    I wouldn't say you were a spammer. sometimes a reply to a post only warrents one line. spam is if you put "lol" in every post.

    You can't have 35 paragraphed posts a day, that's the truth. There's no reason to. So in a way, you spam. But there's no of question what you give to this board.You shouldn't feel bad at all about this. Actually overall, I wouldn't even call you a spammer.

    Err... We all know my history with Melo, so I should be inclined to automatically side with BCB.Then again, I've also called BCB a spammer in the past.And, most importantly, I've only been back for half a week.From what I recall, many of your posts were one liners. However, what I have came to realize after dwelling at several other message boards is that that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The bottom line is that BBW is a message board, one that has lost members but somehow kept a majority of its core over a near two year run.If BCB wants to reply to a topic with one line, he's inclined to. The fact of the matter is, one liners don't degrade intelligence nor amplify it; they state an opinion, we are all entitled to our opinions, and if we feel a certain way that is our state of mind and we have all the right in the world to stick by them.While the topics here are often overwhelmingly debated, there is, in all honestly, a certain overzealousness about many posts and a complete lack of understanding. Many posts that delve into arguments can span paragraphs and paragraphs, all while being hard to understand, hard to agree with, and... OK, I'm not going to hold back. Many long posts will probably end up being sh*tty, useless, and wrongly-driven.So if toleration of badly written and badly presented argument runs freely, why can't BCB let his opinions be known in simple fashion? They're his opinions, he doesn't need to explain them, he is entitled to them. This isn't a political debate regarding stem cell research that in turn controls transaction of millions ($$$), this is a basketball forum - if BCB wants to post alot and do so within short tirades, thats fine.There is a fine line between spam and posting briefly. Yes, BCB does spam a tad more than you'd like ("I'm leaving the board... Just Kidding!" "I have 10,000 posts!"), but most of the time he replies in acceptable fashion. For that, I deem the credit he receives...Worthy! :worthy:

    You're being an emo now. I don't believe I ever said you aren't a valuable user. You keep bbw moving. But again, you spam.And I don't have as many one liners as you do. I don't know where you got that from.

    Posting is like scoring. Sometimes your baskets look nice, sometimes they are easy, sometimes they are hard, and sometimes they dont look nice. (JK)

Sometimes they go in, sometimes they don't. When they don't go in they're called spam. BCB is like last year's Kobe Bryant.

    Exactly, which means he really ISN'T the MVP!

    No, you aren't a spammer. You make some good points, but some of your posts could be more detailed.

    There's the difference between BCB and a spammer.
