[enter-talk] BUT IN REALITY, THE FANWAR BETWEEN EXO-LS AND ARMYS

Is over? Both of the fandoms don't really care about each other nowadays. Instead, they are trying to purify themselves from the trolls and sometimes, I even see praise posts about each other.


Only the trolls would pit the fandoms against each other. The two fandoms have now went on their separate ways and when something bad happens, they help each other.

Seriously, they now have their own separate enemies

post response:
[+1,079][-30]
original post: here

1. [+707, -3] First of all, Armys' real enemy now is their hair/makeup/coordi

 

2. [+611, -5] I'm an Army but now, I seriously find K-hip hop (?) so annoyingㅋㅋㅋ they will make a fuss among themselves, upload videos on YT and bash others among themselves... But if you listened to what they say, they don't have any logic. Turns out they are just saying this and that about rap skills, verse, diction, etc

 

3. [+408, -4] The way you said that they had their own separate enemies touched my heart

 

4. [+296, -13] To be honest, it was better when we used to be on each other's throat with EXO;; Our results were similar so I could feel the competition but nowadays, when I see other fandoms coming for us, I wonder why would they even pick on us in the first place? It's not like we are in a competition with them. It's just a pain in the ass and we have to purify the search terms for our brats

I chose "neutral" for all questions until I realized it means nothing lol. I guess I'm somewhat disagree if their mess are/were caused by trolls/antis. Even until now, subtle shades still thrown here and there.

From what I see as inactive outsider, twt daily mess aside, bts fans vs gg/nct stans, and exo fans vs each other (insider wars). 

But does it mean something if many/most nct fans were exo fans before :ninja:

i agree that things have slightly calmed down between the two. i feel like armys now always fight with either blinks or nctzens lol. exo-ls are pretty chill nowadays

it's slowly starting to get better with blinks. slowly.

nctzens hmmm... majority of armys wouldn't list them specifically... more like we just lump them together with the rest of the young fandoms being loud sometimes lol. however perhaps it feels bigger from nctzens perspective tho.

Definitely, things have gotten better. In the past, both fandoms were basically trying to prove that their respective group was better. 

But now, Exo hardly promotes as a group and the members are off doing their own thing - so what is there really to fight about?

Yea there's nothing left to prove. Both groups are legends.

Now it's Army's vs the world. Tell me I'm wrong. 

It's always been like this TBH.

Not to fire anyone up but there is no reason for the fandoms to fight anymore because the war has been won, decisively. I only picked somewhat agree because I know there are ARMYs like myself out here with a long memory and can't forget some things so easily.

I have never had anything against EXO personally. In fact, I have always a huge fan of D.O vocally and I'm looking forward to his(hopefully R&B) solo album. I have always spoken highly of him on this forum.

Their fandom was definitely a different story.

maybe it's my victim complex? but having been trolled & looked down for so long, I rarely find that ARMY are the ones instigating fanwars 👀👀👀👀 In the 2015-2018~ era, EXO-L really had it out for BTS probably because they were feeling threatened with BTS rising, they were really vicious against BTS, so ARMYs on the most part were playing defense.. but can you really blame them?

With BLINKs & NCTzens.. idek where to start... I guess it's just that seeing the success of BTS in the west & evidently how many doors they pushed opened for other kpop acts, but other groups don't seem to even acknowledge and even try to downplay... naturally, even with success, ARMYs are left to play defense again...

Again, maybe it's the ARMY community that I'm in, but most have focused on celebrating BTS' success without overtly putting down other groups, & having that focus is a huge part as to how ARMY was able to get BTS to where they are today. I can see how the constant celebration of achievements can seem boastful and annoying, but having been the underdog for so long, you just want to embrace it while you can.

The animosity with EXO-Ls really died off, bc let's be honest, EXO hasnt exactly been giving EXO-Ls much ammunition as a group to put up a fair fight with ARMYs. I'm glad, because they were one fandom that really had the ability to be just as loud as ARMY & maybe catch the attention of BTS.

That being said, I personally LOVE the globalization of kpop & fanwars really keep things active/interesting online 😛 except for when they go too far

my friend is both nctzen and exol and from what i've heard there's a LOT of fights between solo stans/shippers (armys deal with that too tho) and i think between exol and nctzen too? like exo being sidelined for nct or something.

armys fight with everybody and everybody want to fight armys. it's the cost of being the biggest fandom, you have people that couldn't shut up for every little things and took tweets with 5 likes seriously.
