Hello! I'm going to need to ask a favor of you guys, and that is to be brave. No matter where you rank what fandoms, I won't care, and I expect brutal honesty from everyone of what their opinion is. Obviously don't say anything that will get you reported or something like that, but don't be afraid to be honest. I won't care if you rank any fandoms low or high, whether or not I'm in them.
Don't just go based off of the users here. Include EVERYONE from Twitter to YouTube to Reddit to Facebook to Instagram and here and so on. Also, this will require you generalizing fandoms to some degree, I am aware of that. I personally am not a huge fan of generalizations, but here is the thing: no fandom is perfect. Some fandoms are mostly positive with very little toxicity, other are very toxic and very few levelheaded people. It all depends.
Also, don't take things here out on the group. No one can control their fandom. Even telling their fans to behave, while very kind and noble, ultimately does little to nothing in reality, at least in most cases. Another thing I should mention is that everyone may have slightly different definitions and perceptions of toxicity. In addition, different people may see different sides of different fandoms from each other. It happens. Try to be as objective as you think you can, while still being honest. You can rank any fandom, even ones you aren't a part of, as long as you feel you have observed them long enough to do so accurately. One more distinction to make is we're ranking fandoms, not the groups, so please keep them separate in your head and in your ranking.
Here are some factors you can consider when ranking the fandoms:
* Has the fandom ever sent threats to other fans/idols?
* Do the fans hold the idols accountable when they mess up?
* Does the fandom pit fans against each other or shame other fans of the same group?
* Does the fandom often start and/or participate in fanwars?
* Does the non-toxic side of the fandom call out the toxic side of the fandom, or do they just ignore them?
* Do the fans take the idols seriously when they make a reasonable request (like not to be hurt at airports)?
* Do you think the idols themselves are secretly embarrassed with the fandom?
* Do you think they have so many solo stans and akgaes to the point where it is an actual problem?
Lastly, you can rank as many or as few fandoms as you want and give as much or as little explanation as you'd like to. Here is my very small ranking to those who are curious:
The inspiration for this thread came from this video that I saw on YouTube and found it interesting to watch (I disagreed with them on a few rankings though). The premise was interesting to me and even though I would have ranked some of them differently, it was fun to watch (for me):
I look forward to seeing which fandoms you rank where (and why as well if you'd like to discuss that). Be respectful and mature. If I catch you fighting with other users, I'll need to report people, and I really don't want to do that. Have a great day/night!
