4. They think their bias has it the worst in the world/victimizes their bias
5. They think troll bait posts are written by other member akgaes
6. They don't think of themselves as akgaes

9. [+21, -2] I once liked a specific member instead of her entire girl group but why would you ever want to fight over that??? Do you really have nothing else to do with your time???

10. [+20, -2] I understand liking a specific member instead of the entire group but why stir trouble by picking fights? Do they really think that that's what's best for their favorite member?

11. [+19, -3] I remember it was really bad with the TVXQ fandom. I wonder if Park Yoochun fans and Kim Junsu fans are still on bad terms.

12. [+17, -2] It got worse with EXO... before EXO came around, most fandoms were fans of the entire group
