I think it can be compared to how we posted messages from the Orlando Bloom site during the whole, Bon Jovi vs. Orlando Bloom for a magazine contest. It's fun to see other fan groups reactions to things compared to ours. I think we're a little more mature than backstage with what we say about certain issues.
I don't think it necessarily has to do with maturity. Its just that here you get both sides of an arguement. You don't like something the band is doing...you are entitled to your opinion without fear of being kicked off the boards or hounded by a lynch mob.

That is why I left Backstage. I got a bunch of really nasty PMs once because I said I didn't like All About Loving You.
Seriously? Its that kind of behaviour that gives Backstage such a bad name.

Do you think that if JT never existed and so many people were treated like ShaSha, that the remarks of the few from backstage will take all the fun out of loving Bon Jovi? It just takes one rotton apple to ruin the bunch...

There's one truth around it:

Backstage is starting to fear us, we are growing very fast

THAT'S ****ING GREAT

I don't think it would take the fun out of loving Bon Jovi. You can love the band without posting on a message board. But I think it could definitely make someone think badly of their fans. Which is sad because obviously not all fans are like that.

The way i look at it, is that here at jovitalk, were allowed to say exactly what we want to. Yes, I am talking about negative comments towards the band. We all know we love the band, or we wouldnt be here, but at least we are allowed to have an open mind and discuss the things which we dont happen to like about bon jovi. At Backstage, any negative comment made, and the post/thread is deleted, which I find to be pathetic. Fan message boards / communities should be about fans being able to voice their own opinions and not have to put up with anyone slating them for having a different belief from someone else.

That is why i will always chose Jovitalk over Backstage.

Hehehe..don't worry, I was once banned over there. That is really sad as I didn't even do anything. But somebody got my name taken off of the blacklist, and I am now free to post again.

There are quite a few people posting here and there incl. myself. Some people there annoy me with their "Jon and Mrs. B are just great and can't do any wrong"-attitude but there are also some "normal" people there.

I really have no opinion of Backstagers, I think it's getting old that this subject is brought up over and over again. I think I've been over to backstage 2 times this year, and have no desire of going back. It's boring. I had my fair share of trouble there last summer and I've never even been there, seemed like everyone knew me (read: thought they knew)

Anyways, in essence it's just two messageboards, and I think very often this whole thing is ridiculous, the way people head over there just to get banned and cause trouble, much the same way as people from there come over here to cause trouble.

To be honest, I'm very tired of all this backstage is crap -mentality, I think some people take these things way too seriously and have way too much time in their hands to be obsessing over something like that.

If you don't like Backstage, ignore them!
