General TSIS Bitching

This second account touches on an important point - why post thousands of times in the forum dedicated to a band you no longer like?

This might be my favourite merge I've had the privilege to witness.

truepjfan? Come on guys, the second accounts are just getting lazy. This isn't going to cut it in a post-MindyourTanners RM.

Maybe his name and post are ironic?

I did it on the iPad so I was a bit nervous

I just think its sad that second accounts get used to say this sort of stuff. It's obviously how someone really feels but is afraid to say it.

A lot of people socialise here. I'm fairly sure that everyone's a Pearl Jam fan, even if that's pre-2003 Pearl Jam.

I've kind of said it before even on the harmless account, but you get shouted down and give up, so never mind. This is pretty much what alcohol is for.

I think I'd socialise elsewhere but maybe being contrarian is fun?

You'd just leave your online friends you'd developed over many years? That's your choice, bro.

Anyway, you didn't address my other point; even the "trolls" are fans of PJ before they lost their way and started sucking. Therefore they're still welcome on a PJ board.

Say, I think I'll join a Metallica board and forever harp on about how the later albums can never match the majesty of the earlier period. Oh, and I'll do it ad infinitum ad nauseam because that adds a lot to the current discussion.

Are you fucking kidding me? You don't think there are Metallica fans doing that?

And you don't have friends online?

Every new PJ song is a rip-off of an older PJ song, and by the way, it turns out that the older PJ song also sucks now for some reason that I am not smart enough to figure out because I don't have 5000 posts. (run-on sentence) This was probably posted in the wrong section and will quickly be moved or deleted to save the egos of the hipsters in this forum.

Has anyone here claimed that Pearl Jam is ripping off themselves? I don't remember that statement ever being made.

There's a friend and an online friend. I'd take a real life one over an internet persona any day.

And as for the other my point still stands. There are people here who have hated the band's output for over ten years. Thus, I find their predictable contributions boring.

Whether or not you can make real friends online is irrelevant. Many who stay here feel like they have.

So do I find troll posts annoying, more often than not. But unfortunately it doesn't take away their right to be here, since they are technically still a Pearl Jam fan, which doesn't require that you enjoy their present-day incarnation.

My nose itches

Find a board dedicated to another band with similar longevity that doesn't have just as many people clamoring for majesty of said artists earlier work. You won't.

Some Pearl Jam fans are such delicate fucking flowers.

The official forum locked this discussion because it was "rude," but we're the free speech forum. I say any member of the Pit that wants to come here and tell us what twats we are, should have a thread to do it in!

i remember the old website.. but had never been on the forum (in recent years).. just got the stat tracker, so its easy enough to jump over there... WOW.. those fuckers don't like ANYTHING. that place seems even more miserable than this place.

god damn, WTF is with you people.

I was curious about SPEEDY MCCREADY's claim to have been banned due to a death threat, so I looked it up in the old board.

And, uh.

That guy's got serious fucking issues, doesn't he?
