    I've not been on facebook. Where does the negativity come from on there? Is it about merchandise, touring schedules, setlists , Ed's voice?

    yes...and so much more.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    The best way to get rid of negativity on those Facebook groups it to block or delete those users. Your experience is sooooo much better if you do this. Let me tell you. :)

    But also add it would be great if the moderators of these Pearl Jam Facebook groups were able to block & delete those users themselves.

    They should be able to remove them from the group. I agree about editing/blocking. It makes using Facebook enjoyable when you can control the flow/feed. Its evolved nicely since the very early days of FB.

    Yeah, until group administrators start wielding their power with a heavy hand. I see a lot of admins on these FB pages just banning people because of differences of opinion.

    It's when the differences in opinion get out of control and people start attacking each other over it. There's a right way, and a wrong way to debate...pick the wrong way, and get your ass banned. Easy.

    I read the thread title and I thought, "Do people really hate Backspacer so much that they'd start their own group?"

    Heard a good story on the news yesterday. Facebook use for teenagers dropped 6%.

    Teenagers are pissed off that their 30-45 year old parents are now using Facebook.
    So the kids are walking away.

    Take me piece by piece.....

    its just the cycle of the internet. Whatever facebook group there is, the same thing will happen. Only way to prevent it is to have it super exclusive and private... and who wants that?

    I find it sad -the thought of a group of adults, who have the love of this band in common, cannot appreciate and respect others thoughts and opinions enough to get along on this bands fan group. What is wrong with people, and why do people take others thoughts so personal? They have the right to think what ever they please, just like the very people criticizing them do.

    I agree with the drop in Facebook users. The whole purpose of Facebook is self promotion, ego driven fools trying to one up one another while hiding behind their computer screens... No surprise to me at all that the fan groups all end up the same. That's the difference between a forum (place to converse) and Facebook (place to show your dick is bigger)

    Facebook is terrible. Don't be a promoter of that trash.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.
