RE: The topic that will cause contraversy and death for years to come
I was kinda getting tangled up in all of the responses, and I can't really come up with an answer that would communicate what I'm really thinking, so I'm not going to respond about VAMPS, but as for this:
Quote:Is it just me or is that whenever I start a topic on music-based forums I can't make a simple thing without people misunderstanding and getting either extremely defensive or causing a ton of controversy?
I think it's because words are so effing hard lol. And communicating your thoughts over text is much harder because we can't hear the tone of your voice or see your body language which can change things dramatically. Also, because this isn't a face-to-face conversation we can't interrupt you in between and ask you to clarify. So, we read and reply based on our understanding of what was written. You read and reply based on your understand of what was written and clarify any misunderstandings that may have occurred. It's a slow process.
But as for this thread, yes, there may have been misunderstandings, but no, I don't think it has turned into a controversy. Everyone has simply spoken their take on the subject, but I don't see anyone overreacting. This topic as a whole though, is pretty interesting. Although the live reports and the other OMG VAMPS are AWESOME posts are fun because we can flail freely, it's also nice to sit down and think about the band and hear people's opinions on it other than "they're awesome." Because we all know they're awesome! That's why we're gathered here!
