Stanning used to be so different from the way it is now up until 2012.
From 2011 and previously, stanning for pop stars was like joining a cult. You couldn't just like these people's music and post about them; you had to dedicate your online life to these people and make sure that you would stand up for them no matter what.
The Monsters took it too far though; they were even making it part of their real lives, especially during the Born This Way era, and they would wish suicide on your mother if you didn't like any little thing about "Mommy Monster."
