The problem with a bandwagon is that you only see the ones on the bandwagon. Many people who disagee with a thread may not post on it, so you mostly hear from the ones who do. It's like if you read the reviews of a product. People with a bad experience are more likely to post a review, so if you read the reviews, you think, "Wow, everyone hated this product!"", while in fact the thousands of people who liked it never bothered to leava a review.

Does this make any sense?
