your hopes up. We just wanted to stir shit on their board without getting BH involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrowncoat Posted May 25, 2007 Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 Ok, I've just deleted a whole string of posts that were basically back and forths between some of you guys and the folks from the Papa Roach boards. No harm done, but in the future, if someone's saying stuff like that, contact an admin or a mod and we'll take care of it. I know it's hard not to get angry when people are being ugly about a band we all love, but fighting back kind of just eggs them on...
