base talk Why is it ok for atrl to have a banner taking a jab at Katy?

[Mattyboy]

This is a new low for this forum. Just wondering, isn't that banner considered flame bait? But when we do it, we get warned? @admins or @mods who is responsible for this?

This place is infested with LM and Swifties and you can tell. 

[Virgos Groove]

I propose a referendum!

It's just a 35

 

What's wrong with that?

 

You were 35 one day. It's okay.

While I am here for the trashing of '143' and how horrible of an album it is, I do think that banner is a bit much and it's hypocritical of ATRL. 

[Antisocialites]

because this is a pop culture forum and not an official, important government site. no one should take banners seriously, if you do, then you're the one with the problem.

[NoAngelus]

Because some people were thought by their faves to preach the kindness. Oh wait... 

[popmusicisdead]

well it's not everyday a pop girl reaches an all-time low score of 34 (35 now). it deserves attention.

if somehow another ATRL fave (doubtfully) outpans 143, we should do it again.

 

[heckinglovato]

Because she's a Zionist

[cowboy tyrant]

Because this is a pop culture forum not a Katy Kat forum 

[BrattyBottom]

I do wish the rules were more relaxed here. We should be able to drag both users and public figures to the pits of hell.

Could it potentially be mean-spirited? Sure.

 

Do I feel a lot less bad when I remember who she made that album with? Absolutely.

 

[Aaron]

I feel like a lot of people are acting like Katy working with Luke is the biggest moral offense of all time and therefore have no issue degrading her as much as possible

[MasterExpose]

Because at it's very deep core Atrl still wants to be the mess it once was and the over exaggerated rules are just a facade.

 

I say revert back to classic Atrl and bring the good sis SYG battlefield  

[Iceland]

i think is corrupt and unprofessional!! 

[Sugar-Rush]

They've done joke/shade banners before, yet y'all never complained about them before

And not only that - the album's failure to launch and lack of quality is a massive moment in pop culture that will be remembered for the rest of Katy's career. Of COURSE ATRL will acknowledge that with a banner.

 

Sorry your fave has become infamous, but pointing out the very obvious disaster that 143 has shaped up to be isn't mean or unwarranted! 

[Erreur2 La Nature]

Thanks for this thread. While Katy deserves to be called out for the Dr Luke songs and while the album is bad, the banner is just bullying and ridiculous - even more considering that Ryan closed the MC thread because too many people were mocking her.

[Femininomenon]

ATRL is run by liddos so this site is no different than a dictatorship, it's giving Venezuela and Cuba teas 

[Kimmo]

I like it, is promo because it reminds me Katy released an album since I keep forgetting… 

[Antisocialites]

not ATRL banners being considered bullying. y'all are just dumb atp

Exactly. 

 

It's fun, are people offended by a banner?

Also, I believe this should be posted on HQ instead of Base, they've already discussed this topic. 

[Raver]

I hope Katy saw it
