What's the Point?
This is something a few people have brought up, and I can't help but agree. What's with people joining GSB if they don't like Green Day?! I mean, I know GSB has a message board, blogs, and the blahs... but the fact of the matter is- so do alot of other sites! If you don't like Green Day, don't join THIS site!
I completely understand the people who joined a while ago and maybe don't like Green Day much anymore- that's fine. The important part is that when they joined, it was because they liked Green Day. They aren't the people that bother me at all.
The ones that absolutely infuriate me are the people who join up just for the blahs or the message board, and don't like Green Day at all... maybe never did. They're just joining to chat with people. There's a ton of other sites that are specifically for that!!! Or maybe they like MCR and not Green Day? Again: GREEN DAY site!!! Even if there are alot of MCR fans, this site isn't an MCR fan site. Or maybe they like another band besides Green Day altogether. GO FIND A SITE FOR THEM!
Maybe it sounds like I'm trying to be a site dictator, that isn't the case. But this just drives me absolutely insane. I'm a huge Green Day fan and proud of it. GSB is meant to be a site for Green Day fans, and hey... I'd like to be able to talk with other fans. Not people who don't like the band.
And before people go all "Well there's not much going on with Green Day to talk about lately..." I ALREADY know that. But that doesn't change the fact that there are alot of people who won't talk about it even when it does happen because of the sheer fact that they don't like the band anyway. They may even insult it. I know there's quite a few complete Green Day haters on the site.
I've seen this mentioned by a few other Green Day fans on this site that are completely sick to death of it. I must say, I am as well.
I think the Green Day fans need to take back the site.

sure this doesnt have to beexclusivly for green day fans, but it's hardly fair that if we talk about green day we get shot down.

I agree with my dear Voomy.
I mean, you don't have to be obessed, but, you don't have to can the living sh*t out of them either!
I'm sick of all the MCR-ness.

I was Green Day obsessed when I joined nearly two years ago. And I still am completely Green Day obsessed. :cassie:
All these people should go join Mibba. That's for everybody. *nods*

Gsb is meant for green day fans.. but some people on here who don't like green day are nice.. on the other hand, i guess that's what mibba is for.. all everybody talks about on there is mcr..(not that that's a bad thing.)

Then maybe it shouldn't be considered a GREEN DAY fan site

Gsb isn't just meant for people who like Green Day, it's meant for anyone who wants to join.
Kurtni, March 29th, 2007 at 11:10:19pm
I don't think it should be ALL Green Day talk ALL the time. It's totally fine to talk about other things... but to join a Green Day fansite when you don't even like them is beyond me...
Teenage.Assassin, March 29th, 2007 at 06:39:43pm
I agree.
It's like.... what. the. f*ck?
And no, you're not being a site dictator
that's just PLAIN COMMON SENSE!

What annoys me is that when someone ACTUALLY makes a Green Day blah, the people who joined and DONT like Green Day all come in and start an attack with their "Green Day sucks.", "Who cares?", "Green Day are sell-outs" comments.
It makes me want to tear my hair out. I was like "People on this site do care, actually. It IS a Green Day site, after all. If you don't like it, f*ck off."

I was completely obsessed with Green Day when I joined GSB. I practically spent my whole time looking up pictures and information on them (that's how I found GSB!) and then as time went by I became less obsessed, then at the start of the year (or the end of last year, not sure) I became really obsessed again and I tried to make everybody on GSB be obsessed and it pissed me off cause everyone was all "MCR" and I can't say I hate MCR, but I can't say that I love them. I like their music, but I just can't obsess over them.
It is annoying though, when people come on GSB just to piss others off saying stuff like "Green Day are fags, they can't play music" and then they start fights and everything T_T

...
I don't really like MCR but I joined INO. It isn't just about the bands. Sure, it's a bonus if you like the band and you've got a better chance of getting on with the members at the site if you like the band, but as long as you're not going around showing off that you don't like the band, I don't see the problem. It's an open site for anyone.
I understand that some people will actually proclaim how they don't like Green Day over and over. But what can you do? No matter where you go, you are always going to run into one jerk-off that you don't like or one that is just on the site to incite trouble.
You might not be meaning to come off like a site dictator, but some people are going to see it that way anyways. It's a community, what's wrong with getting along with other people regardless of what they like?
