Title: Reason people start bogus GnR rumors
Post by: Mr Cowbell ? on June 13, 2004, 05:38:56 PM
The reason people start these bogus rumors is the same reason people start computer virus. THey want to start something and see how big it can grow and see how many people it can affect. The more and more people post follow-ups to these bogus rumors the more and more it encourages these idiots to start new ones.

Think of this the people who chat on here all the time have a good 500+ posts. Why would someone who had a true rumor come here. Start an account. To post it. If it was a real rumor The hardcore fans would find it out before these fake posters post their rumor. Best thing to do it just ignore , unsourced rumors. IF THEY DONT HAVE A CREDITABLE SOURCE ignore it and dont post follow-ups.

a. they are sad people

b. the GNR community is notorioulsy gullible and easy to prey on

c. to give us something, anything, to talk about

I don't mind bogus rumours - as long as they are well constructed, it gives us something to discuss other than Axl's braids.....

don't compare thes fuckin rumors to viruses.
a virus is a work of art.maybe not the actual code in it.
but the way it's spread. DoS, failsF and everything ....
respect the 12 years old russian kid !  :peace:



i say, we should start OUR own RUMOR, and see how these fuckers in the Press relay it.

i mean, if they see US? die hard fan,saying that AXL is now bald and is doing a rap cd.... if we state that, i'm sure MTV will relay it, cause we know more than them :)

i started this idea a while back, and some were interested....
okay ? lets make up our own fake funny rumor, and see how the press and even GNR management react to that  :hihi:
