    Yes, if only we could ignore people who know what they're talking about, then you could make baseless and utterly false accusations about other posters without having to read that you're wrong.

    I'm sorry to spoil the internet for you.

    Yeah, why waste time arguing with your omnipotent, mightier than thou ways. Say what you want from your perch, you're effectively on ignore.

    The perch of knowledge? Are you claiming that I do not know, for a FACT, that your assertion that he's MIXUM is incorrect?

    Serious question: how could you know? Running multiple e-mail accounts isn't all that tough.

    Just curious, how many personas is ODENISGOD allowed?

    BTW, Mullets are fucking hilarious :rolleyes:

    Is this 2001?

    Were the clap traps "Blazer_Midget_Man" "Blazer_mime_Man" taken?

    All you have to do is read a couple of his posts - they are all the same, and the same tired drivel.

    IP addresses can be traced to general locations. Who's to say that BMM, OIG, and Mixum don't post from locations hundreds of miles apart?

    Wasn't aware insuring Roy's happiness and even stroking his ego, if need be, was an "imaginary trade". Hedo should have been a done deal and had our GM played it right, he would be.

    I've been a Blazer fan since the 70's. Ed O and I have been friends since the 70's. I'm not Mixum, although he sounds like someone I would enjoy.

    I'm the first to tip my hat to KP for bringing in Roy, LA and others that changed the Jailblazers image. The honeymoon is over and in the past six months, what I've seen haven't sat well. I'm loyal to the Blazers - NOT KP.

    Let's be honest though. You're really only here to raise a boring ruckus. Which to be fair has worked a bit. Still, far from original and you could have just said "FIRE KP!!!!!" in one of any other of the thousands of threads here filled with idiots saying the same thing.

    Here's something you guys might not be familiar with...

    If, and it's a big if, Miller turns out to be worth the cause (I still think we need a banging, strong, rebounding F) I will be the first person to come here and say I was wrong and KP and other fans were right.

    If someone were to prove to you I am not this person, I dount you would afford anyone the same courtesy - and the end result would only be more personal assaults. I appreciate your zeal and obsession for this Mixum persona, but you may want to consider a bit of lightening up on the obsession.

    That's OK, I suspect I was a Blazer fan before most of you were even conceived, and was playing basketball on a college court while most of you were in diapers.

    BTW - Mullets rock! Please, ignore me - it will make for a much more productive board. Thanks.

    I've known Blazers_Mullet or whatever his stupid name is for, as he says, about three decades. I recently introduced him to this site.

    Is it POSSIBLE that he was posting for several years as MIXUM, never once mentioning anything to me in spite of my near-constant presence in the community? Sure.

    Given that, is it POSSIBLE he created other accounts to communicate with MIXUM on his own? I guess so.

    Then is it POSSIBLE that he acted ignorant about the board's existence and created a new account that he let me know is him? Uh, yeah.

    But why would I think that a guy I've known for 30 years--a good guy, a family man, someone who I know has loved the Blazers forever--be doing this, when the simple answer is that there is more than one poster?

    This goes to the basic reason that I have defended MIXUM for so long: people think they know, but they often don't. It's easy to jump to conclusions and those conclusions simply are often incorrect, especially when we're all working from limited information like someone's posting style. We know nothing about most people here, including their level of technical aptitude, their level of education, and their overall ability to communicate.

    Some people are assholes in real life. Some people are grumpy online. Some people can barely type because they're almost blind and have arthritis.

    Judging the POSTER is a bad idea when there is so much to criticize about any given post.

    Can we at least wait for ONE season where we have a poorer record than the previous season before we declare the honeymoon is over? The honeymoon is just barely starting.

    Most of the moves KP has made, in hindsight, have been good. 80%? 90%? I think that earns him the benefit of the doubt for the time being.
