IU teaser for her new album

lol what? I don't shit on anybody except for Gyuri because I don't like her. Oh and the new WG song which I didn't like. And who says I'm offended because someone doesn't like that leaked SNSD song? Someone said they didn't like it, I said I did. Roffles comes in with his typical trolling bullshit that adds nothing to anything other than trying to get people pissed off. I'm just laughing about it because it's so damn pathetic you get so raged about someone liking an SNSD song.

edit: and you idiots try to troll me on twitter, it's even more pathetic.

While I wasn't the one who tempbanned Roffles, the only reason I didn't is because I was away from the thread when all this crap over the past few pages was going on. While Roffles does occasionally make good points, the way he chooses to communicate in this thread has been getting out of control for a while now and he needed to be brought up short. There's no excuse for posting the way he does in this thread, particularly how he's been posting recently.

As for the whole SONE trolling/baiting/etc. trend that's been going on, it needs to stop. While I understand that some people in this thread are sick of the large amount of SNSD content that is in this thread, everyone needs to understand that shitting up the thread is not an appropriate response. It bothers me just how many people are idolizing or admiring how Roffles has been posting recently, and it's concerning that the tone of the posts has seemed to be following his lead. There are limits to what is allowed in this thread in terms of inappropriate language, and a certain level of mutual respect is expected amongst members.

This thread has had problems for a while now, but I thought that it was improving lately in terms of how people were keeping their flaming to a semi-reasonable level and the level of animosity was not as high as it has been. People seemed to have started to accept that certain members are very enthusiastic about certain groups/idols/stars/etc., and were having fun teasing each other about it. The contents of posts were generally better, although we have been letting a lot of posts with too little content (i.e. just a link to a video or image with nothing else) go by. Then the past few pages happened and I'm left shaking my head.

Everyone needs to accept that everyone else has different tastes than they do. Just because you're not a fan of a certain idol or group, it doesn't mean that someone else can't be or vice-versa. While excessive and blind adulation can get annoying, and it's okay to call someone out on it, it does not justify the type of reaction that Roffles displayed or anything close to it. While it's okay to dislike an idol or group and express exasperation, frustation, or bafflement at how others may disagree, there's no need to refer to them in excessively derogatory manner either. I've come to accept that "troll" is just going to be a common term, but referring to idols as "whores", "bitches", or anything similar is not acceptable.

Wake up and try to post like you're mature individuals who can communicate in a semi-respectable manner. Even if you're not, figure out how to act like it or expect tempbans and/or warnings.

I'd post another group instead given the current atmosphere, but frankly I don't have any other groups's pictures that haven't already been posted...

IMO it's cause everyone else can read people shit about their groups/idols but won't have anywhere near the reaction SONEs do. ofc this is a broad generalization, but I have stated numerous times that I think that 2ne1 is the worst band ever to grace this earth and people like Megaliskuu (I think?) who actually like 2ne1 can read that comment, think "oh, he has a different opinion", and move on. People say the new-old SNSD song is terrible, and you get a reaction like Moonwrath's. Am I saying that Roffles' trollbait was ok? No, but with any other group it wouldn't have escalated to the scale that it did.

And on an actual KMD note, KJK is the shit, can't wait till he comes out with more new material. Also can't wait to wake up to a T-ara performance tomorrow. If it's anything like the practice vid it'll be awesome.

I don't get this whole "Sones should just ignore trolls, if they did, nothing would go wrong, so this is all the sones' fault". If there were no people trolling then there wouldn't be jack shit anywhere. What's the point of blaming the sones for their reactions instead of looking more at the people who are irking the sones in the first place?

I don't think this new KARA (Japanese) song was posted.
+ Show Spoiler +

I don't like it. Maybe it's because Step was just so good, this currently feels like a letdown to me, maybe it'll grow on me. It's all about the performances anyways so we'll see how they choose they promote it with the new album...

The chorus is ok, rest of the song, meh.
