General wondering...

Post by withchappedlips »

Why does this forum continuously pump out new members from like random places in the world? I mean, it's quite awesome, but in my forum experience I've noticed a lot of members from the USA, Canada, and the UK... but after that, there's very few from other places... but on this place we have people from all over the map. It's insane. I'm just wondering what is it that is pulling all of these people from other countries to this website? Is Sum 41 just that much bigger in these places? Is it a hosting thing... like, does it have something to do with where this site was purchased or something? I don't know. I'm wondering, what is your take on all of this? What do you guys think? Why do we have like 2 active members from the USA / Canada... and like a million from everywhere else?
And I know I said I needed space,

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.

So when I say I'm scared to be alone, you know I mean it,

I'm just not ready to leave my room.

Go to PD and find 10 active members that aren't from the USA, Canada, or the UK... and members from TNS don't count.

luqman and accidentprone off the top of my head, I'm sure there are more they just don't come on much because they'd probably be harassed beyond belief. Also yes, Sum 41 are big in countries outside the us, uk and canada.

The other question on my mind is something like why Sum 41 is so much bigger in those places than the US... like, I mean, they're huge here... but yet this forum struggles to get new active members from the US. At least this place actually gets girls... even though they all fail beyond belief. Something PD isn't able to say so much.

In the Netherlands (^next to belgium) a lot of people know sum41, but don't listen to it. Wich I hate. Im known as the Sum41guy and thats cool!

Most of the people I tell about sum41 are like 'yeah I listened to them when I was 14' and they only know Fatlip and In too deep.

Sum 41 is never mentioned on tv or radio over here :balling:
Or it has to be a some really old shit from Paris Hilton and they say '...sum41 rocker boyfriend Deryck'

But Im really happy there are ppl from a lot of different countries here! All around the world they should spread the word of Sum 41

To be quite honest, Sum 41 aren't really that big in UK.
I've rarely heard them play on the radio unless I've got Kerrang on

Sum 41 aren't big AT ALL in the UAE. In fact you'd be lucky if someone at least knows them somewhat.
You rarely find HHOP in stores, UH is sold out now, and now all you see is AKNF and Chuck. DTLI? isn't sold anymore apparently.
And I was VERY lucky when I found Intro to Destr. and SB&HE, 2 in 1.
Only once, With Me was played on the radio, which is the most over-rated song EVER in my opinion.

I always heard of them but never listened to them, then last year I started listening to them and I liked them.

Then I just went on Google and typed Sum 41 because I was that bored, and I saw a lot of links by TNS, so then I knew TNS for a while, but curiosity about the Forum never captured me.. until 24th August '08 x]

I'm the Sums girl in my school too. :D Even the teachers know that.

Word.

Sum 41 is one of the most adored Punk Rock bands here in Algeria, everyone i know who listens to Rock music likes DTLI, and the people who don't know shit about anything related to Rock music, they like Over My Head when they listen to it.
As for TNS being so famous worldwide, i can think of two reasons:

1- It has Charley on board.
2- It is very well promoted in Youtube and other sites that kids go to on a daily basis.
