Happy Wednesday! :)
There seems to be a trend that's ramping up here in R&P lately and it's a rather obnoxious one. I really wish I could link to the question that was posted here recently, but it has been either removed or deleted. Anyway, it was from a Fall Out Boy fan who asked what seemed to be a harmless question about musical preferences and her love of the band, but they put all sorts of stuff, including threats, in the Additional Details with words like "rotting corpse" and "maggots". It would be one thing if it was the first time I had seen something like this, but the threatening posts are becoming much more of a fixture here.
As a teenage fan I can remember really liking the bands I did and, at the most, having little crushes. But to threaten someone who didn't like them...that wasn't me, and it didn't seem to be most teenagers in general.
What do you think is going on here? Are the bands inspiring this type of mania or is it solely the actions of the listener?
