    I honestly didn't see all of your interactions throughout the middle of the night (though I've read all of them currently up), I understand what you're saying. When we made the trade I had completely forgotten that Cook was playing tonight, so until the post saying it was going to get pushed through early I hadn't even really thought about it.

    I guess at this point, there really is not much really left to be said. I don't really feel like you're even 'frustrated' by what's happening with the rules, so much as you're frustrated by the response you believe you're getting when you question how the rules are applied.

    FWIW, I don't have any problem amending the veto rule, case by case, if it's clear the intent was to start the acquired player on short notice (whatever the reason may be). The amendment would need to be applied to all owners in a similar situation at all times, however. I believe this - if I had made a trade on a Wednesday and asked Bones if I could shorten the veto window so I could play the dude on Thursday, he'd say ok. Or at least he'd ask the league if it was ok. He made his intentions clear with the Cook trade and it was pretty obvious to me why he was doing it.

    I don't have a problem with it. This isn't high stakes poker. I seriously believe everyone is on the up and up and if they're not then they need to get a new life.

    You don't have traffic court in Oregon...?

    And did you seriously just use that analogy? This isn't the NBA bro. In the NBA, there is no veto p ower so if you really wanna go that route..

    So many words...

    I also didn't delete a post about you at all bro. Quit making shit up! Do you see how that is annoying as hell? What did I say in this "post"?

    Im on a lot of meds right now so bare that in mind.
    Didnt Stern veto the CP3 trade. Though I guess he did that as the owner rep for the hornets and not as the Commish right?

    @hoopsjock Are you talking about the post where I said "You're acting like a guy whos never sped before, your acting like a guy who always looks for a crosswalk"? I didn't delete that, a Mod must have. Get your stuff straight before trying to call me out for something I didn't do.

    That's also not a personal attack, you misconstrued that as well. The fact that a Mod agreed is silly. I'm using a metaphor for your actions (posts). That's why I said "acting". FFS.

    Also, I think the Veto rule should stay in play but shortened to 24 hours.

    Next year it's gone. If people could vote in a timely manner it'd be fine.

    You've called me annoying, you've said I'm ruining the league, you've said my opinion doesn't mean anything because it's your league, and you've held my spot on the 3-on-3 team over my head like some punishment because I don't like a rule in a fantasy football league. I didn't report any of your posts and they were deleted before I said they were so obviously someone else felt they were worse than you think they were.

    And look here you are still coming at me instead of the issue at hand. I've wasted enough time on this conversation and you today. If you can't see how you're being an absolute jerk to me just because I don't like the bending of a rule then just fucking drop it. I'm entitled to my opinion and fuck off for asking for objections and then chastising me for making one.

    There has been a very civil conversation about whether or not there should be exceptions to set rules and how people feel about making exceptions today but it looks like you care more about making me look bad then to contribute to the conversation. You'd think since you don't like the rules of the basketball league that you'd at least consider other people's thoughts when enforcing the rules in your league but I guess not. Instead you are just going to abolish the rule altogether which I don't think anyone else wants to do.

    I love how you don't have a strong enough position right now so you have to resort to the past times you annoyed me..

    I said you're ruining the league for me. Which is kinda true. Sorry if you don't wanna here it.

    I used the 3-on-3 thing simply to try to get you to stop ranting because when you get going, you don't stop.

    Did you see the word acting? Then it was an attack on character, it was an attack on your actions (posts). You know that wasn't a personal attack but you won't admit you're wrong. Oh well, I don't need you to.

    Seems to me like the discussion is that my discretion is fine, because people know I wouldnt try to screw them over. I don't consider others thoughts? Claims like that is why you're being so goddamn annoying.. how have I ran this league for 3 years and not had an issue over trades then? You havent been here long enough to claim anything definitive about how I run this shit bro. Had more issues with you than with anything else in those 3 years. Somehow, you'll attribute that to me.

    I asked for objections over the fairness of the trade, not for you to create an issue over this again after I've said all season I have discretion, and I wouldn't abuse it because I never have.

    I don't care about making you look bad.. for anyone who can see through your crap, you do it to yourself.

    Ive never reported anyone on a website ever, and probably wont. I think the last 3-4 posts are way more “person” than “post”.

    Why dont we just start with tagging the participators in the league about these rules and having a “poll” question of what they want the rules to be going forward. Going at each other wont make this situation better or make everyones enjoyment go up.

    Heres a couple ideas to start with; see if @PtldPlatypus will arbitrate trades for us.
    Make a firm 24 hour veto rule.
    Just push all trades through no vetos.
    Ultimately I understand that its not “my” league so I cant tell you guys what to do.
    Just my thought at this point is to move on cause this isnt constructive and I doubt this is very fun either...

    I've done this a lot in the past, in a neat form that I messaged to people, but apparently I DON'T CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK....

    ... Someone would probably want the screenshots of all of them to make sure I wasnt altering vote counts to my own preferences. SMH.
