    So, it's OK to be an asshole, you just can't call another poster an asshole? Got it.

    If Nate McMillan registered on this forum, would half the board be banned immediately for calling him names?

    No. I have never complained for real to a mod. I had no problem with the thread title.

    I think you'd have to go the cop talk route and say "in my opinion" before you say anything to them

    Exactly!

    That is the problem. You can say whatever you want and be as rude or obnoxious about it as you want including using whatever language you want to use to get your point across.

    That attitude might bug some posters who then says something more mild in response but aimed at the poster . . . and apparently that is grounds for warning, suspension or being banned.

    Funny thought about having Nate join the board.

    Not sure who you are talking about, but it is really about the subject, and not the poster. Remember, without rules we are in a Lord of the Flies remake

    The way I look at it is if you say to someone "you are being an asshole" that's not really an insult but if you post "you are an asshole" I will change it to "SlyPokerDog is an asshole" so no one will be upset and you still get the pleasure of calling someone an asshole.

    In a desperate attempt to drag this back to basketball....

    Do people really believe that the KP and Cho situations have had no impact on the Blazers' (in)ability to find a new GM?

    I don't give a wet fart what rival fans think about the situation. I do care what basketball professionals think - those are the people you are trying to hire or do business with. An organization that is seen as petty and unprofessional will be at a disadvantage attracting the best people. When was the last time the Clippers were able to attract top talent for their FO and coaching staff? Conversely, SA has no trouble finding good people, even though they aren't exactly free-spenders.

    Probably the part where you're afraid of posters who disagree with you.

    You mean like this?

    NEWS FLASH! - Bryan, Texas-----Texas's worst air disaster occurred when a small two-seater Cessna 152 plane, piloted by two Texas A&M University students, crashed into a cemetery earlier today in College Station. Texas search and rescue workers have recovered 300 bodies so far and expect the number to climb as digging continues into the evening.

    That would make him the first Blazers coach to not be fired in their history.
