Negativity goes too far

Yeah, good point. In fact, some people who seek fame/stardom/success are doing so to fill a void in their lives, so they are especially thin-skinned and emotionally vulnerable.

It's a bit entitled though to actively seek attention and to expect nothing but praise and adulation. As the saying goes "If you're not ready to be hated, you aren't ready to be famous"

You just made that up?

I'd be very happy to own that motto but I put it in quotes because I have seen it said elsewhere. How many times it needs to be said before it officially becomes "a saying" I've no idea, perhaps I should have prefaced it with "As somebody else has said...." but that isn't the point.

Whilst I'm sure that everybody you come into contact with Banjo thinks you're great and wonderful, I expect most people will find they can't be liked by everyone. Increase the amount of people you interact with by 100s or 1000s, the greater the chance that somebody is going to say something unpleasant or point out a truth about yourself that you don't like.

Seems like Lukewarm wasn’t happy with the social media interaction from Rawlinson or JoB.
Interviews circulating this pm with him saying it won’t happen again and he’ll tell the players to not react on social media. That fans are entitled to their views, good or bad.

It's very naive I agree, but I think a lot of emotionally vulnerable youngsters believe that fame and fortune will make their problems go away and are drawn to it like moths to lightbulbs.
