How to Recognise Paramore.net Fans

  • How to Recognise Paramore.net Fans

    I was just wondering if any of you guys think it'd be a cool idea to agree on something that people from this site could wear/do at Paramore concerts so people from Paramore.net can recognise each other.

    For instance another online Paramore community made bright green ribbon bracelets to wear to Paramore's last tour so that if anyone was wearing one you could go up and talk to them - I thought it was a nice way for Paramore fans from the same community to meet up in real life.

    So say if we all agreed to wear a bracelet of some sort with our Paramore.net usernames written on them, if you spotted someone in the crowd at a Paramore gig who was wearing one you would be able to tell they were from Paramore.net, and if you wanted you could even get chatting with them :)

    I just thought it was an interesting idea, but would anyone else be willing to do this?

    EDIT:

    Okay, I thought I'd just add something said by @violet cullen on another discussion similar to this one: "We can all do whatever the hell we want, get creative with it and whatnot but we just need to make sure we have our user name somewhere.
    We can have it on a bracelet, on a shirt on a sticker, whatever. The form of identification doesnt matter, just as long as we identify ourselves in general."

    I think this a good idea - it would take too much fuss to decide on a specific message or specific item to wear, so I think Paramore.net people should just roll with it and do whatever you like, just be sure that you have the words "paramore.net" and/or your username somewhere. :)

    Of course the problem with this is, though paramore.net just hit 100k members I'd guesstimate that less than 50 have or will see this. We need to spread the word so that more of us will know to do this, but how? Spamming is generally annoying and it wouldn't be much different to reminding people to vote for Paramore. :/

I dont think writing on your arms is a good idea.I'd just wear a T-shirt with my username and paramore.net like paramoreheadbanger

crushcrushcrush_13's picture

im gonna write crushcrushcrush up my arm and paramore.net on the other one.

ill see you at the gig paramoreheadbanger!

paramoreheadbanger's picture

I'm making my own tshirt with my username on it and then paramore.net written on it. I can't wait to talk to any guys whose going to the O2 on November 13th! :D:D

Awesome idea! i think it would be fun to wear them to more places than a concert..idk.... i just think it would be fun to meet another person from Paramore.net at like.... idk wal-mart i guess.. o_o

how about duct ape and get a silver marker or something and write 'i'm on paramore.net' on the tape and stick it to our heads or arms or something. if we write the same thing that no one else would write unless they were on this site, we know it is definitely someone from this site.

haha I'm loving the glo in the dark/fluro ideas. Its probs getting a bit late because the tour's already started. I'm not going till October though. What about the glo sticks that you can buy as bracelets? That would look awesome, though probs not very identifiable as a paramore.net thing. :)

LydiaConspires's picture

@violet cullen duct tape is cool, especially glow in the dark! :D I hope some people do that, so you can go talk to them. I don't get to see them til November, but me and my sister were thinking of neon glow in the dark paint. Y'know like in that Black Eyed Peas video? It'd look pretty awesome and you would stand out in the crowd with your hands in the air glowing.

@Pitt
Yes, you have become a duct tape minion! mwahaha

You may have this arts&crafts store near you. Thats a direct link to the duct tape but it doesnt say its glo in the dark like it said on mine. I dunno.

@violet
So true. Wish I had glow in the dark duct tape :( haha Do you happen to know where you got it though, may have to get some :)?

violet cullen's picture

@Pitt
It is awesome :D
Those name tags are cool.
It just dont glo in the dark like my duct tape.
Duct tape is cooler.

Pitt Monkey's picture

@violet and Display name
Haha, duct tape. I think that we should just get the "Hi my name is..." stickers, then stick them on our foreheads!! Imagine the looks we'd get!!

violet cullen's picture

@Display Name (very creative, lmao)
We could have duct tape on our fore heads!
Duct tape rulesszzz.....

Displayed Name's picture

Solution;
a big sticker on our heads! saying; I'm a Paramore fan, and proud of it.

pretty noticeable :x

YelyahSandy's picture

Yeah, you could do the username thing!

violet cullen's picture

Ok, I'm going to the CT concert today. Anyone else, I remind you, do something with your user name on it! I'd love to meet some people! (Though I will have parentals following me around T_T)
I'll be wearing my PFC shirt and I have glo-in-the-dark florescent pieces of duct tape on me that say Violet Cullen.
Since duct tape is a mostly house held object, and if not mega cheap, I think it's a good solution for this issue.
I hope to see some of y'all doing this! And dont forget about it!

WeaknessIsOurStregnth's picture

yeah, @bethwasbornforthis, that would be good too.

we have to spread the word.

xx♥I Luv Yuh♥xx's picture

that an awesome idea!!!! I remember at the last concert I went to, someone from here saw me, but I didn't see them so I had no idea. what color should the ribbon/bracelet be?

hammy_2's picture

I like it'd be good

fan_ of _paramore's picture

I'm really excited about this.It'll only work if everyone does it. I hope everyone remembers and it works out.

@bethwasbornforthis: What if it just said Paramore? And everyone had the same colour? A really bright colour that stands out.

bethwasbornforthis's picture

@iwearthebiggestsmile. I agree, it would probably be best if we just wore a certain colour bracelet/ribbon, or maybe write on it 'I'm on paramore.net ;)'. Or something :)

Hiddenstar's picture

i like this idea, except my parents wont let me go to one of thier concrts :(

WeaknessIsOurStregnth's picture

maybe if we all wrote the same thing on a bracelet instead of our username?

coz say if you never heard of me, for example, and you saw a girl walking around the O2, how would you know i was a paramore.net member and not just a devoted fan (who randomly wrote IWearTheBiggestSmile on a bracelet)? especially if the member had a user name that has nothing to do with paramore.
and as much as people go on here, no one would be able to identify every user name.

so wouldnt a word or phrase that is so random and cool that no one else would think of (paramore related though) be a better idea? then we could just introduce ourselves to who we want to, and you'd be almost 100% sure that it is a paramore.net member and not a random person wearing a bracelet with writing on it.

@fan of paramore
Lets hope they dont mind. But its not like they HAVE to do anything. And I know plenty of guys who wear braclets, I think they'll be okay with it.

paramorelovelovelove's picture

i would do it, but paramore never comes to places by me. but it is an amazing idea. i like it :)

fan_ of _paramore's picture

I think it's a great idea. But yeah it would only work if everyone remembered. I love the idea of the fluro ribbon bracelet, i don't even think you need your username on it, you could just talk to them anyway and ask them if you wanted to know who they were.

@Violet Cullen: Wearing the PFC shirts is a good idea too. I think both shirts and a bracelet. haha as long as the guys don't mind wearing fluro bracelets. :)

violet cullen's picture

We should come in our PFC shirts and have somewhere on us thats visable, our username. I very much like the braclet idea but if someone wants to have their username on like a necklace or something, they can do that instead.

tragically_hip's picture

Heres what you could do. Walk around with your finger and thumb in the shape of an L on your foreheads.

1_JazzRay's picture

That would be cool. We should also do something like that for people in the Paramore Fan club that go to the same school. Because I've seen three other people at my school with their PFC shirts on and I always feel like talking to them. Everybody on here should make a bracelet or something with a secret word that only we know.

RAWR I AM TORI's picture

I WANNA DO EET!! but lets do a t-shirt and like design it our selves but have our username in like plain sight to tho... good idea?

LydiaConspires's picture

Yeah the problem is, there's usually only a couple of people who actually remember to do it so it never really works :/ but if loads of us agreed then it might work out and be fun :)

@Eoin constant vigilance is good, but I'd hope that Paramore fans aren't rapists D;
