No, no, no, no, no, just nooooooooo!! First GIGAMOUS and now (and unexpectedly ) TBS. My heart, my poor, poor heart. <///3 I don't think I can do this vkei thing for much longer.

I wonder how recent this decision is? 

amazing, incredible, genre-reforming, ground-breaking, innovative, brilliant, trailblazing, exceptional, initial'L-overshadowing, marvelous, tremendous, smashinG tbh!!!!

A lot of people tearing them to shreds on FB. I'm actually kind of surprised that there are so many ragging on them outside of this board's sphere of influence, because this is place is kind of an echo chamber. It's very telling about the amount of frustration that's there though + that there are people still waiting for refunds on their merry tickets is just embarrassing & ought 2 b grounds for a suit. 
 
like watching a car wreck with different reasons for the cancellation coming from multiple angles and one of the band members "huh what it's cancelled?" 
 

Unless it's illness or something, it really shows B7Klan's ineptitude that they can't gauge the interest and take precautions time after time if it was the ticket sales like it was with Merry. Among other big factors it's this sort of mismanagement and waste of contacts that killed it here in the west. I'm sure there were some people who had already booked their travel and shit too since we're so close to the dates of the shows. Fuck off b7

That's the interpretation I roll with too. But if one is to deny the official story as it stands right now because RIO is an unreliable source, then more information is required. I'm suggesting constructive avenues of discussion which I think are relevant and on topic in lieu of baseless accusations.

To me, where there is smoke there is fire. Band members having intimate pictures leaked by their fans is nothing new (see Danchou from NoGoD) and it hasn't ruined a career before - but it's interesting to me that RIO felt so pressured that he had to get the police involved. And that's before the whole pedophilia angle came into it. That indicates that the contents of these messages/photos may have some gravity to them and are key to understanding this situation. Their existence is also complicating, since if one or more parties are naked in it he could be convicted of a crime. Discussing these elements of the case until we get more facts is a more fruitful use of our internet time than blindly branding one or more parties as a slut or rapist, which topics like these are always in danger of turning into. Whatever information I wish to know is going to come out in an inevitable court case, so my feathers aren't too ruffled about invading his privacy.

NONONONONONONONO NOT CHANTY THEY DONT DESERVE THIS
 
apparently shia's an airhead so i guess he had it coming hurrrdurrrr

Until he is caught lying you have to give him the benefit of the doubt. If he is caught lying, either the police or the girl in question will dispute his version of the events with undeniable facts very shortly. I still see no proof that he intended any harm to this girl with his penis, and instead thought he could leverage his position as a band member to get easy pussy. It's creepy as fuck, shady, and very suspect, and it probably happens a lot more than we care to admit, but it doesn't automatically make him guilty. It just makes him stupid, horny, and desperate. And none of what he did absolved the girl of any blame either - I just have even less details on her so I can't say anything yet. None of us can, so there's no point getting emotionally invested in this.
 
The real detail I want to know is what they were questioning RIO about for him to willingly divulge information about this girl and that this kind of slip up could even occur. There is a lot more to this story than the media is willing to let on. 

Rio has updated his blog with an apology + details on what happened

Apparently Rio went to the police because the girl had been circulating their photos online when he wanted to part ways with her, upon which they found out that she was actually underage. Previously the girl had shown Rio an ID which indicated that she wasn't below 18, but it surfaced during the investigations that she had been passing off another person's ID as her own.
 
Because of this incident Rio will abstain from band activities until further notice.

Yes, it is about being desperate and/or just plain stupid. There's no excuse. In 2017, you cannot use "few people are able to ignore animal instinct" as an argument. I don't know where you live,  but here there's a name for people who can't control their ding-dongs, and it's not a pretty one
 
He's probably just stupid, tho. Looks like the classic case of someone thinking it won't happen to him, until it does

Except he did just walk up in there to talk about another issue and ended up confessing (whether unknowingly or not).
