I do not have the patience to sift through that shit on the reg, God bless people like Ry. this is how i imagined it. happy for those who want to spend their days doing that in hopes of having brief exchanges with the guy but i'll gladly read the cliff notes on here. 1 Quote

boxelder Posted February 20, 2021 Posted February 20, 2021 it was fun for a day and i appreciate that it exists but it’s a lot to keep up with. the forum conversations are less obsequious towards the band too 2 Quote

I don't know, I always just got the impression he could be a real prick if he wanted to be. I never got that feeling with Tom. 1 Quote
Ghent Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Probably because you're not a blink fan. There are tons of instances of Tom being a total prick to fans. Quote

Dude when you first showed up to these boards you bragged that you weren't a blink fan and just liked the community lol. Has something changed? Did you really like Nine or something? That would be cool and all, but news to me Quote

Has something changed? Did you really like Nine or something? That would be cool and all, but news to me I'm going to ask you to find that post. I believe what I said was I don't listen to them much anymore and I don't. It doesn't mean, I'm not a fan. You know, the world is full of color, I think you'd enjoy it. Nine was miles better than California and I liked it quite a bit ... as I've said multiple times. It had some duds but it was all around a solid effort. Quote
