Is this really a STAN?
Quote:
Hello fans, I'm back just to clear some things up.
As you all know I was banned because there's an issue with addressing the truth in here, I was too harsh while criticizing Aguilera's vocals. I am not backtracking, I don’t take back anything of what I said, except calling Xtina “a terrible live singer”. I for sure exaggerated with that one and maybe the overall way I presented my opinion was not adequate, and was quite off-putting. That doesn't mean I am a hater/troll, most of the time it takes one or two videos of those occasions when she truly delivers masterful vocals to regain hope in her.
I do get that there are quite a lot about her that make you all want to support and stand up for Christina. Every single one of us likes different things about her. For me, the reason I like her and support her, is her voice. I don’t relate that much to her lyrics, and even though I enjoy quite a lot of her songs I wouldn’t say it is THE reason I am interested in her. Having said that, I guess it becomes obvious that’s why I am very harsh when it comes to having an opinion on her vocals.
What I expect from her are great vocals. Something she has not delivered since Bionic days, excluding a couple of moments here and there. But of course I'd love to see her succeed again, but as long as she delivers great vocals, it'll be fine for me. This stanning world is awkward to me cause apparently you have to worship everything they do, even if it's not good or right. Anyway, that's why I don't consider myself a stan. I have supported her ever since BTB days, I've bought her albums and singles, I just don't really care about music videos, interviews, looks and all those things you all cream yourselves over. If she does something I don't like I am gonna be vocal about it, and I tend to have a very harsh way of stating my opinion (in general). I don't really get why I should be condescending just because I like her or just because I am in "her" forum. Avoiding reality, just because it isn't the way we'd want, is not gonna make a change. That's just delusion.
That's the way I see it. If you all want to keep thinking she's a marvelous vocalist (based on a technical level of course) and that her vocal abilities haven't declined, then FINE, so be it. To each their own, I won't waste more time arguing about that topic (cause I am/will be banned, lol) no, seriously, there's no point. I won't change your opinion, so whatever.
However, other than criticizing her vocals I have never bashed her in here. Therefore, it was quite surprising to see Tink giving “bypassing all second chances, etc.” as the reason of being perma-banned. Especially when there are some members that constantly bash and bring her down even when she’s not part of the topic being discussed just to praise another girl and bring that one up. I bet you all know who I am talking about. I guess constant low-key trolling can get you far in her. And the funniest thing of all is that it wasn’t even me the one that brought Beyoncé into the discussion that caused my ban. I guess Tink’s strong hate for Beyoncé got something to do with it as well. One can only guess…
Anyway, since there’s not a single soul in this board that doesn’t dislike me (including mods), this account will most likely get banned soon too. But, IF mods EVER reconsider my hopeless case, then I’d like to keep this account instead.
So, that’s all folks!
