    Bumping threads is against the rules I thought?

    ... all you want, but for some to get warned and suspended and others to be completely overlooked is stupid. Be consistent and either allow it or don't, but picking and choosing is dumb

    No bumping threads from 6 season's ago is not allowed. This is a bump from a thread made this year grumpy....

    Only when you do it. (I was just kidding by the way.)

    Nate, Julius and I have different views on this subject. I personally have no problem with it and in fact think it's one of the nicer features of this forum. Forums like Oregonlive delete their old posts and in that forum when no one can ever call you on the BS you post it leads to more BS being posted.

    Nate and Julius say it just leads to more "I told you so" arguments, while I see where they're coming from I don't see it as a huge problem and should be judged on a bump by bump basis.

    That's not true. I think it's fun to look back on old threads, ideas and opinions. Where the problem happens is when someone uses a bump as a way to ridicule someone for a past opinion or idea they may have had.

    No one has ever been suspended for bumping an old thread at RipCityTwo.

    One of my favorite movies of all time. Can watch it over and over and over again. I thought it was fitting for the question because it fit perfectly. :D

    Re: Ok, the major players are now known for the 2013-2014 season.

    I'm not sure what you want. You seem to have a lot of complaints about me, how I moderate and my explanations about why I moderate the way I do. Let me try and explain my thoughts on this a little more clearly.

    If someone bumps an old thread and says, "Look how stupid ________ is, he wanted to trade Player X 2 years ago. Hahahaha, the idiot doesn't know anything about basketball." I would have a problem with that. IMO that is going to lead to insults and arguments and not basketball discussion.

    The "I told you so" bump depends on the I told you so'ing. "I told you guys the Blazers were going to be good." Seems like a good bump. "I told you _______ is a fucking idiot and doesn't know what they're talking about." is not a good bump.

    You know MM, it's not black and white. The mods don't get together and think of ways to pick on you. We try to keep this forum fun and feud free. We make mistakes but we try and learn from them.

    Maybe I should have attached some 100+ year old footage about a totally different time to show how oppressed I am?
