This forum has some weird standards at times: "we're" allowed to say that we'd like to "smash the back doors in" on a young female "star", that seems fine, but any criticism of Chappers is outraged.

Surely there must be more to it than that to warrant making him the perennial butt of abuse here ?
Don't tell me a bunch of musicians are hating on someone for being.... <dramatic chords>..... DIFFERENT !!!!!!!!! ARRGGGHHHHH!!!!
Chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them
Donald Trump needs kicking out of a helicopter
I'm personally responsible for all global warming
And then the other half of the people want to show how much they don't care by repeatedly finding threads about him in which to say they don't care about him either way.
It's evident in lots of other places too - TV talent shows always required one 'love-to-hate-them' judge, (though these days it seems all judges need to fit that description). As a result, audiences are both compelled to watch, and simultaneously want to express loathing/dislike/hatred/etc. Hence the popularity of these threads on here.
Any derogatory comments about a female like you quote are bound straight for BCD - always been the case and always will be. That’s off topic stuff. There’s always a slightly different moderating standard for off topic and BCD - that’s the nature of any forum. If that comment was made in this sub forum (Guitar) it would get edited/moved etc and the poster PM’d
We are talking about on topic discussions regarding all artists. Not just chappers. It’s a clear rule as well. Criticism is fine. Be as critical of his output and material as you like. What we don’t tolerate are personal insults and rudeness instead of thought out criticism in an on topic area.
I think he is an OUTSTANDING advocate for guitarists/musicians, doesn’t take himself too seriously, doesn’t think he’s God, just a fella with a positive outlook on life. It doesn’t surprise me he is supremely successful.
Haters gonna hate. Doubt Chappers will be bothered, he’d just want to give you a cuddle
(now if only he’d stop crooning )
Fair enough, and for what it's worth I have nothing against him and have enjoyed his vids in the past, but if I were to criticise his output constructively, I'd say he's become a bit of a caricature of himself recently and I've grown to dislike his playing, probably through over-familiarity. But seems a nice enough guy. But this thread isn't as controversial as some are saying, someone said he looks a bit smug in the thumbnail, some said he has lazy dad jokes, lot's of people supporting him, so pretty balanced.
