Well I can't wait until I do get corrected. There are way too many of yall who take the "about that life" thing too far and it rubs people the wrong way. When that thread about the NYC uppity moms made and many people equated them to PopGAF that says alot about how many of them act and address non-PopGAF members. Nothing sexist about it, it is how you act, Tween males act completely different so I'm not going to equate them to you. Hip Hop-GAF (I post frequently) acts like tween males, but nowhere near the extend of PopGAF.
I've posted a few times over the year in PopGAF and that's how I've formed my view on you guys from my interactions with you those few times. I'm sorry I don't like some shitty artist's album, I'm sorry I'm not of your class, I'm sorry I think Y artist isn't as great as Z artist. PopGAF is the OT equivalent of Sony/MS console war-GAF. Just too crazy and too personal over something that...shouldn't be. If your more passionate members turned it down a notch I'm sure more people would love to join in discussion, but you guys create this wall that makes it incredibly hard for others without as much knowledge and love for artists to join in without feeling like a lesser and to me on a videogame forum that is the most hilarious yet tragic shit ever. Hell you'll meet less resistance with Brony-GAF than popGAF...that ain't right.
This is the vibe I get from PopGAF from my exposure and interactions, obviously others MMV, but I only call them like I see them and I got 20/20 vision.
Just sayin
/shrug.
And my bad to Black-GAF for completely derailing this topic worse Clive Owen (movie)
You take us waayyy too seriously.
I'm not going to sit here and completely trivialize PopGAF like some do. Truth is music and Pop culture gets discussed in the thread fairly often - way more than people who
claim to read the thread ever seem to want to admit. It's not ALL shade-throwing. That being said though, there IS a ton of shade-throwing, but it's just the fabric of our community. Hardly any of it is serious.
I think the biggest misconception about PopGAF and how we behave in the thread is that we somehow
invented all of this. The truth is that the stan language, the heavy gif usage, the "reading" of your "lesser faves" for absolute "filth" existed well before there was ever a PopGAF. Read the comments section and forums of a lot of Pop music/Pop culture websites and you'll see a lot of "PopGAF behavior." It's a part of the culture, and sure there might be a bit of a learning curve, but I don't think anybody would want it any other way.
I don't think anyone in PopGAF has been openly hostile to non-regular posters. We welcome EVERYONE (well, unless they step too far out of [l i n e], and then a thorough reading is in order).
You have to admit that you have quite a few regs who bring that catty posting style over to completely unrelated subjects with no context. That hurts the community's image.
PopGAF isn't the only community guilty of this. Do you know how many threads I've deleted before posting because I knew they would just turn into sexy pic threads?
