11 is my favorite. We like you, so you won't get edited. it's ok, it's in the rules. I know there is no personal attacks, but that guy kinda deserves it because he doesn't do exactly what we say....even though what we say can be changed by the second. BTW, Problem Children is a personal attack. Just an FYI, and I will patiently wait for that to get edited or deleted
Papa openly admits to trolling. I think you pretty much nailed it on the head. I find myself posting less and less here, I wouldn't be surprised if riverman left, and I won't be surprised when more leave. The constant bitching about the mods and constant attacks get old for those of us who just want to have playful banter and/or talk Blazers ball. For the record, I would imagine sand in the vagina is a painful, irritating sensation (that could potentially lead to more serious issues). I wish that on no one.
As big a fan as I was of your posts back in the day, your posts now are full of nothing but bitching. I honestly have no clue why you continue to post here. You act like you're being held down, like you're being suppressed or oppressed. It's like, "Hey, I'm miserable. Misery loves company. Let's make everyone else miserable." Is something wrong? I'm asking because your posts were fun at one point. Let's get back to the playful banter. Or find something better to do with our time. Starting to think numero uno is unlikely, so the latter is the more likely route I'll take. Damn, I guess I'll have to start working full days.
But the best antidote to trolling isn't banning trolls; it's not taking the bait. In other words, trolling can't be defeated by mods, only by posters.
I actually agree with all of this. What happens is someone comes in to a conversation and unless everything they type is 100% positive they get attacked and called a troll because of previous trolls, causing those non troll huge Blazer fans to attack the over the top homer fans.
I don't recall saying banning trolls was the best antidote, did I? In fact, I never advocated banning Papa, and was as vocal as anyone else here saying we should bring him back. But the funny thing is that people troll, and then the people that respond end up with a suspension. I can understand why people get tired of this board. I'm starting to think this board is full of a bunch of cranky old men that are upset, bitter, or inferior in life and they troll others to get a rise and feel better about themselves.
When did I admit to trolling? Aren't you the one who posted that you post 'angry' just to get a rise out of people?
Your not trolling its just your posts are like LA's jumpers they seem like a good idea, look good going up but ultimately they miss their mark 60% of the time and the board is worse off for it.
I dont think I've ever had a run in with you as a mod MM, so dont think I'm singling you out or anything. But I dont view "Problem Children" as a personal attack. Just like I wouldnt view someone saying one is an "Angry Poster" or a "Lazy poster" just my opinion though.
No, not really. Especially since it wasn't meant as a dig. I was actually giving him props because he's admitted it before, and that he'll intentionally push buttons. It's mostly funny. Most of the people that come here to troll won't admit what they're doing (and some just have a personality where they're constantly trolling, so they cannot see and admit they're doing it).
That's not true. There are plenty of people who post things that could be perceived as "not 100% positive." Those people aren't slammed. Those people aren't banned or suspended or edited. Hell, I've posted plenty of things that could be construed as negative. You have intentionally toed the line to prove a point. You've been on your own crusade for about a year now, and it's proven nothing and it's helped nothing. When does it end?
