Stefan's Twitter

[Balor3012]

comparing hitler to forum goers is a smart move

[bartender_man]

The guy is a fucking loser....that's all.

This summary pretty much nails it.

and here you can't voice any opinion other than the band sucks and any song, save for a handful, written after 2000 are terrible. while this place is definitely more open minded than the family, its also not that much different in some respects.

I'd say this place while negative at times (myself included) is a lot more reality based than the family.

this place can be very negative, especially the last few years. it is more reality based and people tend to have something to back up their argument, but there are also a lot of times where the negative here is just as blind as the people drinking the koolaid over in the family. like god forbid i give hunger a +1 when rating 5.29.13

[flutterby]

The attack level on others opinions is significantly lower here. If others in the family even sniff anything amiss, you will be tarred, feathered, and banned.

Ps: Stefan is acting like an infant. Does he think he's the only person online that gets negative feedback? Scroll by and move on.

Stefan is pathetic

[pattyman313]

Wow, daily losing respect for Stefan. The guy is embarrassing

I am not part of the family...but back reading...it seems like some of the members there issue death threats if you have a different opinion.

I am not totally negative...or overtly positive...my views may not mesh with some on here...but the debate is usually lively...never gets nasty. I think it's safe to say Ants is pretty fair...and a fair barometer of the fan base.

Wouldn't surprise me if the family was created by DMB management...

Holy hell.

Jeff needs to teach Stefan about tact.

[dontdrink36]

I wonder how all this stuff would play out if DMB were still relevant in main stream media? If it all went down during their stadium touring days would it have any negative media out lash at the band?

[Roose13]

That's a tough hypothetical because they didn't suck back then.

True, I just meant if something would have happen that prompted Fonz to lose his shit so frequently and act like an 8th grade girl.

[Hilly]

I don't think the "media" would care.

The only people bothered by it are the people who claim to not be enjoying the shows anyway.

No. But thanks for asking.




Completely uncalled for by whoever asked this. Can't blame Jeff for responding at all

Uncalled for? Come on. This is ants.org hardcore man. A few internet dorks know best, and have every right to constantly berate the band members regardless of consequence. Its so cool.

If Fonz would have compared us to Hitler when they were one of the biggest bands in the world. The media would have absolutely said something. The utter shit and ridiculousness of celebrity media would have definitely mentioned it somehow.

You're definitely looking for something to be outraged by.

I guess Hitler was a little off track. Festering pile of pathetic rejects would have at least been more accurate.

no outrage here, bro. I just posed a question. I couldn't care any less about his twitter account. I was just wondering if this would have played out differently a few years ago.

[RainDog1980]

Are people still posting things to him? Or is he still that upset?

[cmyers2]

did you guys read the article that Stefan posted, seems like he's attacking the forum moderators rather than forum goers....compares forum mods to hitler, and as being schizophrenics who set up fake user names to post and control the forums

what is wrong with Stefan? attacking the mods of one of the last remaining active forums of his band

The blog tells the story of one particular forum and moderator, then offers some advice for protecting yourself online.

There is some merit to forums breeding negativity. You see it for any large fan base. You see it here. You see it for any popular movie franchise, television series, or band. I hear about it all the time with Wrestling. It's not unique to this place.

So, you're assuming that it was someone from Ants that said that?

[crashintonickdm]

Hilly got called basically hitler and yet he's still defending fonz.

Hopefully fonz tells us all to jump too.
