The Rumor

Okay... I cracked down the thing abot the fb RPers getting in trouble... IT'S JUST A RUMOR.

How I know?

The way from what I gathered is this rumor was most likely started on tumblr or twitter...

Neither of these are reliable sites. Unless it's from an OFFICIAL tumblr or twitter or anything official.

Plus the tweet Junhyung posted... that was posted within the same hour that the rumor was started. And apparently 34 RPers from Singapore and Philippines were caught?

Okay umm... it takes a hell of alot longer to track someone thought IP addresses and pinpoint them to a particular person. Especially since these days a lot of households have multiple computers. And facebook would have to go through a load of databases JUST to find IP addresses... and the pinpointing thing would have to take about a long time for other countries. Where is Facebook HQ located... in CALIFORNIA, USA. Wouldn't it be more logical that if people were getting caught... it would be from the US first because it would be easier to pinpoint where the RPers are and their identities?

See where there's a little thing messed up here?

Plus on tumblr and twitter one can easily just put "source: *insert site here" or "credit: *insert here*" 

And we get idiots that believe it.

You guys remember the rumor about Super Junior's concept for 5jib was rainbow and Sungmin was going to have green hair for it right?

Well.. that was a rumor started by one of my friends as a joke... and she put credits for a twitter...

And what happened?

People believed it!

And it was only a rumor.

Therefore what lesson do we learn, everyone...

Don't believe everything you read on the internet.

Plus if Junhyung was saying something against RPers... wouldn't he had said more stuff?

Edit: Okay now there's this thing with Dongho saying something to other idols.... uhhh....

From what I saw... it's people SAYING THIS....

There's no literal reliable source. -.-

This is a case of he-said, she-said. 

That isn't a reliable way to know.

There's no proof.

No article.

Nothing.

It would have showed up on allkpop, ningin or any other RELIABLE kpop news site if it was true because things like this is big stuff, people. 

-.-

Therefore in conclusion...

STILL A RUMOR.

It scared me at first but then I finally realized, there isn't much to be scared of (though I'm still scared), but like you said, Junhyung could have said more and posted more tweets about his mindset about us roleplayers. But i guess it has already caused a lot of commotion in some roleplays already, even mine. ._.

Yes, you dont even need a source, you just need [conf] as i remember during last year somebody just went '[confirmed] elfs didnt receive the news as snsd teared it] and 5secs later its everywhere. Then the person told me its fake. So yea...

Agreed. I follow allkpop on Twitter. If anyone were to know about this, it would be them. I haven't heard anything or seen anything posted by them about it.
