I completely agree.
I've been on many music oriented forums in my 7 years of going on the internet for hours a day, and while some of them including this one have members who know what they like and don't bother with what they don't like, I've stumbled upon forums where some members just suck up to more veteran posters and just seem to follow their music taste even if they don't like it. Yet if I post that I don't like the band I get shit from other members.
Possibly why I like this board more than most of the other ones I've posted on in the past, people are very open here and I like that nature in the internet and real life. I seriously hate stupid elitist internet users who think everyone should listen to the exact same bands as them and bully people into thinking that their music taste is "right". Luckily there is not much of that here and people here are generally very chill about things.
But yeah, I digress, people should learn to just like what they like and other people should accept that other people don't like their favourite bands or whatever. I learned that greatly when I actually started hanging out with people I'm friends with. This goes for movies as well I guess, a lot of people in my life seem to think that I don't like movies because everyone else likes them, when in actual truth I just don't like most modern mainstream cinema.
Whatever, I think I've completely missed the point of what I'm trying to say.
