Now, it’s time to start talking money, and when you talk money, things get really ugly. There was a Black Flag fan site with about 800,000 likes on Facebook and there was the Black Flag official Facebook site that had about 100,000 likes and they were losing people left and right because they weren’t allowing anyone to comment unless the comments were pro-Black Flag.
