I'm an EXO-L, so it's suddenly my fault?

wooyefan:

ughperf:

Shawols were banned forever from MBC Music Core (to support Minho) because of EXO-L today.

EXO-L took pictures (even though it’s forbidden) at the live performance today and got caught, said they were Shawols and left unpunished while Shawols can never ever come and support Minho again.

Tired of EXO-L having a reputation? Then help Shawols. Tweet @MBCMusicCore with pictures you can find here. We have to show the Korean EXO-L that it’s NOT okay to blame another fandom and that we don’t support rule breaking. 

Nah I’m more tired of being held liable for other people’s actions. Don’t blame half the fandom for doing something a handful of people did. Go ahead and tweet, but in all honesty don’t appeal to us by throwing out bad reputation at us. Thanks.

I'm with wooyefan on this one.

Because of course, everyone has to bring up over three million people as responsible for the actions of a ridiculously small minority. And yeah, I get that EXO-L does indeed have some ed up fans. But, they don't represent us one bit. Same logic with Cassiopeia back in the day. Just cause that one chick gave Yunho poisoning through a drink, doesn't mean that the entire fandom ing insane. Just that chick.

All the ed up happening around the world should push through the fact that the actions of a FEW do not represent the WHOLE. I can come up with a lot of examples right now where that is happening in the world if you want.

And the whole "Well, you decided to stan EXO. If you're tired of the accusations, you should stan another group. Otherwise, you all brought it on yourselves. Don't be surprised." is frankly bull.

I have random people from a lot of fandoms (which will remain unnamed) telling me that what happened was MY fault as an EXO-L. Stuff that's happening half way across the world from me. Of course I'd be ing surprised, who wouldn't be to be honest. And hey, it's not my fault that EXO's my bias group and it ain't my fault that I'm a huge fan of theirs. So why are you all incriminating me for something that I DID NOT DO.

And also, I find it funny when people end up saying things like "EXO would be NOTHING without _______. They can't sing live and have to rely on lipsyncing the entire time." and stuff like that.

Like.....first off, you must have selective hearing cause EXO has definitely sung live before, especially with their most recent stages. And secondly, how does that tie in and support your argument. What does targeting the group have to do with targeting a few people supposedly being "EXO-L". My brain cannot comprehend this logic.

 

All I know is that I am remaining as an EXO-L regardless of whatever is thrown at me, the boys, or the rest of the fandom. And to the EXO-L out there, don't give into the of other fandoms just because they tried to make you go through the "guilt trip" of being a fan. You do NOT to be guilty of being an EXO-L. Love it, embrace it, love what you truly love.

If anything, I'll make a tweet because I love Minho. But I sure am not doing it because I feel guilty that some people assuming to be "EXO-L" ed up and that antis are using that to put me, my fandom, and my group down.

And for the haters, well you can direct your comments on the official Call Me Baby music videos of EXO.

First off, why can't you take pictures?? I swear I see fan cam pics all over tumblr...
And whether it was Shawols or Exotics isn't it a little unreasonable to ban ALL of the fandom?? I've heard rumors like this before. The ban won't last long. Why would they even believe it was Shawols. We are usually calm. ExoLs are more prone to risky behavior. Not all of them though.
The whole lip syncing thing used to bother me. Now I'm over it. ALL SM SINGERS DO IT!! It's not only Exo. And we all know they can sing. There's proof everywhere. Even Chanyeol, Lay, and Suho have great voices. They aren't even the "singers" of the group. But you can't complain about them lip syncing when their dances are always difficult and not every member has a strong voice.

I'm still an EXO-L but more in support for the guys rather than some of the fanbase, just like I still support TVXQ/JYJ, BAP, Apink, SNSD etc and to try and show that there are still decent/calm EXO-L's who don't start stuff with other fandoms or fans. Everywhere ExO-L haters go they're ALWAYS going to find hateful/ignorant fans.

You simply cannot judge a WHOLE fandom based on the actions of the sasaengs/stalkers or antis in the fandom.

I'm apart of multiple non KPop fandoms such as Harry Potter, Ghost Adventures, Narnia series, anime/manga and guess what: They have bad fans to within the fandom. It's not just EXO-L's that do insane crap.

*sighs*

Oh well. Not much we can do about the crazies in the end :/ It is just a pet peeve of mine when if some haters in the fandom do multiple things wrong, EVERYONE in the fandom gets picked on it's not justifiable or however you'd put that.


PS: Hope you don't mind if I commented by the way ^^;

Preach gurl. I agree with you. Its not fair to blame the WHOLE fandom just because a handful of crazy chicks wrong doings. One fan's wrong doings DOES NOT present the WHOLE fandom.

Isn't it like transitive relation or something? A = B, B = C, thus A = C?

Dreaming Boy messed it up though. As a fan page admin she should have known better.
