    Sorry but they were personal attacks.

    I also moved Maris' posts to the Kobe thread in the OT section.

    Let's keep this thread free from the BS.

    What he said was not a personal attack.

    I felt it was offensive but not against the rules.

    This steadfast no personal attack rule is kinda bullshit, man. Any response to the nonsense he posted was 100% warranted and you know it. You can prolly count on a single hand the number of times my posts have been deleted in like 34k+ times over 12 yrs. Moderation requires nuance-- you didn't exercise it here. Let his posts stay and let people see how despicable they were.

    Don't wanna derail the thread anymore, sorry.

    It just requires common sense, but oh well.

    This thread is about the passing of Kobe and 8 others, @MARIS61's posts were only going to distract from that. No, I don't recall you ever being a problem before in the forum. To leave his posts would have only derailed the thread. That's what he wanted.

    I was thinking today as I was driving that it would be cool if the NBA would suspend games for a day and hold a memorial service in the Staples Center for Kobe and allow all of the players in the NBA to attend. Maybe individual teams could allow former players to ride on the team plans to the service.

    What a power move

    You know nobody is making that thread FAMS

    You also know you agree with our boy illy here a little bit.

    I do too (a little bit; like I wouldn't have said the exact same thing) and was going to say something as well because that was certainly over the top for any individual, but I decided to bite my tongue lest I open up that pandoras box of fighting with people on here.

    Nah, Bones knows I love him but I've recently gotten a few PMs from him and others and he doesn't think too highly of me. I don't care if he or anyone makes a thread like that about me.

    I completely agree with all of you that Maris's post was f'd up. That said there was nothing about it that violated the rules of the forum. It sure as hell didn't think it belongs in this thread so I moved it to another active thread on the same subject in the OT section of the forum. As I've said to others in PMs even if they had expressed their displeasure with Maris' posts instead of insulting him I would have moved them instead of deleting them so we can keep this thread on a more referential tone.

    I know everyone is wondering what I think about this so I guess I'll just come out and say it. I think what you did was fair. You're all welcome.
