I'm bumping this thread (is this even old enough to be bumped?!) to ask how everyone feels about fan twitter accounts? A lot of them have the same pic as Coldplay does or try to be a letter or two away (@coldplaay ??), and most just regurgitate each others' updates, so I've personally never been a fan. There are so many! I can understand the need for regional/country-based Coldplay fan accounts... but the rest? I guess they make me miss Coldplaying even more, and I'm so glad this board exists so we can discuss everything in one place My biggest peeve is when no one gets credited for their pics or their artwork, or a fan's photo makes it halfway around the world without their permission.

I hardly use twitter any more fof mainly that reason. I retweet the band, but only when there's big news, and I Always give photo Credit.

I really hate those @coldplaay or @coldploy accounts with the same profile pic as coldplay... I have a mini heart attack every time I see them in my interactions!

Yeah, it's really annoying. It's confusing every time. Sometimes it even looks like the band tweeted something, but if you look carefully you see a letter difference or so....
I don't get what is funny about it...

Agreed, amazingly annoying. It's not cute at all.

Oh god, it's the most annoying thing!!! Those accounts are only there to confuse people! I can't count how many times I thought it was Coldplay who tweeted big news or something and then saw that it WASN'T them. That means countless heart attacks. I know it may sound a bit too strict, but I would ban them from Twitter, because it's like those who pretend to be certain celebrities and change one letter of their name.
We have enough accounts that give us the Coldplay news we need, so we don't need wannabe Coldplay accounts IMO.
And also, I totally agree with wabbit concerning the credits of the pictures/artwork.

Who runs the @coldplayatlas twitter? They literally used a screenshot of oldmuckers' post about the U2 forum lol. I'm all for info sharing, but where's the credit?
