That's embarrassing to even be a fan of the same band if they have fans like this.   I grew up always thinking their fans were smarter and more mature than most other bands, but the fact is they're no different than the meathead jocks that listen to Blink 182 and call everyone trolls that dont love that band. Same exact thing. I guess you've been labeled a Troll at the Blink 182 site as well.

I know a few people that like them, and know how they react when you tell them you dont like them. They react just like you do instead of saying, "hey thats ok man, you dont have to like them".   Instead people like you make topics about trolls, which is actually a trolling topic. Tell me, what was the purpose of this topic other than to start a fight? Rush fans are no different than Blink 182 fans. Both bands have their share of ignorant asshole fans.

Most riled up = losingit2k. Not me.

 

Others have said it best....you cannot seriously come to a RUSH FAN SITE and drop a load of crap about the new album, which we're all in a honeymoon phase with, and not expect to be labeled a troll.

 

You just can't. Not in that context.

So what if they do?  It's an internet message board.  It's not like they're killing your wife and family.  Boo hoo, someone on an internet message board not only disagrees with me, but they called me names! I'm not trying to be a jerk, but come on man.  It's a nicer place when people can express varying opinions without being called out for disagreeing with the main conforming opinion.

TRF is never been a board that has had a lot of namecalling, which is one of the reasons I love the place. There are other places where the mods look the other way when the discussion gets personal, but traditionally this has not been TRF.

 

And frankly, I'm surprised that this thread is still open, because we're not really covering any new ground here.
