I’ve been toying with the idea of making an off topic thread about this but I wasn’t sure how it would be received
we see an influencer get mentioned on here one or twelve times
all from the same “new member“ account who seems to be going onto random threads with the same “have you seen xxxxx instagram“
that spreads like wildfire and innocent people get involved and start promoting them as well, not realising how it started.
we find these influencers then have a passion to get involved in.... the most popular threads on here, and talk about them on their instagram account
to get mentions here
the Inghams, the Meldrums, PTWM, Hinch, the SJ’s and
it might be coincidental but it’s a bit too coincidental
they gain nothing from their posts on instagram, except for their mentions on here, especially if they “aren’t influencers” !??! Why would their followers care
This won’t be popular and I’m prepared to be wrong but what other reason would they have to be posting about this
obviously I don want to derail the bastards on the Meldrum thread but it’s an interesting conversation to have.
do influencers jump on a bandwagon in order to raise their own profile on here.
like influencers troll themselves to gai popularity do they also become the “hero” for the same reason
it might be a conversation for an off topic thread
